You could argue that many fans of Michael Jackson live in their own strange little world already, but soon, they’ll be able to completely detach themselves from normal people and stay at home, stinking of B.O. and going paler than Michael Jackson’s cock as they enter a virtual planet devoted to the late King of Pop… never to return.
That’s right, weirdos, California-based SEE Virtual Worlds announced that it had a deal with Jackson’s estate to make ‘Planet Michael’, which is an Internet world based on the artist’s music, life, and interests.
Interests, we can only assume, that will include rattling around a house filled with Jolly Green Giant figurines, monkeys and the sound of crying.
Jackson estate co-executor John McClain said in a release:
“Michael was always exploring creative new ways technology could enhance the experiences of his fans,”
“We are thrilled to be working with SEE Virtual Worlds to build a global interactive experience that befits an artist as innovative as Michael Jackson.”
Really? Jackson was always exploring new technology but never actually got ’round to utilising it, unless of course, you count that staggeringly awful video game he released based on the Moonwalker film which saw you kicking magic out of your foot and beating women up while children shouted “MICHAEL!” at you.
Anyway, this virtual planet to be finished by late next year will let people use animated characters to socialize, explore and play games in a world with continents devoted to themes from Jackson’s life. Just like Second Life, only filled with the most depressing music fans in history.
Estate co-executor John Branca:
“It is fitting that in Planet Michael his fans will be able to join together in such a unique way online to celebrate his music, his artistry and his devotion to helping those in need.”
Perhaps there’ll be a section when animated avatars can gather around court houses to hurl abuse at people from the medical profession between singing ‘Heal The World’ and dressing up as the badly animated rabbit from the Speed Demon video.
SEE launched a planetmichael.com website to provide information and updates about the project.
If living in Michael Jackson’s desperate world of loneliness doesn’t appeal, then maybe you’d rather dance around like him instead?
Next year could see the release of ‘Michael Jackson: The Experience’ which will teach players to master the King of Pop’s most famous dance moves.
Jackson was 50 years old when he died of weirdness on July 25, 2009.

Freedom of speech is a great concept but it is a shame that it allows trash like this to be written all over the internet.
When the world’s governments find a way to adequately segregate the internet communities, expert to find HecklerSpray under ‘surplus to requirements’…
Hammer says
Nah, I’ll pass on this one. I’d rather live in the weirder and more alluring world of deceitful and damaging journalism where I can go by the name of “Mof” (what kind of stupid name is that anyway? Did your mother not love you?) and hurl insults at others to make myself feel better about my own shortcomings. Now THAT would be a complete divorce from reality! Go get some help pal, you could use it. You really showed your ass on this one. And its butt ugly too!
speechless says
You could argue that many fans of Heckler Spray live in their own strange little world already. Why does the name Michael Jackson seem to signal to some people to regress into 13 yrs old and shoot cheap shots that once raised a laugh from their classmates. Why is it impossible to review a game whatever with the maturity of an adult? Gossip for Grown ups!!!!!

mof you’re an a**hole jerk! F***ng name!
stacy brookfield says
Who ever wrote this article is a) unprofessional sounding b) very opinionated (there’s life outside your own backyard) c) a hater d) needs a hug e) get over yourself
I’m not even a MJ fan but MJ was a great person and artist who influenced many lives on many levels.
moa says
heckler spray showing again how damn low their IQ. What should I say? Thank you for attack Mr. Jackson and his Fans again. Hope it would be your biggest happiness in your life and nothing more.
Destiny says
MJ fans: Don’t even comment on the article! Don’t give stupid, Mean, and heartless people..the time of day.
The author of this article will not even be remembered in 2 years!
Some people are just dumb meanies!
Barbara Straughn says
Well you haven’t disappointed me ……… once again you’ve raised your head from the gutter, or was it a rock you had crawled under? Perhaps you were resting with Bashir or Winfrey ……. bless. Your level of intelligence hasn’t improved I see, neither has your fanbase grown – unlike Michael’s!!!!
Have a good day
Marvin says
Its a shame poeple like Michael are gone but white trish like this is still alive. I really do question the lords decisions sometimes.
Kat says
Who is this ass? Do they really allow people(or whatever you are) to write nasty things like this? People like this need help. What’s your name? Mof? You’re sick Mof. Something’s wrong with your heart. I don’t think you have one. Better go get a check up.
MJFAN says
Whoever wrote this is a scam and looser. Drop dead and go to hell jackass with your mama!!!
MJFAN says
Mof you idiot,loser,scam! go to hell.

Cookie Monster says
Bravo, sir! To paraphrase another commentard; “Thank you for attack Mr. Jackson and his Fans again … it … be [my] biggest happiness in [my] life”. Classic sentiment, that is. It brings tears to my eyes.
Anna says
How is this different than fans of different video games who stay at home and do nothing else except playing those video games. It kind of seems like this article is just another way for an MJ hater to try and insult MJ fans. The obsession MJ haters have with MJ and MJ fans boggles my mind more than the obsession MJ fans have with MJ. Atleast with MJ fans their obsession is born out of love, admiration and respect, whilst MJ haters obession is born out of hate, dissapproval and disrespect.
bow1958 says
This is today’s journalism – just pure trash. It’s almost hard to comprehend this low level of intelligence or who could possibly be interested in sponsoring this website or advertising on it. Just absolute low-life – filth – scumbags….
Su237 says
More filthy tabloid junk!! I’m not shocked anymore, I past that stage. I’m just devastated and broken hearted, because we get to lose Michael Jackson, THE greatest entertainer of all time, a genius that was too good for this world, someone who gave us his all to make this world a happier place, something too good to be true because of trash like Mof Gimmer (what a stupid name btw) and then this trash comes out of his stinky garbage can and spreads his viruses all over the place and we have to live with it?! How on earth was he allowed to write such junk? How did this get approved? Does it get any lower than this? .. Garbage like MOF should only write about garbage like him. MOF idiot, I’d suggest you stay in your garbage can and write about people in your level like Tom Sneddeon, Uri Geller, Diane Dimond, Rabbi Shmuley, Martin Bashir, Oprah …etc that’s where you belong and thats where you will stay. I swear to God we will continue to trash you if you ever mention Mike in such a bad way again. I’d stay in that garbage can if I were you, its safer than coming out here and facing us, because we will give you hell on earth if you show more disrespect to Michael. Dont ever think for once second that we will not gladly jump to Mike’s defense. God bless Michael wherever he is, much love to him forever, and may God curse his enemies and expose them!
Marian says
Freedom of speech is disrespected. They would do this to Beethoven if he were here. These Michael Jackson fans are university educated, authors, writers, professors at honored institutions, The Moscow Symphony. Shame, shame, shame. An atrocity. Do your research, the man is clearly innocent, check out the FBI files, he’s clearly brilliant. I won’t argue these points, and you most likely will not care that the comments here reprimand your use of free speech, not to mention unsubstantiatable opinions. How can this be allowed?
Hillary says
“What one wishes is to be touched by truth and to be able to interpret that truth so that one may use what one is feeling and experiencing, be it despair or joy, in a way that will add meaning to one’s life and will hopefully touch others as well. This is art in its highest form. Those moments of enlightenment are what I continue to live for”
–Michael Jackson
In your column I see nothing that could give your life meaning. This is no where close to art, writing is a wonderful art…but this isn’t wonderful. It’s corrupt and twisted and very selfish. I see that something in your life has gone terribly wrong and you are lashing out on a good man to get a rise out of as many people as you can. You are striving for attention and the only way you can get it is by using your negative energy. I truely feel for you, I hope life will guide you to a better path in life. Reach out with love, don’t use your anger. This will only hurt you worse in the long run. Michael always said to do things and treat people with love L-O-V-E with the love. Give it a try, and read the book Moonwalk by Michael Jackson, maybe this will give you some clarity.
Steve Charnock says
I was quite intrigued by this, so I decided to look up this ‘Michael Jackson’ character. Apparently, he was a ‘pop’ singer with a high voice and a bit of a funny face. Delving deeper, it turns out (and I don’t want to upset his too many of his vulnerable fans here…) that he was a paedophile!
And a dancing paedophile at that – the worst kind of paedophile…
I’m sorry to break the news to you like this, fans. I know how you all feel – I was absolutely gutted when I found out some of the rotten things that my favourite underground Austrian artist of the early 20th century, Adolf Hitler got up to. Gutted.
Most says
Ayo, Steve! Turns out you were wrong. Do your research. Read the actual trial transcript, and you’ll see what REALLY happened…not what the media felt like making up. You should also read Aphrodite Jones’ book.
As for the “author” of this little ditty, “died from weirdness”? Obviously, you possess no depth, no compassion, and no insight into artistry or genius, and what a shame that is because you missed out on one of the greatest gifts God ever gave us. What did he really die from? People like you.
Michael Jackson's Ghost says
You’re IGNORANT!

IGNORANT!
mansi arora says
Dear Bobo i loved your Comment. I admire Michael Jackson for many reasons. 1. Hardworking: – spending thousands of hours in the studio rehearsing, practicing, and ensuring he hit every note. 2. Autodidactic: – He loved his work. He was a self learner. 3. Never give-up Attitude:- 4. Perseverance: – why he is successful. Larger than life because he was persistent. 5. Pure at heart: – he has a golden heart and a pure soul. 6.Humanitarian: – Great Humanitarian.
hugs to you. God bless you
Alice says
I’m with you..I would rather live in Planet Michael than the planet of rude ass people. This guy probably has family members he hates too and I’m sure that he was abused as kid. You can tell because he talks like one..you know the saying HURT PEOPLE, HURT PEOPLE….
MJJLVR! says
Why do some people say and do such hateful things?? Obviously this person who wrote this article has no sense of pride in her/himself. My question(s) to you is this:
1) Did you ever have the opportunity to meet Michael?
2) Did you ever go to any of his concerts?
3) Have you seriously taken a look at the woman/man in your mirror?
I you have said NO to any of these questions, then you have NO RIGHT to condone anything that Michael Jackson did, said or sang about.
YOU are a pathetic, selfish person who “thinks” they know Michael Jackson. YOU DON”T . I think your site here is an abomination of the freedom of speech.
God have mercy FOR your soul because I don’t think you have one!
susan says
It’s all for love haters. Love for MJ will never fade coz people like you make us realize even more what a great loss MJ was to this world. Haters need some hugs and TLC from PYT’s. MJ will live on in our hearts forever and there is nothing that you can do about it.
Cookie Monster says
I called the FBI and had them fax their files over to me. All we Mad Haters must stand corrected. Uncle Mike – as we called him at Never(tellanyoneourlittlesecrethavesomoewineandroofiesa321bcaboink)land – was entirely innocent of stuff and all whatever things with his deformed penis, while dancing. However, it seems that he was Osama Bin Laden. I researched it and everything, and it’s totally trueness.
Steve, Adolf neither touched young lads, nor was he known for dancing, just a disturbing Disney fetish and one nutedness.
Most, if there is a God, and a drug-addled, surgeory-scarred, paedophile lunatic who died an early death due to habitual and extreme drug use is the greatest gift that this God character gave us, then clearly God is a supreme comedian. He may rival Louis CK, Mel Gibson, or perhaps Gilbert Godfried. I can’t help but to wonder what his second-best gift was, or his worst. Please do let us all know; I’m ejaculating with curiosity.

Laurie says
wait a second, love. who is “white trish”? it sounds like it could be micheal jackson’s alter-ego, so surely you should get off her back and stop the hate…. then again, if it’s jacko’s alter ego, she can’t be still alive. because he’s dead. deader than the cold, blank eyes of someone immersed in “planet michael”.
Laurie says
you do realise that it’s not necessary to start a new line for each sentence, right? and “segregating” internet communities has been eestablished already, since websites are all seperate. are you talking about the recent threats of censorship? sweetheart, you need to sort out your world-view if you think governments are going to care weather or not someone mocks michael jackson.
Tami Iascone says
I love your comment, best comment on the page. I totally agree with you all the way
susan says
You are obviously haven’t touched by an angel (as in literally). What a pity!
The way you talk, it shows exactly what a low-life, narrow minded and misguided person you are. Go back to your hiding place cookie monster, your name suits you perfectly. Some monster you are indeed.
Cookie Monster says
I was once flashed in Manhatten, though I didn’t ask if he was an angel. Does that count? I should repent, Susan, shouldn’t I? Indeed, I shall. There, done! Now, with this Michael Jackson doll, show us where the angel touched you, and please tell us if it looked like a monied type of angel, and then we’ll decide if you can keep the doll.
There may be a lie in the above paragraph. That last sentence is likely a half-truth.
