Who's Crazier? Michael Jackson Or His Fans?



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Okay, goofily off-topic for this blog but it's late and I couldn't believe what I read. Besides, I've avoided all celebrity trials in the past (life is too short) but may be unable to resist Michael Jackson's travails. Dozens of "sexually explicit" and "adult oriented" videos and magazines will be entered into evidence at the trial -- both heterosexual and homosexual in nature. One magazine contains the fingerprints of Jackson and the young boy who has accused him of molestation. Jackson's lawyers have already floated the idea that they will show Jackson found the boy with the mag and took it out of his hands -- hence the reason both their fingerprints are on it. ("Put that Freshmen magazine down!" ordered MJ with stern parental authority.)

Here's what kills me, from the New York Post.

"I have to be here," said fan Lidi Gyamoph to the New York Post, who had traveled from Canterbury, England, leaving her three young children with relatives, so she could show her support for Jackson. "I couldn't stay at home looking after my kids knowing this tragedy is happening. I would lay my life on the fact he's innocent."

I thought that was laughable. Then I read her next comment.

"Gyamoph, 25, added, "If he said tomorrow, 'I will adopt your children for a year,' I would say 'Enjoy yourselves.' "

Wow. You couldn't make that up.
