R.I.P Michael Jackson

[Beachbum]

A truely great singer has passed away and I'll miss his former past hits. A controversial singer,but I hope he's having a great afterlife.
This video gave me the chills of how good he was as a child.
(quality is pretty bad, but the audio is nice and amazing.)

Well I'll take it upon myself to get cracking with the jokes.

Apparently he will be melted down and turned into plastic toys, so the kids can play with him for a change

And

Doctors thought he would pull through as he has got out of a few tight holes before.

IMO he was a dirty sleazy child molesting weird f*ckwit, and not withstanding some questionable pop music, the world will be a safer place without him.

Hopefully Gary Glitter will be next.

I'm sad to see anyone die before they have had a chance to sort themselves out. He was obviously very unhappy, confused and confusing. But I hope the 'fans' don't start another Elvis type response. He was only a man with a musical talent. RIP Michael.

farah fawcett was at the pearly gates yesterday. god told her... "you have one wish before you enter the kingdom of heaven"...
and farah said "i wish all the children of the world could be safe"..........


He was a kiddy fiddling freak with real mental issues no one would help him with. I shant be mourning.

[Sillysausage]

i've never really been interested in him or his music but do think some of his dance moves were pretty good. as for the jokes, ... jackson was moulded into plastic cups so the kids wouldn't stop licking his rim

[hawaiiSUCKSexceptsurf]

[drowningbitbybit]

Even I'm shocked at that KS!!!

Shocked at how rubbish it is!!!

I like what Charlie Brooker said in the Guardian about the obscene amounts of news coverage over his death...

If I was God, here's what I'd do now. I'd force all the rolling networks to cover nothing but the death of Michael Jackson, 24 hours a day, for the next seven years. Glue up the studio doors and keep everyone inside, endlessly "reporting" it, until they start going mad and developing their own language – not just verbal, but visual. And I'd encourage viewers to place bets on which anchor would be the first to physically end it all live on air.

And while that was happening, I'd create some other stations that covered other stuff. Current affairs type stuff. I think I'd call them "news channels". They might catch on.


I was buying milk.....ok, beer on Saturday in the local shop and noticed that the Sun had Jacko death covering the front page and at the bottom it said "full story inside, pages 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15" I mean come on who would buy that to read half a page of news and fourteen and a half pages of drivel? I was still trying to answer that as I finished reading my copy and started to preserve my souviner copy.

Jade Goody and Michael Jackson in one year. Now if only we can get Jordan and Victoria Beckham onto a helicopter....

[flyingvee]

At least West Ham fans can still blow bubbles...

just for the record and ignore as you wish. I fleshin' hate all the jokes that go round about this, same in any instance when someone famous dies but particularly when about child molestation (sp?), its just not right to joke about such a thing - but thats just my opinion I guess. Im already bored of the songs getting overplayed on the radio, this is a shame - used to love throwing some shapes to Billy Jean. His dancing was awesome and truely breakthrough as were his music videos, his music was OK but great in comparision to a lot of pop music. He led a very sad life and a lot of the media response to him was (as are the jokes) beyond cruel and disgusting - like much media reporting of 'celebrities'. He seemed to be a very damaged and vulnerable individual, I truely hope he wasnt guilty of the crimes he was acquited for - for the sake of the alledged victims.

Sadly the Elvis response has already started with Michael Jackson sightings websites and conspiricy theories springing up

[Jonah_Fro]

Personally, I reckon he's spent the last 20 years planning all this. He's convinced us he's white with a soft squeeky voice. £200 says he's kickin it up on a beach somewhere. He's washed off the white face paint , combed out the afro and is working as a Barry White tribute act until the heat blows over.

[RJD]

I rekon he couldnt face doing 60 shows in public. Realised this after a rehersal and , as he was pretty much owned by the company involved, decided the only way out was to top himself.

There selling tickets to his funeral and merchandise... sick.
