I don't think that's a glove.


Birthday thriller for minister as Michael Jackson drops in Gold braid, chaps doing funny walks and flunkeys bearing ceremonial hairbrushes are the things of everyday life at the Palace of Westminster, so in that sense a visit by Michael Jackson was hardly going to be a thriller.

""It was just horrifying ... he was knocked to the ground," said spoon-bending psychic Uri Geller who had invited Jackson on a fund-raising charity trip to the southwest English city of Exeter."

Uri Geller and Michael Jackson..............hmmmm; one bends spoons, the other bends gender.

There seem to be only two kinds of people in the world, upon the arrival of Michael Jackson… There are those that would advance toward him, and those that would retreat. Everyone instinctively knows what he or she would do under the circumstances prior to his appearance. Go figure.

Michael Jackson was knocked to the ground Friday by excited fans fighting to touch the pop legend at a London railway station.

I wonder how much that cost him? Remember him paying to be refered to as "The King of Pop",and the fake marriage to Priscilla Presley? He/she/it/whatever pays for publicity stunts to keep the career alive,and the old girly-boy has had a hard time of it lately. His new album got almost 15 minutes of attention,and even the French have gotten tired of him. He's one step away from being a circus side-show freak.

...said spoon-bending psychic (FRAUD) Uri Geller who had invited Jackson on a fund-raising charity trip to the southwest English city of Exeter.

Good article on the Geller-Jackson friendship. Starts at paragraph 10.

Anyone can try to discredit him, but the fact of the matter, is that M Jackson has millions of women, particularly young women, enthralled with him. You can make all the smug remarks that you wish, but you cannot ignore, argue with, nor deny, his success.

The best way to measure a male's masculinity, or manliness, is by seeing how many females he attracts.

By that measure, M.Jackson is one of the most masculine men, if not the most masculine male in america, if not the world.

Everyone who criticizes M.Jackson, does not have even a tiny fraction of the number of M.Jackson woman admirers. Millions of females would do anything to be with him.

These females are not just fans, they want to be with him to date him, and go to bed with him.

I dare you to find any other male in the whole world that has so many females that are so hot for him.

They'd better keep the young British boys away from this gargoyle.

Richard Ramirez aka The Nightstalker

Even the Nightstalker had adoring fans. Heck, for that matter so did Chairman Mao, Adolph Hitler and Smiling Joe Stalin. I know that the Nightstalker was convicted of crimes, I'm not sure about the other three.

People just love a freak show.

I don't think that this blatant (and likely expensive) charade orchestrated by the Jackson PR agents will carry over to sales. Jackson is a barely recognizable washed-up has-been from 1983, and nothing is going to change that.
