TMZ Articles / Re: TMZ is DISGUSTING!
« on: December 03, 2009, 09:44:47 PM »
I understand your outrage, tinker_bell, but the angrier you get about this kind of stuff, the more you feed tabloid-ish media outlets like TMZ and give them what they want, which is a reaction, be it negative or positive.

Those derogatory articles and unflattering photos that TMZ posts are all aimed at getting the website attention. If you really want to stand up against such stupidity, don't visit the website, don't repeat anything from the website (which indirectly promotes it), and don't get worked up about anything published on the website.

I've stopped reading TMZ, although I scan the RSS feed every now and then. I was aware the article you refer to was posted around Thanksgiving, but I didn't seek it out to read it until your post piqued my curiosity. I rarely read or comment on anything related to Michael's children anyway because they're just kids and deserve privacy.

Yeah, the comments are nasty, but that's what TMZ is all about: silly celebrity gossip and silly reactions to it. Most people who read the website know that beforehand, and that's what many of them are there for anyway, meaning to waste time by acting silly and learning silly stuff in an environment specifically set up for silliness.

TMZ and Harvey Levin aren't worth getting emotional over, but I do empathize with your position.

last one on dr murray: is there any possibility he is an LAPD undercover agent?

I have no clue, but that is a pretty darn interesting idea. I think quite a few people would be absolutely stunned if it turned out Murray was affiliated with a law enforcement agency, especially if he was working undercover.

It would definitely explain a lot, too, such as how he's been able to return to practicing medicine when he's supposedly the only suspect in the homicide of a major entertainer, a "death" that was allegedly caused by his medical incompetence. (I don't believe Murray is a suspect, or even the only suspect, though).

This question/possibility is the most intriguing MJ-related thing I've read today. Thanks, Wizard.

Even I'm intrigued, and I'm usually pretty skeptical or indifferent about this kind of mysterious stuff. Thanks for the heads-up, ForstAMoon.

Like SPAKKLE29FUL, though, I refuse to get wrapped up in yet another Twitter account. Information overload = "Hello, headache!"

I'm not sure if it's real tho, but it just looked real because she doesn't want to accept people she doesn't know but we don't know for sure if it's ever really Paris or Michael's other children but like you said they wouldn't use their own names.
Thanks for your reply, MJLover1990. I have a MySpace that I never use because I don't like the site's interface and design, so I was wondering how you figure out stuff like that, if it's even possible.

Incidentally, I just visited the public blog for the account, which identifies "Paris Jackson" as a 19-year-old.

Really? My, how fast she's aged recently. She's gone from 11 to 19 years old in just five months! Amazing.

And she's in a relationship! With who, I wonder.

Please don't be so gullible when it comes to these easily faked social networking accounts that can be set up by anyone with a computer and Internet access.

If Paris Jackson really had a MySpace or Facebook or Twitter or whatever account and really didn't want to be overwhelmed with friend requests and attention, she and Michael's other children WOULD NOT put their real, highly publicized names on the account/url.

Why not just use Parbear, the fairly unrecognizable (to the general public) nickname on this *FAKE* MySpace account, instead of the oh-SO-obvious "theparisjackson"? I won't deny that the account could have been started by someone with access to photos of Paris, but I genuinely doubt that she, herself, is maintaining the account with the knowledge of her caretakers, meaning Katherine. And since all of Michael's children seem respectful and obedient, that means I don't think Paris is responsible for the account.

Quote from: "MJLover1990"
I really think that that is Paris on Myspace she won't accept anyone she doesn't know.
How can you tell who the owner of this account does and doesn't accept, and that the account's MySpace friends are really people that Paris actually knows? How can you determine that with certainty? Just curious.

Michael Jackson News / Re: INTERESTING BLOG!who is its owner?
« on: December 03, 2009, 03:19:12 PM »
What mjfanforever said is accurate. The MJHDConspiracy blogger was an active member of all versions of MJHD and probably participates in other similar forums, too.

I'm not convinced the diaper-fetish Amy is the MJHD Admin Amy, though, just like I'm not convinced the second Amy is actually the person responsible for MJHD and all of the site's fiascos.

Personally, I think MJHD was intentionally set up to play mind games with members while gathering as much of their hard-earned investigative information as possible. Too bad, we'll probably never know for sure, at least until the book with everyone else's research comes out.

tinker_bell and mumof3, I think we're on the same wave length when it comes to not believing that Stevie would fake emotion. But if Michael's death really was faked, I don't think that many people are aware of it, including Stevie and many of his other true close friends. In my opinion, the situation involves only the very few people who really need to know, as opposed to it being a massive conspiracy operation with lots of players keeping secrets and trying to fool the general public.

Close friends and family visiting Forest Lawn don't affect my belief that Michael may still be alive for the same reason -- maybe they just don't know what's going on because there's no need for them to know. Simply being close to Michael isn't enough to get that kind of information.

Quote from: "MJ777"
I understand how some of you feel. A part of me wants to believe in the hoax but there have not been any solid clues recently. I think it's hard for us to let go because MJ was a recluse these last few years. We feel like we missed out on seeing him and enjoying his new music and creativity. The molestation trials really hurt him, he just wanted to be alone with his kids. I don't think he was ready for a comeback yet...

His "death" was a major shock, we never expected him to leave us so soon. If it is a hoax, I'm one of the people who believes he won't make a comeback. I think he did it for privacy. In a way, his death is the greatest comeback for his career. He is breaking records all over again. We may hear some of his music released in the future. There has been a reawakening, people are realizing what a gift he was/is and missing him. So if he's alive, he has created the greatest comeback ever. If he's gone, it's still the greatest comeback ever but the world feels empty without him.
I love this part of your comment, MJ777. Your explanation regarding how Michael's death can be viewed as the greatest comeback of his career is excellent, and I agree with you.

Still, I just really wish there were a clear sign to let us know that Michael is doing well. That's the one thing I want more than any other, even if we never see him in the flesh again. The lack of clues, news, and whatnot doesn't bother me at all.

Random MJ Talk / Re: For those losing hope!
« on: December 02, 2009, 10:49:49 PM »
Oh, dear tinker_bell, thank you!

I rarely lose hope and definitely not today, but I always read the "despairing-style" threads just to see if I can offer any help. Others usually beat me to it.

I remember each of these posts from a while back. Both are true gems -- so darn funny and spot-on.

The second one was also posted on MJkit in August by The Little White Bird, although I don't know if (s)he's the original author. I got a huge laugh out of it, commented, and was able to dig up the link now by searching my comment archives on the old board.

Brett Ratner  :?:  I do not remember I saw him...
yea, Stevie Wonder....
Brett Ratner yeah I was going to add him...They were good friends, if not best friends? Where was he? Hmmm
Brett Ratner shouldn't have been there anyway.

I don't think Michael considered him a close friend after Brett introduced him to the possibly Mob-connected and shady Al Malnik. When Michael stayed at Malnik's home with his kids, Al's wife Nancy, and the Malnik children earlier in the 2000s, Tommy Mottola reportedly called the residence to speak with him, which allegedly freaked Michael out big time for obvious reasons (think Sony, racism, and The Devil).

Michael also didn't consider Madonna a close friend, and he seemed to have gotten over all of the "famous" women he dated or married in his younger days, including Tatum, Brooke, and Lisa Marie.

Many people don't realize how focused and resilient Michael was, which gave him an excellent ability to look ahead and move on with his life. I know that shocked the sh*t out of Lisa Marie, who seemed to believe he would be pining for her forever. Boy, did she learn a lesson...

Quote from: "~Souza~"
The premise of the miniseries (at least when filming started last January) seems to center on the Jackson 5, including Michael, reuniting for their 40th anniversary.

OK, so we assume that Mike would be in the series too. Preparing for the anniversary, filming started in January (6 months before his 'departure'), so big chance we will see him a few minutes.
That would be an incorrect assumption. I've been covering the television industry professionally for years with press access. It was made clear months ago when plans for A&E's Jackson reality series were first announced that Michael never intended to appear in or be involved with the show, and he didn't flm anything specifically for it as far as I know. Good for him since the series is just more of the same reality dreck that's come before it anyway.


Quote from: "O-drey-O"
But I still have one question... I read weeks ago that Michael didn't want to do this reality show.
You probably did read that because it's true.

Thanks for the link to that wonderful and moving video, tinker_bell.

I understand exactly how you *and* Stevie Wonder feel. Although my belief that Michael is still alive hasn't wavered or diminished since I first began feeling that way shortly after June 25, I do have my teary-eyed moments several times a week.

Just seeing him being his normal lovely self is enough to make me emotional, not because I'm losing faith or hope, but because of how badly and unfairly he was treated for so long before and after June 25.

That's what's hardest for me to accept about this situation: not that Michael may never return and we may never know exactly what happened last summer, but that he repeatedly had to put up with so much preposterous crap and how often that must have broken his spirit and prevented him from accomplishing as much as he wanted to.

If ever there was a person who deserved better, Michael is him. So, while I don't need any more clues or direct knowledge of what went down on June 25, I would be beside myself with joy if something surfaced to let us all know without a doubt that Michael is still with us, safe, and happy. That would be enough to satisfy me.

General Hoax Talk / Re: If Michael comeback
« on: December 01, 2009, 08:32:32 PM »
There are always going to be haters, no matter what, Wildy. But otherwise, the situation depends on the reason that Michael's death was faked.

If it was because his life was in serious danger, as I believe, I think most people will give him the benefit of the doubt and (eventually) treat him with respect, compassion, and understanding.

However, if the events surrounding June 25 were for an arguably selfish reason, such as getting out of debt or making a movie, I think the general reaction will be much less kind and infinitely more negative.
