I was talking to my dad about it and what's very funny is that out of the BILLIONS of kids that he's been around, only 2 of them claimed he molested them.
Apparently, the 2 kids came forth and stated he never did anything and their parents made them do it for the money.
I don't have a source, but that's what I heard.

Anyway, rest in peace Michael, you'll definitely be missed.

I say if you never had evidence he molested kids, don't diss a deceased person.

Let him have his rest, he's earned that much for himself. Hope his kids will be okay. =/

They have a video of him rehearsing for the 'This Is It' tour.


He still had it.

Watching the Live Memorial at work on CNN.com, and they just wheeled out Michael's casket. So sad

I'm watching it on ABC. Mariah is singing "I'll Be There" right now.

I LOVED Maya Angelou's poem read by Queen Latifah, and am now watching Stevie Wonder's tribute song.

Gawd, Jennifer Hudson's song was so beautiful ;_;

Maybe it's the hormones, but I cried like a baby for J-Hud.

;_;

OMG, just one glance at Brooke Shield's face and I started crying again. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

Dun worry. Re-runs :3

Okay. When Michael's daughter cried, and said "I love you Daddy", I finally let the tears fall

I tried to watch but ultimately got depressed and changed the channel

I gotta handed to Michael, those kids are beautiful... I almost wanted to cry when Paris first time spoke to the audience...

and I also shocked that Marlon had a twin brother...

Don't cry. He's dancing with God.

My heart broke when she spoke. I think it was very touching and she deserved the right over anyone else to get up on that stage.

Yeah, Paris' short speech was very touching and heat-warming.... (´;ω;`) I awww'd every time they replayed that.

Yeah Jordan Chandler the kid who accused him in 1993 did, idk about the other though.

Larry King live apparently caught his "ghost" in the hallway of his room.

Don't know if it's real, but... there was a black shadow that passed by when they filmed.

I hope this is the last time I have to hear about his death.

Yes, we know, HE'S dead. I hope the news coverage will shift into something more impirtant rather than covering the scraps after this day.

I'm sorry the news displeases you. :cookie:

What's more important? Economy down the toilet? North Koreans on the edge of war?

Honestly, get a heart. Because you don't want to see it on the news, doesn't mean the others feel the same.

... MJ is not a scrap.

Just because you don't deem him important doesn't mean that other people feel the same. News stations are STILL covering the 'important' stories. It's not like everyone dropped everything and won't keep on reporting on everything.

Once the funeral and burial ceremonies are over, the news will resume. Honestly, I'd get pissed if they kept airing stuff months after his death bringing up sad stuff, but it's only been about a WEEK man! =_= Relax, you'll get your Iran/North Korea/Iraq/etc. news soon.

I'm just glad that people are focusing on his life's accomplishments instead of his scandals. Scandals are scraps, lives aren't.

Well consider the fact that nearly all major networks dispatched their anchirs and reporters to Staples Center, shelling out major buck to buy the rights to the show, while at the same time closing down their foreign offices around the world citing "lack of funds".

Well also good for you that you live in FLA, I live in LA the very core of this ridiculous affair with Show-Business where the fact that Paris Hilton forgot to put on her panties gets higher ratings than any news report. Every channel I saw, there was a tribute etc. to MJ. Also, MSNBC has played a documentary about MJ 6 times since he kicked the bucket and will play it 6 more times till August. This is whatI'm complaining about.

Of course people are looking at his accomplishments, it not like they'll dig up dirt about him now after he died. It'll surface later and then die out. Robert McNamara died today and his life has been riddeled with VietNam and the Nuclear arms race but people talk about his redemption now rather than his flaws.

I do not undrmine MJ's accomplishments right now, I think he was a great guy and a talented and hard working artist but the scale of this coverage is overlyinflated comparing to the actual magnitude of this event etc.

The scraps comment is about the news that is floating right now in the air, repeating constantly MJ like no one ever heard of him. Putting his Motown 25 performance with a rehashed collage of his performances and facts that everybody by now knows pretty well.
