Barbara Walter is fake. In 1997,when she interviewed Michael Jackson,she asked him something about why he wore funny clothes. It was like she was making fun of MJ. Now,after he's gone,she wants to pretend that she liked Michael when she don't. The memorial made me cry,because Michael Jackson was the most loving man and father a person could ask for. And now that he's gone,I feel like people took advantage of his kindness so much that he broke down. It's not okay, especially when a person like MJ was so kind,smart,genuine,caring,and loving. I hope karma deal with those people. Rest in paradise MJ. August 29,1958-June 25,2009. Gone but never forgotten. ❤️✝
Barbra was friends with everyone back then, and she totally always asked the tough questions, I think at the time people really didn’t understand his fashion.
I’m find people like you a bit ridiculous. She’s a journalists. There were much TOUGHER questions she could asked him than why choose to dress a certain. That was too much for you?
Barbara Walters is really something ..When she interviewed MJ she spoke to him , being sure to give her audience the impression, he was a freak, looking at him with disapproval , criticizing everything about him. She even had the same attitude , when she interviewed MJ atty , Tom Mesereau...a brilliant and respected man . Seems anyone or thing remotely connected to Jackson , was fodder for this woman. His children are not even an exception, as she critiques , their grieving process on this cr@ppy show. She was also the one that introduced the Bashir documentary essentially endorsing the tabloid piece and vouching for Bashir, who had been a tabloid hack in England .. I would say , most know , that was a slanted hit piece , that ended up destroying, Michaels life, essentially setting the stage for false accusations and a big show trial., He was found completely innocent , yet he and his children lives were changed forever . Here she is pretending to care about this mans children. She is nothing more than a tabloid hack herself , masquerading as a serious journalist .What a load of baloney
my mother told me something n it was really deep n true, she said sometimes God can take away the gift he gave to u when he see how the way u treat it so badly n dat wat God did, he took MJ cuz he saw how the way people were treating him n im not saying im happy MJ gone but im happy he doesnt have to deal with anymore pain n those people wil receive judgement...RIP MJ *Long Live The King*
I cry whenever I watch Ushers performance. Tears just naturally flow down my face within seconds of hearing people talk about Michaels death. I am one of his biggest fans. I love him so much. He is my inspiration. It breaks my heart to know I'll never get the chance to meet him, and tell him myself how much I love him. But hopefully he'll be looking down on me and all other people who loved him with a smile :) I am so proud of him and every important moment of the rest of my life I will look up at the sky and think of him, and thank him for gracing the world with his presence. I love you Mike. Xxx
It breaks my heart that I will never get the chance to meet him, there is not a single artist alive today that I care about meeting, ever since I was a kid I looked forward to one day seeing him in concert or something
Why was that bitch invited to the funeral!?! Like everyone else, as soon as he passed everyone became his "best friend" all sweet and happy, but when he was alive and during the trials NO ONE stood by his side, NO ONE helped him, NO ONE wanted to be seen with him, every one said he was guilty to get money.. Liz was just about the only one who supported him during that rough period, and she was also his best friend, one of the few people who knew who the TRUE Michael Jackson was. Barbara Walters was constantly slandering on Michael, saying he looked weird, guilty and super rude to him in her interview with him! Leave Michael alone! He was and will ALWAYS be innocent! I love you Michael, I´ll never let you part, for you´re always, and forever in my heart
How can Barbara not think Michael's children didn't know what was going on? HELLO? Their Father just passed away! His casket was right in front of them! People who loved, respected and adored Michael sang to him, in his honor! And Barbara has the nerve to say the children didn't know what was going on because the two boys were chewing gum? They're children! Maybe it helped them cope or keep from crying! Watching this clip made me lose a lot of respect for Barbara! What an asinine thing to say!
Joy's rude and shes shut her down a few times saying all he ever did was perform since he was at knee high age no childhood no nothing it screwed him up wound up with Peter pan syndrome a man whose still trapped in child's mind who doesn't want to grow up is a real syndrome when discussing allegations she said hed never ever hurt a child adult MJ maybe but never a childI left and trusted my child with him thats how she sidestepped Joy's bad attitude an rude comments about needing a nanny cam at his house. She makes my blood boil want to stuff a sock I her and Barbra mouth and Oprahs and diane Sawyer and Nancy Grace to.😡
Fadumo Farah that ain't no poor baby... she changed her name to FRANKIE and she embraced her mother who practically sold her to Michael JACKSON for 4 million dollars... each child... and supposedly she spent xmas with her real daddy. How soon do they forget... at least Prince and Blanket didn't cry fake tears at the memorial service. You could tell she wasn't for REAL. Poor baby my ass... If that was the only daddy they knew and only family why would she go be with Debbie Rowe and her real dad...
Barbara is wrong because prince , paris and blanket , they were understanding thier fathers death and all of them were very sad . And 7 years old blanket was very sad and he didn't stop crying. And Barbara mustn't say that just paris was understanding her father's death...
how is it that when she calls somebody else’s kids “good looking children”, nobody bats an eye, but when michael was saying he loved children he was called a freak and pedophile ? 🤨
The boys were in shock. Prince was called into the room and saw his father dying. Blanket at 6 is very young and shy. What a person shows on the outside DOES NOT REFLECT what is going on inside them. They were stuffing their feelings. For a person that has interviewed so many human beings, Barbara sure doesn't know a whole lot about them.
MICHAEL JACKSON was the best human who ever lived,he gived all his life to children and to all the people,he loved everybody womans,mans,childrens,animals,trees,he loved everybody and everything who God create!how can some people say that was a pedofile?how?it's something wrong to love children?i don't think so,everybody must love children,he dedicate all his life to them...i'm soo sad...when they will see that Michael was unique?was a gift from God?when? I LOVE YOU MORE MICHAEL!! I LOVE YOU!!
I think blanket took it the worst. Paris showed the most emotion because she is a girl...and Prince being the oldest took the best. But poor Blanket...he felt out of place with out his dad. If anything he was trying not to think of what was going on.
Saying Paris was being emotional because she's a girl doesn't make perfect sense. MJ had died when I was 6 and a half years old and I never showed any emotion about him and I never even cared about his death. Now, that I'm 16 years old, I understood about his death and how sad it was.
***** I am soooo glad someone else agrees with me!!! People act like we are just "crazy conspiracy theorist". That is NOT the case, there is ample evidence. I am angry that he reached out to several people and NO ONE tried to help him. Love you MJ, miss you.xoxo
wwedxecw Sony and AEG did. They wanted the Catalog he owned back and all his Music and image that they could milk for years. Never buy another MJ album again. They don't deserve to make money off him when in his final years he tried to distance himself from them.
Hugh Egg Sony does not "own" controlling shares in MJ's music. He bought up alot in his final years... So Sony only gets a percentage... The rest to MJ's Estate.
Crystal Albrook "Michael" and "Xscape" were released under Sony. The estate works with Sony regarding all things MJ and they have been making a mockery of his legacy. An Album with songs that arent even him, to remixes that completely butcher the music he was working on and a fake hologram with a fucking impersonator with a CGI face.
+Linell Carr no in the interview Michael did with her back in 1997 they talked about Diana's passing and how Michael performed that song at the concert after her death and dedicated it to Diana
"Gone too soon" was writing for Ryan White for the Aids help. not for Princess Diana. If you look up Ryan White on RUclips.Theres a movie about him called The Ryan White Story its about :1988 TV movie based on the true story of Ryan White, an Indiana teenager with AIDS who fought for the right to attend school. Now for the song "Dirty Diana" I think was writing about Princess Diana.
You're so wrong. Dirty Diana wasn't written for Lady Diana. Dirty Diana is a creative term for a woman who is promiscuous and have groupies and stuff like that. Just like the related word, Debbie downer. If he wrote a song called Debbie downer, it wouldn't be written for his former ex wife, Debbie lol.
How does she know what they were thinking? And I'm pretty sure, at least, Prince knew why he was there and what was going on. I mean really? He's 12. He should know. Blanket looked a bit overwhelmed and confused and his siblings explained to him. And Paris was VERY moved and very emotional. They're all such good kids.
@lighteyes214 -My friend and I was saying the same thing about how everyone seems to love him now that he is dead. Just wanted to let u know that my best friend and I have been big MJ fans since we were 11 or 12 and we went to his Bad concert here in Dallas back in 1988 and it was phenomenal. We loved and supported Mike during the good and bad and we have always known he was innocent. He was too good of a man to have been dumped on like he was.
That was the worst day in music history because music died that day. It was the end of huge albums, sensational music videos and incredible performances.
To everyone that's saying that Barbara is being nice to him NOW as opposed to when he was alive, watch this video again. She says NOTHING good about Michael himself. Even at the end she couldn't complete her sentence and say "and now Usher is singing the song for Michael". Instead she just said, "and now Usher is singing the song". She's consistent about her evil, I'll give her that.
@chadpopstar -You are right it is about Ryan White. Back in the 80's folks with AIDS were shunned and Ryan was ran out of schools so Michael befriended him. That's the kind of man Michael was.
@fizzwify -Your mom is a wise woman. I totally agree with what she told you. Some times when we don't appreciate the gift God will take it away. I believe Michael was a gift to the world to bring people together through his music. Some people in the world didn't value that and wanted to falsely accuse him and beat him down so God removed his child from this vicious world. May Michael rest in peace.
@SuniDays87 It was on a music video show he was hosting, when he was talking about how "Yeah" was somewhat paying homage to "Rock With You" win regards to the colored lasers in the background of the video. Usher's biggest influence was Michael Jackson, and he took it pretty hard when he passed. Alot of people didn't care about what the media did to him. It was the music, and all the good he did for humanity that matters, as well as the influence he's had on the young entertainers.
Who you kidding barbara, you weren't exactly kind to michael in the past when you were interviewing him. Now because he has passed you have a more humanitarian approach. Perhaps you should remember that next time you interview someone. Michael had feelings but the media did not treat him with respect. Do unto others as you would have done unto yourself!
All the kids were moved, Barbie. Each kid showed their emotion differently. But they were all sad and distraught. Didn't you see the tears in their eyes?
Yes it is an interesting thing with journalists, they are not true to who or what they report. There were only a select few who treated Michael with respect. Giraldo is one of them and an interviewer on MTV. Except for these two I cannot see any real great interviewing. It makes me sick watching you now trying to show that you care. Did the children get to you, you can see how well looked after they were. They were Michael's greatest achievement. He was an incredible father, and a music genius.
@Molignon and deestar54: She didn't say he WROTE it for Princess Diana. She said he said it to her about Princess Diana. Please pay attention before you comment.
@Reefah Sorry to bust your bubble, but that wasn't acting. Anyone who is a fan of Usher's knows that all his life, he idolized Michael Jackson. He said many many times when Michael was still alive that he would "live and die for that man." I knew when I found out that Michael died that Usher would be one of the first celebrities to take it kinda hard. James Brown, Usher, Michael Jackson...all those names have something in common. All amazing performers in their own right and time.
@SuniDays87 -Thanks for passing that along to me and I will check this video out tomorrow. I will also pass it along to a good friend of mine because she and bonded and became best friends over 26 years ago and it was being fans of Michael that brought us together. I don't know why I continue to be amazed at the hatred some people have towards others. But then again I recall my mom telling me as a child that if they didn't like Jesus then don't be shocked if people won't like you.
Don't understand all the hate being thrown out here for Barbara Walters. She's being respectful & not saying anything offensive, & I thought she was quite fair to MJ when she interviewed him. Reporters have to ask the tough questions, they can't ask all softball questions because that's not journalism, that's PR. She's not his PR tool. She gave him a platform to express his side of things, what's wrong with that. People need to chill & stop being so psycho when it comes to anything to do w/ MJ.
Barbara slandered Michael's name and legacy for years even when she was not interviewing him. People have the right to be upset with her. She is a a backstabbing bitch who did not deserve to go to his funeral. She made him out to look like a fool, and then when he passes away you want to call yourself friend. I'm sorry that's fake as hell
@lighteyes214 -I also believe without a shadow of a doubt that if it had not been for the false allegations against him and the media's public lynching of him and for that jerk Martin Bashir that Michael would still be alive. All of those things broke his spirit. If it had not been for his family, a few loyal friends like Liz Taylor, Stevie Wonder and his loyal fans and his kids that Michael would have given up a long time ago. I also believe his faith in God helped him too.
i agree, i can't stand her, how can she be so rude to him in her interviews and be 2-faced and kiss his ass now. i hate people like that. R.I.P Michael you will never be forgotten
Speaking nicely after his death and being so impolite (didn't want to use a harder word) while he was alive and interviewing him). Yeah, nothing different than i expected.
@SuniDays87 -I am going to watch that one. It seems like I recall something about it but must have forgotten. People like Diane Sawyer, Nancy Grance and all the other ones that took cheap potshots at him are a disgrace to the media.
Geraldo Rivera said it best. All these people who crying now that MJ gone did not stand with him during or after his trial in 2005. Whoopi has always maintained her relationship with him as for the rest comong out of the woodwork with crocodile tears, they need to STOP
Thank you. I agree Those kids knew why they were there. She tried to make it seem as if they didnt know what was going on. Bobwa Wawa kills me with that. She talks to the audience and viewers as if there idiots.
They shunned Michael because it was bad PR to be seen working with him. Like whenJustin Timberlake freaked out at Janets wardrobe malfunction at the superbowl. PR/MEDIA rules their image.
“Michaels behavior with kids was odd” “ what kind of man invites children to his bed?” “He wasn’t normal around children” “Very good looking children” 😒
Funny how she didn't say anything about how she snuck a camera in there. So disrespectful. Not to mention how she talks about watching them like she's at the zoo. They knew where they were, and why they were there Bobwa. UGH.
did barbara really think prince & blanket didnt understand what was happening? how do you not understand a death of a parent? If Paris knew what was happening don't you think Prince would know? I mean he is a year older! I can understand if Blanket was a little unsure because he was just 7 at the time
@msladyj38 thank u very much, ii remember ii would cry n cry, I couldn't stand the media, news people on t.v n even talk show like the view treat him so bad n turn againist him, he was such a beautiful angel, they wanted to make a angel look like a devil...but mah mom said but look @ how the way they treated "Jesus" "no matter how they treated him, he still love them n forgave them n dat goes the same for MJ"...im just happii dat he is @ peace:) cuz it was hell for him on earth!
Barbara Walters was probably the most professional reporter mj ever encountered. Let's be honest, that isn't saying much but she didn't bring up the worst alleged things about him.
She didn't interview him for 3 months on that documentary though. Bashir is the one who stood right in front of his and his children's face and complimented him and went and backstabbed him in front of the world. They are both wrong for it but I find Bashir to be more disgusting than Barbara. Its sad, but pretty much every reported jumped on the "wacko jacko" bandwagon for ratings back then. And when somone dies, they realize how unfair they were too them. Too little too late
Michael would have not approved them being included in this stupid list, and neither their appearance in the Grammy's ceremony. They are just kids, for God's sake. They are not even performers. If some 1 doesn't do something to stop this crazyness, those poor children will be fed to the wolves (the media and papparazi). Does anybody know how 2 get in touch w/Janet? I'm sure she & Katherine would do something 2 stop that harmful exposure of the children.
but u all slag Madonna when your show dissed him non stop...madonna is right, we, u for your show and others let him go, do not be hypocrites ok..be women and be honest...Whoopi so annoyed with you
@ukpkmkk That's Joy, but she doesn't deserve to be mentioned by her name. In other words, her name is insignificant next to others just like her who bad-mouth so many people. Thank God that Michael Jackson was never interviewed by her.

The whole m was sad but when Michael's big brother Marlon & Paris speech tore me up 😥

And why Bashir apologize to Michael Jackson after his death?

What the hell was Barbara Walters doing at the funeral? She wasn't his friend!
maybe she was there as a reporter... I'm guessing...
Kat she was a friend
Kat she interviewed him and was kissing Micheal ass now talking shit about him when he died fucking old bitch
Kat she is talking about memorial, it was public. Even you could attend I guess
Kat if I was Paris and I saw her I would be like BARBARA GET YOUR OLD AS OUTTA HERE AND AWAY FROM MY DAD.

No thanks
I think blanket took it the worst. Paris showed the most emotion because she is a girl...and Prince being the oldest took the best. But poor Blanket...he felt out of place with out his dad. If anything he was trying not to think of what was going on.

Lol Whoopi's reaction @1:28 to Barbara stammering all over words to try and make her story heart wrenching
People are just really ignorant and judgmental. People seem to lack common sense nowadays. It's sad and scary at the same time.
They lack sense of morality
Rebbie is not a non performing sister. Many people don't know, but she's put out several albums and had a top 40 hit with Centipede.
Yeah, back in the 80's. She was heavily underrated also. Her song/music video centipede was a masterpiece ❤
I miss MJ.

To everyone that's saying that Barbara is being nice to him NOW as opposed to when he was alive, watch this video again. She says NOTHING good about Michael himself. Even at the end she couldn't complete her sentence and say "and now Usher is singing the song for Michael". Instead she just said, "and now Usher is singing the song". She's consistent about her evil, I'll give her that.
@chadpopstar -You are right it is about Ryan White. Back in the 80's folks with AIDS
were shunned and Ryan was ran out of schools so Michael befriended him. That's the kind of man Michael was.
Funerals on TV? This is entertainment?
@fizzwify -Your mom is a wise woman. I totally agree with what she told you. Some times when we don't appreciate the gift God will take it away. I believe Michael was a gift to the world to bring people together through his music. Some people in the world didn't value that and wanted to falsely accuse him and beat him down so God removed his child from this vicious world. May Michael rest in peace.
@SuniDays87
It was on a music video show he was hosting, when he was talking about how "Yeah" was somewhat paying homage to "Rock With You" win regards to the colored lasers in the background of the video.
Usher's biggest influence was Michael Jackson, and he took it pretty hard when he passed.
Alot of people didn't care about what the media did to him. It was the music, and all the good he did for humanity that matters, as well as the influence he's had on the young entertainers.
So where was Usher when Michael was being attacked and wrongly accused?
There's a difference between a close friend and someone who's a fan of him.
Who you kidding barbara, you weren't exactly kind to michael in the past when you were interviewing him. Now because he has passed you have a more humanitarian approach. Perhaps you should remember that next time you interview someone. Michael had feelings but the media did not treat him with respect. Do unto others as you would have done unto yourself!
All the kids were moved, Barbie. Each kid showed their emotion differently. But they were all sad and distraught. Didn't you see the tears in their eyes?
why you always lying -.-
The world lost a musical genius and a wonderful person.
GOOD PEOPEL GO AWAY SOON.
freeze this at 0:16 and see Barbara's funny expression
aww Ms. Walters u r so sweet.
First time Janet turned me off. Her saying speak up sweatheart like she was telling her it was showtime, time to perform
Yes it is an interesting thing with journalists, they are not true to who or what they report. There were only a select few who treated Michael with respect. Giraldo is one of them and an interviewer on MTV. Except for these two I cannot see any real great interviewing. It makes me sick watching you now trying to show that you care. Did the children get to you, you can see how well looked after they were. They were Michael's greatest achievement. He was an incredible father, and a music genius.
@Molignon and deestar54: She didn't say he WROTE it for Princess Diana. She said he said it to her about Princess Diana. Please pay attention before you comment.
gone waaayyy too soon! both him and Diana! :(
@Reefah
Sorry to bust your bubble, but that wasn't acting.
Anyone who is a fan of Usher's knows that all his life, he idolized Michael Jackson. He said many many times when Michael was still alive that he would "live and die for that man." I knew when I found out that Michael died that Usher would be one of the first celebrities to take it kinda hard.
James Brown, Usher, Michael Jackson...all those names have something in common. All amazing performers in their own right and time.
@SuniDays87 -Thanks for passing that along to me and I will check this video out tomorrow. I will also pass it along to a good friend of mine because she and bonded and became best friends over 26 years ago and it was being fans of Michael that brought us together. I don't know why I continue to be amazed at the hatred some people have towards others. But then again I recall my mom telling me as a child that if they didn't like Jesus then don't be shocked if people won't like you.
when did al sharpton say that? wow. thx for the information!
i so agree with you
in the meantime we let the Osmonds live a peaceful life , marring eachother first cousins and all
bibimontajou-
if you're gonna hate someone, hate the right person. she didn't host that documentary. look it up again.
Don't understand all the hate being thrown out here for Barbara Walters. She's being respectful & not saying anything offensive, & I thought she was quite fair to MJ when she interviewed him. Reporters have to ask the tough questions, they can't ask all softball questions because that's not journalism, that's PR. She's not his PR tool. She gave him a platform to express his side of things, what's wrong with that. People need to chill & stop being so psycho when it comes to anything to do w/ MJ.
Barbara slandered Michael's name and legacy for years even when she was not interviewing him. People have the right to be upset with her. She is a a backstabbing bitch who did not deserve to go to his funeral. She made him out to look like a fool, and then when he passes away you want to call yourself friend. I'm sorry that's fake as hell
The View (Michael Jackson Memorial)
With Whoopi Goldberg, Barbara Walters, Elizabeth Hassleback, Sherri Shepherd & Elizabeth Hassleback
I though Gone Too Soon is written for Ryan White...?
@lighteyes214 -I also believe without a shadow of a doubt that if it had not been for the false allegations against him and the media's public lynching of him and for that jerk Martin Bashir that Michael would still be alive. All of those things broke his spirit. If it had not been for his family, a few loyal friends like Liz Taylor, Stevie Wonder and his loyal fans and his kids that Michael would have given up a long time ago. I also believe his faith in God helped him too.
i agree, i can't stand her, how can she be so rude to him in her interviews and be 2-faced and kiss his ass now. i hate people like that. R.I.P Michael you will never be forgotten
Speaking nicely after his death and being so impolite (didn't want to use a harder word) while he was alive and interviewing him).
Yeah, nothing different than i expected.
@SuniDays87 -I am going to watch that one. It seems like I recall something about it but must have forgotten. People like Diane Sawyer, Nancy Grance and all the other ones that took cheap potshots at him are a disgrace to the media.
Geraldo Rivera said it best. All these people who crying now that MJ gone did not stand with him during or after his trial in 2005. Whoopi has always maintained her relationship with him as for the rest comong out of the woodwork with crocodile tears, they need to STOP
What's the point of this segment? Why is she narrarating his funeral/memorial? isn't the video public?
@lubnabadi yes,it was written for Ryan white.
@SuniDays87 -Was this Diane Sawyer or Barbara Walters?
I agree with you 100% av427!
i loved centipede!!
Thank you. I agree Those kids knew why they were there. She tried to make it seem as if they didnt know what was going on. Bobwa Wawa kills me with that. She talks to the audience and viewers as if there idiots.
They shunned Michael because it was bad PR to be seen working with him. Like whenJustin Timberlake freaked out at Janets wardrobe malfunction at the superbowl. PR/MEDIA rules their image.
“Michaels behavior with kids was odd” “ what kind of man invites children to his bed?” “He wasn’t normal around children”
“Very good looking children” 😒
“The kids are good looking” “only one moved was Paris” they lost their father.....
Some friend Uri was then? Michael was used and abused. Barbara just go away, can't stand two faced people.
Funny how she didn't say anything about how she snuck a camera in there. So disrespectful. Not to mention how she talks about watching them like she's at the zoo. They knew where they were, and why they were there Bobwa. UGH.
did barbara really think prince & blanket didnt understand what was happening? how do you not understand a death of a parent? If Paris knew what was happening don't you think Prince would know? I mean he is a year older! I can understand if Blanket was a little unsure because he was just 7 at the time
the whole entire Jackson family was a good family why we distroyed the whole family is a shamed
true that!
@msladyj38 thank u very much, ii remember ii would cry n cry, I couldn't stand the media, news people on t.v n even talk show like the view treat him so bad n turn againist him, he was such a beautiful angel, they wanted to make a angel look like a devil...but mah mom said but look @ how the way they treated "Jesus" "no matter how they treated him, he still love them n forgave them n dat goes the same for MJ"...im just happii dat he is @ peace:) cuz it was hell for him on earth!
Whoopi looking at Walters like 🙄
Walters wasn't rude but she wasn't objective towards him either. Oprah was the most empathic interviewer to him.
Barbara Walters was probably the most professional reporter mj ever encountered. Let's be honest, that isn't saying much but she didn't bring up the worst alleged things about him.
No, Geraldo is more professional than her. She is a defender of pedophiles.
you now, i kind of agree with you, but I think his tears came from the haerth.
no, that was Diane Sawyer, but who cares? they're two of a kind!
She didn't interview him for 3 months on that documentary though. Bashir is the one who stood right in front of his and his children's face and complimented him and went and backstabbed him in front of the world. They are both wrong for it but I find Bashir to be more disgusting than Barbara. Its sad, but pretty much every reported jumped on the "wacko jacko" bandwagon for ratings back then. And when somone dies, they realize how unfair they were too them. Too little too late
4 albums
ughh! i know.
@SuniDays87 -Diane Dimond will have to answer for her malice and hatred. Noone gets away with wrong doing. I know that sounds cliche but it is truth.
Michael would have not approved them being included in this stupid list, and neither their appearance in the Grammy's ceremony. They are just kids, for God's sake. They are not even performers. If some 1 doesn't do something to stop this crazyness, those poor children will be fed to the wolves (the media and papparazi). Does anybody know how 2 get in touch w/Janet? I'm sure she & Katherine would do something 2 stop that harmful exposure of the children.
but u all slag Madonna when your show dissed him non stop...madonna is right, we, u for your show and others let him go, do not be hypocrites ok..be women and be honest...Whoopi so annoyed with you
@ukpkmkk
That's Joy, but she doesn't deserve to be mentioned by her name. In other words, her name is insignificant next to others just like her who bad-mouth so many people. Thank God that Michael Jackson was never interviewed by her.
Yeah! but she was no different from Bashir, when she mad condencending comments over the years.
wut did barbara do ? thats so bad?
I don't like her.
weeeelllll, u gotta point
Usher should be sued for bad acting...
