You lookin' at my pint?
"It's like when Kennedy was assassinated" said one New York fan on the BBC's website.
I wasn't born when Kennedy was shot but if its impact was, in any way, similar to the news that Michael Jackson had died then i am re-evaluating history as i type. In years to come are people going to sidle up to me in rough house boozers, give me a knowing nudge and ask "where were you when the King of Pop died then?" Well, i was in the living room having just watched BBC's Question Time from Newquay (a rather lacklustre episode of the political affairs series i thought). Naturally, after hearing that tragic news, the room quickly filled with tears and a hasty evacuation plan had to be implemented.
The tributes to Michael were led by, ageing pop princess, Madonna, who said - "My heart goes out to his three children and other members of his family. God bless." And anyone suggesting she was hovering, vulture-like, at the thought of another child collecting opportunity is just peddling scandalous gossip, you hear?
Canadian warbler, Celine Dions said - "I am shocked. I am overwhelmed by this tragedy. Michael Jackson has been an idol for me all my life." As if Michael didn't provide enough ammunition to his critics, what with the Jesus juice, the allegations, and the baby-dangling, it now turns out he may have inspired Celine Dions to sing. Just stick the knife in Celine, why don't you? Cold.
Perhaps he was, as many commentators say, a child trapped in the body of a fully-grown, surgically altered, hideous waxwork of horrors exhibit, but does that make him a bad person? No, of course not. Although some people may say touching children does. However, those people are simply small-minded haterz of the Jacksons genius. Who else could teach those zombies how to dance in double-quick time, eh? Certainly not the modern pop-stars of today, such as Ricky Martins or Elton Johns, too busy with their crude machismo and womanising ways.
Sadly, Michael Jackson's poor old heart - ironically, his last remaining original body part - could no longer take the strain and gave up the ghost last night.
