I would think that you could find better things to do with your time. However, this is not why I am posting a comment. I have to agree with my fellow Migraineurs and others who suffer from vertigo. Both are serious, disabling diseases. Migraine is not "a bit of a headache"; it is nausea; aversion to light, sound, and smells; and then there is the headache: it feels like my head is going to explode. Every bit of my body hurts including my hair and teeth. I cannot stand being touched. Mocking people is bad; mocking disease is worse. a-migraineur Your website obviously exists to slam and mock most Hollywood stars.

Like Megan, Leeloo and Heather I really don't take issue with you mocking Janet Jackson, but I do take issue when Migraine disease is trivialized. It's not just "a bit of a headache". It is a genetic neurological disease, and in the case of MAV patients, the vertigo is often more disabling than the pain itself. Please do feel free to continue mocking celebrities, but I ask you think twice the next time you mock their (very real) diseases. I am also a chronic Migraine and MAV sufferer.

This is a disease that I like so many others have. It is a dibilitating disease. It is a neurological disease and it is more than "just a headache". Like Janet Jackson, I have been treated at the ER for my Migraines. I could care less about what you say about Janet Jackson but you do not have the right to trivialize her medical condition. If not treated properly, people can died from this disease and are at much great risk for strokes. I hope that you are a little bit more educated and a little bit more sensitve when it comes to people's health. Mr. Stuart,

Since Migraine is recognized as a neurological disorder, I think it's inadequate to reference her malady as a "bit of a headache." You can have Migraines without the head pain too. So-called "normal" headaches don't leave you heaving and gasping over the toilet, or take away your vision, or make you slur your speech, or lose you balance because you're not getting enough oxygen to the brain.

It's not a bit of a headache. It's a neurological disease, with a significant increased stroke risk, and is hell to live with. Migraine, in general, is recognized by the World Health Organization as one of the most disabling conditions world-wide.

It took three years and over a dozen specialists to diagnosis me because it is such a rare condition. I was sixteen, and no, I wasn't pregnant. But it completely destroyed my life at the time because I was a world class performance horse rider and it's impossible to ride with this. To this day I still have little to no distance perception. God bless her. I actually suffer from this. It took three years and over a dozen specialists to diagnosis me because it is such a rare condition. I was sixteen, and no, I wasn’t pregnant.

What will you do if Ms. Jackson lives to 70? Mr. Whetstine, do you SERIOUSLY think that reaching an advanced age somehow diminishes an artist’s body of work?
What will you do if Ms. Jackson lives to 70?
