Michael received 11 nominations for the MTV VMAs, Lisa Marie pregnancy test and more...



 
Now I might ask a stupid question...

But what is the story with Lisa Maries pregnancy test?
 
Now I might ask a stupid question...

But what is the story with Lisa Maries pregnancy test?
I think it went like this:

Once upon a time in the mid 90s, there was a man named Michael Joseph Jackson, a legend widely known for his music (by his nickname 'King of Pop") and for his philanthropist motives (Make that change, Heal The World, save the Earth, etc.), and a woman named Lisa Marie Presley, the daughter of Elvis Presley, who loved each other (a lot?) to the point where they got married and...had some fun. Then Lisa grew worrisome, or rather ecstatic, of the possible consequences of that fun and boom, took a pregnancy test, only to be met with the "negative" news.

JK, I am not aware of what urged Lisa to do this, or am I? :D

I&#8217;ll be honest with you, pregnancy test rumors were pretty much the last thing I expected to read about when I noticed new activity on the HIStory 25 thread. :laughing:

Please stay on topic in ALL discussions. This thread is about the 25th anniversary of the HIStory album and all things HIStory, but it is not about the entire span of the HIStory era; nor is it about Lisa Marie, pregnancy tests and why or why not she didn't have children with Michael.

Is it just me or has the merch been delayed?

Yeah, I could have sworn it said release date July 17th for the second batch of merch, and now it says August 7th. That’s for the European store. I guess, everything’s still slowed down because of the pandemic, like supply bottlenecks due to shirt factories and print shops not running at full capacity etc. Understandable, but a quick e-mail would have been helpful.
 
^^ Yeah, I remember seeing a July release date.

Pretty much every online store has been slowed by COVID -- I have packages from in March/April that have yet to be delivered -- and communication seems to vary based on the merchant. I know the website has a disclaimer at the very top, but the Estate should still send out some sort of email.

The British publisher Sixteen11 Media Group Ltd just announced that for the first time, they have cataloged their first book on Amazon due to “popular demand”.

“The Story of HIStory” by Pez Jax was so far only available on their platform Sixteen11.com.

Now fans in the UK and Europe can purchase the book “The Story of HIStory” on Amazon.

Speaking to one of Sixteen11 directors, he told us that being a self-published company, and publishing very niche publications for fans is more difficult to compete with big distribution chains such as amazon. He said “but we listened to the fans and their needs and we understood that many fans use Amazon as a platform to find books and collectors about Michael Jackson. Therefore we have decided to have a go at it. We would love to see this book having the success that it deserves and hoping that new people will pick up this book and find amazing stories about Michael.”

While the price difference is due to the privilege to have the book on Amazon, we hope fans will support this amazing book detailing how the most personal Michael Jackson album was created. A great way to celebrate #HIStory25

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Story-HISt...ents=p_27:Pez+Jax&s=books&sr=1-2&text=Pez+Jax

Order on AMAZON for £19.99 (+shipping)
Order on Sixteen11 for £14.99 (+shipping)

The book is also on pre-order in French “L’histoire d’HIStory” but only at Sixteen11.com so far!
