Michael Jackson News / Re: Posted yesterday on YouTube (re: Sneddon)!

« on: July 04, 2010, 03:37:12 PM »

My son had a small spot of vitiligo developing on his chin when he was in first grade.  We thought it was an allergic reaction from the acid in sodas and/or orange juice.  The small spot got bigger and lighter until it was the size of a thumbprint.  I decided to take him to his pediatrician and he referred us to a dermatologist.

When the doctor started talking about taking skin from different parts of my son's body to cover the loss of pigmentation on his chin, I did what most mothers do when they receive unpleasant news about their children.  Yes, I fainted and fell on the floor.  When I woke up, I was the one on the examination table and my son was sitting in a chair next to me holding my hand.  My son and the doctor were both smiling.  I guess I must have hit the floor pretty darn hard, huh?  

Anyway, the doctor prescribed some cream for my son to be applied daily.  He also instructed us to give him one adult vitamin per day and to make sure he receives plenty of sun.  Did I ever think of Michael Jackson when I looked at the vitiligo on my son's face?  Yes, a few times because people kept referencing it to Michael Jackson; they didn't know the correct medical term.  During that time, Michael Jackson was on the news everyday anyway because he was fighting for his freedom in 2005.

To make a long story short, God is always watching over his children.  The vitiligo on my son's face disappeared and so did the disgusting charges against Michael Jackson, because he was found not guilty.

I really don't want to speak on this subject, but since it's posted, I will comment on Elvis.  I'll keep it short because it's too much to write.

Back in 1996, I was sitting in class and a classmate came and sat next to me.  Guess who she started talking about?  Yes, Elvis Presley.  Of course I looked at her strange when she told me that Elvis wasn't dead.  She said that he faked his death.  Why?  Because he wanted to live a normal life.  Do you blame him?  She told me that I should ask two well-known African American men (politicians) who went to visit Elvis at the hospital.  Yeah, like they would admit to Elvis being alive. :lol:

She also mentioned Tupac Shakur.  She said that he is definitely dead.  He was murdered because he was becoming too much of a threat with his message.  Believe it or not, she said that he was on the verge of becoming the next Malcolm X.

Why did she tell me this?  I really don't know why this was told to me in 1996.  The only thing I have in common with both men is:  Elvis 'died' on my birthday, August 16th, and Tupac was born on June 16th.  She mentioned some other stuff, but it's too much to write.

We'll just say that my classmate had too much to drink that day.

Michael Jackson News / Re: Lady Gaga Asked To Open For Michael This Is It Tour

« on: June 03, 2010, 12:00:55 PM »

From a business perspective, having Lady GaGa as the opening act would have really hurt ticket sales.  Why?  Because Michael Jackson's concerts are mostly family oriented, and Lady GaGa is not a family oriented act and/or image.  Not many parents would want their children to attend a Lady GaGa concert.  Besides, there is nothing new that she could have brought to the table that hasn't been done before.  Grace Jones and Madonna have already done that.

It appears that Michael Jackson's target audience includes people of all ages, races, nationalities, and personalities.  In other words, Michael Jackson is international.  To be honest, he never really needed an opening act because he can open and close a concert all by himself.  

The concert organizers should have been focusing on someone or something that is family oriented as the opening act.  For example, something like Cirque du Soleil, even Bubbles will do.  You want someone or something the whole family can enjoy, including grandma.

Again, an opening act for the King of Pop was not necessary.
