Chapter 12,

January 30, 2005,

Tomorrow, the people versus Michael Jackson criminal trial begins and I am the only one out of us kids that knows what is going on. Dad had made me promise him that I wouldn't tell Prince, Paris, and Blanket what's going on because he doesn't want to scare them. It's really hard on me keeping such a big secret because underneath my fearless personality; I'm really scared! I do a pretty good job of hiding it though.

We are back in Los Angeles and are staying in a temporary rental house until the trial is over. I went down the hallway and into the living room. I sat down and turned on my Game Boy. Dad came into the room with Prince, Paris, and Blanket following him. I کہا "when he آپ guys doing?" He کہا "nothing much" and sat down اگلے to me on the couch. Prince sat down on the other side of me and asked "what are آپ playing?" I کہا "Pokémon Ruby" and turned the power off. Dad asked "are آپ sure that آپ don't have anything on your mind AJ?" I کہا as I went up to my room "yes dad; for the millionth time I'm fine!" He کہا "okay; I just wanted to make sure that you're okay with everything that's going on."

I shut the door and lay down on my bed. I flipped through the TV channels and change the channel to Nickelodeon. I took a deep breath and کہا to myself "I can't believe everything that's gone on in this past سال and it's all because of stupidity!" I opened up my dresser drawer and pulled out a تصویر album of pictures. Most of them taken a few months before Prince was born. As I flipped through the pages; I smiled at pictures of dad and I when I was just a few months away from turning three years old. I could hear Prince talking with Grace on the other side of my door and then I heard dad say "bye children, I'll see آپ in about four hours!"

He knocked on my door and asked "can I come in and spend the time with آپ for a while?" I کہا "yeah sure." He walked in and sat down on the bed. He dropped a big box in front of me and کہا "look what I found!" I looked inside and it was filled to the very سب, سب سے اوپر in old VHS tapes. I asked "what do آپ have all of these for?" He کہا "it's a whole bunch of ہوم فلمیں from when آپ were little and I thought آپ and I could watch them together. It might help get your mind off of things!" I was reluctant and he کہا "just watch a few at first… I'm telling آپ that it will make آپ feel better. Don't try to tell me that آپ aren't stressed out because I know آپ are! I always know when آپ are!" I asked "how did آپ know?" He کہا "I just know when my baby isn't doing well. It's part of being a dad." I rolled my eyes and کہا "dad; I'm almost 11 years old, I'm not a baby anymore!" He کہا "you may be getting older but you'll always be my baby!"

He put a videotape in the VCR and pressed the play button.

Video one:

Dated at the bottom of the screen: January, 8, 1996

We were in the living room at Neverland ranch and I was sitting on dad's lap. He started singing "champion" سے طرف کی Queen. He would sing one lyric and I would sing the next. That went on for about five مزید منٹ before I got off his lap and started playing with the toy piano that was in the room. He zoomed the camera in on my face and کہا "you want to be just like just like me when آپ grow up, don't you?" I کہا "yes!"

(Dad paused the video and کہا "even back then آپ knew what آپ want it to be!" I کہا "I still don't see the point in watching this. If anything it's making me مزید depressed! He کہا "just give me the benefit of the doubt please! That's all I ask." He switched videotapes and pressed play again as I rolled my eyes.)

Video two:

Dated at the bottom of the screen: February, 2, 1997

We were in a hotel and a woman behind the camera کہا "hi AJ!"

(I paused the video and asked dad "who's that holding the camera? I can tell سے طرف کی the voice that isn't Grace." He کہا "that Debbie. Do آپ remember her? It's been a long time since you've seen her." I کہا "yeah; I remember her. I always wondered why she stopped coming over every few months after Paris was born." He کہا "I'm sure that she is very busy but; آپ will see her again someday!")

I کہا "hi; I want to see" while pointing at the camera. She showed me what the camera was filming and then I ran off. The door opened and dad walked inside. He looked at the camera and at Debbie. He asked "you threw away that B – O – T – T – L – E آپ found last night, right? I don't want AJ to find it. I'm not ready to go into war all over again!" Debbie کہا "yeah; I thought آپ told me they آپ through all of those away a long time ago." He کہا "I did; I have no idea where she found that one last night! I had to spend 15 منٹ convincing her to give it to me!"

I came into the room and کہا "I want a drink please." He کہا "okay; I'll get آپ one." He went over to the refrigerator and took a رس, جوس box out of it. He gave it to me and I threw it on the ground. He کہا "you're not getting what I know آپ want! It's that یا nothing; understood?" I got mad and stormed off into the other room and he کہا "that's not going to get آپ anywhere and آپ know that." Debbie looked at him and asked "is she always this stubborn?" He کہا "this is nothing compared to most of her temper tantrums that she throws!" She کہا "I really don't know how آپ deal with that every single day. I wouldn't have the patience for it!" He کہا "its way worse when she knows that I want her to do something and she just 100% refuses to do it! That's the oppositional defiance disorder at its worst!


The video ended and dad کہا "that video brings back so many memories!" I rolled my eyes and کہا "oh gosh; please don't say anything embarrassing! Every time آپ say that آپ tell some embarrassing story to me about when I was little!" He کہا "right after Debbie was done filming that video…" I کہا "dad; if you're going to embarrass me please stop now!" He کہا "as I was saying; after she was done filming that video…” I کہا "seriously dad; why do آپ have to be so embarrassing all the time!" He کہا "I'm not trying to embarrass آپ but; I'm just having a hard time accepting that you're growing up." I کہا "yeah well; آپ need to accept it because there's nothing آپ can do about it! I'm not that two-year-old anymore!" He کہا "I think the only thing that needs to be accepted in the fact that you're scared and آپ don't want to admit it." I کہا "I don't know what you're talking about; I'm not scared at all!" He کہا "you're scared that at the end of this trial there is a chance that I might not come home. I know you're scared! You're not the only one; Grace is scared and so am I.” I کہا "okay dad; can آپ seriously leave my room now?" He کہا "fine but; آپ can't hide it forever! The longer آپ keep your feelings inside, the worse it will be in the long run."

February 10, 2005,

I can already tell that this trial is not going to be good on dad's health. He physically drained and all he does is sleep when he gets home. I can honestly say that I've never seen him like this in my entire life. I'm worried that if his trial lasts as long as he thinks it's going to; he is not going to be in the best shape سے طرف کی then.

It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon and dad walked through the door dressed in a suit and tie. He sat down on the سوفی, لٹانا and he just looked so sad. I walked up to him and asked "are آپ okay dad?" He didn't answer me as tears filled his eyes. I hugged him and کہا "it'll be fine! آپ have to try and stay optimistic about things because that's all آپ really can do." He کہا "I know; I just didn't want it to come to all this!" I کہا "I know that this is hard for آپ and I'm going to do my best to be well-behaved while آپ are going to all of this! I can't make any promises though because آپ know how I am!" That made him laugh and he کہا "yeah; I have a feeling that won't last very long!"

Grace came into the room and hugged dad. Dad کہا "AJ; I promise that I will be the best father that I can possibly be; even with all this going on! Don't worry… I'm not checking out as your father. There is one thing that I would like of آپ guys though. Grace asked "what's that Michael?" He کہا "the سیکنڈ I walked through that door every day, we make a habit of not talking about the trial. It's easier on me that way! I کہا "that's fine with me! I don't like talking about it either, it's depressing." He کہا "the only time the three of us will talk about the trial beyond this point is if there is a bad outcome… I doubt and hope that there won't be a bad outcome."

February 16, 2005

Today is the start of the weekend so; dad doesn't have court for a few days. I went upstairs to get something out of my room and when I looked at my Jesse McCartney poster on my دیوار there was a mustache drawn on it. I ran downstairs and کہا "you're done for Prince!" Dad کہا "wait! What are آپ talking about?" Prince smiled and ran up to his room. I کہا "Prince drew all over my Jesse McCartney poster with a sharpie marker! He's really going to regret doing that in a few minutes!" Dad کہا "hey, just calm down; besides I'm not going to let آپ beat him up on my watch! That's not going to get آپ anywhere and آپ know that." I کہا "oh I see how it is! You're just going to let him get away with drawing on my poster!" He کہا "no; I didn't say that at all! I'll make him buy آپ a new one with money from his own piggy bank." I کہا "he deserves worse than that though!" Dad کہا "stop saying stuff like that! He's your brother and آپ need to be nice to him!"

I ran up to my room and dad followed me. I went to slam the door and he stopped it with his foot. I ripped the poster off my دیوار and sat down on the edge of my bed. He sat down اگلے to me and کہا "I'm not leaving here until آپ calm down. Ever since the trial started; آپ have been having outbursts. I know exactly what's wrong and آپ do too but; you're in denial about it!" I کہا "I'm not in denial about anything!" He کہا "yes آپ are! You're کڑوا, تلخ and angry because you're scared! آپ need to talk about it because the longer آپ keep your feelings inside the worse it will be when آپ finally let them out." I کہا "I'm not scared of anything! Will آپ please leave me alone now! He کہا "this isn't about the poster at all; آپ just want to make it seem like it is!"

After about 20 منٹ of waiting for me to talk to him, dad کہا as he threw his hands up in the air feeling defeated "fine if آپ don't want to talk to me; then don't! I'm here if آپ need me but; I'm done trying for now." He left my room and I stood in the doorway listening to a conversation between him and Grace from downstairs. Dad کہا "I don't know what else to do! I know all Alanna needs to do is cry! I don't know if she's specifically mad at me یا mad at this whole situation in the first place. She won't talk to me about anything. I can tell سے طرف کی the look in her eyes that she is absolutely terrified of what's going to happen to me at the end of this trial." Grace asked "have آپ thought about where the children would end up if آپ went to prison?" He کہا "well; Blanket, Paris, and Prince would live with my mother. I haven't talked to her about the situation with AJ because honestly I don't think she can handle Alanna's ADHD and oppositional defiance disorder!" Grace کہا "if I can't handle her there's no way your elderly mother is going to be able to! I mean آپ yourself can barely deal with her!" He کہا "look at how red she turned and that was just because Prince colored on her poster! I'm worried that as AJ gets older it's going to get physical one of these times! He کہا "you know that I would never hurt her. I don't care if she hurts me but; when she's that angry it's hard to calm her down before the situation escalates!" Grace کہا "I just hope that it never reaches that point!"

March 1, 2005,

I was in the باورچی خانے, باورچی خانہ of our rental ہوم in Los Angeles and dad had just put my brothers and sister to bed. I کہا as I put dishes in the sink "I wish that the Jesse McCartney tickets were not sold out when آپ looked at them when آپ got ہوم today! Are آپ sure all of the tickets are sold out?" He کہا "I promise you; ALL the tickets for the Beautiful Soul tour are gone! You're just going to have to wait until he goes on tour when the اگلے CD comes out. I'm sorry; I really did try to get them for you. Since I had to go to court today, I had Grace go online the سیکنڈ the tickets went on sale but; سے طرف کی the time she filled out the shipping address for the tickets they were all sold out." I کہا "well; at least آپ tried! I hope it doesn't take Jesse too long to come out with a new album."

Dad got up from his chair and walked over to hug me. I کہا "I'm going to go listen to my Jesse McCartney CD before I lie down and watch TV until I fall asleep." He کہا as I walked up the stairs "I'm sorry AJ… I know how bad آپ wanted those tickets!" I کہا as I shut my bedroom door "it's fine dad; I'm not mad at you. The اگلے tour will definitely be worth the wait!" When dad had told me that he wasn’t able to get any tickets I was crushed inside! I knew it wasn't his fault and that I couldn't act upset because I didn't want to make him feel bad. I guess I'll just have to settle for listening to the CD and staring at my poster for a while.

March 9, 2005,

Dad walked through the door, after another دن in court and ended up right in the center of an argument between Grace and me. I shouted "I didn't do it so; I shouldn't be on punishment for it!" Grace کہا "yes آپ did do it; I saw you." Dad asked confused "what's going on?" Grace کہا "she was hiding video games in her room so Prince couldn't play them. When I caught her taking them out of her dresser, she کہا that the games weren't even in the cases and when I looked in them every single game was in its case. Not only did she hide the games from Prince; but she also lied right to my face!" Dad looked at me and کہا "you know that one of the things that I just can't tolerate in this house is lying! Go up to your room. No Xbox for a week starting today."

I ran up the stairs and slammed my door. I opened the door back up and yelled down the stairs "you guys are ridiculous! All I did was lie and I can't use the Xbox for a whole week!” Dad walked up to my room and shut the door. He asked with a serious look on his face "do آپ want to make it two weeks with no Xbox?" I کہا "I don't really care at this point!" He کہا "alright; then I'll change it to a ماہ if آپ don't care." I کہا while in shock "I didn't agree to a whole month; I agreed to two weeks without it!" He کہا "that's not how it works! آپ don't get to pick and choose your punishment. آپ better stop talking back to me because I'll punish آپ from using the computer and watching TV!"

I didn't say a word as he left the room and he کہا "lose the attitude; neither Grace nor I deserve to hear that!" He shut the door and I turned my TV on. I whispered to myself "they both overreact way too much!" Even though deep down I knew I deserved to be in trouble!" Nine times out of ten I deserve it; whether یا not I want to believe it!

March 15, 2005,

Today is my 11th birthday and dad is still at the courthouse but; کہا he would be ہوم in about 20 minutes. I was downstairs doing my schoolwork and was about to walk down the hallway when Grace کہا "no; آپ can go down there until your dad gets home." I looked at her confused and went back to the باورچی خانے, باورچی خانہ to sit at the table.

Dad opened the door and up ran to me. He gave me a hug and کہا "happy birthday!" I کہا "thank you" and I put my کتابیں away on the bookshelf. He کہا "come on; let's all watch a movie together in the living room!" The two of us walked into the living room and he shielded my eyes. I asked "why are آپ covering my eyes?" He moved his hands out of the way and I couldn't believe my eyes. Standing in front of me was a life-size cardboard cutout of Jesse McCartney. I shrieked and کہا "oh my gosh; for a سیکنڈ I thought that was really him; not a cardboard cutout!" Everyone started laughing and dad کہا "sit down; I have something else for you!" I sat down on the couch; leaving a space اگلے to me for dad to sit down. He passed me a big box and کہا "go ahead and open it!" Whatever was in the box weighed a lot! There must have been a whole roll of tape used on that box. I asked while they all laughed at me struggling to open the box "did آپ really have to use this much tape on it dad!"

I finally got the box open and the first thing I saw was two rolled up pieces of paper. I took them out and unraveled them. One of them was a new copy of the poster that Prince had drawn on and the other one was a different one of Jesse McCartney that was exactly the same size as the blue one. I کہا "thank you" and dad کہا "keep going; there's a whole bunch of stuff in there for you!" The اگلے thing I took out was 11 teen magazines like Tiger Beat and Bop. Dad کہا "one magazine for each سال you've been alive! I've been collecting them for about five months now.” One of the bodyguards named Will کہا "I've been the one to go buy those magazines and I can't even begin to tell آپ about some of those awkward looks I get being a grown man buying boy band magazines. It actually makes the cashiers laugh!" We all laughed and I started pulling out something else from the box. I grabbed two Jesse McCartney T-shirts and کہا "I'm going to wear these all the time!" One of the shirts کہا "Jesse McCartney: beautiful soul tour 2005." Dad کہا "since I couldn't get آپ the tickets; I figured I should buy آپ the tour T-shirt to try and make up for it!" I کہا "at least I can pretend that I got to go to the کنسرٹ when I wear this."

I hugged everyone and thanked them for the gifts. Dad کہا "I was so bummed when I couldn't buy آپ the regular tickets to the کنسرٹ because they sold-out so fast!" I کہا "that's all right; I know آپ tried." Dad کہا "I wasn't able to get آپ the tickets آپ wanted but; I hope what's inside this envelope will at least make waiting for the اگلے tour a little easier." I looked at him confused as he passed me the envelope. I looked inside and there was a folded piece of paper. I took it out and opened it up and dad کہا "read the part that I highlighted." I read it out loud "Jesse McCartney VIP experience package." I didn't understand what it was and کہا "oh that's cool; آپ got me another package of Jesse McCartney stuff that's coming in mail." Dad laughed and asked "you don't know what that is?" I کہا "yeah; it says right here that it's another Jesse McCartney package." He laughed even harder as he looked at Grace and کہا "she really doesn't know what it is!" I کہا "alright; what's going on? What's so funny? What is this piece of paper?" Grace کہا while gasping for air because she was laughing so hard "its tickets to a Jesse McCartney concert!" My mouth dropped and dad کہا "the seats are in the front row!" I was speechless and then he کہا "there's one مزید tiny detail that I forgot to mention." I asked "what else could there possibly be?" Blanket, Prince, Paris, and Grace covered their ears. Dad کہا "guess what!" I کہا "what?" He کہا "you're going to meet Jesse McCartney at the concert!!!"

I think the entire family was expecting me to let out an ear piercing scream but; what I did اگلے shocked everyone including me. I started crying uncontrollably and shaking. Once dad realized that I was crying; not screaming, he asked "what's wrong? Why are آپ crying?" I کہا "I'm so happy! I never thought I'd actually get to meet Jesse!" He smiled and hugged me. He looked like he was about to cry because he had never seen me so happy in my life!" Grace removed her hands from her ears and کہا "I didn't see that reaction coming at all! آپ made your tough tomboy cry tears of joy Michael!" Dad کہا "I'm glad آپ like the tickets that much! Are they better in the regular tickets that آپ originally wanted?" I کہا in between sobs "so much better! Thank آپ so much dad!" He کہا as his voice broke from trying to hold back tears "you're welcome! You've got to stop crying though because you're going to make me cry! I knew آپ wanted the normal tickets badly but; never in 1 million years would I have thought that آپ would cry because آپ are so happy!"

After I composed myself; I asked "who's going to take me to the concert?" Grace کہا "I will be if your dad has court that دن but; if he doesn't he is going to take you." Dad کہا "now that you've stopped crying I have to tell آپ this. آپ better be on your best behavior between now and the دن of the کنسرٹ because if آپ really do something that I don't like… I'm going to sell those tickets faster than آپ can say Jesse McCartney! Do آپ understand that I'm not messing around when I say that? I'm hundred percent serious too! I guarantee آپ that there is another girl out there that would love to meet Jesse also!" I کہا "I promise you; I'll be a whole different kid until after the concert! I don't want to lose the tickets! آپ saw how much they mean to me!" He hugged me and I کہا "I'm going to go upstairs and put my two big posters on the walls in my room! Then I'm going to take all the posters out of the magazines آپ got me and put those ones up also!" As I headed for the stairs; dad کہا "don't forget to bring your Jesse cardboard cutout and other stuff upstairs with you." I walked over and grabbed the cutout. I کہا "you're going to have to help me carry the T-shirts and magazines to my room because my hands are kind of full!" Dad tossed the two T-shirts, two big posters, and 11 magazines on my بستر with a brand-new roll of tape and a pair of scissors. He shut the door behind him as he left and I pressed play on my "Jesse McCartney: beautiful soul" CD that was in my CD player. The first track "beautiful soul" started and I moved my cardboard cutout to a corner of my bedroom. Out of all the posters I got there was a total of 23 Jesse McCartney posters that I now have up on the walls of my bedroom! I think it's so funny when dad walks سے طرف کی my room and he gets startled سے طرف کی my cardboard cutout of Jesse because it really looks like he's standing in my room! This is سے طرف کی far the best birthday I've never had… It's going to be hard for dad to سب, سب سے اوپر this one!

May 14, 2005,

I was chasing Prince around the house and dad walked through the door. Dad کہا "AJ; I need آپ to empty the dishwasher please." I کہا "I don't want to." He کہا "I wasn't asking you; I'm telling آپ to please empty the dishwasher for me." I grabbed the Xbox controller from Prince and dad کہا "I know آپ heard me AJ." I jumped over the back of the سوفی, لٹانا and switched the batteries out of the controller. Dad looked at me and کہا "remember what I کہا about the Jesse McCartney tickets! آپ better do what I told آپ to do یا I'm going to take them away from you!" I got a worried look on my face as I ran over to the dishwasher and started taking dishes out of it. He کہا "that's what I thought!!"

After I was done unloading the dishwasher, dad کہا "thank you; آپ need to go outside and take your bicycle and اقدام it out of the way because it's laying in the driveway and I don't want to have to buy آپ a new one. Someone could easily run it over!" I was about to say something when he raised his eyebrows and کہا "don't forget about the Jesse McCartney concert." I immediately ran outside and moved my bicycle out of the way. I came back inside and Grace کہا "I think that's the first time that AJ has done something without putting up a fight!"

I went upstairs to my room and about 20 منٹ later dad came in. He کہا as he sat down on the edge of my بستر "I just wanted to let آپ know that on June 15, the jury in my court case will decide whether they think I'm innocent یا guilty." I کہا "I hope they come to their senses; it's obvious that Gavin is lying and I will be really mad if آپ get sent to jail because of him!" He کہا "I know; آپ just have to think as positively as possible and hope for the best." I کہا "alright; I love آپ dad, I'm going to go to بستر now." He کہا "I love آپ مزید and I'll see آپ tomorrow afternoon when I get home." He kissed my forehead and shut off the light as he passed me the remote to my TV.

June 15, 2005,

Today's the دن that we find out if dad is going to prison یا not. Grace put a Disney movie on in Blanket's bedroom to occupy my siblings. Grace and I went into the living room and put it on the channel that will be announcing the verdict on dad's case. It seemed like it took forever to get to the point where the jury had come to their decision. Finally; a woman walked outside the courthouse and کہا "we the jury in the above entitled case find the defendant, Michael Joseph Jackson…" I whispered to myself "come on; lady hurry up!" The woman کہا "not guilty on all accounts!" Grace hugged me and I کہا "he's coming home!"

10 منٹ later, I heard the front door open and dad walked through it. I turned around, jumped over the back of the couch, and literally jumped into his arms. The both of us just started crying and he didn't even care that he was carrying me. I must've been heavy for him but; he didn't even notice. I کہا "don't ever scare me like that again!" All the emotions that I had been holding back for the entire trial just poured out right then and there! He wiped the tears off of my face and put me down on the counter top. He کہا "trust me; I'm not going to let anything like that happen again!" Blanket, Prince, and Paris came out into the living room to see what was going on. Dad hugged all three of them and blanket asked "why were آپ guys crying?" Dad کہا "never mind that; let's go watch a movie!"

While I was getting ready for bed; dad walked into my room and کہا "you must be excited for this weekend!" I looked at him confused and asked "why? What's this weekend?" He کہا "you forgot… It's the Jesse McCartney concert!" I کہا "oh yeah; so آپ have your disguise that you're going to wear when آپ take me to the concert?" He کہا "I'm just going to wear a really dark sweatshirt کے, سویاٹشارٹ and big sunglasses with a pair of faded jeans… No one will suspect that I would wear something like that!"

June 17, 2005,

I rushed to put on one of my Jesse McCartney shirts and dad and I ran out to the car. I had spiked my short blonde hair were some gel and dad sat in the drivers نشست of the Rolls-Royce. This was one of the few times that my dad had driven us himself, instead of bringing a bodyguard along to the کنسرٹ because he didn't want to blow his disguise. I could barely contain my excitement as we pulled up to the کنسرٹ arena. Dad passed me a VIP lanyard and I put it around my neck. He put his on and we got out of the car.
"
We gave one of the staff members our tickets and he کہا "all VIP concertgoers need to line up over there. There is a guide that will take آپ where آپ need to be." We walked over and I was surprised that there was only a small group of شائقین that would also be meeting Jesse. Then the guy brought us to a big room and we waited for Jesse to دکھائیں up.

Jesse walked into the room about 40 feet away from the crowd of fans. I placed myself at the end of the line. When he finally got to me he whispered "hi Michael; it's nice to see آپ again!" Jesse looked down at me and کہا "you must be AJ!" I stuttered and کہا "hi Jesse, I love you!" Jessie کہا "your dad told me that آپ have a bunch posters of me in your room!" I کہا "yeah; every time I see a magazine with آپ on the cover I buy it! I love watching آپ on "summerland" that's my پسندیدہ show." He passed me a poster he signed and کہا "that's for you!" I کہا "thanks; I love it!" He کہا "of course; anything for my number one fan. The security guards are telling me that I have to go get ready for the دکھائیں now; I hope آپ enjoy it!" Dad کہا "wait one second; I've got to take a picture of the two together before آپ leave!" Jessie کہا "you can hug me if آپ want to!" I hugged him and کہا goodbye after dad the picture.

Dad and I made it to our front row seats just as they started rolling the introduction video. The Jumbotron read "get ready… 10, 9, scream, 8, 7, I can't hear you, 6, 5, it's time for, 4, 3, 2, 1… Jesse McCartney!" Jesse came on the stage and sang each song from his album. Then Jesse brought a girl that was in a wheelchair on stage and sang "take your sweet time" to her. That was dad's پسندیدہ part of the concert, just knowing that there is still a lot of شخصیات مشہور out there that care about helping those in need as much is he does. My پسندیدہ part of the کنسرٹ was definitely getting to meet Jesse. This is the best دن of my life so far. I will never forget this day! Thank آپ so much dad only

There was angel flying In the sky
with shining light Inside
or far سٹار, ستارہ at night
I saw That angel one day
When I started To pray
to can touch
that angel so Much
I spent years and years
with alot of fears
Searching for a way
to fly with this angel in the sky
Then In one day,I closed My eyes
with alot of tears Inside
So I started to pray
Then I opened them
I felt something Inside
My دل and Mind
It Wasn't fears
Or crying tears
It Was coming To heal
the soul that was full of fear
and to take The burdnes away
It was Very hard To bear
I kept That thing Inside My heart
then I looked In the sky
I didn't Find This angel...

When Richard Nixon died in 1994, The Times observed that he had "resuscitated his reputation and emerged as an elder statesman," but "he never got his freeway back."

The reference was to California 90, between the 405 Freeway and مرینا del Rey, which state lawmakers had named in his honor in 1971.

In 1976, with Nixon's image tarnished سے طرف کی Watergate, lawmakers quietly responded to the request of local Chamber of Commerce officials and took his name off the 2.5-mile roadway. The Nixon Freeway became the مرینا Freeway.

The episode illustrates how naming a geographical place in honor of a living...

I could simply come here and define "This It It", but I don't have the exact words that could make him justice. So, all I can do is try.

This movie meant مزید to me that any videoclip یا any concert. Finally, I felt really close of his creativity, his love for what he have done over than 45 years, the way he put his heart, body and soul to the service of art.

When he did "Human Nature", I think my دل has melted. His devotion for the song was unbelievable. He felt each musical note, each word, each moment, each sound.

" I Just Can't Stop Loving You" was an interpretation full of passion. Backing...

It’s a few beats slower than Micheal Jackson’s “The Way آپ Make Me Feel,” but Ne-Yo‘s new video for “One in a Million” recalls the gloved one’s 1987 girl-chasing clip. Instead of following a vixen ہے, وساان through an alley in the middle of the night with a posse of dancing goons, Ne-Yo and a gang of gentlemen prance through city streets clean in shirts, slacks, and wingtips.



Ne-Yo, a self-described M.J. fanatic, does a wonderful job being true to himself without turning this into a corny carbon copy. I can see Jackson’s influence. But there’s no crotch-grabbing plagiarism. The smooth mid-tempo cut is the third single from the singer/songwriter’s forthcoming album, Libra Scale. Check out the video to see if Ne-Yo’s charming ways, wizardry, and smooth steps actually win the girl over after the jump.

Katherine Jackson says she vividly remembers the first time she knew MJ would be a superstar -- and it all harkens back to the time baby Michael danced to the rhythm of an old washing machine.


According to Mama Jackson, the King of Pop-in-a-diaper danced to the rhythm of the family's old Maytag washing machine with "perfect timing" -- and she knew right then and there that her son was destined for greatness.

The video is all part of a longer interview from the website selling Katherine's book -- and we're told آپ can expect to see the whole thing in a big documentary about MJ's life.
I was a junior in highschool when my friend Michael Jackson asked me to go on tour with him. He was spending the summer in Europe staging the largest ever (at the time) rock tour for his latest album DANGEROUS. I begged and pleaded with my parents to let me go. We'd known Michael for a few years سے طرف کی then and grown quite close. He'd even come and stayed at our house in suburban Boston for a few days. Who could forget the time he clumsily tried to make his بستر in the guestroom in the morning in an effort to impress my mother so he might be invited back? یا the ill-fated breakfast he tried to cook...

I read in a magazine that Michaels's coffin was open and his body was gone. Do آپ think that this means he rose up and is coming into this world? یا did someone take his body all for his/her own selfish goods? It all remains a mystery. Do آپ have what it takes to solve it? It all happened so soon... Died at fifty, somebody took Michael out of his expensive coffin, and now his pale, dead body is gone. No one knows where the person is keeping it. It could be you!!! If it is, آپ know you'll be caught, no doubt. So, I suggest that آپ 'fess up. It's all fact. I told a few people and they freaked out.

The first shipment of Katherine Jackson's coffee میز, جدول book about Michael Jackson isn't exactly flying off the shelves in Gary, Indiana. In fact the کتابیں never even made it to the shelves, because they were stolen.


A rep from the publisher, Vintage Pop, tells TMZ they FedEx'd seven boxes of "Never Can Say Goodbye" to the ہوم of a Jackson family friend in Gary ... and they were supposed to end up for sale at the new MJ monument. But someone absolutely, positively wanted them so badly, they چرا لیا, چوری کی them right off the front steps of the house where they were left.
 Always think of آپ each and every day. I miss آپ still.

My goodness, it seems so short a time پہلے when I turned on TV one morning last June to see the news which so shocked and stunned me. While not a پرستار (at the time), I never knew this would affect up like this to me. Nevertheless i always held a respect and admiration for Michael Jackson as having such great talent, showmanship and a decent good human being also.

I love آپ beyond words... Everyday i wish deep in my دل that it all was a bad dream , that maybe I will wake up and just see your wonderful laughter and your beautiful soul filled with life again.. but if wishes were horses , they...

Kenny Ortega is a fabulous person and we really appreciated his time. Here’s what he had to tell us about his new film and his historic collaboration with Michael Jackson:

Q: Have آپ had any sleep?

KO: آپ know, I haven’t had any sleep for the last few months. I haven’t. During the rehearsals, I worked pretty late hours and then we did the memorial and then we started up on the film and the film was 14 hours a day, seven days a week, every week since we started and then we handed the movie over and it was like mixing. We just came back from 10 days out on the road starting in Chicago with...

Michael Jackson was different, a special different who was perhaps the only celebrity who cared about the world, not just themselves!.
He was just so kindhearted and beautiful and had the cleanest soul I'd ever imagine.
He gave money to over 35 charities, to help children in need. He thought he could make a difference and he did, a huge difference.
Michael had talent, not talent like Elvis, but his own Type of talent. He takes my breathe away, he calms me down when I'm angry and I can hear him sometimes when I'm about to do something that I might regret, It helps hes like my own personal hero,...

Hello everybody!!

you all guys must be aware that some Michael شائقین are giving bribes to the security guards to have a glimpse of Micheal's tomb. As a die hard and a helpless پرستار of mj maybe me too would have gone to any extent for Michael. there are some lucky people who have been able to attend his concerts and the most fortunate people have met him face to face.
but for the others, all they can do is just dream about him یا visit his tomb! But what bothers me when i heard this news is that it is written that شائقین were posing for inappropriate and even disrespectful تصاویر AND the tomb was...

All alone wishing on stars
Waiting for آپ to find me
One sweet night I knew I would see
A stranger who'd be my friend

When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells آپ never be afraid
Then somewhere in your دل آپ can feel the glow
A light to keep آپ warm when the night winds blow
Like it was written in the stars I knew
My friend, my someone in the dark was you

Promise me we'll always be
Walking the world together
Hand in hand where dreams never end
My سٹار, ستارہ secret friend and me

When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark...
