Quincy Jones, “ I am 76 years old and he was only 50. I am in a big sense of denial. Michael would empty the cup every time and come back for more. "She’s Out of My Life”, I was going to give it to Sinatra but I gave it to Michael, and he cried …
Michael Jackson
“Years ago Michael and I were having a deep conversation about life in general.
"I can’t recall the exact subject matter but he may have been questioning me about the circumstances of my Father’s Death…..
"At some point he paused, he stared at me very intensely and he stated with an almost calm certainty, ‘I am afraid that I am going to end up like him, the way he did.’….
"I promptly tried to deter him from the idea, at which point he just shrugged his shoulders and nodded almost matter of fact as if to let me know, he knew what he knew and that was kind of that…..
"14 years later I am sitting here watching on the news an ambulance leaves the driveway of his home, the big gates, the crowds outside the gates, the coverage, the crowds outside the hospital, the Cause of death and what may have led up to it and the memory of this conversation hit me, as did the unstoppable tears…..
"A predicted ending by him, by loved ones and by me, but what I didn’t predict was how much it was going to hurt when it finally happened…..
Deepak Chopra was Michael Jackson’s friend.
The whold world does know by now that Michael Jackson was an abused child. Abused children can have auto immune disease. Michael hated himself and he hated the way he looked and was a recluse because of it. Michael could not understand why people thought he was so weird when there were so many other …
Donny Osmond on the passing of Michael Jackson"
“I’ve known Michael since we both were about 13 years old. He once told me that because we went through similar experiences as teenagers, I was the only person who ever understood him. Words can’t express the sadness I feel right now. My prayers go out to his family and his children,” Donny says.
Michael Jackson once urged fellow grown-up child star Donny Osmond to change his name – or risk spiraling into obscurity. Osmond reveals he sought out the King Of Pop’s advice after his own pop career had petered out and he was broke.
Donny Osmond must have taken Michael’s advice because he released "Soldier of Love" in 1989 as a mystery artist.
Why didn’t the 911 caller tell the fire department it was Michael Jackson?
It is obvious the person who called had been very well trained in advance for any event which might occur. But his emotion did get away with him when he said the doctor was the only one present with Michael Jackson when it happened. Now the doctor is missing and the police are looking for …
Chris Cornell performs an acoustical cover version of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean”.
THIS IS GOOD.
Bruno is probably pissed at Michael Jackson too. Apparently an interview with LaToya Jackson had to be cut from his movie due to Michael’s death. That will make Bruno’s movie less than an hour long.
Remember when the biggest news of the day was Bruno’s butt in Eminem’s face? Bruno put his parts in Conan O’ Brien’s face last night but so far not much about it. Damn Michael Jackson!
“Finally… lots of love to Michael Jackson, his friends, family & fans. I’m really sad to hear about his passing — he had a huge impact on me, & I have always adored him & thought of him as a complete musical genius. I also always defended him to my friends who said he was “weird” — the best people are! I had a little MJ dance party last night in tribute & I hope you did too.”
