    What’s so crazy to me is how the media acts like MJ is wrong for wanting privacy? I feel for Michael. Nothing he’s saying is unreasonable. It’s unreasonable that everyone thought they could infringe upon his privacy and his rights. If you love Michael, then respect him!

      @@Dis2good I'm an MJ fan so of course I wouldn't tease him about his looks, but I understand why people did. It's not about him turning white due to vitiligo. It's about the amount of plastic surgery that he had. He still looked fine during the Bad era when his skin turned completely white. After Bad his appearance started getting worse and worse because of him having so many surgeries. He should have left himself the way he was after Bad if vitiligo was his main issue. He obviously had other issues as well like probably body dysmorphic disorder.

      yes he was, but he was VERY eccentric and did bizarre things, like dangling his baby over a balcony. Had that baby fallen he would've been deeply upset and distressed, so some things he did were a bit whacky. But then again, who could blame him with the upbringing he had. Essentially he was a child in a man's body hence why he had sleepovers with children (which in my eyes, were wholly innocent).

    He got destroyed by the media, the tabloids. He deserved so much better in his life. So many negative false rumours about him are in the media but he stayed with his message to make this world a better place for every living being. I hope he realize how much we love and miss him. He was for sure one of a kind. He was deeply misunderstood. I can't even imagine the pain and loneliness he felt during his life.

    The thing that I've never liked about journalists interviewing Michael is that they never ever listen to him with empathy. He is being emotional and opens a bit and they cut him and go for what is more interesting for their story line. This man was such a good hearted person, not mentioning priceless and unique talent no one can ever compare to or come close to. He was treated so badly, good heart like that being among showbiz people where most of them look only for their profit, money and interest, it's no surprise he felt constantly deeply sad and lonely no matter money and fame. His soul was hurt all the time. Too good for this cruel world, but his legacy remains forever as our love for him in our hearts.

She really tried to get to him but didn't succeed because he handled it so well and remained calm and respectful throughout the whole interview. I Especially loved when he fired her question back to her "maybe you should come up with a plan to help me", so cleaver, sassy and straight forward but still so calm and collected! This man knew how to handle people!
    I hate that he had to answer such stupid questions and sit and listen to her while she offended him and had so little respect towards him but I'm glad that he could get a chance to speak up and handle it so perfectly well!

I hate the FBI & media back then! He was the Good Samaritan yet he was Betrayed by Judas' people! Michael was too nice yet most bullied! He wasn’t perfect but tried to fulfill what God in heaven has called him to do! He used his platform to help and give hope! His music has messages & statements which I think made him become their target (Evil-possessed people). He break the wall of cultural racism, exposed nasty systems, the biased media, love over violence, take care of the planet, hope for the children etc. This is his music & music videos they were allergic to! MJ suffered from being beaten child to adulthood persecution! He missed his childhood! They used his LOVE for children, his surgery looks & spiritual beliefs to ruin him! He was tormented as a human being! The world is cruel! Well, his music, dance moves, and charity lives! He is the greatest entertainer, Philanthropist, and Humanitarian!

I hate the FBI & media back then! He was the Good Samaritan yet he was Betrayed by Judas' people! Michael was too nice yet most bullied! He wasn’t perfect but tried to fulfill what God in heaven has called him to do! He used his platform to help and give hope! His music has messages & statements which I think made him become their target (Evil-possessed people). He break the wall of cultural racism, exposed nasty systems, the biased media, love over violence, take care of the planet, hope for the children etc. This is his music & music videos they were allergic to! MJ suffered from being beaten child to adulthood persecution! He missed his childhood! They used his LOVE for children, his surgery looks & spiritual beliefs to ruin him! He was tormented as a human being! The world is cruel! Well, his music, dance moves, and charity lives! He is the greatest entertainer, Philanthropist, and Humanitarian! I thank MJ for spending time & money on sick kids in my country back then! I give thanks to God in heaven for creating a masterpiece Michael Jackson!

    He really isn’t all that odd in style honestly . He is definitely unique and original but I think it was his light , his aura , his genuine magnetism that drew everyone’s attention and curiosity. There are people out there that have this , they exist in daily life and aren’t mega “superstars “ yet they are stars as well..just not in the public eye like mj was . But they get a lot of attention as well by just existing . People may tell them , they could be famous or they look like some celebrity etc . But they maybe don’t take that path . But anyway it’s like when you look at him , he is really dapper and dashing , yes flashy at times but he is just regal in his style . He wasn’t exposing his body or where a bunch of jewelry and chains , so it’s not like he is asking for attention. Of course if he is going to be in the public eye he may want to look his best in his own taste and expression . He usually wears suits and dress shoes etc but I’ve seen when it’s like a show or award thing his is super royal from like another world lol so what ? Like he literally was walking around in a blazer , dress pants and a fedora . Wth is eccentric about that ? Lol they just were so marveled by his energy they found everything to pick at to justify why he stood out . He was just being himself . His originality was iconic . People were doing too much man . Smh .

Kind caring, incredibly intellectual and I enjoyed the conversation we had. We both had a mutual passion for the movie industry and special effects. I say this to the world, if you knew the real Michael you would totally know he was innocent of the accusations leveled at him.

    Seeing all these interwiers treating him this way... tears me apart. He was truly one of a kind and the world won't ever have someone like him again.
