I had heard a lot about the documentary on MJ before I finally got a chance to see it on Star World.
I turned on my television to hear the show host screaming ..’’Coming up is: Living with
Michael Jackson, in which he finally admits to sleeping with children.
He finally cries out saying that his father abused him when he was
young’’. So like any other idiot box mucilage, I sat down and watched it
all. Watched Martin B trick and turn Michael’s words, corner him
into details that could very easily be juiced up. Saw one man destroy
another...once again!
The interview went on and I realised that MJ never said any of those
things. He said he tucks sick children into bed. His father said that
Michael is an ugly kid. Thats all! Why has the word tuck being spelled
out with an ’’f’’ suddenly? One is engulfed in emotional distress after
this. Left garbled, with hatred towards Martin B or rather the filthy media
he represents, I read how people in general are reacting to the views presented in the documentary.
I was deeply pained by what was being said about Michael. So I finally
decided to pen down my views.
’’At this point, I am worried about the children and disturbed
about MJ’’ says Martin B. Worried? He seemed glad! MJ and Martin B go to a
egyptian antics shop where MJ tells him that he has bought a golden
tomb. Poking fun at him, Martin B barbs ’’ Why? Do you want yourself to be
buried in it?’’ If such shafts of sarcasm were thrown at me, I would have
thought the interrogator to be pathetic. But not Michael. With his
innocence, he just plainly replies that he bought it cause he likes to
collect stuff and no he doesnt want to be buried in such a thing. I
feel this should have been titled ’’Living with Martin B’’ instead!!!
MJ seems to be going through a bad phase in his life right now. He
needs help. Michael is like the Rabies infected dog on the streets.
Instead of helping him, Martin B ties a fire cracker to his tail and
watches him painfully running in circles. Martin B with his scabrous act
even manages to gather a money throwing crowd around him!
MJ deserves more respect after what he has contributed to music and to
the world. What started out with a depressed, media torn MJ trying to
unnecessarily show the world that he is good, ended once again in
the ripping of another soul. It only shows that Martin B and
the avaricious media he represents will do anything for money. It echoes
what the world in general is coming to.
All-encompassing, what im trying to convey is that this documentary
has an underlying meaning. Our world needs love not hatred. This is what
MJ also keeps saying. We can learn from him instead of indulging in
trumpery. We must ’’ Heal the world and make it a better place to live
in’’.
