People seem to forget about the family that accused him and how "credible" they were. AFTER he paid thousands of dollars for the boy to get cancer treatments. Real animal.

I understand your compassion, BUT, he was a dirtbag. As for his music, I loved alot of it.

My point is, we don't know the guy and we don't know any celebrity - really. Take them for what they are worth to us - their music, their performances, their art, that's their legacy.
Michael Jackson had the biggest impact in the music industry towards every race, age and social class in the world.
In his song "Heal The World", every penny he made off that single went to Africa and its charities. When his hair caught fire from the Pepsi commercial they gave him a settlement of $125 million dollars in which he gave to a Burn Charity. He also is in the book of world records for giving the most money and time to charities around the world more than any other celeb.
As a child he was hated and ridiculed by his father but after all that MJ still had so much love and care in his heart.. he had a lot of issues that no one can explain in the past 10 years or more, but he's done so much for this world to have more people ridicule him.. No other person on this earth was like him and only now many people realize it.
After all the hate and ridicule he went through, he still had room to impact us all and offer so much to people in need... He's defitely in heaven.

Waaaaaa he was hated and ridiculed by his father, so were alot of kids but that doesn't mean they went out and sniffed Cory Feldman's underoos. Nobody is completely evil I am sure OJ was alot of fun on the golf course just maybe not so much if you dated his wife.
I feel like he did it to himself. He died possibly due to drugs. He had every chance and REASON to get off drugs. He killed himself. Why should I feel bad for someone who does this to himself on purpose with no trying to even get help. Trying is one thing but he did not make an attempt to get off, he wanted to be numb. SO now he numb.

They have been playing his "life story" on one of the cable channels, it's 2-3 hours long. It's updated to reflect his passing.
They did not say he donated the Pepsi money; so I don't know how true that is.
They said that he used to be in the same room as his brothers; his brothers used to bring girls in and have sex next to him. They also said his father cheated on the mother in front of the kids. When he went home they had to lie for him or something like that.
The 1st album he put out on his own didn't do too well, the next Thriller did. He always tried to top Thriller but couldn't; they said he slipped away with each failure. Some felt it was an act, the glove, the mask, the animals; then eventually he regressed into a 10 year old.
Did he molest kids?
Honestly I have no clue.
I remember the last trial and how they raided his house and found things that aren't normal. He & Corey Feldman who used to be close were not after Corey testified about a book he was shown.
Jackson will have to answer to his maker.
When Micheal grew up, it was a totally different time. Most of us have stories to tell; yet we have to keep going and move on. Many of us watched a parent cheat. Many of us got hit when we were bad.

From what I watched of that life story I mentioned, they said he broke his nose during Billy Jean (I think) - that started the nose jobs. He then burned his scalp badly doing the Pepsi commercial and was supposedly in a lot of pain from that. They also said he broke a vertebrae in his back at one time; which I can relate to.. I don't know how he dances any more if this was the case.
I'd imagine he also had facial pain from the bad nose jobs.
What gets me the most - he did a 4 hour physical for the new tour yet he had a cardiologist on call?
Then, after Anna Nicole's death and doctors being charged, what doctor in their right mind would prescribe what they did (if this is true w/Jackson) on someone so small & fragile?

True, but none of us were godly celebrities before we hit puberty.
