The couple met each other through Michael Jackson.

Now if that doesn't ring alarm bells, I don't know what will. Actually, let me rephrase that...

They got together because Michael Jackson thought it was a good idea.

* The same Michael Jackson who thought marrying Lisa Marie Presley and then his plastic surgeon's nurse was a good idea
* The same Michael Jackson who thought telling the world he slept in the same bed as Macaulay Culkin was a good idea
* The same Michael Jackson who thought dangling his baby off a balcony was a good idea
* The same Michael Jackson who thought going from looking like a perfectly normal looking black man to... uhhh... whatever he's supposed to be in that wedding photo... was a good idea
* The same Michael Jackson who thought taking his pet chimp Bubbles along when he saw Ronald Raegan was a good idea
* The same Michael Jackson who thought sleeping in an ozygen tent was a good idea
* The same Michael Jackson who decided calling his boss a "devillish" "racist" on national TV was a good idea
* The same Michael Jackson who was surprised when his $20m joke of an album made only $5m - with his few loyal fans buying multiple copies - thought blaming it on Sony was a good idea
* The same Michael Jackson who thought spending a fortune of between $300m - $500m on a private theme park, plastic surgery, and paedophilia lawsuits was a good idea
* The same Michael Jackson who allowed Martin Bashir to make a documentary about him and was surprised when - after spending half a year around Jackson - Bashir concluded that Jackson was some kind of wacko paedophile fruitcake
*The same Michael Jackson who thinks it's a good idea to tell everyone about the big media conspiracy against him to make him look "weird" and "strange"
*The same Michael Jackson who... well, you get the general idea...

In other words, this guy has not had a good idea since about 1987.I'm surprised this marriage lasted as long as it did...
