I don’t call someone claiming he will die in a set period of time and then engaging in activities to hasten that death to be prophetic.

Just read this article @ Drudge. I’m convinced more than ever that Jacko had AIDS or at the least HIV.

I just saw a short clip of Jackson on the news tonight. They didn’t tell when it was taken but Jackson looked like hell. I don’t think he would have completed the 50 concerts either. He was definitely living on borrowed time.

Whatever the final autopsy results reveal, it was greed that killed Michael Jackson. Had he not been driven – by a cabal of bankers, agents, doctors and advisers – to commit to the gruelling 50 concerts in London’s O2 Arena, I believe he would still be alive today.

During the last weeks and months of his life, Jackson made desperate attempts to prepare for the concert series scheduled for next month – a series that would have earned millions for the singer and his entourage, but which he could never have completed, not mentally, and not physically.

Michael knew it and his advisers knew it. Anyone who caught even a fleeting glimpse of the frail old man hiding beneath the costumes and cosmetics would have understood that the London tour was madness.

For Michael Jackson, it was fatal. I had more than a glimpse of the real Michael; as an award-winning freelance journalist and film-maker, I spent more than five years inside his ‘camp’.

Many in his entourage spoke frankly to me – and that made it possible for me to write authoritatively last December that Michael had six months to live, a claim that, at the time, his official spokesman, Dr Tohme Tohme, called a ‘complete fabrication’.

The singer, he told the world, was in ‘fine health’. Six months and one day later, Jackson was dead. Some liked to snigger at his public image, and it is true that flamboyant clothes and bizarre make-up made for a comic grotesque; yet without them, his appearance was distressing; with skin blemishes, thinning hair and discoloured fingernails.

I had established beyond doubt, for example, that Jackson relied on an extensive collection of wigs to hide his greying hair. Shorn of their luxuriance, the Peter Pan of Neverland cut a skeletal figure.

There has been so much conflicting information out there...I heard that he was singing and dancing as good as he did when he was 20...it’s amazing. I tend to believe this. It’s also curious how SO many people knew...but nobody tried to do anything. Now, I know personally how hard it is to get someone emeshed in addiction to do anything about it, but you’d think someone..somehow would have leaked something to the press...oh well...

Source: Autopsy Reveals
Healthy Jackson

(MYFOX NATIONAL) - A source familiar with Michael Jackson’s autopsy at the Los Angeles County Coroner revealed that investigators were surprised that the pop star was healthy.

The source revealed to Fox News that Jackson appeared to be stronger than they expected. There were bruises on his chest, which indicated someone had performed CPR on him, but there was no sign of a heart attack, which is when arteries are blocked, leading to cardiac arrest.

I guess the cocktail of drugs he was taken had nothing to do with it, huh?

The media is trying to "obamacize" jacko to make us all think he was working so hard on a concert...just for us, the little people.

Well, if you're bombed on all those pills he's taking, it would be a wonder if you could even stand, not to mention sing and dance.

So he "predicted" he was going to die six months ago...yeah...right. He was just so bombed he thought dying would be better.

There are people out there who actually believe this pervert had mystical powers to predict his own death...with a populace this stupid, no wonder commiebama was elected...same mentality.

Wonder if we're going to get the Michael sightings for the next 30 years, just as we've gotten the Elvis sightings for the last 30?

You get the feeling that some of these guys just want to disappear so they can live a normal life again. Not saying that Elvis and MJ aren't dead, but the temptation to fake a death has got to be there for some celebs.

"The singer, he told the world, was in ‘fine health’

I'm sure he was. But, like the majority of Holliwierdo's, his addiction to opiates killed him.

You got to wonder about that "personal physician" of his. You'd think he would have known that you don't juice someone up with alot of Demerol or morphine when they already have a bad Oxycontin habit. You'd also think this "doctor" (person with a legal prescription pad) would have had other drugs on hand just in case considering he was well aware of Wacko Jacko's long time addiction since he was the person signing the prescriptions.

Oh well, no loss in either case, although you'd never know it if you turned on the TV. Hollywierd sure loves it's drug addicted pedophiles, eccentric nutcases.

Good article.

Sounds like he sold his soul to the devil to me.

‘He wasn’t eating, he wasn’t sleeping and, when he did sleep, he had nightmares that he was going to be murdered. “

And I think we may just find this to be (intentionally) so.

How about this for speculation ?

Jackson was deeply in debt by hunderds of millions that could never be repaid.

Jackson was not heathly enough to do the concerts which would have bombed.

The solution is to have him killed. The insurance pays off the concert. The value of his stuff and songs increase by hundreds of millions. And all is well except that a tortured soul is prematurely dead which may be better anyway.

Maybe they even figured he would rather be remembered as a tragic icon rather than an old withered man.

I had always thought his plan for a comeback — even 10 shows, let alone 50 — was unrealistic. Given his age and the changing music tastes, there was no way he could pretend 15 years got up and walked out the door. He was well into middle age, trying desperately to pass for 20.

This whole debacle just shows how sadly removed MJ was from the outside world. He had retreated into a house of mirrors, surrounded by users. I always guessed the comeback tour was a desperate attempt to recoup his finances, as well as his reputation. Shorn of his superstar status, he was truly lost.

His death was a sad end to a disasterous life. He would have been better off investing his wealth earlier in his life rather than building his private amusement park.

At least his death means he won’t have a bad final concert like Elvis.
