At the last moment we got saved from an unneeded comeback tour by a grandfather-aged senior who behaved like a teenager. There are some people I do not admire for being like that. Hugh Heffner. The Rolling Stones. Tina Turner. Grace Jones. Michael Jackson. Style lies in knowing your age - and not pretending to be 30 years younger. It seems they all suffer from the same problem: trying to become immortal by pretending to be young forever. But that strategy is a trap from the very beginning. Or in other words: bad timing all life long.

Celebreties - alle plemplem.

He may have been young but he looked like a walking corpse.

Mark Sanford's political career just bought Michael Jackson a beer in the afterlife.

as a child of the late 70s and early 80s i can tell you... when i was just a little kid i thought "thriller" was just frickin awesome.

it is unfortunate that in his later life he had so many "issues".

he has fans... im not a MJ fan really, though his impact on pop music cannot be denied... and his fans will remember him fondly

but most of the world will probably remember him as "Whako Jacko" the child molesting nut job.
