Michael Jackson - 50 And Still Scary

Michael Jackson just recently turned 50, but I have to admit - he still scares me. He was black and then became white. He owned this enchantingly beautiful place called - Never land, but then he was rumored to be a pedophile!

He may be a superstar celebrity, but he still scares the living daylights out of me. His features don't look natural to me.

Here's my attempt at Michael Jackson's evolution



Here's Michael Jackson as a child star



And here he is as a young man. Definitely looked much better than he does now



And here's a side by side comparison of the rather big change! Creepy isn't it?

Beyonce Pulls A Michael Jackson Skin Whitening For Loreal Ad

Beyonce looks like she has done a Michael Jackson by going light in one of her Loreal commercial ads.

The skin whitening is rather disturbing I think. Whether done naturally (by natural I mean artificially/ clinically enhanced) or through digital enhancement.

I've heard of breasts being enhanced on some posters historically, but never for skin tone. It is rather insulting to the African American population I think, making a black girl look less black. Although I couldn't be sure.

But anyway, here's a picture of Beyonce before



Here's another nice image of Beyonce



And here's Beyonce on the Loreal ad. Does look kind of weird and Jackson-like don't you think?

Micheal Jackson's Neverland No More? Jackson's Neverland To Be Auctioned Unless $25M Debt Is Paid




Michael Jackson owes nearly $25 million for the sprawling California property called Neverland (named after an island in the story Peter Pan), which he bought in 1987 intending to create a fantasy-land for children. This $25 million is said to be more than three months' arrears on the property. If unpaid Neverland will be auctioned off on March 19 Santa Barbara official told the BBC.

What is Neverland you say? Well it's on 2,800 acre (1,100 hectare) property north-west of Santa Barbara that includes a zoo and fairground.


The erstwhile King of Pop has been living mainly in Las Vegas since returning to the United States a little more than a year ago following extended stays in Bahrain and Europe. He hasn't lived at Neverland, which he bought in 1988 for $17 million, since 2003, when police first raided his home while building a child molestation case against him. Jackson was acquitted of all charges in 2005 and immediately left the country according to an E!online article.

Per court documents obtained by Fox News, the auction would really bleed the property dry. It would include not just the grounds and buildings on the property, but all of the furnishings, appliances and various child-friendly accoutrements Jackson has added over the years, including "all merry-go-round type devices."

The list is mighty thorough:

  • "Generators, engines, boilers, incinerators, building materials, appliances and goods of every nature whatsoever…including…those for the purposes of supplying or distributing heat, cooling, electricity, gas, water, air and light…
  • "plumbing, bathtubs, water heaters, water closets, sinks, ranges, stoves, microwave ovens, refrigerators, dishwashers, disposals and any other kitchen equipment…
  • "all trees, shrubs and plants, sculptures, statuary and other outdoor artistic creations and displays…
  • "all railroad equipment, trains, locomotives, rail cars and other rolling stock…
  • "all Ferris wheels, carousels, merry-go-round type devices, indoor and outdoor gymnasium and athletic equipment…"
