The King of Pop was begged to perform by President-elect Obama.
The list of celebrities invited to the Obama inauguration is growing by leaps and bounds, but one name will be conspicuously missing from the line up. Reps for the Obama camp claim Michael Jackson was personally invited by Obama, but turned down the invitation.
Sources tell us that Obama almost begged Michael to attend but was unable to convince him. The refusal to attend the inaugaration lead many Obama organizers to speculate that Jackson is indeed ill, and his medical condition wont allow him to perform to his high standards.
Said one Obama supporter, Who turns down an invite from President Obama? You gotta be on your death bed
Nevertheless, the show must go on and below are a few performers and celebrities proposed to be in attendance.
In the line-up: Stevie Wonder, Barbra Streisand, and Bruce Springsteen, will headline events around Washington.
The Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus will host a teen event sponsored by Disney.
Jay-Z will be the primary Hip Hop representative and also the largest gathering of them all.
Of course, there will be a well-spring of unofficial parties, but if youre like most Americans, youll be watching it on TV.
er if michael was really ill why did they organise those return concerts
Cause Obama will try and look popular to everyone...just
another sad Democrat(hey, you repubs. ain’t too hot either)
trying to pretend he is a man of the people. Obama
wasn’t even aware of Michael Jacksons incredible sad state
of being. Shows incredibly pooooor judgement on Obamas part.
On the other hand, birds of a feather....i.e. two completely
out of touch FAMOUS people.....time to start ignoring
Obama....
don’t you love how they used “almost begged” In other words, didn’t beg.
Thats like I almost begged you to come to my party, but I didn’t bother to ask. Its basically a NONSTORY
I almost had a car accident as I gradually came to a stop at the traffic light.
Write an article about it.
“I almost died today”
Dear Leader has little girls...not little boys. MJ would have been bored...
Prophetic.
That’s a good picture when he was at the top of his game. He looked so much better when he had the face God gave him.
I’m more interested in who’s going to perform at his impeachment or when the Army surrounds the White House and drags him out by his ears and puts him on a plane to Kenya.
Whoa. That’s a great photo.\ of him with Ronald Reagan.
I have renewed admiration for Michael Jackson.
Can we send that to 0?
Michael waves good-bye to 0. LOL
What a narcissist son of a bitch.
Now, I'd pay serious money for a seat to watch that.
True, where were Ax, Janet and Rahm?
Johnny’s sidekick, Farrah and MJ at the same hospital and now Billy Mays (OxyClean)... if I didn’t know better, i’d think this was a distraction. But then again, many seem to get sick, hospitalized or pass on around the O. /s
Maybe MJ wasn’t clued in on helping his muslim brothers when in need.
pardon me if I don’t give a sh! about this sort of popular culture drivel.
LOL!! I like that one!
A president with daughters, not sons.
