Not good. The slant the media could take on this would be disgusting. We know that MJ's kids have already heard some stuff the media have been saying, you're glad that this could get out? It would only upset them more.
The media is pushing the 'MJ is a drug addict' angle and is pushing it particularly hard. It started from the moment his death was confirmed -- Gellar, Chopra, Backerman, the sleazeball porno creep who sued MJ (having a sr. moment, can't remember his name), the German doctor who claimed to have induced sleep during the History tour, and other hanger-ons who have claimed that MJ was addicted to prescription drugs for the last 15-20 years.
Yet a tabloid initally broke the story that his autopsy realized a very under weight MJ, among other things. The LAPD only denied SOME of those findings. Not all. The LAPD screwed up by initially ASSUMING that drug use played a role in MJ's death, and when the initial autopsy did not provide confirmation, AND after interviewing this doctor who was with MJ at the time of his death, did they go back and re-look at things.
The family doesn't know because they weren't around him and can only really speak to past patterns of behavior. They may have been suspicious, but they listened to the AEG-led media reports that all was well in rehearsal land -- just like all of us.
It is possible that a combination of MJ being under weight and malnurished, as well as having his sleep induced, may have pushed him over the edge. Of course, this would NOT jive with the 'MJ is a drug addict story'.
It would paint a picture of a man trying to live up to his obligation of performing a large amount of shows. It would paint a picture of a man who is a consummate, top notch professional who would not complain if things are not going well inside of his body. It would paint of picture of a man who would rather DIE than to disappoint anyone and was desparately trying to find a way to keep it all together. It would paint a picture of a man who was not aware of how ill he may have possibly been.
Of course, this is all conjecture on my part, but this is what is beginning to made sense to me.
We all see what we want to see. Especially when we love someone so much, that to think of the alternative is something that is too painful to bare.
One day after coming out of Klein's office, MJ had on leggings, remember that? Do you remember how skinny his legs were next to his rather large feet?
Looking at the TII rehearsal pictures more objectively, he does look rather thin and there is one picture that has never set well with me and it was one where you could see his face full on. He didn't look right, at least not to me.
We all know that MJ could do these routines in his sleep. That's the kind of pro he was. He was to singing and dancing that Michael Jordan was to basketball. I've seen Jordan play with a raging flu on a number of occasions. Most players would most certainly have taken the night off, but not Jordan. And that was when he played his best because he knew that this team depended upon him and basketball was not just a game for him -- he loved it enough to elevate himself to a different level.
That was MJ too. This was the man who fell 2 stories on that bridge set during the Earth Song and not only kept on singing, but did another full number before he fell out.
What I'm saying it that it's possible to 'see' what 'appears to be' a healthy looking MJ singing and dancing in rehearsals, but not know the physical struggles going on inside of him.
Maybe people around him noticed some things. Maybe others didn't. But I can tell you this: for a man who had a doctor around him 24/7 and not be able to see or understand what was going on with him is very disturbing in the least.
And I'm just going to put it out there: someone(s) knew something and didn't say anything because of the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ involved.
May their conscious haunt them for the rest of their lives...
