Several readers have asked if I was going to post about Michael Jacksons death. Ive held out and restrained from making any comment so far because of the utter overload of fake/real/rumors/news on his death, his state of mind and body prior to, and his life in general. I believe most sites (including some news sites of reputable name) have turned Michaels’ death into pure sensationalism. I know regardles how controversial his life had been, if I were his family I would not appreciate so many people not involved with him speculating and causing new and worse rumors to arise. There have been very few sites and programs that have treated his death as what it is: a tragic loss of an incredibly talented artist.
No matter what artistic form; music, acting, writing, directing, painting…etc. Losing someone who has made such a difference in the world, the industry and millions of individuals lives with his art is tragic and should be treated with respect. So many fans have it, why cant some of the media or gossip sites do the same? I was shocked at what happened with Perez Hilton and the backlash from his posts, and I completey understood the publics reaction. We should treat our public figures differently.
Today his memorial is taking place here in LA. Its good to finally see his death treated with love and respect. Regardles of a persons controversies during life, you need to respect this time for his family and loved ones. Like my mother used to say: "if you arent going to say something nice, just dont say anything at all."
Michael Jackson, Rest in Peace. Our heart at BREAKALEGG goes out to you and yours.
