Michael Jackson, you will always be loved, admired, mis-understood and remembered. All your PYT's (Pretty Young Things) will never forget you.I came home from the office last Thursday when I received a text saying Michael Jackson was in a comma. I was numb, heart racing and a whole lotta emotions. Most of all, I could not believe it... did not want to believe it. Still don't want to believe it. Turned on CNN, saw the updates and knew it was true. Michael Jackson dead at 50.
Michael Jackson was a one man, cultural icon who changed the landscape of pop culture. Do you know how powerful that is? Michael raised and CHANGED the GAME.
Think about it... One person with a dream can CHANGE the world. He had the vision, determination and gift.
To all the racist media out there -- STEP BACK & BE RESPECTFUL to Mr. Jackson's family, children and fans. Who are we to judge a man? That's not our job. Jeffrey Toobin, CNN's Legal Analyst, I am appalled at your comments and venomous reaction to the death of Michael Jackson. For shame.
I loved Michael simply because:
1) He was fine
2) Wasn't Afraid to smile
3) Had quiet power
4) He was a one man stimulus package (he brought the music industry back in the '80's and kept it going for 4 decades)
5)He loved people and gave millions of dollars to so many causes
6)He understood the power of the media and used it well for many decades
7) He loved his momma, sisters and brothers
8) Married Lisa Presley and had Elvis rolling in the grave
9)He gave us "Ben," "Off the Wall," "The Wiz," "Thriller," "She's Outta My Life," Wanna Be Startin' Something," 'Remember The Time," and countless hits
10) Michael & The Jacksons Christmas album will always be my favorite
11) What can I say ... Motown 25th and the Moonwalk
Mr. Jackson, I hope your soul is at peace. Your fans will always love you and stand up for you.
God Bless The Jackson family and provide them strength and love.
