Oh for God's sake. He could sing and dance, appeared to be inherently selfish and bought his way out of some very serious charges. Get over it.frustrated

I think he was speaking symbolically rather than literally.

Jade Goody was almost canonised in the media before she died.

The only similarity between the two is that they both died young.

Totally different individuals. For one thing, Wacko Jacko had a talent for something other than annoying people.

I think they should both be made saints in minor celebrity heaven. Then the door should be locked and the key lost.

I don't seem to remember him doing anything for anyone other than himself. He spent millions on trash for self amusemt as he sang the Earth Song to us. To my knowledge he never performed a single charity concert. And now his funeral has no doubt pulled in more promotional millions. And these morons out there believe this guy is some sort of demi god.very mad very mad very mad

Hi Hon. How's you? Jaysus, Sky News will be lost for something to broadcast now that he's been planted. Now tell me and I know he wasn't found guilty but would you have let him baby sit your kids?

Michael Jackson supported over 36 charities, in his life time he gave millions to charities. The list of people who he met through charity work is endless. He is recognised in the guinness book of records for his work.

So for whatever else he was, you cant say he didnt care about other people, he helped make a lot of peoples lives much better and comforted the sick and dying.
He also left a percentage of his wealth to charity.

For that alone i applause him..

well said i cant say i liked him much but credit where its due. That said I like him singing black or white [ dont know the title] it always seamed ironic [ he couldnt make his mind up ]

Yes of course he was , but he used his money and fame to enhance the lives of many. Without people like him giving millions to charities im sure many of them wud be worse off.
There are loads of celebs out there who dont give anything and dont care either dunno JMO

The person whose MJ used his money and fame to enhance and change most of all was himself.
