ya. he was too much |

That's speculative though, it hasn't been 100% confirmed. Though I do agree that it's likely that Michael is not the biological father. |

lol @ mariah carey being a total diva. the song is over and she has to do like 20 additional accapella runs at the end just to out sing the backup singer.
that poem from maya angelou was soooo good.
"We Had Him"
Beloveds, now we know that we know nothing.
Now that our bright and shining star can slip away from our finger tips like a puff of summer wind.
Without notice, our dear love can escape our doding embrace.
Sing our songs among the stars and walk our dances across the face of the moon.
In the instance we learn that Michael is gone, we know nothing.
No clocks can tell our time and no oceans can rush our tides.
With the abrupt absence of our treasure, though we are many, each of us is achingly alone; piercingly alone.
Only when we confess our confusion can we remember that he was a gift to us and we did have him.
He came to us from the Creator, trailing creativity in abundance.
Despite the anguish of life, he was sheethed in Mother Love and family love and survived.
And did not more than that, he thrived.
With passion and compassion. Humor and Style.
We had him.
Whether we knew who he was or did not know, he was ours and we were his.
We had him.
Beautiful, delighting our eyes. he raked his hat.
Slant over his brow and took a pose on his toes for all of us and we laughed and stomped our feet for him.
We were enchanted with his passion because he held nothing; he gave us all he had been given.
Today in Tokyo, beneath the Eifel Tower. In Ghana's Black Star Square, in Johannasburg, and Pittsburgh. In Birmingham, Alabama and Birmingham, England. We are missing Michael Jackson.
But we do know we had him.
And we are the world. |

I know! Mariah is hilarious. With all the hand movements like she was conducting a gigantic 100 piece symphony or something... lol...
Top Level Diva. |

and neither is Debbie - she was just a surrogate mother, carrying the babies (so they say) |

I'll go a step farther and say that he is a biggot, racist, i have 0 respect for that guy. Totally useless and just a waste of breath. Al Sharpton should have been a blow job. |

I actually always believed he was the father until last week when for the first time I noticed that the kids do not look like they are half black at all...I guess that shows how much I look at people's skin tone..
Although, they do have this beautiful skin tone that I can't put my finger on...For some reason, to me it seems like they glow...I dunno if that makes sense...lol..
as for Al Sharpton..I do have to say I was moved when he addressed the kids and said:
“there weren't nothing strange about your daddy"
It was strange what your daddy had to deal with but he dealt with it,” |

I was always speculative that he was the father, especially with how blonde Prince was. It just didn't seem like he could be half black though. But after seeing Paris, it mulatto (sp?).

I will haven't gotten a chance to watch the full thing b/c this week has been crazy, so I havne't seen Al's speech yet. That quote is very sweet though, and I think it's very important for the kids to know that. |

It pisses me off how the founding fathers of the civil rights movement fought so hard for equality and people like Rev Al Sharpton continue to alienate African Americans and create a sense of division between different ethnicities in the US with his speeches and actions.
Also, he's an idiot as he refers to black people as a race. There is one biological human race "HOMOSAPIEN" and these so called races such as Caucasian, Negroid/African, Asian, etc. were terms created by a French philosopher who inspired the Nazis.
On the other hand, Michael Jackson's children are beautiful; their skin really does glow! |

yup. all of them are very good looking.
Paris will be a bomb shell and Blanket is soooou cute with the long hair. I think the Debbie isn't even the mother because there is no way that those beautiful two kids come from that ugly/vile woman. |
