Jack & Jill Politics

Rehearsals are one thing. You do them and go home if you don't feel well. Once out on the road and doing shows night after night and having to entertain a fickle audience stress takes its toll.

At home, you can sleep off the drugs and stay in bed until it's time to rehearse. On the road there are daytime interviews, publicity shoots, all of which require staying up and trying to be lively. Which means fewer drugs or drugs to keep you up. That's what the doc was for-to monitor his usage.

BTW, the whole setup reeks. A cardiologist instead of an internist, a doctor from Texas/Vegas instead of California, no support staff of nurse or nurse's aides? No mention of a thorough physical in a hospital to cover all of the bases and rule out anything that could cut the tour short. No mention of his regular doctor or if he didn't have one, contacting prior physicians. In short, it looks like a case of less-than adequate care, less than professional care.

Michael complained of chest pains the night before-why wasn't he taken to a hospital for evaluation at least? I'm sure there was no EKGs or other cardiac equipment at the house, and given the stakes for the tour, there would be no such thing as too careful. There is no excuse for it not being done, and the very least it looks like negligence.

God I am so happy I went with my instincts and did not watch this fuck fest. I knew the moment Jamie Fox was announced as the host of this production it had nowhere to go but into the depths of coonery.

Ah, Bey. This woman-child is as slow as molasses in 20 degree weather. Just simply not bright, not articulate and could not find class if she was standing in the hallway of a high school.

But I am just estatic that I missed this mockery.

MTV is putting together a tribute and I heard that So You Think You Can Dance also is also trying to put one together.

i agree with that.

his death underscores how sad his life really was.
