He was very wealthy, yet had money trouble. A couple years ago he almost lost 'NeverLand' because he couldn't pay off the loan. A different loan company paid it off so that he could keep 'NeverLand', so now that loan company owns part of it.Quote:

He definitely was a huge musician and will be remembered. RIP.
R.I.P MJ. You were a great singer and performer and will be remembered. <3
Oh lawds, just because "the court system" said he was not guilty, it means it is true? :duh:Quote:

Anyways, I don't make jokes about his death, or about any of his accusations, just I bet the majority of you would have easily said any of those a few days ago, or have said quite a few in the past...
i trollin for teh lulz
Yeah, sucks that he died, he was great, etc etc etc. Not being sarcastic in this manner.
sure that's now making fun of his death. Kid.Quote:

Guess he was very popular in Africa too
REST IN PEACE Michael Jackson.
He was a true legend of making music...
I wasn`t real fan of him, but its sad that he was only 50 years old, when died :(
This is becoming more of a disgraceful thread than a RIP thread :/ Just lock this, it sucks. Like [-Jesus-]'s post and tomtuff (that was extremly lame :/) its just terrible.
Agreed.Quote:

R.I.P MJ!
It scares me how similar age he is to my dad, a difference of about 2 weeks, same thing could happen to him.
Its a shame no where near as many people cared about Colin McRae dying,someone I actually knew more about.
RIP.
Scary thing is, he is my Dad's age :O RIP mate.
Joker, you look a lot more childish than Harry at the moment, so give over.
MJ was a talented artist and musician, but that does not make his death any more significant than any other death in the world. He has not changed any of our lives in any meaningful way (unless you listen to his songs like they are the bible [not getting religious here]). He is just another guy who dies.Quote:
What can Michael Jackson never fully complete? De-composition
I don't care if he did or didn't do what he has been accused of in court, but I could never forgive him for doing said atrocoties. I believe he won because he had so much money he could pay for any lawyer he wants. There was good evidence against him, and in his favour. We cannot know.
This thread is not needed, but moreover, is very pointless. It is understandable to be saddened by his death, but let other people have their opinions. If people think he was a Child Molester, then let them have their opinion. They ARE entitled to it, after all, didn't God create every one equal, meaning everyone has an equal say in things.
My opinion? I hope the devil shoves a pitchfork up his arse for the rest of eternity.
MJ influenced a lot of people's lives, changed entire child hoods. Most here are too young to remember buying their first tape-recorder and listening to michael jackson, but the rest of the world remembers it fondly.Quote:
