Fox News ^ | December 21, 2003 | Roberts

[Roberts]

It was an odd but supportive crowd of 600 that turned out Saturday to salute Michael Jackson in his time of need.

Among the crowd was his sister, superstar performer Janet Jackson, who came with her on-again, off again fianc

[catonsville]

Jackie Stallone, Sly's flaky embarassing mom was there.
A largely "C" list crowd.

A largely "C" list crowd.

Yeah, desperately trying to cling on to what's left of their 10 minutes (not 15, they didn't get that much).

[Oztrich Boy]

He should be convicted by a jury of his peers in a courtroom where all the facts can be laid out, but...
how yah gonna find 12 people like MJ?

[kuma]

Well, first you contact a group of men that like to
sleep with other people's little boys...

It's interesting, how being an "artist" and an "icon" can absolve so many sins. This is true inside the entertainment community as well as outside.

Apparently, the only unforgivable sin in entertainment is being a conservative.

[paulklenk]

Jackson will NOT get off if there is reasonable evidence against him, and if the police didn't screw up that evidence.

Even in a mixed-race jury, Jackson will have a hard time, because there are a lot of blacks who do not like him.

By the way, the comment about the dwarf is priceless.

[OldFriend]

I was sickened to hear Ben Stein defending Michael Jackson yesterday, insisting he doesn't believe the stories at all.

[LisaMalia]

Ben Stein? Really? I didn't see that. Sad.

[OldFriend]

He was on with Rita Cosby and several other guests who were giving their persons of the year roundup. I didn't watch the entire show but was so disappointed at Ben Stein's comments when Jackson's name came up.

[LisaMalia]

Jackson will NOT get off if there is reasonable evidence against him, and if the police didn't screw up that evidence.

Not necessarily. At all. Unfortunately.

And I don't think this has anything to do with race, it is all about the power of the "Jackson machine". With enough money, and enough access to the media, and enough spin, you can get away with anything in this country. Just ask O.J. Simpson and Teddy Kennedy.

[Dante3]

I agree.

After this Janet Jackson is not the proper person to perform at the Super Bowl.

I saw a defense attorney (Debie Opri? -- long, dark hair with the type of face one never remembers and a room temperature IQ) who was almost hysterical in support of Jackson and made nonsense statements. Showed to me that the defense in getting desperate.

[kennedy]

My sources said that Jackson did spend a big part of the dinner segment of the evening chatting with an unidentified dwarf.

[Happy2BMe]

Andre Crouch choir was there?

Seems awkward to me since Mikey just converted to Islam this week - why does he still need Christian comfort?

You can't make this stuff up!

Just damn.

If you want on the new list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

[Happy2BMe]

"More importantly, Nation of Islam Chief of Staff Leonard Muhammad was present and stuck to Jackson whether he liked it or not. Jackson seemed uncomfortable about the situation. "He tried to ditch Leonard several times by going over and having conversations with his family. Leonard would watch and wait until Michael was finished, then hook right back up with him."

I'm falsely accused!

[LisaMalia]

After this Janet Jackson is not the proper person to perform at the Super Bowl.,

I am such a Janet Jackson fan, I LOVE her music. It makes you wonder about family loyality.

I love my siblings with all of my heart, however, I would cut all ties if I knew they were guilty of child abuse. And to me, Michael Jackson has proved that many times over, in his own words.

So, Janet is added to my boycott list, sadly.

[Roberts]

What? No BARF alert with that photo? C'mon, I just ate.

[MeekOneGOP]

LOL !

Hey, did the Brits stop him from going over ?? ...

[Yossarian]

Tennis star Serena Williams, record producer Rodney Jerkins, "American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest, baseball great Darryl Strawberry, Jackie Stallone (Sly’s mom) and her daughter, hip-hop star MC Hammer, Sugar Ray singer Mark McGrath, Lionel Richie, Mario Van Peebles, comic actor Chris Tucker, and singing brothers Aaron and Nick Carter all greeted Jackson, who was wearing a knee-length blue sequined jacket and black slacks.

As impressive a list of names as your average taping of "Hollywood Squares"....

[ConservativeMan55]

LOL!
