Wow, it's been a bad week for Michael Jackson...

I just read in the newspaper that Pepsi has been forced to fire Jackson...

Yeah, they caught him suckin' on a Squirt!!...LOL

[slimer]

Michael Jackson: I HAVE ANTRHAX??

No, you are a paranoid delusional child molesting hypochondriac and you have severe case of mental illness.

Now leave your monkey alone and go feed your llamas.

"no-talent child molester"

I thought I was the only one with that opinion.

[Snow Bunny]

Child molester and total sicko , I honeslty could care less what he is sick from he is already a sicko.

[dixiemelody]

What a complete FREAK!!! I know those kids aren't his, but do they really live with him? Someone has to help those kids if they live with him...I mean how can any of his entourage allow children to live with a freak child molester??????

You are one sick puppy!

[Fraulein]

Does Jackson qualify for the Darwin Award?

[poweqi]

Only in America can a poor black boy grow up to be a rich white woman!

[RANGERAIRBORNE]

Not quite as funny now, is it? What's their NEXT album going to be called- "SMALLPOX"?

Hey, just so long as some dumbass American teenager will buy it, it's like, cool, ya know???

[steamroller]

This creature's last good song was "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus"when he was a kid.Since then he has undergone a serious mental degeneration and a strange physical transformation.Howard Hughes used to collect jars of his own urine and fingernail clippings-yech!!Some people can't deal with fame.

Here's another one (pretty bad)....Q: What do Michael Jackson & Willie Schoemaker have in common? A:They've both ridden 3-year-olds. (Hey,I didn't make it up!)

[Kiwigal]

Am I the only one who noticed the source of this "interview"?

I noticed too. Which makes me think, when you read this:

Jackson: Yes. I'm taking medication myself. Because-I don't know if I should say this-I'm very sick.

NoW: You're coughing a lot. Do you have the flu?

which of the following options applies: (1) the interview is a hoax, or (2) Uri Geller has Anthrax?

[Blue Eyes]

He'd better also get his refrigerator tested for salmonella. I hear it's being sent to want-to-be-in-the-news-too pop icons. [snicker]

Okay. I know something I guess not many FReepers know about Michael Jackson.

My husband noticed a weird-looking white circle around a freckle on my shoulder. (I'm white, by the way.) He ran me right to the doctor. My doctor said I had Michael Jackson's disease, and I thought he was kidding. Nope. Michael Jackson and I have vitilago, an autoimmune disorder in which the body attacks its own pigment cells. A biopsy confirmed the diagnosis.

It's pretty harmless for me, a Caucasian, but it was probably quite a shock for MJ to find himself turning white as his pigment cells began to disappear. It probably started on one hand--hence the "one glove" phase he went through. At some point he was probably quite "freckled" or piebald in appearance, and that is probably when he elected to have the remaining skin bleached at the dermatologist's, where he met his brood-mare wife. It would be far easier to end up with a half-way even-looking result with bleaching of the pigmented skin than by trying to do anything with the cancer-prone vitilago-affected regions.

Vitilago has no real ill effects except that affected areas have a very highly increased rate of skin cancer. I have to keep the areas of my body that have gone Victorian-white completely out of the sun, and I'm much more careful about using sunscreen on the rest of me. (Because of lupus, I stay out of the direct sun anyway, but even indirect UV rays can be a problem with vitilago.) Anyway, that would explain the hats, the scarves, the head-to-toe covering MJ uses when he's out in public during the daylight hours.

I have no idea why his kids are so light--but--one of my sisters-in-law is married to a black guy, and their first kid is dusky skinned with blonde hair and green eyes. The other two are darker. It's just a matter of how genes are expressed, and it's pretty much meaningless. If you look at the features of his children, I think you can see a little of the original, out-of-the-box pop star in them.

My best friend is a black lady and I thought she was going to literally fall on the floor laughing when I told her I have Michael Jackson's disease. "What, are you going to turn white???"

I'm not saying he's not bizarre, but to a certain extent, at least with the appearance issue, he has cause.

OMG, we had no idea.

Come out of the closet TG. We know you're on his fan club alert list. :)

LOL Chemmy, you always seem to make me grin.

[mafree]

C'mon you guys give Jacko a break- at least he's a black man trying to raise his kids himself and be a good father (/sarcasm in his case).

That would only apply if he were still black and still a man.
