    frankieo: you got to be kidding me????

    Yes, the Brits did it first. I was passing by liverpool street station when fat kids that needs to be on a dental program was singing Billy Jean as if it was an football song. The Swedes obviously did it again and did it right.

    Re: vermilionskin – I must agree w/ you. very sad.



  10. 110

    I hear Perez is still too fat to be a Swede. In other news, Swedes don't draw cocks and cocaine on pics of stars.



  11. 111

    Thats a tribute!!! Amazing :)



  12. 112

    Cool.



  13. 113

    that is so cool. michael is probably looking down on those ppl so happy. he tried to bring us all together thru his music…and i think he has somewhat succeeded. i remember that is one of the first dances i ever tried to do…and with some practice, i was pretty good…lol…ahh, memories….

    Re: Lady B. Good – I see you can't stand the fact that a black man is loved all by the World. More so than you jealous hateful pieces of white trash. Get over it.

    Re: epic – So if someone accuses you of something terrible, just the accusation alone should make your friends and family not have anything to do with toy? You're ridiculous…



  19. 119

    Woooh! Heja Sverige!

    Amazing but more creativity would have been nice. The idea is copied check the youtube video of the promo for The Sound of Music" audition in the Antwerp Central Station in Belgium.



  21. 121

    At first I thought it was a video of a huge crown beating up Perez. That would have been much more entertaining.



  22. 122

    The swedish dance collective Bounce actually acame up with the idea and invited the public to a short choreographed session before hitting the streets. :D It's awesome to be swedish!

  25. 125

    The initiative for this is taken by a dance group called Bounce. They asked around - come and celebrate the memory of MJ - and 3-400 people showed up. They teached the steps for 30 minutes and danced around in Stockholm at several places during the day. It's great.
    Thank you Bounce
    Thank you Richard Herrey for serving everybody a free meal and drink
    Thanks MJ for everything!

    Re: prettyface2 – Here you have all the information.
    Part 1.

    In 2005 details about his 1993 settlement leaked. Remember, the boy REFUSED to testify, thats why a settlement happened in the first case. The leaked settlement document in 2005 reveals several interesting facts:
    1) Michael Jackson denied any wrongdoing.
    2) The boy and his parents could have still testified against Jackson in the criminal trial.
    3) Jackson only settled over claims of negligence and not over claims of child molestation. In cases where a negligence charge is bought before a defendent, it's common for insurance agencies representing stars to have an "out" in their contract that allows them to settle a case contrary to their client's, Michael Jackson's—wishes. Michaels insurance company had legal control over the decision. They over rode Michaels decision and they arranged and paid the settlement. Michael never paid a nickle. Because of double jeopardy, anyone accused of a crime will never have to defend themselves for the same allegation twice unless one trial takes place in civil court and the other in criminal court. This was the situation with Michael Jackson in 1993.

    What people also dont realize is that when Jackson paid his settlement, he was settling a civil case not a criminal case; he was not being prosecuted, he was being sued.

    Re: UrMajestyMsG – Morning Hottie……….♥♥♥ looking fine..



  33. 133

    Freaking awesome! Love it.

    RIP, MJ! We love you!



  34. 134

    Re: prettyface2 – There is a clause in the settlement which states that MJ in no way acknowledges any wrongdoing by signing the settlement. Another clause tells that a settlement in the civil case in no way affects the recipients right to testify in a criminal case. The reason no criminal case was brought in 1993 was that the allegations were pathetic and the D.A had no proof. The D.A presented his case to TWO grand juries (one in santa barbara and one in LA) and they tossed the case out! There were no proof at all. Remember, they raided several homes of MJ and they found NOTHING. They went through his video collection, his pictures… nothing nothing. And the most important. NO singel collobartive witness was found, this is very important. A pedphile doesnt stop with one victim, as soon as one steps frwards, many others claim. Just look at the catholic church.. one came forward then so many others dared to speak up. In MJ case.. NO witness was found at all.
    The settlement did NOT end the investigation. The Chandlers (the family) have had the chances to TESTIFY all along, but have refused everytime. Jordy (the kid) refused to show up in 2005 to testify despite the prosecution begged him. Acoording to some reports, MJ's defence attorney had FRIENDS of Jordy who were going to testify that Jordy told them that his parents forced him to lie.



  35. 135

    This is crap. Do you think these hypocrite sweeds would allow blacks to move their country? Yet there they are thinking they're cool dancing one of the greatest black entertainers who ever lived. Bull Crap.



  36. 136

    Happy times, happy tears.



  37. 137

    Re: prettyface2 – PART 3. According to private detective Anthony Pellicano, the kid told him "My dad wants cash". His dad was tape-recorded saying that all of this is irrelevant if it helps his kids and that he is going to destroy MJ. The boy never accused MJ of anything before he was forced into it by his father. the mother called this allegations against MJ bs. The kid coulnt either recall details about where and when it had happened, he only said WHAT had happened. The insurance company paid 15 million. 5 million went to the kids lawyer. 3 million went to his parents and the kid got around 7 million. His father didn’t like that so he sued MJ once again for 60 million dollars but lost. Then the boy hasn't spoken to his parents since that time. The kid seeked for legal emanicapation at age 14-15 from his parents and got it .His mom testified in 2005 saying she has not spoken to her son for 11 years. The BOY refused to live with his parents when he was 14. Over the past five years, the boy has sued his dad twice. One time his dad tried to get his money, the other time in 2006, the boy claimed his dad tried to kill him. His dad tried to choke him and struck his son's head with a dumbbell weight. And at that time he asked a LA court to open his file about a case in LA (presumably the MJ case) but his father found out and COUNTERSUED HIM for a breach of contract because there were an agreement that forbade them to talk about this publicly.

    Re: Long Dong Connery – morning sir…and thank u, ur not so bad urself STUD!! lol



  39. 139

    i think these spontaneous dancers/flash mobs or whatever they're called are absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!!! they always give me such a pick me up and smile! kudos!



  40. 140

    Nielsen SoundScan numbers also show that Jackson sold 800,000 albums last week — nearly double the sales from the previous week.
    Data from the week ending Sunday — the first full week since Jackson died on June 25 — show that Jackson claimed the entire Top 10 on the Top Catalog Album chart………….
    The Billboard dude was on MSNBC and he says that Michael is breaking records that Billboard has never even seen before. He says that it will happen next week as well.
    GO MIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!! COME ON PPL. BUY MORE IF YOU CAN. HELP MJ, THATS THE LAST THING WE CAN DO. BUY HIS MUSIC AND KEEP HIS LEGACY ALIVE!!!!!!

    Re: WhippedCream – sorry? what hate texts? i have no compassion - it's genetic, sorry.



  42. 142

    this is very cool. People can say what they want and they can bash MJ, but the man was an icon. He's touched so many people and NO I DON"T MEAN LITERALLY. He will be missed greatly.



  43. 143

    Sweden rules the world

    144

    Re: Kasey19 – "to do with toy"? sorry, i don't understand that.
    okay. lets get the "facts" i read that the first boy, whatever his name was told of oralsex he had with MJ. they two have supposendly been best friends. i don't know if it's true, but after all MJ paid 24 million to get rid of them. shady, isn't it?
    it's easy to say that he's guilty, it's also easy to say that he is innocent - the truth may lay somewhere in between.
    yes - i lost respect for him - but that doesn't mean i hate him or think he's guilty, but i am still able to see clear - unlike most of you.



  45. 145

    That rocked. *tear* miss you, MJ



  46. 146

    Re: jkf

    no, i did not forget to mention that he was pedophile, because he wasn't.

    *JOHANNA-SWEDEN
    I was there, it was fantastic… Swedish people have always been huge fans of Michael, and this last week it's been crazy… his music is playing in every club, every store, every radio channel… I loved him. Btw, he was not a pedophile. Know why? Because he was a CHILD himself! Long live the King - Du finns i mitt hjärta

    WORD! Jag hĂ¥ller med dig!
    Rest In Peace KING!

    Baby//Sweden



  53. 153

    Since Michael's passing I knew I had tears to release and wondered where they were. They found me with this. I sobbed and they flowed and I very much needed the release. PROOF people are awesome just given the chance. Myself (52) my son (33) and my daughter (12) forever thank you for the beat. Smile down at us MJ!

    Re: Azorean – Check your facts before you go prejudice - Sweden tops the European statistics when it comes to accepting migrants/refugees.

    Fucking awesome! This is why people love Michael! His music touched everyone all around the world and bought races together! He was the greatest! Regardless of what haters like Bill O'Reilly have to say! Talking about his behavior when he was leaving disturbing messages on young girls phones! Fucking old racist pervert!
