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.

How gross.
He was a cute little kid. Such a twisted shame.

I remember a joke from back then.

Michael Jackson and Richard Pryor are going to start a new program. It will be called the Ignited Negro College Fund.

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.

Michael Jackson's grim autopsy [...]

That's strange; most of the autopsies I've participated in were laugh-a-minute affairs, with good times for all.

Regards,

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).

He was an enormously talented individual who tried too hard to hold onto fame and glory. And instead of growing older gracefully he tried to remain a child forever.

We were deprived of some spectacular music, because an older Michael Jackson refused to come out.

Obviously, Jacko is an extreme case, perhaps the most extreme case ever, but he’s a cautionary tale, nonetheless, for all the stage parents who dream of turning their kids into singing and dancing sensations.

Jackson is believed to have first started wearing a wig after his hair caught fire during filming for a 1984 Pepsi commercial, leaving him with second and third degree burns.

I remember seeing a comedy bit (it might have been SNL) reporting on the phenomena of Black entertainers bursting into flames. They cited Michael Jackson and Richard Pryor as recent examples, and warned that if Nell Carter caught fire, she would take most of the city with her.

MJ was pure satanic evil - a homosexual pedophile who inflicted immeasurable damage on so many young boys.

He’s rotting & burning in hell...and deservedly so.

Do they think it is a slow news day? The guy has been dead for over a decade. He is sort of irrelevant now...
