Rest In Peace to Jess Garcia
This week, it was announced that fellow MJ fan/MJ advocate, Jess Garcia, passed away last week. This was a shock in the fan community. Here is the link to the Gofundme page - https://www.gofundme.com/f/in-memory-of-jess-garcia?utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter
Jess was part of many things that dealt with the reaction to the Leaving Neverland foolery. She worked on Square One, did a podcast discussing the false movie such as this one -
It is always sad to see someone passed away in their prime of their lives. I hope that her family and loved ones are holding up and may she rest in peace.
Revisted: Bevy Smith's Interview with the Jacksons/Michael Thanks Elephant Man
I wanted to revisited the two topics that I previously discussed on this podcasts for two very different reasons. The first one is being revisited because of technical issues.
The second reason was because I was falling asleep while talking about the subject.
Dan Reed Blames "Jackson Machine" for the LN Backlash and States Other Nonsense/New MJ Doc That is Tabloid.
Once again, Dan Reed is lying about Michael but what else is new? He stated in a recent podcast interview that the reason why Leaving Neverland was trashed was because of the "Jackson Machine". I guess Dan Reed forgot that Taj and Brandi were ignored by almost ALL mainstream media but his two liars were everywhere. Taj and Brandi had to do podcast interviews on Youtube and the radio while Dan and his sidekicks were all over the place like Good Morning America, CBS Morning, Today Show, Good Morning Britain, Oprah LN Special among other things. Also, Michael's side of the story was completely ignored by the mainstream media. While Wade and James was getting photoshoots from Billboard.com, Taj and the like, were struggling to get anyone in the mainstream media to talk to them about their uncle's innocence.
No common sense person will learn about Michael from two fools who cannot keep their lies straight and who hasn't told any facts about Michael for as long as they "known" Michael. Dan silly ass learns about Michael from two losers who really did not know him but not from people that actually knew Michael. If Dan really knew Michael, he would not even remotely call Michael a "pedophile" and/nor/or "gay".
The R. Kelly Trial: Why People Need to Stop Comparing Michael to Robert Kelly.
Both cases/trials were not the same.
An account on twitter created a post asking people what is their best MJ song that isn't Thriller or Billie Jean and this made Michael's songs trend. Cancel who??
Michael's son, Prince was asked about this. This is what he stated -
The Estate Dropped The Ball on #MJ50
As usual, the people who work for the Estate of Michael Jackson dropped the ball regarding the 50th anniversary of Michael's solo career.
Dave Chappelle Exposed The Hypocrites and Why This Relates to MJ
Recently, comedian Dave Chappelle did a comedy special for Netflix called The Closer. He has been receiving a lot of controversy because of his views of the LGBTQ community. He angered the people he angered and he made it clear on why he stated what he stated about them.
It kind of reminds me of the backlash he received when he called out the liars Robson and Safechuck on his 2019 comedy special Sticks and Stones. Chappelle basically ruined all the credibility of LN by stated that he did not believe those "MFers" and that no one should watch that movie. He stated it was disgusting and even stated that Charlie Murphy (RIP) told him that MJ was into women. Dan Reed and Robson released their lame statements regarding what Chappelle stated but no one cared anymore.
Chappelle has the guts to call out the hypocrites and does not care.
He Can't Get Cancelled: MJ Has 23M Subscribers on Youtube
Michael reached 23M subscribers on Youtube. Once again, who is cancelling Michael? No one.
Megan Kelly "Defends" Michael... Too Weird But the Tide Could Be Changing.
I never thought I will see the day that Megan Kelly, who openly trashed Michael in 2018, would "defend" him in 2021. I did not expect this at all. She did an interview with Adam Curry who is a podcaster who used to be an MTV VJ. He stated some very interesting things about MJ -
Is the tide turning or will she go back to her old ways??? Only time will tell.
