I can't stand her and her sanctimonious crap. Their are a lot sleazy people on tv. But she is about The Worst (gratuitous stones reference).

I also just finished watching Larry King's interview with Jermaine Jackson from Neverland. All I can say is Jermaine is a top notch class act. Larry King is is an ignorant, pompous jerk.

Larry King is an embarrassment. He should have been off air a couple of years ago. Really terrible with his interviews. Senility has set in.

Jermaine is stepping up, and I feel he will be a great influence on the kids.

Debbie Rowe should respect Michaels wish, a very important one for him, and let it go.

Larry King has all the strength and fortitude of a Carvel ice cream cone. He is the wimpmaster.

Nancy Grace is hideous.

I agree that Michael took these steps to a new level in a new, contemporary context, and added many more.

Almost all creative people, imo, even those called geniuses or unique talents borrow heavily from the past. Fred Astaire,
featured in the video along with many others (mainly black tap dancers of the first half of the 20th century) told Michael
he was a good dancer, a compliment I understand was rather rare from him.

I'm not sure whether this could be true or not, but I was at a show yesterday evening and got talking to a couple of people next to me, and this particular woman swore blind that she'd heard or read the following: that of the 50 O2 shows that Jackson was going to do, the shows were structured in such a way that Jackson himself was actually going to put in only 13 (yes thirteen) minutes on stage per show. Which if true, would kind of beg the question ... how the hell was he planning on filling the remaining one hour and forty seven minutes of the show (assuming they'd be approx 2 hours long) ?

Sounded like another tabloid tale to me, but could it have a grain of truth in it ? Anyone else heard anything like it ?

Think it's called doing a 'James Brown', Paulywaul. In his later years JB would have an MC sing most of his hits for him and would only be on stage for key moments. I can well believe it as the show would have been more of a son et lumiere spectacle relying more on dancers and backing musicians.

My brother has a contact who works at The 02. MJ was contactually obliged to SING live for 13 minutes. The rest would be lip synced.

He also reliably informs my that Take That are booked to play with Robbie William next summer....

Well that's truly pathetic if that's really the case. Maybe it's best he expired from this planet early, there's quite enough piss taking going on in the world as it is, without that kind of bullshit. He's selling £700 VIP packages for a thirteen minute sing song and then a further couple of hours of lip sync bollocks ? Joker ... and con artist !

You know I've always wondered how one knows for sure whether anyone is ever lip synching or not. Criticize our boys all you want for always screwing up the lyrics and what not, but the songs sound different almost every single night, thereby proving that they NEVER lip sync! winking smiley
