16. #6 MJ may have been a 50 biologically but everyone knows that he was a giant kid. He never had a childhood, thats the reason why he always hung around with kids and played games. There is a youtube video of him having water gun fights with a bunch of kids at his house. and MCauley and MJ dropping water balloons down to ppl at a hotel in the Bahamas. Well MJ wasn't dropping them, he autographed them and McCauley would drop them off the balcony.He was a kid at heart..thats all...there's nothing wrong with that especially when you were robbed of your childhood. You negative people stop judging him. He has done more for humanity thatn everyone posting on this site put together, so keep all of your negative comments to yourself.
How much $ and time have you all donated to charities, huh?????

18. Seriously? everyone is coming out now and saying that he was begging for drugs! after he dies you come out and say that! why the hell didnt you say it when he was alive so people could stop it? SO his docter,trainer,nurse and who ever else he asked for drugs practicly killed him because they kept it a secret and waited till he was dead! this gets me so effing mad!! and i dont even believe it because Michael had kids that he love MORE THAN THE WORLD! he would never want to overdse or do anything to kill himself! he wanted to live for his kids and be there through their life! but as soon as that drug thing came out frm his doctor everyone that knew MJ started making up stories about it just to get on TV and talk about his life now that he is dead they can say watever they want now! The only way Michael would overdose is if someone gave him somthing without him knowing! which alot think his doctor did! But seriously you people saying this stuff now are effing jerks and should be ashamed because you had part in killing him but not saying anything! thats all i have to say im diguisted with these people! R.I.P MICHAEL JOSEPH JACKSON! WE LOVE AND MISS YOU! I WISH THE BEST OF LUCK TO YOUR BEAUTIFUL KIDS AND MOTHER!!!!!!!!

19. BREAKING NEWS----


Investigators announce appaesrance of second Jackson Will ... Will Ferrell has filed a claim in LA Superior Court alleging He is the rightful heir to the Jackson Fortune. Will claims he and Jackson married secretly while Will was on the set of Old SChool. The marriage was so clandestine, not even Will's wife or kid knew anything about it. When reached for comment, Will announced proudly: "Yes... Michael and I were lovers and, like Ellen, married homosexuals. I grieve now, but tomorrow... I'm going after those Sony music catalogues..." Will then added, "I don't want the kids though. Quincy Jones or Faye Dunaway can have them."

22. Yes it's apparent he used the same name to make a prank call but TMZ has apparently twisted this to be included into the drug abuse? He just happened to use the name Omar for the prank call now you guys are making it seem like the fun MJ was having with Lou is connected to the aliases. Lou was providing very positive memories of MJ which we haven't heard from many people at this time...they were very personal and it provided a little bit of an insight into who MJ was around the people he trusted or felt comfortable enough to talk to.

23. PERSONAL TRAINER?????
The ONLY thing that was "TRAINED" on MJ was his eye lashes....he wouldn't pick up anything heavier than a young boy, and I doubt he EVER used a weight a day in his life. Most likely, he liked the thought of having the HULK training him, and looking at Lou's tight bod....but TRAINING????
Naaaaa........
and now Lou and everybody else can hop on the O.J. make-my-career-come-back band wagon and use MJ to resurrect their own careers. HOW IRRELEVANT IS LOU FREGGIN FERRIGNO in 2009.....actually I thought he was DEAD....!

26. all of you can keep guessing and commenting negative things but understand one thing and understand it clearly HE WAS NEVER FOUND GUILTY!!!! You can guess what his situation may have been with Lupus but may not know anything until you walk into the shoes of a lupus patient. I understand people are entitled to their opinions but remember you to may have difficult times ahead. How do you think it would feel to be treated this way ? Keep in mind this is a man who gave back so much it set a record. He cared about people and he has a spirit that loved more than any of you will ever know because all you want to see are the negative things. He may have been bruised but his spirit was never broken he still loved and gave back anyway. How many others do you know who would be able to do that? Not one of us have walked in his shoes and there will never be another to fill them either that is why his passing has shocked the world he didn't look with his eyes but he saw with heart...May he Rest In Peace.

27. I'm totally confused how any of you think loving his kids meant literally knocking himself out with drugs to sleep. This guy wasn't taking tylenol pm to get some sleep.

28. Everyone else in the world has to take personal responsibility for their life except Michael because he is a big kid. He didn't look like a big kid to me when he was grabbing his private parts on stage and way he danced. You can't have it both ways......

29. Lou, you can bs all you want, MJ was an addict. He probably was in terrible shape, but took drugs so he could train with Lou and go on tour. If the DEA is involved, it is pretty serious so stop sugar-coating it.

TMZ, are you going to cover anyone else besides MJ?

Posted at 1:24PM on Jul 2nd 2009 by There is no such thing as reality tv

30. Wow MJ's friends were such liars......................he said earlier he never seen or knew of him doing drugs..................they need to learn how to lie better ...............and stick to one story.......but it is okay DEA agents and LAPD will crack this wide open........................I am praying that everyone involed gets their due deligence.....................damn $$$$$ is the root to all evil..........................Let us Pray!
