Death of Michael Jackson: Homicide or Fake?
As of right now, it's been seven weeks since the death of "The King of Pop" Michael Jackson died at age 50. He's been the focus of tremendous media attention, and received what was called "the biggest celebrity send-off of all time," watched by 1 billion people.
And yet the cause of death has still not been released. Was it an accidental overdose of a prescription medication, a lethal drug mix, a rare medical condition, or what?
In a case like this, the relatively young death of an American icon, the death report would usually come relatively quickly. Unless there's suspicion of foul play.
We suspect two things: first, like what happened with the other American music king Elvis Presley, somebody will claim to have seen Michael Jackson alive. Second, his death will be investigated as a homicide.

Comments
People and media focus much too much on one person. Without commenting on his personal life, Michael Jackson was just one man. He wasn't a god, he wasn't a king. If people would focus half as much on Jesus Christ and they do pop stars, this world could be as God intended.

I'm sorry but you have just a teeny weeny problem here. How can Michael Jackson both be seen alive and be reported murdered? Somebody needs to go back to school and take a logic class.

Logic has nothing to do with it. Elvis was confirmed dead and he can still be seen shopping for shoes and sunglasses at your local mall.

Sometimes I go outside and night and look up at the moon. I imagine I see Michael Jackson up there moon walking and smiling on us all. His death is an American tragedy.

I love Michael and his toys,
He's the friend of little boys.

Elvis is different from Michael. Elvis wasn't a pop singer who gyrated on stage in front of young children, preteen and teenage fans and who got "intimate" with very young people. Oh wait, he was. My bad.

I hate to think Michael was killed. But it has been a very long time since his death, and no final report. However he died, it's a tragedy.

This is America. If you're accused, you're guilty. God bless us, everyone.

Say, I just saw Michael Jackson at the mall buying some new gloves! Does these mean I'll get famous?

Michael Jackson is dead and will not be coming back.
Is there no one on this planet to challenge me?

Give Michael Jackson a break, damnit! We don't know what he did in his personal life. What we do know is he was one of the Greatest Pop Singers Ever.

Michael Jackson was a human being. People want to punish him even though he was never found guilty of anything. If you don't have respect for the living, can't you even have respect for the dead?
What is wrong with the world? We are so quick to throw stones at others, but can't handle pebbles being thrown at us.
Michael Jackson made a contribution to American Pop that will never be equalled. A billion people watched his funeral. Many of us really miss him.

Somebody claimed they saw Michael Jackson. And I guess they're wondering if he was killed! Really I wish we weren't right. I wish he will still here performing for us.

To be fair, it didn't take any form of miraculous prognostication to guess Jackson's death would be investigated as homicide, or that someone would claim to see him alive. By the time we posted this, it was pretty obvious Jackson's death was being thoroughly investigated. And as for his supposed appearance after his death, somebody was bound to claim that. They just happened to get it on video.

As it was told to me from on high (or while, i forget) prophesy is heretical...
but while you are tuned in what else you got?

Some of us still think your predictions were amazing! We'll watch and see if your next ones comes true!
Posted by: Marie Gilbert | August 31, 2009 10:12 PM
I saw this at Uncyclopedia and, like others, thought it was a joke. Simply amazing. How did you know? You act like your prediction's nothing but nobody else predicted this. I see you've made other predictions too, and look forward to seeing what you'll see next.
Posted by: Henpecked Henry | September 9, 2009 08:34 PM
I heard about this and thought it was a joke. But you really did predict this. Cool. Now tell me who am I going to marry and how much money does he make? A photo would be nice. Although if he makes millions, doesn't matter.

I was flying through Uncyclopedia, looking for the article about me, and found this instead. I want to clearly establish that my secret identity is not Michael Jackson, that I was not married to Lisa Marie Presley and her first name was not Lois, and that my secret headquarters is not at Neverland Ranch.

OMG! This is fantastic. You were so right! I hope Michael's doing another concert because I haven't seen him yet.
Posted by: Top Theresa | October 23, 2009 05:26 AM
I love your blog, and saw your prediction. Really I think Michael is better off lying in the lily field.
Posted by: Lily of the Valley | November 5, 2009 07:42 PM
Saw your blog on Wikipedia. I have a nice joke for you people! :) Why do elephants trumpet? They don't know how to play the violin.
That explains Michael Jackson.

Time heals all wounds but never brings back the dead. Michael was a shining star that fell into the sea and will never be seen again. Let the star live in memory, but that is where it dwells. It shall not be seen in this world again.

MICHAEL. JACKSON. IS. ALIVE.
Posted by: Tony the Fool | December 2, 2009 10:49 PM
A joke for you! What did the fish say when he hit a concrete wall? "Dam."
That's Michael Jackson.
Posted by: Christian Bob | December 3, 2009 11:47 AM
Michael's dead, you fools. I know it's true. Saw it on Fox News.
Posted by: Rev. Bootie | December 4, 2009 05:30 AM
Some people have all the answers. Now we know who. Now tell us when will Michael Jackson be elected President? Or will it be Pope?
I say Michael Jackson should be named a Discordian saint.

Good posting, You make good points in a concise and pertinent fashion, I will read more of your stuff, thank you for your time.
Posted by: Adrian Sole | December 8, 2009 10:56 PM
In my opinion you are mistaken. I can prove it. Write to me in PM.
Posted by: harmonyles | December 26, 2009 02:40 PM
I am final, I am sorry, but it absolutely another, instead of that is necessary for me. Michael Jackson is dead. Don't believe uncyclopedia.

This just reminds me that I miss michael, he was the best artist in the world :(

Nice blog at www.loveshade.org. Michael Jackson was a great pop star. I just read that the Texas Medical Board has restricted the doctor charged in Michael Jackson's death from administering the drug authorities say was responsible for killing the pop star.

George Michael appears as though he night go down (lol!) because of driving about stoned. Hey, is this a promise or a threat? It'd be like putting most men in a harem! Lol!
