Um, how FINE are those Jackson men? All of them, even the ones I <shamefacedly> don't recognize…

Justice58
Yeah, baby! He did it!
moja31
any bets on what the media meme will be coming out of this? i've got $10 on “it was too laudatory, why didn't his friends & family dwell on the sad parts of his life?”
god i just want to eat this little kid up, he's too cute for words!
Justice58

unless there's a dance portion of this, i don't expect to see justin.
is chris brown really going to be performing?

Beyonce's probably scared Janet will whip out Joe's belt when she stands there and tries to make it about her rather than Michael.

This memorial shut the media down.There's not a darn thing they can say,and if they insist on going negative,they'll be seen for the cnynical, manipulative sharks that they are. There's nothing for them to say, to twist, to spin. The memorial was inimitable, worthy of the greatest entertainer who ever lived.

Janet grabbed Paris like only an auntie can….pulled her to her bosom and held her tight….I dont ever wanna hear shit about they aren't really Michael's kids…bullshit. That was all family on that stage.
Justice58
You're making me cry! A strong family standing together.

Listening to Larry King's very positive reaction, it's abundantly clear that white people still know nothing about how we do a Homegoing.

Greta said after experiencing that that maybe they (Faux, the media) have been too hard on Michael.

hey u guys when i think of the negative things that people have said bout Michael i always get reminded of the lat great Ossie Davis speech that he gave at Malcolm X's funeral………….
Many will ask what the world finds to honor in this stormy, controversial and bold young captain—and we will smile. Many will say turn away—away from this man; for he is not a man but a demon, a monster, a perverter and an enemy of the black man—and we will smile. They will say that he is of craziness—who can only bring evil to the cause for which you struggle! And we will answer and say to them:
Did you ever talk to Brother Michael? Did you ever touch him or have him smile at you? Did you ever really listen to him? Did he ever do a mean thing? Was he ever himself associated with violence or any public disturbance? For if you did, you would know him. And if you knew him, you would know why we must honor him: Michael was our manhood, our living, black manhood!
This was his meaning to his people. And, in honoring him, we honor the best in ourselves.
APeach
Who could blame him? He absolutely baled on her. If he was a stand up MAN, he would have defended her.
I was just thinking about this today. I am at an absolute loss, to this day, why there was so much made of it. You had to capture the image and play it back over and again to be “outraged.” What did she ever do to deserve all that?
Shoot–I was more embarrassed by all the penis drug commercials! And yes, my parents were at our home watching, too.

Did she really say that?

They didn't know what a repast was on MSNBC.
pjamma
Yes.
