Troubled king of pop Michael Jackson today had to stop of at the hospital on his way to court after he instantaneously starting to suffer from the flu. The forty-six year old was unable to re-attend and the jury selection has now been delayed until 08 00 on February the 22nd.
It is a travesty to see a slight flu cause such a delay in proceedings and clearly illustrates that this trial will drag on into eternity.
The betting suggests that this case could surpassing all records as the longest most media infested court case in the history of time, even more covered and stretched than the O.J case.
The prima donna antics of the music genius is shocking – whatever happened to taking some flu tablets, such as anadin or sudafed. Huh Michael? Lemsip Super-Ass Stength? Anybody?
See, this is what separates us mere mortals from celebrities. In the realms of court-halting illnesses, flu barely registers on the sphinter scale. Yet Peter Pan of Neverland needs hospital treatment whereas your average joe will be fine in a day or two with a little help from the pharmacy.
Here’s an interesting fact, which will help put this into perspective for you, dear reader. The late Tupac Shakur showed up to court a day after being shot five times at a Times Square Recording Studio in 1994.
What a massive difference of treatment a multi-millionaire celebrity is given during legal proceedings. Or is it maybe because Tupac was black and Michael white? No, wait a minute, we got that one wrong…
Anyhow, Michael Jackson needs his recovery time and we will have to wait for a week until the media frenzy continues. Set your alarm clock, buddy.
