I can see where this is going already. Jackson just died and already his father is making plans to ruin his kids lives the way he ruined Michael's.....
Honestly, a few days after his son is buried and he is already exploiting his grandchildren whom I can bet you he rarely or never actually sees. This man is truly a lowlife money sucker.

Thing is, it irks me that people are contesting the wishes of a will that was written when MJ was alive and well.

He makes no mention of his ex wife or his father, but to give custody to his mother, he should have know that's too close to his father greedy cluthes to attempt something while he's not there.
The kids have lost their protection, esp Paris, I mean aged 11...
She'll either be ok or be real screwed up and the way things are going with a 'custody' battle, i sadly sense the latter

The kids should be looked after who they feel comfy with and have memories with and if that's with MJ's mother and siblings (or even Diana Ross as stated on MJ's wishes) then so be it.
To give to his ex wife of which the kids don't have any emotional ties to per se, is like... pointless imo....
We just need to hire a ninja for his father huh... -.-

I don't know, part of what Michael is.. it's thanks to his obnoxious father, what he went through.. what happened to him, everything added up, even though he was a bit odd in the end.. he was able to be what he wanted.

Now him going through that whole process, I'm pretty sure he'd never want any of his kids to go through again. He protected his sons from the media and probably gave them a fun time to enjoy their childhood.

I'm not sure Michael was what he wanted to be. In all of his interviews, he seems exceptionally lonely and perhaps depressed.

One thing was for sure, he sure as hell wanted to be left alone by the media and, heh, that wasn't gonna happen, even to his death.
He loved to sing and perform and simply loved people.
Just with being a genius as well as a celebrity comes a very very heavy pricetag that many of us are fortunate to never have to pay in our lives.

Can't make for a very happy human being, just have to look at your average celeb to link some kinda drug, alcohol, sex etc etc problem to them at some point in their lives :\

Very few celebs have intensely private lives. I can think of only Tom Hanks and Will Smith.

Did this as a "Face-Change" exercise in Photoshop Class today.

Take it as you will.

This is not a gesture of disrespect.

Rather, it is a celebration of a hero I admire, and the adventurous spirit that he shares with another hero of mine.



Do have a lot more adventures up there in Heaven Mike, you hear!!

oh wow. i got two -rep comments that struck me as hilarious.

Yes we all know you hate him because you have no idea who he really is.

ah you poor, poor delusional child.

In a CIVILIZED world, there's this thing called innocent until proven guilty. I assume you're not from one.
lol must i say any more?

Talking Happy Birthday~

Spoiler for wonder who's gonna get to eat this?:

Today would have been his 51st, around 2 months after his passing. I have been fortunate to have been notified of a few events around here to go to, but today truly was an awesome day.
Just for a teaser:
Spoiler:

Vids and pics will follow in about 3 weeks once sanity returns to my life once more, but for now thus ends my period of 'mourning', figured to end it on a happy note of a b'day bash.
Rest in peace MJ~

I know it's a shame that he died but why do people continue to baaw for more than a month about this? It's irriating to see a new magazine/article about him every day and his family. If a relative of mine died, I would kick those reporters out of my house for bugging me about it that long.

Alright, I haven't really been paying attention to this.

Is this home doctor legitimately fishy or is this a headhunt?

So I heard, talk about a way to make more money and not let his kids rest and learn to survive to live without their prominent parent.
Princess Diana, round 2, that went on for 10 years before they officially ruled it in court that her death was not foul play.
(Though, few of us still beleive that though.)
What it did do is drag up every, single floorboard of her life and more 'exposed secrets', and I just felt sorry for her kids having to grow up with it until they were old enough a decade later to hold their own press conference and more or less tell the media to 'piss off already, none of it brings their mother back.'

Ironically, I don't believe it was outright murder a mere 17 days before his concert was to begin, at least not outright intention to end his life, hence I won't be following it all, my bet's on a headhunt tbh, Dilla.

The papers will milk it for what it's worth, more lame ass thoeries will spout, his father will probably be at the head of the brainless mob and demand someone's blood.
None of it will bring him back, thus I'm tuning out media wise and focusing on his music, fans and potential good times.

He left us something to dance and smile about for years to come, not to obsess over his passing or focus on general negativity.
That was something I remembered yesterday at the club, so gonna keep that memory with me to get on by with
