Statements Pour In About The Death Of Michael Jackson
It seems that every celebrity on the planet has issued a statement about the passing of Michael Jackson. Seriously, every single. Below is just a few from those who worked with him or knew him well. Understandably, Elizabeth Taylor just can't deal right now, so her rep said she will issue a statement at a later time.
Brooke Shields: "My heart is overcome with sadness for the devastating loss of my true friend Michael. He was an extraordinary friend, artist and contributor to the world. I join his family and his fans in celebrating his incredible life and mourning his untimely passing."
Madonna: "I can't stop crying over the sad news. I have always admired Michael Jackson. The world has lost one of the greats, but his music will live on forever! My heart goes out to his three children and other members of his family. God bless."
Lisa Marie Presley: "I am so very sad and confused with every emotion possible. I am heartbroken for his children, who I know were everything to him, and for his family. This is such a massive loss on so many levels, words fail me."
Quincy Jones: "I am absolutely devastated at this tragic and unexpected news. For Michael to be taken away from us so suddenly at such a young age, I just don't have the words."
Liza Minnelli: "He was a kind, genuine, and wonderful man. He was also one of the greatest entertainers that ever lived. I loved him very much and I will miss him every remaining day of my life."
Corey Feldman: "I come to you today with great sadness, acknowledging the loss of the greatest entertainer in the history of mankind. For me he was more than that, he was my idol, he was a role model, he was someone to cry to when my childhood was unbearable, he was a brother, he was a dear friend. Unfortunately Michael and I had a falling out on September 10th 2001 and that broken friendship had never been repaired … I am filled with tremendous sadness and remorse. All I choose to remember from this point is the good times we shared and what an inspiration he was to me and the rest of the world. Nobody will ever be able to do what Michael Jackson has done in this industry, and he was so close to doing it all again. I am truly, and deeply sorry for all of the heartbroken fans and supporters worldwide."

1)Where r u getting this info? i didn't hear or read A SINGLE statement from any staff members about any sort of "molestation". Anything else BUT this. All i saw was an article on some site that allegedly came from the first "victim" that said he was sorry that his father made him lie and he feels guilty now that MJ's gone. But i'm sure it was a fake cuz it wasn't a reliable source, even though a lot of facts point to that being the truth.
2) if u've done your research u would actually see LaToya's interview, where she clearly stated that somebody was threatening her with death to say that (i think it was her crazy husband at the time), and also if you've seen Michael's interviews he explained many times WHY he decided to pay the damn kid!
3) if he just paid him off the first time and "got away with it", then he would've been found guilty at least the second time around.
4) if a person is a pedophile, he's not gonna be molesting just 1 kid one or two times every 10 years or so, there would've been hundreds of lawsuits! And don't tell me he paid them all off to shut up! No normal parent would take money for something like this. Would you?
5) Your duck comparison is quite superficial. Ever heard of don't judge a book by its cover? If somebody wanted to they could easily prove that i'm either a lesbian or a pedophile, heck my friends nicknamed me "pedo" cuz i love taking pictures of little kids! The matter of fact is that there is not one thing that proves he is.
Watch his interviews with Oprah in '93, then "Living with Michael Jackson", and after "Living with Michael Jackson Take Two" if you haven't yet.
Did you know Michael had 13 No. 1 songs, and 5 No. 1 albums in his life? You can learn about all of this and much more you didn’t know about the King of Pop at www.billboard.com.
@WTF:
if you've actually read everything i said here u would see, that i'm not saying he's %100 innocent. I'm not defending him, i'm just saying there is no proof he's guilty, so nobody knows what really went on.
--You're saying he's not innocent, but neither is he guilty?
MANY People are aware what went on - and they're starting to come forward. His own sister LaToya tried to warn people - the first child he molested came away with $23 million in "hush money" - THAT's why MJ wasn't convicted on the FIRST charge of abuse - he settled with the family out of court. Staff members are now coming out to advise what they witnessed. Why didn't they come out earlier? Simple - they signed *confidentiality* agreements which forbade them from commenting on things that went on in the home.
It's quite simple, really...if it looks, like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck - it's a duck.
Have a nice day.
geezus, Brooke looks like a Polygamist Wife here.

So surreal to have to be reporting on this news. I felt like I was in an MJ bubble for two days but wasn't able to really absorb the reality of it. Anyway, there are a bunch more musicians who gave us statements if you'd like to read them.

The screaming caps on SOMETHING suggest that believing anything is better than having a rational, open mind.*shakes head*I hope God isn't cross with you for your language
************************
You think having a "rational, open mind" is better than believing in ANYTHING? I feel pity for you. I find it hysterical that you're gonna nit pick about me expressing my faith and heaven forbid offending your ass because I speak of a God, but you can go on a rant about a man being a pedo when he was found innocent? Get off your witch hunt... he's dead !
And at the end of my life, I'd rather have believed in something only to be proven wrong than to go through life believing in nothing and be proved wrong! Good luck with that. And what is so rational and open minded about saying,
" well if I can't see it then it doesn't exist"? Maybe you need to think outside of your little box and I emphasize "little".

"Straight up...he ADMITTED TO SHARING HIS BED WITH YOUNG CHILDREN" ahahha that's like saying the sky is blue! nobody ever denied that, u intelligent person! is that supposed to mean he admitted to the molestation? calling u a retard would be a compliment.
"There was a REASON they wanted to photograph his penis - the children DESCRIBED IT." First of all, as far as i know only the first child made a drawing of it, but it did not fully match!
"Don't turn him into a martyr now that he's passed." if you've actually read everything i said here u would see, that i'm not saying he's %100 innocent. I'm not defending him, i'm just saying there is no proof he's guilty, so nobody knows what really went on.
Presumably though, the proof that wasn't convincing enough to sway any jury was convincing enough for you and the rest of the "MJ is a pedo" camp to conclusively decide guilt. Obviously, this means you must be possessed of great wisdom, since despite hearing less evidence than the jury, you were able to make a greater conclusion than they.
now go study. I could prove your case better than u.

dumb twat, I said " he has met HIS maker" , which means WHOEVER or WHATEVER he believed in! IF you're some atheist fuck , well then excuuuuse me! I think at one time Michael was a Jehovah. Most people (that are evolved) have faith and believe in a higher power - doesn't mean they all believe in the same thing- but they believe in SOMETHING!! so STFU you pathetic bitch!!
************************************************
Eh? Just because he believed in something, it doesn't make it true.So, we'll all meet what we expect to on our death? All these 'evolved' people will all meet what they believe in? Jews, Muslims, Buddists, Hindus will all meet the maker they expect? All of them? Surely some must be wrong? But you say MJ will meet what God he believes in. This I assume must be true for us all. Great,I'll take Mr Depp please. I was just trying to make the point that we don't all believe and it's rude to assume this is a reality for everyone. However, given the phrase 'atheist fuck' guess there's no point in trying to have a reasoned discussion.

Straight up...he ADMITTED TO SHARING HIS BED WITH YOUNG CHILDREN
“The most loving thing to do is to share your bed with someone.”
What 35 yr. old man "shares his bed" with 8 year old children?? He had Neverland Ranch - a pedo's DELIGHT.
There was a REASON they wanted to photograph his penis - the children DESCRIBED IT.
I don't doubt his musical genius in the least, however, as many have commented where the hell were all of these "sympathetic, loving, admiring" stars when he was going through the trial? Even Lisa Marie admitted she had to leave because she had "the health of her young children to consider".
He was a musical legend. He was a pedophile. He was a drug addict. Why? Many reasons no doubt. However, don't turn him into a martyr now that he's passed. He was what he was.

So Sweetheart, i won't be rude to you if you show me your certificate in psychology and genetics, biological test results that prove he is not their father (i said it was just MY opinion they're not his), and results of cross-examination of all the children that ever visited him in his ranch. Until then i find it useless to discuss this subject, because you don't know the truth and neither do I, so stop being so categorical. Give people the benefit of the doubt. And we've all lied in our life, you can't judge solely on this premise.

i believe to have answered your question in an intelligible manner in your mother tongue for you to try to understand, but it seems to me your narrow-mindedness is obstructing you from being able to do that. Read again what i said, if you still don't get it, i can explain in french, russian or italian.
and NO, i do not believe those children are his biological children. They don't have a single african-american trait, and even though MJ altered his appearance, his genes remain black, and it should be visible in his children as well. But that's just my humble opinion from a logical point of view. And what does this stupid question change anyway? why do u give a damn if they're his biological children or not?
Now i have a question for you, where were u educated? and were u edumacated at all? just curious.
Also - he's now met his maker ...whatever he did or didn't do ... he will be judged by him.

SUSHI - how sad are you that you feel the need to come on a dead man's thread and bash him to no end?
God you're just a nasty fucked up person. There are plenty like you on this thread - but you're just non stop. Almost like you have no soul. You're one of those people that gain pleasure from someone else's pain.

Because dumb mother fuckers like you whitewash everything he did. Interesting how you think I'm sick and yet Whacko Jacko you love and excuse what he has done.
I don't give a shit what you think about me. How you think you MJ speaks volumes of your character.
Because K2 money talks!!!!!!!
MJ bought those children from his 'ex-wife', (stupid cow), she has stated that she recieved money from him to stay out of their lives. You talk shit all the time about other celebrities but then defend one of the worst as he has been accused of horrendous acts against young children.
********************
EXACTLY! He was accused!! He was found NOT guilty. He may have been able to buy his kids from the mother - but at any time CPS could've swooped in and did even more of an investigation into his children's lives! Shit, any man accused of child molestation to other children - should go through extensive periods of supervision with his own children - or even have the children removed from the home until he is found innocent! This NEVER happened. Don't tell me his money bought him the freedom to hang onto his kids but couldn't buy him out of a trial! It would take a devious judge to turn a blind eye if they thought Michael's children were in jeopardy.
You're trying to nail a dead Jackson to a tree but I bet you were one of the whiny bitches screaming to free OJ!
Also - he's now met his maker ...whatever he did or didn't do ... he will be judged by him.
I understand the need to express sadness and grief, but do we really need a statement from Miley Cyrus or Kourtney Kardashian on the passing of MJ?
If you knew the man personally or worked with him at some point, then I think it's appropriate to make an official release, i.e.: Sheryl Crow, Martin Scorcese, Wesley Snipes, even Naomi Campbell. Otherwise, I think we can all assume that everyone is shocked and saddened. I hope his funeral doesn't become a circus.

What the hell is going to happen to the Beatles songs, rights, etc....that was one of my main interests/concerns.
I totally feel awful about Michael, he was a true entertainer, his music was the shit, he was the man besides all his strangeness. His music and memory will live on forever.
And he will forever be talked about, he is a REFERENCE, when someone says, they dance like MJ or sing like MJ, you know who they are talking about....He will live forever and ever.
Truly a sad, devestating loss. While I dont agree (IF ITS TRUE) about what he did to the kids (its still alledged), these parents were looking for money and they could of definitely lied.
No he shouldnt be sleeping in bed w/children of strangers, but if parents are that fucking stupid and allowing your children to go over strangers houses for weekends, I think the parents have issues and hidden agendas.
MICHAEL WAS A MASTER ICON OF MUSIC, THE JACKSON FIVE IS MUSIC THAT WAS ALWAYS A PART OF MY YOUNG CHILDHOOD and WILL FOREVER TREASURE CERTAIN SONGS, SOME STILL MAKE ME CRY TO THIS DAY!
Some faves, are Mamma's Pearl, Going Back to Indiana, The Love You Save, I'll be there, Never can say Goodbye, so many, many more. Its will nevre die.
RIP MICHAEL, may you find peace with all your shortcoming as an adult. Hopefully you will be forgiven, and Im sure whether you believer in ALLAH or GOD, you will have to explain, but you will be forgiven, our God is a forgiveable god.
Please be at peace now, no more pain, no more papparazzi, chasing you and trying to make you look like a piece of shit always. I truly admire you and was and still am a HUGE FAN OF YOURS!!
Your Thriller, Bad & Off The Wall are classics that I could listen to all the time. These songs will never ever go away, people love them, he was awesome at that time. He got wierd after that, But we dont know others pains and what goes on behind closed doors. WE ARE NOT THE ONES TO JUDGE! He has faced his maker and they will JUDGE, not us.

This is a man who was on the outs with countless business partners, friends, and his sister. He was no saint.

Bitter bitch/dick. He was found not guilty - why isn't that good enough? Oh that's right, b/c OJ was found not guilty too and yet he was a killer and even admitted to it in his "fiction" book.
If Jackson was such a threat to children then why weren't his taken away from him?? WHY? Shut the f*ck up until you can come up with a legitimate answer.
He wasn't a saint. Neither was Farrah Fawcett or any of these celebrities that drop dead! But when people die - you try to remember their best qualities. You try and pay some respect for the good that they DID do. When you drop, you should only hope that the people you know don't harp on your bad attitude, bitchiness, bitterness, wrongful doings and ugly heart :-) !

TMZ is reporting that the Jackson family confirmed that MJ received a shot of Demerol just before noon yesterday and he received a shot daily. They said yesterdays dose was too much.
As far as I'm concerned it's another child molestor off of the street. I loved MJ growing up but hated what he became. I feel for his kids and hope they can have normalcy in some way from here on out.
I want to thank Michael Jackson for improving the image of gay men everywhere by dispelling the ancient prejudices that we behave in an odd manner, are appearance-obssessed, and are a threat to children.

How many times does it take getting accused of child molestation, before you people will actually THINK that it IS a possibility. Yes, he was aquitted, but so was OJ.

Freudian slip?
"He was just a man in a child's body". Apparently he was acquitted of that...twice..."
Owch!! LOL!
Yes, he was talented. But he was also a pedophilic, pill-popping, child-molesting curd with a "PeterPan" complex who, when all is said and done was quite delusional and lived in a constant fantasy world totally unconnected from reality.
Yes, it's shocking but to be honest, it's hard for me to feel any time of sorrow for a man who plied children with "Jesus Juice" and slept naked in the same bed with them.
