i really am anticipating This Is It, but the only reason that would stop me from watching it would be that it is too painful to watch, i couldn't even get through the trailer...
its like what clockwatcher said about seeing what could have been
i would like to watch that episode of Oprah but i don't think its going to be "fascinating" or anything like that, i think its just all speculation and her opinions about him which might be offensive..i think she has this idea that he is a pedophile b/c she was raped as a child so she's probably more sensitive with things like this

[LucasBunny]

The poor guy who messed up on the lean. Sad but kinda funny... lol... especially as he was in front.

The tribute was way too short and it's a shame that other artists didn't even remember Michael throughout the show. I didn't actually watch the show, lol... but I ran to my TV after hearing about what Kanye did (LMAO. Again, very pathetic of him but still kinda funny. LOL) and Russell Brand mentioned Michael. He seems like a fan even though I think those tattoos are fake.

I know some of you guys are watching Oprah this week, I'm not but I think you guys shouldn't expect too much. If what I read online is true, I think she's one of those who thinks he's a molester.

Yeah and I was scared Russell Brand was going to bad mouth MJ
but he mentioned him throughout.

Yeah I was a lil mad that no one even bothered to thank MJ or mention him but whatever.

About Oprah, to be honest I don't think she thought he was a pedo for many reasons
I think she just jumped the "lets call him jacko and crazy because he lets children into his bed"
bandwagon, also she and Janet are pretty cool and if she felt that way I highly doubt Janet would remain friends with her.

I don't care what Oprah has to say because she plucks my last nerves, but I wanna see behind the scenes of their interview and they might even air the part where Michael shows her his vitiligo so then people can STFU about him bleaching his skin.

You can call me crazy but the VMA's made me realise that there are no real artists anymore. So from this moment onwards I have ZERO interest in almost all the popular artists all the timberlakes,rihannas, britneys,etc.(I had little interest in them to begin with) save for a few occasional exceptions (i.e.George Michael or Alicia Keys and that also depends on their songs) and this thought makes me really SAD because I just realised that no one will ever be able to fill in the vaccuum left by MJ for me .....

I've been saying this for ages,
which is why I hate people like Wondergirls, Drake, SNSD, Lauren Conrad, New Boyz
because they are a disgrace to the music industry.
I grew up on talent like Tevin Campbell, TLC, Mary J Blige, SWV, George Michael, Al B Sure,
New Edition and of course the Jackson family. But the mainstream sucks with the exception of Alicia Keys and a few others which is why I listen to underrated artists.
But Michael's passing makes my hate for the music industry grow stronger because he worked so hard to expose his talent and he played it fair, it's not right that people are half assing their way to fame.

There are so many pictures on the internet showing the blotches. It's sad people ignore it just to make fun.

And this is why you matter.

Yeah but people are so stupid
infact him showing the blotches on him arm himself prolly wouldnt do any good.

Stupid people messing with Michael Jackson all the time
he honestly did not deserve that harassment.

BTW U know what I find funny, Michael is probably the most famous person on earth
I mean EVERYBODY knows who he is, this man makes people faint just from his presence yet he was always so down to earrth, friendly and never got full of himself...what I find funny is that people who's fame doesnt even compare to his have these nasty cocky arrogant attitudes. RLMAO

[MizJudge.d]

Aside from Madonna's speech ( too late Mad!), Janet's performance ( felt like it lasted for 10 secs) and the unfortunately hilarious Kayne stage mike grapping from Taylor the vma was bleh. Only thing to watch was really his this is it trailer, but that was a disappointment; seemed like random cliplets were edited together. oh well that's good for me til oct hehe.

Did he also have lupus? I remember people talking about it & I remember seeing him with red blotches on his face too. Very similar to my cousin who has it. I think he did, but I've never heard anyone confirm that.

Janet was a little stiff, but it still was one of the highlights of the night for me.

I was like 'awww' during Madonna's speech.

Janet was good. But when compared to Michael behind her, she was a little stiff. He really is the best.

I am so glad that Madonna made the effort to give her tribute. It made me tear when she spoke about the witch hunt. I was upset when she did not attend either the public memorial or the burial. I'm puzzled why Diana Ross or Liza Minelli didn't.

Liza was at the burial, I believe. Some people deal with loss in a different way, for some it might be too much to handle... or they just had to attend another event. It's all good. They all loved and/or respected him, so it's not really an issue.

[clockwatcher]

I guess this will be the new clip floating around about Michael concerning the drug stuff.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFtKai0yrCk

I don't know if he really doesn't remember how long he used the medication for or he's intentionally being evasive to win his case. Either way, he looks good but I feel sorry for him.

[Asianspirit]

^ MJ looked so good in that video...i dont really pay attention to what they were talking abt the medication coz i was concentrating on his face all the time lol...geez he looked awesomely hott,,,still missing him so much but i take comfort knowing MJ is in a better place resting peacefully....

[junsujunsu]

Wow, I think I'm ridiculously biased, even if he fell and the video was blurry he still looks beautiful to me...

I disagree, there are still many musical talents out there....Pink is great, Christina Auguilera is great, Britney Spears is great; none of these people "half-assed" their ways into the spot light, they give what they receive. Michael sacrificed a great deal, and therefore, received a great deal of appreciation from his fans at least. None of those are at the same level of MJ, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be appreciated.



"Lisa Marie Presley was supposed to be there although no one seemed to have caught her picture. Didn't hear that Liza Minelli was there though."

But i did hear Liza Minelli on ET saying that Michael did a lot of good and that nobody really knew how much good he had done.


I heard that Lisa marie was there, I also heard that Liza was there as well. If he did any more good than I know about, than he should also be coined KING OF CHARITY AND GOOD WILL

From your youtube link above, I watched the accident on youtube during Earth Song in Michael's Benefit Concert Munich 27.6.99 and read Karen Faye's write-up at http://www.mjfriendship.de/en/index.php?op...1&Itemid=55 .

So sad he had so many accidents and pain and medical problems during his life. It's devastating enough to have vitiligo. Must have been so devastating for the media to mislead the non-fans by not publizising this fact but instead hint that he was bleaching his skin to become white.

[clockwatcher]

Lisa Marie was there. I saw a picture of her with her daughter. If I find it, I'll edit the post.

lol... that didn't take long at all


Her daughter also attended Michael's memorial in July. I think she really liked him a lot. During an old interview (before he passed), she said she only had good memories of him.

This is one of the most convincing vitiligo pictures I've seen and it makes me sad. I wish I could find it in HQ, though.

[junsujunsu]

^ Why bother showing pics of him with Vitiligo? those who don't believe him, they don't matter...as long as he has us<3 I can't even begin to describe what the heck those people are missing, a lot of happiness,joy,sorrow, thrill, and many other emotions I have experienced was from him and through his music and performances, those who don't feel what Michael has brought to us, those who don't watch him, or listen to him, they are missing out on so much and it's definitely their lost. dasdasdagegasgasgaskjsdasudhasudhasudhasudhasckalscmaciep

I should stop commenting on this thread so much.

I know he looks really cute in the viedo

my poor Michael, I hate people for harassing him!
I was defensive of Michael since I was a lil girl, I hated when people imitated him and FAILED!
I hated when kids in my class called him a child molestor, I used to read them so well.

Yes, honey me too. I used to give the other kids a quick read whenever they tried to throw shade. They didn't want it with me.

Yaeeepp

I was like "STFU"
I also got very jealous of just about any female who played Michael's love interest in his videos
(except Iman she's too awesome)

Michael and his nephews 3T





I wish 3t stayed around longer
they had superb vocals and crazy harmony...it really runs in the family lol.

Solo Michael

RAWR SEXY!!!


so beautiful

WHAT A SMILE!

I my heart skips a beat each time I see this scene BTW Janet also does that move in the "Pleasure Principal" video


IN YOUR FACE! to the fool who says Michael was scared of sex
you just mad cuz you can't move like that HAHAHA

LOVELY EYES

[novi4ok]

^His eyes are really expressive, you can see when he's hurt (like in the Diane Sawyer interview), happy and so on like in the child's eyes and there's always this kind of sincerity in them? don't know how to put that, but then there's that tinge of sadness in them too...

Thanks. Her daughter has great taste.

Thanks for all the photos and the so-true comments, LucasBunny.

I luv his smile and his eyes. And he's so sexy, I can't understand why some people persist in labelling him gay.

[clockwatcher]

So, I probably wondered aloud in this thread about how in the world Michael started using Propofol and after reading this article, it appears that his use of it to fight insomnia is actually not that unsual after all - regardless of what they say in the press. Yes, it was dangerous but I think a doctor must have recommended it to him.

From this article reading in 2007 about propofol addiction
http://www.anesthesiologynews.com/index.as...article_id=7579

In his experience, Dr. Manejwala said, nearly every propofol addict started injecting to overcome persistent insomnia.

And we know Michael didn't self inject - he hired a doctor to take care of him.

Sorry for bringing this up. LOL. I actually find this drug crap really annoying to hear about but I found this interesting.
