Michael Jackson knew every song on Shaggy's Hot Shot album.

 The Jamaican-American rapper found worldwide fame in 2000 when he released It Wasn't Me, featuring Rikrok, from his multi-platinum selling fifth studio album.

 While the song topped the charts all over the world, Shaggy was surprised to learn late King of Pop Michael was also a huge fan of the track. In fact, the Billy Jean singer liked it so much he requested Shaggy play it live at his 2001 30th Anniversary concert in Madison Square Garden.

 "He told me that the story in the song sounded like something that would happen to him - so who knows, man? I just thought he was really clever and brilliant, and he knew every record on that album Hot Shot, which was very nice. And he just wanted to know everything about me," Shaggy smiled to British newspaper Metro.

 "We maintained a kind of friendship; he was just a person that reached out to me. He just loved what I did and we ended up singing together, we ended up celebrating together. These moments are pivotal moments in my career that are great memories."

Jet - 25 юли 1988

Backstage on the 'Bad' Tour ~ with Michael is actress/singer Lola Falana. Michael, a fan of Lola named his first llama after Lola Falana and in 1977 together, they presented an award to the group 'Chicago' at that year's AMA Award Show. Lola also performed at Sammy Davis's 60th Anniversary celebration where Michael also sang his tribute song 'You Were There'. Lola, discovered by Sammy Davis became the highest paid female performer in Las Vegas. However in 1987, Lola suffered a major setback, a relapse of multiple sclerosis. After her story appeared in Jet Magazine Lola was swamped with thousands of get well wishes and letters from the magazine’s readers. In her thank you post to the Jet readers Lola also thanked Michael’s fans who had supported her ~ “Michael Jackson was mentioned in a great deal in almost all of my mail. As I write this, he is in Germany. But you can bet that when he gets back to America, it will be my pleasure to show him how beautiful his fans are, and have been to me”.
In 1988 Michael offered Lola moral support and invited Lola to be his guest of honour during his Bad concerts in Rosemont Horizon, Chicago, while she continued her recovery.

Уфф, с тоя руски съм много зле. Не, че принципно имам време. Дано успея и аз да я прочета скоро  .
 Валя, снимката с Лола 

Много знаменитости имат съкровени спомени с нашия Крал, жалко, че техните фенове не могат да оценят нещата.
Между другото засякох една ужасна вихреща се война между фенове на Майк и фенове на Джъстин Бийбър. Наистина ужасно грозни постове, както и жестоки думи. Знам, че Майкъл не би одобрил това.

На списъка с поканените присъства Мадона? Противно на тезите, че той я е мразел.

Аз като попадна на подобни конфликти с фенове хич и не ги чета, още повече, че и езика ми е голяма бариера. Но жалко че се случват такива неща ....

Джо Джаксън за Майкъл: http://www.jwjackson.com/?p=1572 . Не си спомням да са  разказвани някъде тези случки.

същата снимка, но мноого голяма http://savepic.ru/5427024.htm

 

Новина, от която боли: Michael Jackson's Neverland Is About To Be Sold http://www.forbes.com/sites/zackomalleygreenburg/2014/07/31/mich … about-to-be-sold/ Иска ми се да не е вярно 

Brad Sundberg-"there is no Neverland, without Michael"

There really was no place on earth like Neverland, and it will never be the same because its creator is gone.

Може би наистина са правили опити да спасят Невърленд, явно са го предоставяли и организирали парти и др. събития според тези снимки , но явно не се е получило...

Част от статията Neverland is a Cultural Treasure на Барбара Кауфман:

The day will come when the whole truth of the Michael Jackson story will emerge. The world will finally know for certain about his life and the truth of what happened to him. As biographers examine him and those who actually knew him speak out, an entirely different story will emerge. The history will be chronicled and the truth set free.

Jackson is a cultural icon. He was a cultural treasure. Too many people saw the “pop star” and completely missed the “artist.” His soft voice, gentle demeanor and ethos took people by surprise. His ever-changing appearance became fodder for ridicule, his integrated masculinity and his race made him an easy and visible target, his fame made him a commodity and the human being got lost in the shuffle.

Civilization and evolution moves ever forward and new discoveries will be as radical as the ancients conceiving of an individual blueprint like DNA. The time will come when some science as yet unthinkable, will reveal other kinds of blueprints.

Michael Jackson will be one of those future discoveries. His life, work, ethic and ethos will be exposed for what is was. His Neverland Ranch was the physical manifestation of the “it takes a village” philosophy to grow a new kind of human being. It will then be recognized that his possessions, his clothing, his books, his gifts, his writings, his philanthropy and humanitarianism are part of the cultural treasure that he was.

Neverland is part of that cultural treasure. In the real estate business, empty land is not an asset. It makes no money. The ranch is not readily accessible and the locals do not want the area groomed for a deluge of tourists into their quiet and pristine neighborhood. No money can be made from Neverland. Because there is no ROI (return on investment) from this inaccessible part of the Jackson legacy, it will be auctioned off just as his other things have been, it’s value and cultural relevance unrecognized.

Until evolution catches up, the value of that loss will remain undiscovered until it’s too late and already gone. Just like the man himself. Another cultural treasure unappreciated and unrecognized in its own time will slip away because of a society that reveres money more than beauty; that does business devoid of responsibility to the future; exploits and trades resources without compassion or vision; that acts from a place of tightness, limitation and greed instead of freedom and abundance; that lacks the maturity to think beyond the here and now; that thinks it’s all for money instead of “it’s all for love.”

It’s another kind of murder altogether.

Хареса ми голяма част от горната статия. С това особено съм съгласна "Michael Jackson will be one of those future discoveries"
За Невърленд нямам еднозначно мнение. Разбира се че беше/е символ на нещо и би било добре в развитие да остане близо до това си първоначално значение. Времето ще покаже. Приемам че сега не може/ не е момента още да се третира като "cultural treasure", не са дорасли още там и сега за това.

Прекрасна статия   Най - после знам историята, свързана с тази снимка на Майкъл с  Кенджи Кога.
/началото е на 25 стр. на списанието/

Права си, Шошулчо, но се надявах да не се стига до продажба.  Невърленд без Майкъл не е Невърленд. Без Майкъл наистина няма същия смисъл.

Поне засега реакция на семейството - братя и сестри - не срещнах, освен тук http://www.gigwise.com/news/93122/michael-jacksons-neverland-ran … le-for-60-million, но ми е много някак си лежерно и постно като реакция...
