Oh, so two of the jurors think Michael was guilty. Well, y'know, a lot of people did. Too bad they weren't in a position to actually act on that impression -- oh, wait!!

Lame. Whether you agreed with the verdict or not, or think Michael was guilty of abusing children or not, or think Michael was guilty of abusing that specific child or not, you have to agree that switching up now that you have a book coming out is completely despicable.

Meanwhile, check out Maureen Orth's latest two articles for Vanity Fair about the case:

 Mr. Jackson, You're Free To Go.

 

 Meanwhile, I suppose it's just a matter of time until Michael's former employee, Bob Jones, gets his own "D.S."-like song--!

The Michael Jackson Trial: E! News Presentation


F. People

by Rand Bellavia and Adam English c2003 (BMI)

Performed by Ookla the Mok

Listen to the song!

Read the lyrics (of which there are some below)!

Show a little compassion for Michael Jackson
When he turns up on the evening news
Don’t judge that man or make fun of his tan
Until you’ve walked a mile backwards in his sequined shoes
And even if he is as bad as we might fear
We’re to blame, we gave him fame, and we can make him disappear

Famous people are weird
They can’t help it
It just goes along with being a star
We need our stars to act a little bizarre
If only to assure us how normal we are
When they’re smeared we’re all too eager to jeer
And when they’re cleared we’ll be first in line to cheer at the world premiere
Famous people are weird


Support the band!
