One strange, talented, screwed up person.
If ever there was a case to be used as an example of keeping your kids normal and away from the limelight, it was this one. Started out as such a cute little boy, ended up as a disgraced, depraved, freak of an adult. And dead.
Poor Michael. So enormously talented, so crazy. I still watch his Smooth Criminal video on youtube once in awhile. An homage to Fred Astaire’s earlier version. Ballet great Baryshnikov called Jackson the greatest dancer who ever lived.
Attention, adulation and excess money do strange things to people.
How gross.
He was a cute little kid. Such a twisted shame.
Michael Jackson and Richard Pryor are going to start a new program. It will be called the Ignited Negro College Fund.
LOL

He started out as a cute black boy,
He died as an ugly white woman.
errr....your basic mental case with a penchant for pedophilia.
Incredibly talented man who did a lot of harm to himself and, if reports are true, to young boys. I’ll still listen to his music, just as I’ll continue to watch Roman Polanski’s “Chinatown”. Deeply flawed people who should have been imprisoned for their crimes, but also great artists.
I grew up with the Jackson Five. Loved them. Just awful to see Michael go off the deep end. Very sad.
That's strange; most of the autopsies I've participated in were laugh-a-minute affairs, with good times for all.

Ray Bolger, the scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz who danced every day of his life to keep limber, also said Michael Jackson was the greatest dancer who ever lived. I think Jackson’s dancing was even better than his singing and his music. Amazing and a very hard worker too.
Matthew 16:26
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
I guess we know part of the cost. Pretty sad!
It’s very sad that someone who was so private has all his private health information laid out before the world after his death. It’s really isn’t anyone’s business that he tattooed his lips and wore a wig. Sheesh. The world needs to let him rest in peace (fan of his talent, not a fan of him).
It takes a very strong person to resist all that is iffered.
Hair gel?
My father used Vitalis at one time. I squirted some into the [burning] fireplace, and it was inflammable.
