Michael Jackson

The Bullet · 06-16-2011, 07:13 PM

I remember where I was.

My mom was driving me home from camp and I turn on the radio. One of the first things I hear: "Rumor has it that Michael Jackson died." The other radio personality on whatever show it was, was in complete disbelief, as were we. The first guy continued, "yeah well, TMZ is reporting it, but it hasn't been confirmed by a reliable news source yet." Having never heard of TMZ before, we immediately started looking it up to see if it was credible. We monitored the web as news almost literally came up every 10 minutes. After a few hours some LA newspaper (LA times?) reported on it, and it was official.

And yes, she's a female.

LOL GREAT JOKE hahaha

She is a popular singer out today and while I am not a fan she is good for right now but nothing she is doing is groundbreaking or innovative. Not to mention not even worthy to be mention in the same breathe or sentence as Michael... c'mon get real now.

What a boring performance and what a HORRIBLE song ughhhh
Nevermind I will stop right here.

Please do not pollute Michaels thread with her crap, she has her own thread.

Its not even worth arguing any time you want to use a performance that clearly shows her limitatations as a performer by using visual special effects and 500 million people on stage singing to a mediocre 3 year old toddler song as your arguement as to why you feel she is the new Michael Jackson.. I am done. FYI. Michael didnt need 500 people on stage or special effects to entertain a crowd. Only ONE man on stage and that was HIM. Its okay to be fan but you have lost your damn mind if you think she is Michael Jackson.. Oh hell no but you can continue to think whatever you want and have your fun..you have proved that its not even worth discussing with you.. LOL who's bad?

His notoriety, record sales, etc. might be able to stand with, at the least, if not surpass that of the Beatles. (The fans always seem to come out of the woodwork).
"Michael Jackson vs The Beatles", I wonder how that one would turn out? Not that I am a big fan of Jackson or the Beatles (as far as that goes) Just saying.
