The whole thing is madness anyway. Quite frankly it is over he was found not guilty so that is that. The crazy thing about the system in the US is that a couple of Jurors have now come and and said that they believe he is guilty but they didn't vote that way. But wait for it they both have book deals.

That is what this whole case was about money.

Lets face it no one knows for sure if he is guilty or innocent. He would be a target for many reasons. His strange lifestyle etc. Unfortunately I think alot of this case was motivated by money.

I can't see it ever happening again. I think Michael will just fade into the background of life now.

Michael Jackson has made his first public appearance since the trial in London a few days ago. Apparently he was swarmed by fans; they still love him.

It is such a shame ; because quite frankly why does he still have fans. I used to love his music; but when was the last time he released a hit. I can't remember.

He is a has been. Simple and true. The media needs to move on to people that are actually doing something; not people that used to do something?

He was born on 28th August, 1958. He turned 47 this year.

I wasn't sure myself so I checked it out on the web. :shock:

At the risk of getting into another religious battle I must put it to you. Perhaps M Jackson still has fans for the same reason that the Catholic church still has fans even after The Inquisition.

No. I am saying that many people take the attitude that, "My mind is made up. Don't confuse me with the facts". People are not persuaded by facts but by what they want to believe.

Someone likes him is hard to find. I meant, musical skills, not the other area :lol: . Thus, I think just because he doesn't release new albums we should forget him. A talented person is always appreciated through time. In addition, I think he's one of the idols that the old generation have left to admire of-- he reminds them of the old days. Just imagine how stupid it would be if the old generations were fans of the young ones like Hillary Duff, Christina Aguilera :roll: .

The fans that I saw on the television that were swamping him in England weren't older people Lenny they were people ranging from 17-20's from what I saw!

Well, you have to admit his old albums are still way better than most the young ones' albums. Right? So if the old is gold, why turn our backs away from it? 8)

I agree that he is music is great. I must admit I think is old hat though. If he still wants adulation he needs to write a new album and do something. He can't keep sitting back on works he produced decades ago.

You know what, actually I prefer it this way. He's had a good time, and now it's turn for the young ones to make their moves. I'm okay with him trying to relive his moments, but trying to rebuild it is quite meh to me unless his new album is a promise of best of the best (whatever this means :lol: ).

Funny you should say that because alot of people felt the same way about artists like TINA TURNER and DAVID BOWIE and they did great things when the restarted their careers. I just think if he is going to do something he had better do it really soon. People get sick of has beens quickly. Especially ones with the sort of repututation that he is gaining. :oops:

But on the other hand, with the reputation he's having right now, he might not have as many people who will be curious in his new album. I mean, if he waited for awhile and then popped up the new album, peope would be really curious, "hmmm let's see what this guy is up to? New album? I wonder if it's good?" However, if he started right now, some people would be, "I'm not gonna listen to that children molester's music." A lot of negative effects are still going on. I think if he wanted to rebuild his past moment, he should wait for the tension to cool down (I don't think it'll ever be off since he's titled as a children molester even he won the case). To me, when people are no longer angry, they would transfer their feelings to curiosity to someone they were angry with. Don't you think?

I heard yesterday that Michael Jackson has been living in Bahrain since the end of his trial. :shock: I mean what is that about?

The reason why this information has become public knowledge is because the vet that has helped him acquire and medically treat all the animals at 'Neverland' (his estate in America) is reluctantly sueing Michael because he hasn't paid his bill for something like two years.

What is it with this guy? He just hates having to pay his way, doesn't he? :roll:

The case has been going for too long. One of the jurors got kicked out of the team, Jacko is selling his Beatle collection ( I think), etc.

If he's found guilty, he could face up to 20 years in prison. *sigh*.......

I am listening to his songs now.
I love his songs.
If this case happened in our country,he would not have that trouble,giving his money to the judge,everything was ok!

Now in China, money is the god!
U have money ,u have all.
If you are rich,u can do everything,including killing your enemy.

The Communism Party is the big one,
what that he says right is right ,and ,what that he says wrong is wrong .

He said our people living happy lives,though many people were very poor ,many people did't have enough money to support their childen's education .

TVs, newspapers,broadcasts are all his slaves now .

U can not say anything which is acctually wrong wrong.

sigh..........

It didn't seem to be unusual to me, to be truthful. He didn't wanna be recognized, but I guess he was lousy at his undercover mask.

He was the King of Pop but he hasn't done anything worthwhile in years. I think he no longer holds that mantel. :lol: I love the Thriller album it would probably be close to one of my top 10 albums. I also like some of the dance music he did with the Jackson 5. Ben was a great song too. Very sad! :cry:
