I'm a huge Michael Jackson fan. But man. The guy really needs some help. Seriously. I think the first pedophilia claim could have possibly been a hoax (notice, I didn't say that it was, just that it could have been), and I think the "dangling" issue got way out of line, but Christ... he's obviously in trouble this time around. And I don't mean he's in trouble with the law, I just mean the dude's got problems. And that, well, he's obviously getting his ass thrown in jail. So I guess he's in trouble with the law, too.
It's too bad such an amazing and talented performer had to go off the deep end. It really does make me sad.
And on another note: what the hell kind of parent leaves their kid(s) with him? I mean, hell, I'm one of his biggest fans, but I wouldn't leave my little one at Neverland with that wacko. I like his music, not his lifestyle. Not his insane belief that he's still a child. Not the fact that he sleeps with children in his bed. Who the hell is letting their kids sleep over at Michael's? What the hell is wrong with you people?
Lee, darling, I had a hunch you might be getting a bit exercised about this sorry tale.
What I've heard on the Beeb to date is much nicer than nastier about Mr J.

If bad goes to worst, there's always Fela. I had reason to observe today that he's somebody you and I most definitely have in common. ;)
