View Full Version : Michael Jackson Dead at 50

Yeah...I wonder how much money his albums have made just since his death.
IF he was working on album and they release, and of course we all know he was, whether it's been announced or not, it will probably outsell Thriller, in fact that's the probably the only way to outsell Thriller.
We're only talking probably close to a billion dollars, to a guy hundreds of millions of dolllars in debt, and heavens knows, no one ever tries to fake their own death, it only happens in movies.
The guy only called himself Peter Pan and lived in a place called never never land...obviously, he had every intention of growing old like the rest of us. And hey, that's what all the iconic stars do.
Sorry, but he is definitely capable of attempting something like this...
Guy wanted the normal life he never had as well...there was no way he was ever going to get it as Michael Jackson.
Again, I don't know that he did it, but to say he didn't have plenty of reasons to do it, not to mention the ego to attempt it, is pretty much putting yourself in total denial.

I've read over the cases several times and I've never seen anything that screams "guilty". You would think that one of these would be true:
1. Other people at the ranch could collaborate witness testimony
2. There would be one shred of physical evidence
3. The accuser or the accuser's parent(s) wouldn't be a nutjob
4. The accuser wouldn't have been mouthpiece for parent(s)
How does a child molesteing case of a high-profile person that is around 20-30 people a day personally not produce one piece of evidence? ONE? DNA/blood/semen/soiled undergarments/eye-witness/anything. Every time some kid made up a story it conflicted with someone elses. You know, a solid case doesn't work like that. People have alibis that match up, people collaborate and don't change their story, there is actual evidence other than heresay, so on and so on.
The piece of crap that accused is living in some $2 million dollar house under a difference name. Amazing. Just amazing.
A case that gets messed up looks like the OJ Simpson trial. You know, actual evidence and facts. R.I.P. MJ, he doesn't deserve the accusations that continue to this day. Yeah he did some messed up stuff with drugs and the baby and stuff, but at least that's real and not some obvious money-grabbing make-believe story concocted while your father put you under the influence of a drug used in WW2 to keep soliders fighting in a hypnotic trance.

I'm not sure whether on not MJ did fake his ownn death or not. But I do think that it is possible. I mean c'mon. Every store I went into this weekend were out of anything and everything MJ related. Now multiply that times 50, plus factor in the same thing happening worldwide. That would be MORE than enough to pay off his debts, and probably buy himself a remote island somewhere never to be seen again.
Oh and to the person who said that we will know for sure if he is dead or not because we will start hearing unreleased stuff all of the sudden, that doesn't really mean much. Artist sometimes have tons of unreleased stuff come out after they die. You have to remember that they spend half of their life in the studio. Ex:Tupac and Biggie.

I was being sarcastic. That's the reason I've heard that there's no way 2pac is dead, because he's releasing new albums all the time. Like I said earlier, I think it's very possible for Michael to have faked his own death.

This report from the Sun is scary, I don't know if it's true or not, but damn:
http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00834/jacko-280_834607j.jpg
THE horrifying state of pop superstar Michael Jackson in his final days can be revealed by The Sun today.
Harrowing leaked autopsy details show the singer was a virtual skeleton — barely eating and with only pills in his stomach at the time he died.
His hips, thighs and shoulders were riddled with needle wounds — believed to be the result of injections of narcotic painkillers, given three times a day for years.
And a mass of surgery scars were thought to be the legacy of at least 13 cosmetic operations.
Experts found the distressing evidence of Jacko’s physical decline while investigating his startling death in Los Angeles last week.The examination showed the 5ft 10in star — once famed for his on-stage athleticism — had:
PLUNGED to a “severely emaciated” 8st 1oz. It is understood anorexic Jackson had been eating just one meagre meal a day.
Pathologists found his stomach empty aside from partially-dissolved pills he took before the painkiller injection which stopped his heart. Samples were sent for toxicology tests.
LOST virtually all his hair. The pop pin-up was wearing a wig when he died and pathologists said little more than “peach fuzz” covered his scalp.
A scarred section of skin above his left ear was entirely bald — apparently the result of a 1984 accident when his hair caught fire as he filmed an ad for Pepsi.
SUFFERED several broken ribs as frantic rescuers pumped his chest after he collapsed in cardiac arrest. Four injection sites were found above or near to Jacko’s heart.
All appeared to result from attempts to pump adrenaline directly into the organ in a failed bit to restart it.
Three of the injections had penetrated the heart wall — causing damage — but a fourth missed and hit one of the 50-year-old star’s ribs.
The autopsy also found unexplained BRUISING on Jackson’s knees and on the fronts of both shins. And there were CUTS on his back, indicating a recent fall.
The King of Pop’s once handsome face bore a network of plastic surgery scars, while the bridge to his nose had vanished and its right side had partially collapsed.
As inquiries into the tragedy last night focused on the star’s personal physician Dr Conrad Murray, a source close to the Jackson entourage said: “Michael’s family and fans will be horrified when they realise the appalling state he was in.
“He was skin and bone, his hair had fallen out and had been eating nothing but pills when he died. Injection marks all over his body and the disfigurement caused by years of plastic surgery show he’d been in terminal decline for years.
“His doctors and the hangers-on stood by as he self-destructed. Somebody is going to have to pay.”
Cardiologist Dr Murray was thought to have given Jackson the final injection of painkiller Demerol.
He is facing serious questions about his resuscitation attempts, which began when he started CPR as Jacko lay unconscious on a bed. Basic first aid guidance says patients must be face-up on a hard surface before compressions.

Experts yesterday expressed amazement that a trained cardiologist could have made such an error, potentially wasting vital minutes.
Additional damage was believed to have been caused by oxygen masks and tubing inserted during resuscitation attempts. But in an ironic twist, the probe found Jacko was recovering well from skin cancer — with an op to shave cells from his chest a total success.
A second autopsy demanded by the Jackson family was carried out at a secret location on Saturday after the first ruled out foul play.
Family friend Rev Jesse Jackson said the family were deeply suspicious about what caused his death.
Dr Murray was hired just 11 days ago by AEG Live — the firm masterminding Jacko’s 50-date residency at London’s O2 Arena, which was due to start next month.
Sources claimed the family were preparing a multi-million-dollar lawsuit against the cardiologist.
Detectives were unable to find the doctor at Jackson’s home and his car was taken away for analysis as police sought him for questioning. He surfaced late on Friday and was quizzed over the weekend.
The Sun told on Saturday how Jacko had developed stage fright for the first time and was terrified of performing the comeback gigs.
Aides claimed the ailing star even believed he would be KILLED if he pulled out on health grounds. We also revealed he was taking a potentially toxic cocktail of drugs.
Sources last night said prescriptions for drugs for patients other than Jacko were found at his home. Those patients were due to be quizzed.

Oh and I agree adult Mike was a fantastic dancer and better dancer than he was a singer, but little kid Mike was a way better singer, and his singing as a kid was probably the most talented thing he ever did. He was an insanely good singer for a kid. Adult Mike could never sing as good as little kid Mike. You could just give little kid Mike a song and it would be a #1 hit, nothing else was needed.

I bet the entire 3 years Mike was married to Elvis Presley's daughter, that whole Elvis faking his death and them managing his estate into becoming worth more than when he was alive, was something that never entered his mind a single time. Because Mike never thought about shit like that...probably didn't even know who Elvis was or that he allegedly faked his death and that his estate, where incidentally he was buried, was now a virtual theme park. Mike probably never even thought about an estate and theme park being combined...his mind just didn't work that way.

-- Michael Jackson's three biggest albums -- "Thriller," "Bad" and "Dangerous" -- each produced 7 top 40 hits.
-- Michael Jackson was the 7th of 9 children.
-- Michael Jackson was born in 1958 ... 19 + 58 = 77
-- Michael Jackson died on the 25th ... 2 + 5 = 7

It looks like a scandalous tell-all book about Michael Jackson is going to be released, and it covers everthing from his sexuality to his drug use, according to In Touch Weekly.
Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson by Ian Halperin is due out later this month, and one of the most shocking claims is that Michael wasn't a pedophile that liked to have sex with boys, but rather, the late pop icon preferred sleeping with men! An inside source who has read the book tells the mag that Jackson once picked up a construction worker in Las Vegas, and the two "regularly met at a motel. Michael would dress up as a woman. The lover admitted Michael made him sign a confidentiality agreement."
Due to Michael’s purported homosexuality, Halperin claims that he never had sex with his second wife, Debbie Rowe, so he couldn’t possibly have fathered their children, Prince, 12, and Paris, 11. "None of Jackson’s three kids are his biological children,” the insider continues. "It was the worst-kept secret in Hollywood. But nobody dared bring it up to him. It was taboo.”
It was also taboo to confront Michael about his growing addiction to prescription pills. The book alleges that in March of 2009, the singer had taken so many drugs before a London press conference, that he was barely able to make an appearance. “He did a huge round of painkillers and injections before he arrived,” the insider reveals. “He was 90 minutes late and blamed his tardiness on traffic. It was a complete fabrication.”
According to ITW, the book claims that Michael was innocent of the molestation charges and that he was "a victim of extortion. This is what led to the heavy drug abuse and everything that followed.”

Sources tell X17online that the Jackson family is still hoping for a permit from Santa Barbara county to allow them to bury Michael at Neverland. In order to bury Jackson on the property, the family would need to get permission from local land-use officials and submit an application and paperwork with the state Cemetery and Funeral Bureau. The state application would then need to be approved by the funeral board, a process that could take anywhere from seven to 30 days.
Though we're sure the Jacksons could pull a few strings to expedite the process, Thomas Barrack, the co-owner of Neverland, supposedly sought an exemption to bury the singer at the ranch, and it's unclear whether or not he's willing to change his mind.
If Michael is buried at Neverland, it would essentially become the modern-day Graceland, and many believe it's the only logical place to bury the pop legend. I mean, could the Jackson family REALLY bury Michael at Forest Lawn? Think of all the families who have loved ones at that cemetery - wouldn't it turn the cemetery into a shrine for the king of pop and overwhelm the infrastructure there? And then there's the whole security issue too...
Maybe the fans should vote? Neverland makes so much sense, and we get the impression Michael would want to be buried there...

In late December 2008, Ian Halperin told the world that Michael Jackson had only six months to live. His investigations into Jackson’s failing health made headlines around the globe. Six months later, the King of Pop was dead.
Don't know if that's true or not.. but :wow if it is.

Reading up on it, Halperin commented on the timing of the book: "I timed it because I knew around this time he was a candidate to die. I'm being totally up-front about that."
However, his publisher says this, "Halperin’s book was originally timed for the widely hyped London concerts that Jackson was scheduled to perform in London next month." Pierre Turgeon, president of Transit Publishing.

I hope people finally let the guy rest in peace...36 charities he was financially involved with..more than any other pop star...he gave and gave until he was in debt...gay, straight..I don't care. Everything about the guy just screamed "I want to help the world." You have to respect that.
