I hate to laugh at MJ, even though I have to avert my eyes from his repulsiveness these days. He was once a great man: I think Thriller stands the test of time as one of the greatest pop albums ever made. If only he had died subsequent to, say, moonwalker, we all could have been spared a painful spectacle. Poor MJ.

it is so sad. the irony of it all was that he was quite handsome just the way he was pre-plastic surgery and of course, pre-disease. it’s just so sad! and he’s so talented! i agree with amy - Thriller is in my top five of all time, for sure. and that is only taking a backseat to something like DSOTM… which is saying a *lot*.

It just made me sad. I have no great admiration or disdain for the man, I just feel sorry for him. There must be a lot of stuff there all cooped up.

Ariel, have you seen the news about Michael dangling a baby from a hotel window? He’s crazy! Look it up..it’s frightening.
