Michael's Diva Demands

Michael Jackson

There was all this talk about Michael Jackson attending the Grammy’s but the show aired on TV and we never saw Jacko. So what happened?

Michael Jackson was supposed to be honored at the award show last week but rumor has it that he was such a diva with his demands that they pulled the plug on honoring him.

Some of his reported demands were as follows: He wanted a special honoree to introduce him on stage. He demanded a special award, something no one had or would ever receive again. He wanted the entire event dedicated to his career with no less than 30 mentions referring to him as the ‘King of Pop,’ The NY Post reports.

The Grammy’s people obviously weren’t having it, that’s why Michael probably stayed home instead. What do you guys think, should they have done all that for the ‘King of Pop’?

I used to like Mr Jackson, he is a fantastic showman. But he is also a nonce, and paedophiles do not deserve to be given any publicity.

He's just mad because they wouldn't make an award honoring him molesting boys. Joey, he's not a living legend, he's a legendary pedophile. Wake up, kid!

Yeah, because everything in the Post must be taken as god's honest truth. The newspaper costs 25¢! Sounds like cold feet to me. Michael Jackson should have performed, and there was easily room to honor "Thriller" - I for one would have loved to see the weird Alica Keys/Sinatra duet and the will.i.am (c)rap cut out in order to let Jackson perform say, "Billie Jean." I'll bet the Grammy producers wish he'd shown up too, considering the low ratings.

Of course they should have done that for him. Half the flipping music world owes him their influence. For God sake his personal image has been mutilated of course he wants a heightened career image. He wants his personal life to fade under the attention of his career.

yo celebaddict learn how to spell. F--- you by the way. If pedophiles don't deserve to be honored. Idiots don't deserve to speak. Do the research and you'll think michael is innocent.

First of all, Michael jackson is NOT asking Those demands... it's only fabricated.... Sources mentionning this stupid news are certainly NOT liable. Second of all, for all of you morrons, he is NOT a pedophile... A pedophile would have been convicted. Some of you can be soooo damn stupid.... Some of you have nothing else to do but act like super duper morrons born in a land of stupidity..... Some of you are truly fucking retarded. Michael jackson is a great person and singer and made a difference in this world. Some stupid fuck like some of you who put stupid comments did NOTHING that will be remembered like he did. Try to do what he did, will see who's intelligent.

Mike you're the one who is a STUPID ASS. They are plenty of UNCONVICTED PEDOPHILES running around. Michael just got off that's all. Like OJ, Michael Blake, Spector. No doubt he sold millions. So what if he can sing and dance. Sleeping with boys is also another of his hobbies.

You can't believe everything you read in the papers and even if it was true, i don't believe the Grammy's would have a problem with the demands. At the end of the day Michael Jackson is a true living legend and no matter where he goes or what he does he creates the kind of excitment like no other and where there's Michael Jackson there is money. So am sure that the TV stations and the the Grammy's are all happy to make more money. By the way, if michael was really a pedophile, those people would be asking for head and not his money! LONG LIVE THE KING!

This report IS TOTALLY NOT TRUE. This is just tabloid reports trying to start controvery. MJ doesn't even care about the "King of Pop" title. Elizabeth Taylor is the one who started calling him that. Stop the mess!

For those calling MJ a child molester, you WANT HIM TO BE to justify your stupid hatred. ALL OF YOU know good and well he did not harm any kids. So stop the foolishness.

loo loo
wow, i'm really shocked at the outpouring of support for Michael here. did anyone ever stop to think that he might have been the king of pop AND a child molester? instead of just one or the other? believe he's a pedofile all the way, and question the fact that he's got sole custody of all 3 of his kids, (1 of whom has a different mother from the other two). i find it very odd that both mothers signed over all paternal rights to this guy... seems to me that he found the perfect surrogates for his little "family", i wonder how big those paydays were for the moms to sign off on all rights to their children. sick sick shit. yeah, yeah, yeah, he made wonderful music, i love his songs... but he's sick. you can't deny that. anyone who's seen that video inside neverland ranch and how he lives will agree. and come on... his pre-occupation w/ little boys? he's even admitted to liking them, and wanting them to sleep in his bed!!! WTF is that?!? no grown man should be having feelings like that. not if they are mentally stable.

It is no secret that the largely Jewish-owned media (especially television) has a wicked vendetta against Michael Jackson on account of his criticism of what he sees as the jewish parasitism which manufactures phony 'pop super stars' like Timberfake and his clones/clowns (e.g Brown, Usher, etc.). Anyone with a modicum of brains can easily 'reverse engineer' the jewish collusion of media-elites which are rejoicing in keep MJ down, and who secretly sponsor his scandalous degradation through the use of manufactured lies. It is not by accident, for example that the corporate manufactured skin-head looking MJ-parasite known as justin timberfake was proclaimed the new so-called king of pop by a 'magazine' run by jews. The media power-jews are also pissed of with Michael Jackson simply because he was living and associating with the Arab muslims in Bahrain. It is well known that the 'king of pop' label was imposed upon MJ by the media by a 'happy' contrivance of words by someone else (probably Liz Taylor) and is not a label he invented for himself, nor one which he cares about in the least bit. This prodigal talent, genius, and humanitarian generosity are simply TOO MUCH in grandiosity to contain in such a feeble phrase as the 'king of pop'...

Justing Timberlake is the 'king of poop'!!!!! That is too funny!!! But it's true! And now that it's come to my attention, it is true that he does look like a skinhead!! He is nothing but a corporate manufactured mediocrity of smoke and mirrors whose primary demographic target are girls between 11-17...The music stats on his 'albums' are no doubt invented in attempts to get kids to increase company profits!! there is only one 'King of Pop and Dance' and that is the incomparable Michael Jackson!

if he was a pedophile why would he admit to sleeping in the same bed as children he was aquitted on 10 felony and 4 misdemeanor counts, if he had molested gavin arvizo there would have been atleast one guilty charge out of 14

HELP MICHAEL REACH #1! We're thrilled that it looks like "Thriller 25" is very close to being the #1 album in the country next week. We need your help to make sure it happens. If you haven't already bought this album, be sure to do so before Sunday. If you've already bought your copy, now would be a great time to buy one for a friend or loved one. You can buy it at all major music stores

you dumb fucks mike fuckin originally takes this kid who accussed him of molestation in 2004 into his home, CUREs HIM OF CANCER (dude was dying, mike paid for all his shit, his family etc. everything) then when mike stops paying for everything because the kid is better the Mom gets pissed so she tries to get as much off him as possible by making up this shit. the fuckin kid was the one who originally asked to see MJ as his dying wish, mike didnt invite him there, he accepeted the dying kids request. yall dumb fuckin haters fall back. Mike has spent millions on healing sick children and donated millions to charity. he didnt have a childhood so go figure. at one of his concerts a bug was on stage he stopped the show and insisted it not be killed and removed carefully. if he isnt gonna hurt a bug hes not gonna be fucking hurting little kikds you ignorant fucks. they never slept in the same bed. mikes bedroom is 2 storeys, bigger than most yall houses. they have like a sleep over in there, watch cartoons BEING KIDS! this guys fuckin rep is so tarnished by yall bullshit.

I take nothing from him as far as an entertainer. He is one of the greatest but he's also a child molester too. You can't talk about one without the other.

nora hes not a fuckin molester. i could walk up to damn kanye wests house then say some bullshit like he molested my little cousin or something, take it court just like they done with mike. it dont mean kanyes a molester. but it sure does cast doubt over his credibility. just like whats happened to mike which has clearly clouded ure judgement. there is no proof. theyre just allegations, false allegations. fucks sake. stop adding fuel to the fire and shut up.

Looks like Michael Jackson is once again being ultra-reclusive, or at least, ultra-silent. This total mystery and mystique about his musical plans only makes the excitement grow amongst the public at large. This was the same formula which worked for him back in the 1980's decade. I'm pretty sure he's aware of this strategy, and he may very well once again go Super Nova on everyone's ass--skeptics, critics, and fans alike!!!

Nora: He was never convicted of being a child molester despite draconian measures to 'prove' his gult, although it was proven substantially he was the victim of an extortion plot by a family with a HISTORY of fraud--the Arvizo family, that is. Also, it is well known that the guy who was paid off during in 1994 REFUSED to testify in court against MJ during the 2004-5 trial. From a legal standpoint, this refusal on his behalf to buttress the Arvizo boy's claims signaled that he (the first guy) could (and would probably) be revealed in court for the lying sack of shit he was for extoring MJ back in the early 1990's.

I hate haters! Get it through your thick skulls-MJ is INNOCENT! This article does not appear to be based on any facts; MJ is too humble to demand anything of this sort. I think it is more likely that he just got too nervous to do it since he hasn't performed live for a long time.

Romeo how the hell do you know posters on this board aren't black? You don't. I agree with Nora and think he is a child molesting freak too. Even Quincy Jones said Michael had a "problem" when asked about the charges. So shove your racist bullshit up your ass.

All I have to say is whoever's talking all this trash about Michael Jackson is full of shit, jealous and can't wait to believe what the media says. The article is tabloid junk and if you believe what they say you mines well still believe in Santa Claus. Nothing they say about Michael can be proven and there's never no evidence. Yes he should have been honored and he is the Greatest of them all whether haters want to admit it or not and it is a mixture of racism, jealousy, extortion, and evilness. Michael made Grammy history so why not honor him. Most of the younger artist who was there tries to be like him and Michael is more talented and out sold every other artist that was there. I can't name not one person who doesn't look up to him. And I can name plenty of evidence to prove he's not a child molester if y'all want to take it there so let me say thisonce and for all bow down and respect the KING OF POP. HATERS!!!!!!!
