Michael Jackson still fond of slumber parties.

[Guest Eyeball Kid]

Just when I thought he couldn't surprise me anymore....

[Guest The Hamburglar]

I watched the program last night. You really have to watch the whole program to get a balanced view instead of the putrid sensationalist crap spouted out by the retarded British press. On watching it, I felt really, really sorry for Jackson. The guy is just genuinely disturbed. He had no childhood, so now he's tring to live one. He really doesn't come off as a paedophile, just a man who doesn't understand what's odd about his affection for children. The poor fucker has to be desparately lonely. He shouldn't be in charge of his kids, but he is desparately unfortunate in what happened to him. His recollections of his childhood abuse by his father were tragic. On top of it, they would play his old stuff to segue between segments, which was all the more heartbreaking when you realised what a genius he was.

[Guest Eyeball Kid]

Jeez, you're taking all the fun out of this.

 

You've got a point, though.

[Guest saturnmark4life]

Yeah, I could never watch anything on ITV if I had a gun to my head, but I saw clips and really, I don't think he's fucking any of these kids, he just has peter pan complex. He surrounds himself with kids cos of that. I think his kids could definitely be at risk, but only because of his obvious insanity.

[Guest PlatypusFool]

Well the British press blew it out of all proportion, as usual. What Jackson actually said in the program, according to my girlfriend, was that he likes the company of young boys, NOT that he would ever want to have sex with one. He just likes having them around, he literally said that he sleeps in the same room as them, he doesn't want to have sex with children.

 

And yes, he's clearly mad, but for a fucking good reason. Man, I need to buy History, he wrote some of the best songs ever. Him and Justin, that's the best pop music ever.

[Guest SP-1]

Saturnmark's comment about Jackson having a Peter Pan complex reminds me a little of Pan's author, JM Barry. I think Jackson might be alot like him, surrounding himself with children, being a creative person, apparently have issues to work out and all. Just a thought.

[Guest Sassquatch]

Jackson really does have some issues he needs to work out and he is not getting any younger since I see no improvement going on.

[Guest Kinetic]

Man, did he ever fuck himself up with plastic surgery. It makes me ill to look at him. I really and honestly believe that he's one of maybe ten absolutely certifiable geniuses in popular music history and, like almost all of them, he's completely and utterly fucked up for it.

[Guest Respect The 'Taker]

We got the whole deal televised here in Australia as well, and i must say it was the most in-depth Jackson interview since Oprah, and very interesting.

 

What REALLY got me what the fucking cocksucker who was the host. The man spent the ENTIRE freaking interview making Jackson out to be a child molestering freak. I wish for a SECOND that the bastard was in Jackson's shoes for ONE DAY and live with the fact that your labelled something as hideous as a 'child fucker' when you're completly innocent.

 

Take a look at the situation. I'm POSITIVE the moron who pressed charges against MJ knew this was a money mine waiting to be explored. His parents probably told him to raise some fake allegation in order to get a countries worth of cash in return for , well, doing nothing at all.

 

Being the huge MJ fan i am, i was almost brought to tears by the simple fact he was crying, but also just watching the poor man there showing the world all he does for children only to be called 'weird' and a 'freak'. MJ was right when he said the world has lost its family values, and Michael Jackson is NO MORE fucked up than what the ugly world has made him. So for anyone to call MJ a 'freak' is simply hypocritical.

 

When you've been through all MJ has been through AND not killed yourself, then come to me and say Jackson is a weirdo that deserves to be in jail just for being himself.

 

Fuck the world for thinking everything child-man related is SEXUAL in this age and not acknowledging all the amazing work he's done for children.

 

Now I'm all worked up and emotional i'll leave before i start a manhunt for the fucker who interviewed him last night...

 

UYI - Fuck the press, Michael's the best

[Guest benoitrules2000]

I saw it the other night and now believe he isn't what everyone's made him out to be.

 

He's obviously completely lost a childhood and will spend the rest of his life trying to find it through friendships with children.

 

The only problem i had was the unsettling image of the boy gavin hand in hand with jackson with his head resting affectionately on his shoulder.

Considering gavin's been through something as horrendous as cancer and the freindship jackson's offered him would help explain the purity of the closeness.

 

Also, i think jackson has ultimately never matured in mind and so thinks like a child.

This explains why he thinks nothing of a child sleeping in the same bed with him, we all did that as children with no sexual connotations to it whatsoever.

 

But he can't seriously say he hasn't had surgery on his face!

I believe the skin condition but his face has changed far too much without the aid of a surgeons knife.

[Guest Respect The 'Taker]

He admitted to plastic surgery, however only on his nose, which, he claimed, only occurred twice.

 

I'm not niave (ARGH and im going to be an English teacher in 4 years) enough to say he hasn't had more than he's stated, but i think Jackson has told himself that lie so many times he's began to believe it. However i refuse to judge any man primarily on his appearance.

[Guest godthedog]

look, michael jackson IS a god damn genius & 'off the wall' is the single greatest pop record ever, but you have to be totally naive to believe that there's nothing sexual about his obsession with young boys. even if his claims are true & he never touches them, the fixation is at least a tad sexual. if you're 44 years old and you have young boys (who aren't yours) sleeping in your bed, that is sexual. period. i know he's not mature & he never grew up, but he still has sexual urges like any post-pubescent male, & it seems to me he's too ashamed of them to deal with it in a normal way, so he aestheticizes these boys (making childhood out to be this mystical, innocent, magical thing, which it is NOT) & makes them weird fetish objects. yeah, that's fucked up & it's freudian, and i have no real experience with psychology, but there's my 2 cents anyway & it's impossible to deny that something sexual is going on here (if only in his mind).

[Guest The Hamburglar]

But the guy comes across as being completely asexual. He shrinks from even talking about sex. I honestly think he's mentally regressed back to the point where paedophilia is no longer an option. He certainly doesn't appear ashamed of his "love" of children. Interestingly, Jackson's album sales have started to sky-rocket in Britain. HIStory is up by 1000%.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

All I know is that I want the jacket in UYI's sig.

[Guest kkktookmybabyaway]

Bobcat said it best years ago: "No more sleepovers at Mike's..."

[Guest McLeary]

...the guy's just completely batshit insane. Well, one could also draw many a comparison to Howard Hughes, who, while not a pedophile, also had some issues sexually. Y'know, rich guy creates his own little world for himself and completely loses touch with reality. Perversely funny, really.

[Guest caboose]

I felt sorry for Jackson. Especially the way the iterview was carried out. Martin Bashir(interviewer) was allowed to stay at Jacko's house and even got to play with Jacko's kids, then suddenly Bashir turns around and asks him totally blunt questions, thus betraying Jacko's trust.

[Guest Respect The 'Taker]

CABOOSE!?!??!?! Your alive!? Where the hell have you been?

 

And Kotz, we have something in common..

 

You want the jacket in my sig

I want to woman in your sig (being Sophie Ellis)

 

UYI - Wishes he could dress like Michael

[Guest Jobber of the Week]

This guy REALLY throws his money around on himself and those around him. Kinda weird. They were estimating on ABC that he was actually worth a few hundred million. In comparison, I can think of a number of people with that much money and they don't have to run around in masks with an army of bodyguards.

 

...Of course, Jackson has also built up this great big legend of himself that a good deal of the public buys into. Which is kind of weird since he hasn't been influential for how many years now?

 

As for the children thing, yeah whatever. He's like Walt Disney Gone Wrong, but he's obviously had some tramautic fuckups in his life that are causing this. I'm not so sure of raising his children by himself, but as for hosting parties with kids and whatnot, he's obviously gone overboard with this whole storybook stuff, but maybe the world needs people like that, who knows.

 

Considering his wealth/status and that we have had one family file suit out of god only knows how many file have stayed there or had kids there, I'd say at this point he's mostly harmless.

[Guest Lethargic]

I just watched it and I gotta say.....somebody really needs to get those kids away from him. Seriously. If THAT maniac is seen as a fit parent then something is wrong with the world.

[Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly]

Sad, sad stuff.

[Guest McLeary]

...yeah, when a guy has his kids walking around in public with him with mardi gras masks on acting like it's the most natural thing in the world, somebody has to stop and go,"what the hell is going on here?", y'know? I also think that it's pretty obvious that the guy is indeed a pedophile, but it's not just that he claims he's not, he actually believes he isn't. It's also pretty ironic that this guy who's always been so private would completely open up his weird little world for the camera. Sorry, I just can't feel bad for this guy.
