Michael Jackson’s death may well be very sad for those who still bought his albums post-Dangerous (yes, these people actually exist), but it hasn’t been all bad news for the world.
You see, like deep sea creatures gorging on the carcass of a dead whale, Michael Jackson’s cadaver has created something of a cottage industry, where everyone is making a nice living out of an injection of Propofol.
And one person doing very well out of Michael’s death is Jermaine Jackson who, ironically enough, is paying his mortgage by scalding everyone who is making money out of Michael’s deathly mishap.
So what’s the deal?
Well first off, Jermaine thinks that MJ was killed by greed, power and money. Again, that Propofol may have something to do with it and years of alleged substance abuse. But yeah, greed, power and money.
Speaking before the manslaughter trial of Conrad Murray (coming to a TV near you later this month), Jermaine says that those surrounding his brother failed to look after him, as they pushed him to play his money spinning comeback gigs.
Of course, you could argue that Jermaine failed to pick the phone up frequently enough to make sure his quite obviously ill for a number of years brother was up to the job.
JJ say:
“Why didn’t somebody call me or Jackie or Tito or Marlon or his family, to say, ‘Come down here, your brother is not acting normal?’ Had we been called, he would be alive today. We would have taken him to the hospital”
“Because they wanted the show to go on… It’s all about — this is a story about greed and power and money. And not looking at the person in Michael.”
That’s Jermaine Jackson there, who is currently promoting a book he’s written about Michael Jackson. A book that he wasn’t writing when his brother was alive.

are you serious? The HIStory album (1995) sold more than many hugely succesful artists in their whole career. Blood On The Dancefloor (1997) was the biggest selling remix album of all time. Invincible (2001) sold as much as Lady Gaga’s Monster… HIStory was genius!

You are right. Clearly the post should have stated “yes, many of these idiotic people actually exist”. Good catch, hj.
