Will Wacko Jacko Bring Glove to "Idol"?

JackoCourtney Love on "American Idol" -- intriguing. Michael Jackson on "Idol" -- shocking!

It could happen, though, if certain hints dropped by "Idol" producers are to be believed. Realitytvmagazine.com reports that "several signs" point to the possibility that Michael Jackson will have his own "Idol" theme-week, and might even "mentor" the impressionable young talent on the show.

Why all the Jackson buzz? First of all, "Idol" producers have hinted for weeks at a "big event show" during this season. Also, reports have swirled that Jackson has turned to "Idol" creator Simon Fuller to help revive his flagging career, perhaps involving a comeback show in Las Vegas. Finally, in a recent conference call, executive producer Nigel Lythgoe explained the show's impenetrable wall of silence around contestants, and used Jackson as an example, saying they wouldn't want it to "slip out with somebody telling their mom that Michael Jackson is coming."

Freak Show Gallery: Click to launch photosWould a savvy operator like Lythgoe really let such a big scoop just slip? Reps for the show had no comment. A rep for Michael Jackson could not immediately be reached.

46. El and Farrah are on this site constantly, you see their names over and over in reading thru the various stories. They obviously don't work at all, forget $7 an hour. They collect welfare and/or disability, have several kids by various unknown daddies and are well aquainted with the crack pipe. And they like to blame the white race for the fact that they're nobodies who have nothing and will never contribute anything to society. Just sad, pathetic, useless losers.

And to the gov't worker: Oh yeah, I'm REALLY scared now. We all know those with no discernible skills work for the gov't.

47. Two Cents... you are absolutely right that I was giving EL too much credit, on purpose.

You see, I was trying to make him feel really bad. By painting a picture of a life that was way beyond his means (i.e., $7/hr) it not only reminded him that he was a loser, but also that he was a loser BENEATH all other losers.

That’s probably why he didn’t specifically respond to me, because it really hit home with him. Poor guy, I almost feel sorry for him. Then again, he is an ugly bigot, so he deserves the hell he lives in.

48. Yeah Boyeee! you should know better than to try and use reverse psychology on someone with only a 4th grade education (and that's a bit of a stretch too).

That assclown is a generational loser; lets hope it doesn't procreate (LMAO, FAT CHANCE).

50. I personaly think that Michael Jackson had a great collection of hits that have and will last a life time....no matter what anyone says about him....remember he was never convicted and its time for everyone to let it go....get over it....its time to move on!!!

51. Well, typical Farrah did what I like to refer to as a drive-by. That is, drive by and make an ignorant comment and then run away. She never takes any challenge of debate on. I have tried many times, but she never comes back. You notice how she always closes her message with "no justice, no peace? When will she learn that she and her like will get no "justice" until the rest of us get "peace"!

As for EL, that guy must be retarded, based on his typing. Either that or he truly has a 3rd grade writing level.

53. Is that the best you got, EL? You can't even spell! hahaha

Remember, most of us are living lives you will never know. Do you own your own home? Have a brand new European car? A good career? A beautiful familiy?

Not with that grammar and spelling, you don't. Poor little jealous boy. ;)

54. GO TO SCHOOL PUNK, OR GET A JOB, WHATEVER OR WHOEVER WILL TAKE YOUR PATHETIC AZZ IN. I BET YOUR CRACKHEAD MAMA DON'T EVEN WANT YOUR BIT*H AZZ.

55. Okay, okay guys...seriously, this is about MJ and Am. Idol, not about Farrah and EL. I used to like TMZ, but ppl like Farrah and EL make it hard for a BROTHA to enjoy looking at silly, intelligent and sarcastic comments on topic to break up a rather long 10 hour work day.

MJ is a great. Putting his personal life aside, I'd love to see him on Am. Idol, I do still consider him a musical genius, and if those contestants get to spend a week with him, they'll learn so much.

That said, as for Mike being a pedophile, he just needs to be admitted to a psych ward. He has some mental problems, and they haven't been tended to, hence his radical change from a black man to an anonymous race. He needs special attention, he deserves it. We can't toss all of our greats out the door for being mentally off kilter! I personally don't believe he did anything with the kids, but has been so devoid of a childhood he can't fathom somethings that adults just shouldn't say/do around children.

-Sorry for the novel...now it's time I get back to work. Caio.

56. I would like to thank all my supporters that have stuck by me in these diffucult times.I would like to remind all my African American friends that February is Black History Month, and we should be very proud what our founding fathers laid out for us. I will never give up my FIGHT against Racism! NO PEACE NO JUSTICE!!!

Posted at 5:25PM on Feb 13th 2007 by Farrah

57. Yes, Farrah, it is Black History month, and I would like to personally pay my respect to those who deserve honorable mention like Dr. Martin Luther King. You, on the other hand, deserve no respect, as you do NOTHING to help your fellow African Americans.

As for your well know contempt of Jews, did you know that Jews were some of the biggest civil rights supporters? No, I bet you didn't, because you are as ignorant as they come.

You want a debate, bring it on! Otherwise you will continue to be seen for what you are - ignorant and weak.

58. Your supporters? Oh, do you mean the taxpayers who support your lazy black welfare ass? Well, you're not welcome. And you have no "founding fathers" here. They were all white. YOUR founding fathers sold your ancestors into slavery.
As for Black History Month, another 50 years and that will be gone-bye bye.

Posted at 5:38PM on Feb 13th 2007 by raquel

59. And that was "ciao"...was typing rather fast.

-Unfortunately, I'd hate to say this, but Raquel is right...OUR founding fathers, Farrah (assuming you truly are black) are the white men who FOUND this country and it's doctrines. I use "found" very loosely.

-You can't find blackness...you simply are black, but you can find a country. Now, I disagree that Black History month will disappear in 50 yrs. You can't erase history no matter how hard you try. So, having said that, if we all took stock in one another's histories, maybe America wouldn't be so segregated. That'd be too much like right though. Carry on.

Have a good chat, I'm wrappin' this day up.

60. 60. Hi again, Farrah... check these stats out.
http://www.adl.org/antisemitism_survey/survey_print.asp

Some of the conclusions of this survey are:
1. there is a very strong correlation between education level and likelihood of accepting anti-Jewish stereotypes. Simply put, the more-educated someone is, the less likely they are to accept anti-Semitic beliefs.

2. African-Americans continue to be significantly more likely than white Americans to hold anti-Jewish beliefs. As with whites, education level is the most important factor affecting the attitudes of blacks toward Jews. The more educated an African-American is, the less likely they are to accept anti-Semitic beliefs.

3. The most anti-Semitic Americans tend to have less day-to-day contact with Jews than does the rest of the population. In other words, they are more likely to be relying on stereotypes than experience.

So, I guess we can conclude that it is highly probably that you are uneducated and don't come into contact with Jews much.

You want a debate?... bring it on. Otherwise, we will simply continue to see you for what you are.... ignorant, uneducated and full of stupid hate.
