Information on Michael Jackson

Answer 1

June 25th, 2009 - A call to the LAPD was made, a man wasn't breathing. They tried CPR and any method possible. It was believed that man died, and out of all odds, that man was Michael Jackson. Who is Michael Jackson? Question is, who wasn't Michael Jackson?

Michael Jackson was and will forever be the King of Pop. Past away at the age of 50, which may seem a little too soon. I never really knew much about this man people would call "King". As a matter of fact, I didn't know anything specific about the King. However, I took the time to learn a bit about him. I've watched his habits and his lifestyle, and it caused me to be so sadden.

Michael Jackson had it all, from the cars to the money, to the ranch and the houses. But one thing he didn't have was privacy. He didn't have freedom. He had a camera following his every move since the age of five. Michael Jackson was an African-American who started his career in the Jackson 5. However, as years tend to pass, his skin color turned lighter and lighter, to an almost pale complexion. People would criticize this young man, instead of understand him. He isn't God. However in some people's eyes, he was "God like". Michael suffered through a skin disease. It wasn't anything he could control. "Michael, why did your skin color suddenly turn white?", some may ask. "Don't as me, ask God. I don't know why I have vitiligo.", Michael answered. And I get so hostile because all this man wants to do is walk through a grocery store without the press stalking him, hunting him down, like an animal. At this point, I've grown to despise the press. Michael's fans would always chant: "F*** the press! Michael you're the best!". And it always turns a smile on the young mans face.

I've stumbled across a documentary about Jackson's life. It's called, "Living with Michael Jackson". And as I continued to watch that documentary, I've become so disgusted and so angry. I was not however, disgusted with what Michael did and how he lived. I was disgusted by the reporter/journalist, Martin Bashir.

Martin Bashir took full advantage of Jackson's kindness and criticized him. Bashir tried to send out a false image of the King. He asked him multiple questions that made Jackson extremely uncomfortable. Moreover, at the end of the interview, Bashir caused Jackson to end in tears. He questioned him about his facial features multiple times. Bashir asked Michael about his plastic surgery and Jackson told the journalist that he only had surgery on his nose two times. At this point, that's all you need to know. However, Bashir wasn't satisfied, he kept asking Jackson about his face which obviously made Michael insecure and uncomfortable. I wonder if he would like it if I asked him why he looks like a toad. I wonder how uncomfortable he would feel if I asked him about his facial features. Why his nose is like that and why his eyebrows are like that. I know he wouldn't like it. I know I wouldn't like it. No body should be put under the pressure like that.

As I continued to watch the video, I've learned that Michael's past was horrible. Michael Jackson was abused by his father at a young age. He was afraid of his father and admitted to fainting and vomiting when he seen his presence. No child should ever feel this way towards their father. It was unbelievable that the perfect Michael Jackson had to go through so many trials and tribulations in his life to get to where he was. Michael's father was one of the reason why Michael had insecurities. His father would always tease him about his nose. "Why do you have such a big nose? I know you didn't get it on my side of the family!", his dad would say to him. And I completely understand if his father was joking, because fathers and sons would usually tend to joke around like that. However, Michael knew he wasn't joking, because Mr. Jackson didn't even crack a smile while criticizing him. I know how hard it must be for Michael to expose his life like that. Michael admitted that it was embarrassing. Yet it didn't seem to bother Bashir about how Michael felt.

There was also a part in the interview that Bashir made Michael seem like a disgusting pedophile. I know some people believed those rumours and honestly, if that's how you feel then so be it. However, I didn't like how Bashir addressed Jackson in the video. Bashir turned every sentence Michael made into something completely opposite. Bashir made it seem like Michael was doing something sexual with the children he brings over. And Michael would respond honestly about it. Yet again, Bashir wanted more. People didn't understand why Michael would invite bus loads of children over to Neverland. People didn't understand why a grown man would create Neverland. The answer to that is because Jackson never had a childhood. He never got to experience the things that a normal child would experience. Therefore, he created Neverland, a place where the child inside of Michael can come out. While most children would be out playing Basketball or going to the mall with their friends, Michael would be inside the studio working. He never had a childhood, plain and simple. That reason and the fact that Michael has an unbelievable love for children. He absolutely adores children. Michael has three children of his own. Prince Michael Jackson I, Paris Jackson, and Prince Michael Jackson II (AKA Blanket). The first two children's mother is Debbie Rowe, as far as I am concerned. The third child's mother is a surrogate mother. Although I have complete respect to Michael and the Jackson family. I don't understand how these children are bi-racial but they do not look the part. However, that is not what I tend to get into. Only Michael and the mothers of the children knows the complete truth about it. As far as I am concerned, Michael Jackson is the father of these children because he raised them himself and cared for them like a father is suppose to. The fact that he is their biological father or not, I do not know. Michael remembered the hatred that he had for his father and would never want his children to feel that way. Therefore, that gave Jackson a more of a reason to love his child endlessly.

I don't want to get carried away with this entry. Michael Jackson is one of the most sincere, caring, kind and sweetest man. He spends a lot of his time caring for children with disabilities and orphans. He donated millions of dollars to charities. Jackson's life was so hard, that he never really had a true love. He never really had a wife to spend the rest of his life with. He deserved to be happy. It was hard for him to even hire staff because he was afraid that they were using him just for his fame. It was hard to live the life of Michael Jackson. Someone so famous, yet so sad. He was lonely. He never had a chance to have any childhood friends. His brothers were his friends while growing up. Of course he met many celebrities and became close to them. I would have to admit that I love seeing clips of Michael and Chris Tucker. Chris would always make Michael smile. It was an incredible thing to watch. You see a smile on Michael that you would never see. Watching clips of him and Janet were also incredible. They would love to play with super soakers and have water balloon fights. Michael was never known to be an outgoing guy. I suggest some people to YouTube his happy moments. It's precious.

Michael Jackson, you deserve all the happiness in the world. You are in a better place now. With no paparazzi, no press, and no journalist to bombard you. You will always be remembered as the King of Pop. You changed the world day by day. The world will never be the same without you. You will forever live in our hearts. Rest in forever peace. Your fans will always love you.
