Michael Jackson has canceled his comeback concert series opening show for July 8th in London, and moved it to the 13th. His other shows in July were moved all the way to March 2010??

And we have just one question…why is he pretending NOT to be ill? From what I have read, although not all totally confirmed, it looks like Jackson is experiencing some major health issues. I have heard lung problems, skin cancer, and a bevy of other ailments.

Hey Jacko, instead of trying to save face (yes, we said it) how about you just call the whole thing off. You can convalesce in the privacy of your own home and stop trying to make it seem like you are well enough to go on tour.

All I have to say about this (easily predicted) cancellation is: karma is a bitch.

Newsday reported from the Associated Press:

Michael Jackson’s representatives announced yesterday that the elusive King of Pop will postpone several of his London comeback shows scheduled for this summer.

The opening night at the 02 Arena had been set for July 8 but will be moved back to July 13, promoters said. In addition, shows scheduled for July 10, July 12 and July 14 will instead be held in March 2010, The Associated Press reports.

The delays are likely to fuel speculation that Jackson is suffering from health ailments that may curtail his comeback bid.

Recent reports in the British press said the 50-year-old singer was diagnosed with skin cancer last month. Doctors reportedly noticed spots on his neck and precancerous cells on his face. A spokesman has denied the rumors, insisting the star is in “perfect health.”

Kenny Ortega, Jackson’s collaborator, said the change is needed to deliver a flawless production.

“We apologize to all disappointed Michael Jackson fans and remain extremely dedicated and focused on creating an exceptional live music experience,” he said. Promoters said anyone who chooses not to attend the rescheduled shows will be entitled to a full refund.

Jackson’s 50 shows are scheduled to kick off in July and stretch into March.

The troubled pop singer has said the series, “This is It,” will be his last in the British capital.

Promoters said the tickets sold out within hours of becoming available.

Now I’m sorry, while there are clearly thousands of fans who are willing to overlook the well-documented molestation cases brought against Jackson for molesting boys, including the expensive payoffs to their parents, but I am not willing to forget that he is a blatant, creepy, unrepentant, PEDOPHILE. 

When he wrote the song BAD, I guess we all should have been paying closer attention.

He was charged with 10 counts back in 2003, which were four counts of committing lewd acts on a child, one count of an attempted lewd act, and four counts of administering an intoxicating agent. Also conspiring to commit child abduction, extortion and false imprisonment and two special allegations.

This case was on the heels of Jackson admitting on national TV that there is nothing more beautiful then having someone sleep in your bed (he was of course referring to his young boy house guests) when he was interviewed by Martin Basheer back in 2003.

I think I heard the gasps of millions of people world wide that night.
Seems to me, he should have left that little gem out, but I am glad he didn’t, as it showed just how delusional, sick and twisted he truly is, and in turn, prompted abused victims to come forward.

BUT! To my utter disgust Jackson was found not guilty. The day Jackson was found not guilty of all 10 counts was the day (besides the OJ case) I gave up hope for the justice system actually being a justice system at all. It’s also proof positive that people are unwilling to apply the same laws and punishment to the rich and famous, regardless of the heinousness of their crimes.

Between the circus-like court case hearings of him showing up in his PJ’s, jumping on top of cars and waving, to his bizarre sightings on impromptu shopping sprees, he has not really done anything to change a lot of people’s minds about just how strange and troubled he is.

Perhaps someone can explain to me why he went into a BOOK STORE in Santa Monica, dressed like an undertaker with a mask and had someone following him around with a black umbrella on the INSIDE of the store? Was he trying NOT to attract attention?  Makes you wonder if that was his true intention. After all, if he just dressed normal and put a hat on, who would recognize him? Or how about going out for a little stroll? Why wear your PJs and a mask? I guess with today’s idiotic “swine flu” pandemic he could actually slip in and out of places totally undetected.

And please, don’t get me started on his poor kids.

All parents are guilty of doing something to embarrass their kids from time to time, including my own dad. We would duck down in the back seat and cringe while my father was blowing kisses to any guy with shoulder length hair back in the 70’s. Thank God he has mellowed, and is more PC now. But can you imagine growing up with Jackson as your Dad? Egad! No wonder they wear masks, who can blame them!

Now I am certainly not going to deny that the man was a great talent. EMPHASIS ON THE WORD WAS. He was responsible for some incredible music and was a phenomenal dancer…WAS.

Sadly, that all changed for me when he started to act out his FREAKY desires, instead of getting some help. Now I know Michael had a hellacious childhood and I believe he is a victim himself, but once someone knows they have a problem then it’s their responsibility to get the help them need. Instead, Michael continued to surround himself with temptation and enablers who looked the other way while he acted out on his sickness, hurting innocent children in the process.

He has been in court enough times to know right from wrong, but Jackson chooses to do whatever Jackson wants to do. I would imagine, he is not accustomed to hearing the word no either. Unfortunately in this world, there are many celebrity “enablers” and they will do anything for a buck, including turning a blind eye to criminal behavior.

While many of Michael’s rabid fans may have been thrilled about the comeback tour, I was not one of them. I don’t care that he is a supposedly $300 million in debt, I mean talk about poor money management. Although, I do feel bad for his kids, for many, many, MANY reasons. Number one being THEY AREN’T HIS KIDS. At least not biologically. Just because you can buy children, doesn’t make you a good parent.

So to you Michael… just STOP. Stop trying to be the almighty Michael Jackson. Your moon walking and your sparkly glove days are over. Get the therapy and mental health care you need and try to let your kids have a normal life, while they are still young.

Hey Peter Pan…… it’s time to go back to Never Never Land.
Oh wait…that belongs to the Sycamore Valley Ranch Company now.

KARMA BABY!

Just Plain Frightening
