i will always bring u the real MJ news!
1)
R & B producer JERMAINE DUPRI is urging his fellow African Americans to offer his future brother-in-law MICHAEL JACKSON all the support they can because he deserves more respect.
The Atlanta, Georgia-based mogul, who is dating JANET JACKSON, admits he was appalled with the way America's black population turned their backs on the King of Pop when he needed them most - at the height of his child molestation trial.
He says, "It's clear that Michael was set up... What's foolish about it is that our own community jokes about it (trial). If ELVIS (PRESLEY) were still alive, they would never let anything happen to him.
"What I hate about the black community is we don't protect our own... He's the only living legend that touched all our lives."
2)
JENNIFER LOPEZ's ex-husband CRIS JUDD is begging MICHAEL JACKSON to undertake another tour - because he wants to dance for him again.
The choreographer, who was a staunch supporter of the King of Pop throughout his child molestation trial earlier this year (05), was one of Jackson's dancers on his last tour and would drop everything if his pal hit the road again.
Judd, who is currently revamping a topless revue in Las Vegas, Nevada, says, "I had been dancing for a few years when I got the call to tour with Michael. It was a wonderful experience. I'd love to do it again."
But Judd, who met Lopez when he was booked to dance in one of her videos and became her choreographer, fears the trial may have taken too much out the reclusive superstar.
He adds, "I know the trial must have taken a lot out of Michael but I think he can bounce back. I haven't spoken to him since the trouble broke but I'd love to meet up with him again. I always knew he was innocent."
3)
Rapper Missy Elliott wants to help Michael Jackson kick start his music career, by giving him a post trial makeover. The star is convinced Jackson can make a comeback following his acquittal of child molestation charges, with her help.
She says: "I would give him some thugged-out braids, a wife-beater, a pair of jeans, and penny loafers. "I'd bring him back on some next-level kind of flavour.".
4)
If Michael Jackson took Jermaine Dupri's advice, he'd be on TV flaunting his acquittal instead of retreating from the public eye.
"I was him, I would have gone on `TRL' immediately and said look, `Everybody who wanna say something about me, good, y'all could say whatever y'all wanna say, there's nothing you can say about me at this point, no more than what just happened," said Dupri, who is based in Atlanta and is dating Jackson's sister Janet.
Jackson was acquitted in June on child molestation charges.
While other scandal-plagued stars have launched the comeback route with a teary-eyed interview with Oprah Winfrey or Barbara Walters, Dupri scoffed at the suggestion that Jackson should be remorseful.
"He don't have to do that, because he didn't do nothing wrong. Everybody else did something wrong but him. What did he do wrong? Why should he come back and cry?" Dupri asked.
And though some have doubted whether the pop star could make a successful comeback, Dupri says Jackson has a magical quality that will always keep people interested.
"If Michael Jackson came in this room right now, there would be no one in this room who could not stop looking at him. As long as you've got that power, you're never damaged," Dupri told The Associated Press in a recent interview. "He has that power over anybody. If people can't stop looking at you, you're so interesting to people, there's no way you can be damaged."

7)
MICHAEL Jackson has sold his first post-trial story to the new, U.S. version of Britain's OK! magazine for a whopping $2 million, sources say.
Michael Jackson, now living in Bahrain with his three remarkably light-skinned children, has given an exclusive interview and pictorial to the just-launched weekly that makes no bones about paying celebs for interviews and pictures. But because negotiations took so long, the Jackson cover will run after OK!'s inaugural Jessica Simpson cover, set to hit local newsstands today.
One source said, "Michael Jackson was given full approval over the interview, and the questions are very softball. He got to tell his side of the story the way he wanted to." The Jackson issue is to run next week.

Why would MJ demote himself by appearing on TRL like he's an up ad coming star. JD is a fool. Always has been.
For the record; if Elvis painted his body and shared his bed with children he'd be the victim of ridicule too. When John Lennon implied the Beatles were bigger than Jesus it was taken out of context and he was attacked by the media too.
The "black community" doesn't owe MJ shit. They can either like him or dislike him as if he were any other race. I'm of greek descent, if Jim Carrey or Jennifer Aniston were getting bashed by the media I wouldn't even think about banding together with other greeks to rally for them. I'd keep living my life like a normal person, and if I thought what Jim or Jenn did was stupid I would make jokes about it. God Damn stupid racism.

MJ should keep the hell away from Missy Elliot too

Upon being introduced to Jim Carrey I was always told his father was Greek. I think I even remember it being mentioned on his TV BIO, and his father looked real Greek, but now that I am looking for it I can't seem to find any confirmation. So maybe I'm wrong. In case I am, just replace Jim Carrey with John Stamos or Anthony Kiedis and it's the same thing.

pussy is Good...thats all I can say
-
Why is JD saying African Americans should support him more and not all his fans no matter what race.
You know the people who complain about race are the first people to use it in another way.
Basically how can the public expect racism to disappear when people in the public eye still feel the need to use it for gain.
-
How can we measure how much support Michael actually received from African Americans throughout his trial?
-

We can't. Jermaine (Jackson) was just talking a bunch of shit because he was on BET. I wouldn't even be surprised if they told him to over play the race card.
"Modern day lynching"? What a bunch of shit. Every time a black guy makes the news for anything bad it's lynching according to those odd few racist blacks. The same odd few racist blacks that complain when Scott Peterson was in the news complaing about why the news gives so much attention to him but not the murders in the ghetto. True story. Someone actually said this to me. So if you do put a black guy on the news, it's racist against blacks. If you put a white guy on the news, it's also racist against blacks. Some people are just so fucked up.

it's true that mj was treated as unfairly as it gets but it ain't got shit to do with race, the media's shittin on him cause they know that's what alotta people wanna hear.
-
yea...coz he is the biggest superstar in the world...and a living legend..
-
^^yup
-
yea...coz he is the biggest superstar in the world...and a living legend..
So then why did Scott Peterson get as much attention, and why did OJ get more?
-
it's funny how the black community wants to so badly support a black guy who had surgery to make himself white :laugh:
whatever though, do what ya gotta do!
-

OJ didn't get more attention...I would say they were equal. And who the fuck is Scott Peterson?

he got a skin desease, the reason he bleeched his skin is that he would look like a fuckin zebra or somethin if he hadn't done it.

Are you fucking nuts? The fact that you do not who who Scott Peterson is tells me you don't even watch the news and therefore are out of touch with what is going on so I'll just leave the OJ remark for what it is; a stupid remark. I mean c'mon man. Maybe you aren't old enough to properly remember '94 through '96 but trust me that case was all over the place and it wouldn't go away. The MJ case wasn't all that big in the grand scheme of things.

shallow u r talkin bullshit!
MJ had international attention!Not only in USA,but all over the world!! i mean...england,germany...everywhere...80 year old people were watching the case!...the news...
i mean,no cameras in court...and still it had more attention then Iraq,sadam husein and every other news storys...OK!
...they had actors..everyday...1 guy was playing MJ and eveyrthing like it was real...
everything MJ does,has more attention than everything else!in all the magazines,tv.media!
If he would go out today,in public and said Hi to some people....next day u would have the news everywhere..."MJ WENT OUT LAST NIGHT,AND SAID HI TO SOME PEOPLE!
I mean, he went to bahrain in the middle of fuckin nowhere in Arabia...and u have the news everywhere...
SO STOP BEING AN IGNORANT IDIOT!!!!
-
shallow u r talkin bullshit!
This coming from a guy that said MJ owns all the Elvis Presley songs, and that Michael was the biggest star of the 70s. It's clear you can't see the world logically, so just stop it.
The main Elvis songs are owned by Sony/BMG, and saying MJ has a part of that is like saying MJ owns the Playstation. And 100 million the Jackson 5 sold include worldwide albums + singles, added to the 200 million album + singles MJ himself sold gives you 300 million. That is a long way away from the 1 billion albums + singles Elvis has sold.

I've heard quite few Greek jokes coming up. Is it as bad as being black? No, unless you live in Turkey, but that isn't the point I'm trying to make. The point is if you don't like a guy then you shouldn't stick up for him just because he shares your race, just like if you shouldn't put a guy down if he doesn't share your race.
