Michael Jackson Haters.. Hated'ers

I normally don't find people saying "I hate Michael Jackson". I do, have heard some of my friends say, "I don't know much about Michael Jackson, so I can't say anything, I've heard that he is a great singer, dancer.. Thats it." That is really really better than those who know nothing about Michael Jackson and say they hate him.. They say "Just look at him, he doesn't look like a male at all." and get me pissed off.. Just because he keeps his face clean shaved doesn't mean he isn't a guy at all. To me and the millions of Michael Jackson lovers in the world, Michael looks very much masculin.. When I say this, they say, "Naa.. He doesn't look that good." He looks awesome. You can't find a person who looks better than him on the stage for live performances or in music videos. He takes care of his appearances and does, always look good.. Well, take it that he doesn't look good(I'm not agreeing with it, MJ haters..), do you hate a person with his appearance? I'm challenging you to deny the fact that he is talented. He is the most talented, he looks really good.. I will never say he doesn't look good..

Michael Jackson haters just don't know anything about him. He has spent millions of money for charity and loves Mahatma Gandhi.. He loves peace and has started Heal The World foundation that helps many people.. Michael Jackson's father Joe Jackson said, "He wasn't ever really interested in money. I'd give him his share of the night's earnings and the next day he'd buy ice cream or candy for all the kids in the neighbourhood." Do you find people spending the money they have earnt for charity these days? Even you won't do it, MJ hater.. Michael Jackson said to the flood victims of Germany in 2002, "I am here in the spirit with you and you are in my prayers. Remember, God is with you, and have faith in the fact that this too shall pass." I've seen lotta MJ lovers.. They tend to be good, peace loving, helping, and loving others.. MJ haters, many of them aren't.. Well, MJ haters don't give any acceptable reason for their hating.. Really..


They say MJ is a child molester. If you believe that he is when the press said he is, why don't you believe he isn't, when the press says he has been found innocent?


They say Michael Jackson is gay. He married twice, and has children, morons!! Don't you give a thought about that? In 2002 Michael Jackson said, "Once I started breaking sales records, I broke Elvis Presley's record, I broke the Beatles' record - once I started doing that, overnight they called me a freak, a homosexual, a child molester... They said I bleached my skin. They did everything they could to turn the public against me. It's a conspiracy." only for you, MJ hater..


Michael Jackson loves his children.. You can't find many men these days who take care of their children by themselves these days. He is a father and a mother for his children. So that is really good, Michael Jackson is one among they few fathers who take care of their children themselves and not leave it to their wives..


Just because he is the greatest artist in the world, and your favorite artist is no match with him, you say all that you can, bad about MJ.. Just know that, MJ lovers do love other artists.. But they just don't deny that he is greater than all the other artists they love because they know it.. Like Michael Jackson said, "So you have to deal with this jealousy. They think they're hurting you. Nothing could hurt me. The bigger the star, the larger the target. At least they're talking. When they stop talking, you have to worry.", you're jealous of Michael Jackson man!!! You can't believe everything that is on the news you see or you read.. In Michael's words, "Not everythin that is printed is gospel!!!"


They say all his fans are freaks.. They don't know how to act.. I'll tell you what, there is no other artist in the history that had made more people faint and scream so much on his appearance.. He makes his fans too much of his fans.. They call him the "God" of music.. When they have him in a position that is this high, could it be without a reason? You know that he is great, you pretend that he isn't.. I am pretty sure that when you are alone, you're applauding his singing and dancing skills watching the video of "Smooth Criminal". Elizabeth Taylor said, "There is no one that can come near him, no one can dance like that, write the lyrics, or cause the kind of excitement that he does."



If you're on orkut, go to community search and type "I hate Michael Jackson", you'll find that you are one among the 5-10 people who hate Micheal Jackson.. Go and search for "Michael Jackson", you will find thousands of communities by Michael Jackson lovers created to express their love for him. I'm not typing all these because I hate to find Michael Jackson lovers, but I can prove what ever you say, wrong as the reason why you hate Michael Jackson.. If you believed whatever the press told about him and come and talk to me about what came on the television or on the newsrpaper, I just will say the MJ's words again, "Not everything that is printed is gospel!!!" He says not to believe you hear about him unless it is from his own mouth..

Well, so I'm not surrounded by many Michael Jackson haters, only some. So I was able to type only this much. After all, who can hate the King Of Pop? Please tell me something about Michael Jackson you hate.. I'll prove that the thing you say doesn't exist or you have to be a really rude human being who hates a person who loves other human beings.. Michael Jackson lovers, if you want me to disprove and add some things on this blog that people say as their reason why they hate Michael Jackson, please tell me.. I can disprove anything that can be said bad about Michael Jackson.. Michael Jackson haters too, please tell me if you got reasons more that you'd say if asked why you hate Michael Jackson, please tell me.. I want more things in this blog and I want to love Michael Jackson more than infinity.. Now I love him to infinity :)

"Don't forget to say things that can be added, MJ hater or MJ lover.. Whoever you are"
My request : Please don't say MJ sucks, he doesn't deserve it.. He is great
Thanks to DMJ(Dinesh) for the idea,



With love for you,
With love to infinity for Michael Jackson,
Mani..

The Great One - The King Of Pop

Not just one of the music artists, he is arguably the most famous. Michael Jackson, the king of pop. He started singing and dancing at the age of 5(doesn't this remind you of a tamil proverb?! lol). He is known for doing James Brown's moves at the age of 5. He started his career in music as eleven-year old frontman of the Jackson 5 which comprised of Michael and his four brothers - Jackie, Jermaine, Marlon and Tido, and produced the catchiest tunes of the Motown history. After a six year tenure, the Jackson 5 left the Motown and signed with Sony and changed the band name to the Jacksons as the name Jackson 5 was registered with Motown. Michael Jackson released his first solo album, 'Off The Wall' in 1979 when he was 21 years old. Off The Wall was a great debut. At the age of 25, in 1983, Michael released the album 'Thriller' which is the biggest success in the music business history with the hits 'Wanna Be Starting Something', 'Thriller', 'Beat It', 'Billie Jean', 'Human Nature', 'The Lady In My Life'.. Sold over 125 million albums, took a place in the Guinness Book Of World Records as the biggest selling album of all time. Making of Thriller is the best selling video ever. Mike impressed in his every video in that album with Thriller, Billie Jean(no one could have possibly not be wondering what he was doing after seeing the moonwalk in Billie Jean Motown 25 Performance)and Beat It. In the 1980's, Michael had the most #1's than any other artist. He also became the highest-paid commercial spokesperson as Pepsi paid $12 million for 4 commercials. In a live performance of the song he sung in the commercial was the beginning of all the change in his appearance, though he got his nose done a little in the album 'Thriller'. When Mike enters the stage, they arranged it like it'll blast fire behind Mike and then he'll enter. But due to technical failure, it put Mike's hair to fire. It needed many plastic surgeries to get his appearance back. Then the skin disease vitiligo turned him white. Mike was with his new appearance in his 1987 album 'Bad'. The appearance didn't matter. Mike still produced a lot of hits in that album including 'Bad', 'Smooth Criminal', 'The Way You Make Me feel', 'Liberian Girl', 'Man In The Mirror' and 'Dirty Diana'. It won him many grammys. And in Smooth Criminal music video, Michael performing had become legendary. In 1980, with his album Thriller at #1 and Bad at #2 of the year, Mike was awarded 'The Entertainer Of The Decade'. Bad tour got into the Guinness Book Of World Records with a gross revenue of over $124 million. He donated millions to charity. He released his 4th solo album, 'Dangerous' which increased the number of world records of Mike as the album entered at #1 directly! That is the first and only album to have debuted in the #1 position. In 1995 he released the album HIStory which contained all his previous hits and new tracks as a two disc album which made up 150 minutes of music! Next album was 'Blood On The Dance Floor' which released in 1997 which was equally successful. Then the case on Mike, child molestation. Spent a few years in jail, and proved himself innocent. Then came out of jail and made the album 'Invincible' which contained the song 'Invincible' which spoke to all those who sent him to jail. It didn't become a big hit as Sony wasn't interested in promoting 'Invincible' which was clearly seen after 'You Rock My World' single was released. Mike's next album was 'Thriller 25th Anniversary Edition' which was released in 2008. It contained the original songs in the thriller album and contained songs with the big names in the charts today, like Akon, Will.i.am, Fergie, Kanye West etc. and a previously unreleased track 'For All Time'. He is said to be doing an album with Will.i.am and Akon which will be released next year. Mike said in an interview that his best is yet to come!! In spite of being the most successful person in the music business. Well, all the best in what ever you do, Mike. We fans are always there for you.
