This is a dude who wanted to die.

His hips, thighs and shoulders were covered with needle wounds, believed to have come from shots of painkillers, and he was wearing a wig when he was found because his hair had been reduced to a "peach fuzz" on his scalp, the report said.

"He was skin and bone, his hair had fallen out, and he had been eating nothing but pills when he died," a source close to the singer's entourage told the paper.

I want to know who's been raising them up to this point. No way in hell do I believe MJ was doing it himself. I think the nanny, the tutor, and the chef probably ought to get custody.

I was only surprised it wasn't due to a glich in his hyperbaric chamber.

Pooka · 06-29-2009, 06:28 PM

And... considering he had ownership of the elephant man's remains I wonder what his plans are for his own?

Jesus, fog of war over this?

This is starting to piss me off.

People didn't rave and rave him before his death. Hell, most people made fun of him for being a convicted pedophile and being made of plastic!

Then, BOOM! All the sudden, without notice, he dies!

Now everyone is acting like they "were fans from the beginning" and have always loved him.

Not that I care, but to be accurate, he was acquitted, not convicted.

Not me.
Same as when Diana died.

The grief bandwagon doesn't seem to stop at my house.
Or maybe just that I don't trust the red tops to accurately portray my opinion.

This guy makes it clear how good Jackson was.

What....no? Really? London's The Sun newspaper printing inaccuracies and lies? Surely some mistake.

One less creepy weirdo in the world. Less tabloid fodder. Good riddance.

sugarpop · 07-02-2009, 09:41 PM

Personally I could care less. Not really a fan, and everyone dies eventually. He changed music, and he changed dancing, and I know a lot of people are saddened. Frankly, I'm sick to death of hearing about it. Even the fucking NEWS networks are playing MJ nonstop. WTF. Like there isn't any other news happening in the world? It just goes to show what a bunch of morons we are in this country, when a freaking celebrity becomes more important than world events.

Aliantha · 07-02-2009, 09:48 PM

it's not just the US. The same is happening here. I don't know if it's just because he was a celebrity though.

He's a man the world watched grow up. He's someone whose life was almost always mixed up and controversial. He's someone many people see as a hero (for a number of reasons aside from his music). He's a person many could relate to. He's someone individual who achieved greatness in his chosen field against the odds purely through his talent. He was a person many people felt they knew.

There aren't many people who walk the earth and influence or affect so many people one way or another. Whether you like it or not, his passing is big news to the world.
