Michael Jackson Can Do No Wrong In the Eyes of Fans


MJ's Mug Posted by Hello

I for one will always be a Michael Jackson fan. I will be a fan regardless of the way he looks, the things he says, and the sometimes grotesque activities he involves himself with. Sometimes unconditional love for someone, even someone as kooky as Jacko, has to be just that, unconditional.

Michael needs to care less what everyone is saying about him. When you are that rich and famous, you are going to be talked about even if you don't invite pre-teen boys to spend the night at your house and get indicted on molestatition charges.

Michael went through a large amount of stress during his trial. In fact, he was so distraught by the testimonies of his accusers that he checked himself into the hospital multiple times during the trial. I honestly don't know how anything in life is that stressful, but some people just aren't built for criticism.

My advice to you Mr. Jackson, not that you will ever read this, is to believe in your convictions. If you are doing what you believe, you should stand behind it no matter what anyone says about you. If I listened to all the comments people made about my lifestyle, I would have put a gun in my mouth a long time ago. No matter how cliche, you have to do what makes you happy.

When you have money like Michael Jackson, people are obviously going to take advantage of you. This is especially true when you are known for your charitable dealings with children. Of course some over-zealous parent is going to have the idea to accuse whatever necessary to tap into his monetary resources. It's not cheap raising kids these days.

I will continue to listen to all of the great music that Michael has made over the years. (Even if he loses control of his own catalog.) I certainly am not condoning sexual encounters with young children, but I will definitely keep doing the Moonwalk at every family wedding until I am so old I need a cane.
