Frank Cascio "My Friend Michael"/ Excerpt @pg151/New Interview Post 3743

Re: Frank Cascio to write memoir of his friend Michael Jackson / official press release at pg12

its well documented why frank couldnt testify during the trial.mez never called him for starters.it really is a stupid argument by those who have issues with him and the cascios were with him in bahrain etc afterwards
 
Re: Frank Cascio to write memoir of his friend Michael Jackson / official press release at pg12

Does anyone have transcripts or video of Frank Cascio and Catherine Crier on her show. I cant remember if I saw it.

Was it Frank's choice not to testify or TMez's?

Re: Frank Cascio to write memoir of his friend Michael Jackson / official press release at pg12

I'm against this book be it positive or negative I don't care, and I'm not one of those who fell into the 'Michael' mess. I just want all the other people, except for his estate, to stop profiting from Michael Jackson's name. I want this to stop, (a naive thought I know). I know that this book will most likely be positive. I still don't want it.

Re: Frank Cascio to write memoir of his friend Michael Jackson / official press release at pg12

I have a friend that I have been friends with 30 years now. I could not write a book about her (if she was famous or not). Some things should be private. I understand the need to defend Michael and wanting people to see how great a person he was. Would he want this? I think there are other ways to show who Michael was then always writing a book or something.
 
Rather a book from Frank then the BG´s, they worked for him on and off for only 1 year and 9 months. They were not his friends, only employee friends.

And writing a book that will set the record straight, for who? Only fans will buy the book and they already know everything about Michael and what is right and what is wrong. For public to buy the book there must be some juicy stuff. I´m sure Frank will include what he talked about back in 2003 and 2005. True or not.
 
Re: Frank Cascio to write memoir of his friend Michael Jackson / official press release at pg12

Frank never testified on Michael's behalf because he didn't have to, nor was he called in to testify. I believe T-Mez stated this a little while ago himself, and he even believed bringing a "co-conspirator" to testify would've made matters worse for the defense. I find it funny Karen Faye of all people is talking about "privacy", if I recall she was the first person and only person to post pictures of Michael's resting place on facebook, thus resulting in them being posted all over the internet. Kind of funny some of us defend people like this, when it seems fit.

From the book's promotional describtion: "Packed with never-before-seen photos, amazingly insightful revelations, personal anecdotes, and private moments that are essential for every Michael Jackson fan, this book is a treasury of Michael Jackson lore, one that both celebrates his life and presents him as the special person that he really was."

Who could resist buying that, right?

What's essential about a certain someone for those who care about that certain someone is enough. There have been waves upon waves of proofs that are a clear testimony of Michael's character. It is those who are in denial, who don't care about all the info they got or is right there in their face and just settle for what the media feeds them. His fans... again, they should know a lot about him. No need to dig up for things that that particular person held dear and trusted others/their so-called friends to keep private. Too many people in Jackson's life have been estranged from this key-term: 'privacy'. The One thing Jackson never really got to have, but, heck, since he's dead now, it doesn't matter anymore. That takes respect at the end of the day. Not even going to delve into the Cascio tracks off of Michael, that was something that can't be erased, lies can't be erased, unfortunately, can be believed all too often.

Positive... What is left positive in all this? When a most dissected man's life, character, person, body, soul has been analysed, sliced and diced for a salivating public to death literally, what's left of positivity just cuz it bears the label 'positive'? How about settling for a few words only and that's it? Personal anecdotes, private moments. That's right: private and personal means the same thing. If Jackson ever wanted these published for a book, he'd have done that. 0_0..... Oh, but he was MJ, so his privacy was turned into publicity too often anyway, not to mention distorted, so all people should see what's left of its shreds.

Also, more should know that MJ actually did far too many interviews than he's credited for, esp in the 70's and the 2000's. Consisting of his own words, including about himself. This obsession with needing to know more than what the person tells you, esp when he's a kind person, however imperfect, is strange. It is human nature to know more and more about those you love, but that's not okay, and the line has been drawn time and time again in his case. Nothing is ever enough.... Do the media bring those rare interviews to attention, who weren't few at all, at least his most renown interviews, although they were made with their help? No. This book will get the same treatment on behalf of the media, yet the public are gonna read more intimate, private moments, so that'll be okay........

Yet, aren't we the same ones who discuss and talk about how funny it is when Michael dropped his glove in the toilet, and other private details that we applaud in a book written by none other than J. Randy Tamborelli?

You don't get it? I'm really surprised by that. How about this...*

Bob Jones knew Michael Jackson longer than the Cascios. And worked with him during some of his most successful years. Was it ok for him to write a book alleging questionable behaviour on Michael's part which, up until then, hadn't been proved or disproved in a court of law? Or should the fans have embraced the news of such a book with open arms?

The songs are questionable. For some of us they are blatently fraudulent. Hence anything the Cascio's say will be held in suspicion. Nothing could be clearer.

Look in the mirror and realize what you're doing and how hypocritical you sound. We no longer value Bob Jones or his opinion for the things he said, regarding Michael and his behavior, which like you said hadn't been proved or disproved in a court of law. YET, you're berating the Cascio's, and become highly suspicious of them over something that, as of now, hasn't been proved or disproved in a court of law.

This type of logic is quite faulty, if you ask me.

I have always felt that the best people to really tell and make people understand who Michael really was are his children. The few times we have heard them speak you see Michael as a human being. They speak the truth.

I would like to see his friends and family do something that helps people in Michael's name. Build a place for troubled kids to go to or help children in musical education etc. Something that Michael would do. People write books all the time. Doing something long lasting and benefits people who really need help.

To be fair, I don't see fans here defending Karen Faye's action nor applauding the so-called biography by J. Rany Tamborelli.

I never touch the book by Tamborelli nor follow Karen. Actually, Karen Faye, Tamborelli and the Cascios share one thing in common - gainning financially and getting attention by namechecking Michael Jackson.
 
Re: Frank Cascio to write memoir of his friend Michael Jackson / official press release at pg12

Well, friends, staff, and many who just met Michael by chance dare to write books, give interviews, or use Twitter accounts to give details about Michael's private life. It's funny for me to see someone opening up about how Michael felt about Frank, while asking for Michael's privacy to be respected. Funny how people ask for others to do what they can't do themselves... though they are doing it for free when it comes to Twitter.... so in all justice one can't say they are getting any profits... right? yeahh.... :rolleyes:

Why do we need a book about Michael's private life? Why do we still feel this need to know every single detail about his every day life? are we ever going to stop? have't we had enough? :scratch:

I stress the WE, because this book is meant for us, MJ fans. Honestly, I don't see any haters buying the book to get their minds changed about Michael. As long as we MJ fans keep buying this kind of tell-all books, there will be many other friends-relatives-staff-doctors getting paid for their "intimate stories" about Michael Jackson.

I trust this will be a positive book. However, what we and others really need to have is a book about the ARTIST, the musical and business GENIUS Michael Jackson was. About his work, the impact of his work on our society, our culture, the music industry, enterteinment, video, etc.

But it seems like Michael is simply too complex a GENIUS to be seriously studied, so people choose to focus on the really not important issues. His private life... it's that: PRIVATE.

A want to know about the Genius in Michael!!

I know right? So many people around here preach this holier than thou attitude of "respecting Michael's privacy" yet the manhood and autopsy report threads are among the most popular on this forum. So I guess it's OK to post close-ups of Michael's d*ck and disect the reasons for him using a condom catheter and what not, but when Frank writes about how he went fishing with MJ or w/e these same people get on their high hourse and condemn it because it's an invasion of Michael's privacy :smilerolleyes:

The hypocricy of some people on this forum really gets on my nerves. For example, everyone talks about how much they hate tabloids yet the forum is flooded with TMZ articles. These articles are usually taken for truth, esp. when it suits their agenda (i.e. bashing Michael's family/friends). Fans talk about how people are 'brainwashed' into believing MJ was guilty because they only heard one side of the story and won't listen to Michael's defense, yet they condemn the Cascios for wanting to defend themselves when they stand accused. Like Michael, their guilt has never been proven in a court of law but somehow that's completely irrelevant to some. They won't file a complaint for fraude though. Many complain about the books written about MJ yet they all seem to know those little stories from Katherine's/Maldonado's/Taraborelli's etc. books. The rest of the JFam is constantly mocked due to their failed careers and the fact that nobody is interested in them, but at the same time many complain about the fact that Katherine doesn't go on Oprah to talk about Jermaine or Randy. I can go on like this forever.

I guarantee you that when this book comes out, the vast majority of MJ fans on here will read it one way or the other, including the ones who are complaining the loudest right now.

As a regular visitor of the manhood thread, I want to say that thread is far from invading Michael's privacy. No one ever posted an explicit picture of Michael's penis or cause any embarassment. All pictures and screenshots are previously published or released. All discussions are delightful and carried with good sense of humor.

There is no harm or any intention to invade Michael's privacy whatsoever.

As a matter of fact, the manhood thread is closely monitored.

Because we are fans of Michael Jackson and it is very natural for fans to want to read uplifting stories about their idol that provide an insight into his character. I am not going to feel guilty about this. Personally, I am not just a fan of Michael the artist but also Michael the man. He is a rolemodel to me. I do not need to know every detail of his private life. The only books I ever read regarding Michael/JFam is Moonwalk, Jackson Family Values and Katherine's book. I just love reading positive stories about Michael that demonstrate what a beautiful soul he had and I honestly don't think Michael would have any problems with this. So I don't feel bad about it.

I trust this will be a positive book. However, what we and others really need to have is a book about the ARTIST, the musical and business GENIUS Michael Jackson was. About his work, the impact of his work on our society, our culture, the music industry, enterteinment, video, etc.

I have visited the thread too (out of curiosity, I didn't know what it was). In essence, it is a place where fans post images and gifs that highlight Michael's penis, whereafter other fans post sexually suggestive remarks. That is what is is, lol. Now I don't judge you guys for it, to each his own I guess. Michael won't know anyway. But if he did, he would mind. In Michael's own words: "If I went on stage thinking about what goes through women's heads, I would never go out on stage. If I was suddenly to start thinking about what they were thinking about... sex, or what I look like naked, then, oh God, that would be so embarrassing. I could never go out. That's so horrible". Personally, I consider posting close-ups of Michael's private parts (usually in erected state) to be an invasion of privacy. That's just my own standards though, I would never impose them onto someone else. I also consider disecting Michael's medical records to be an invasion of privacy yet it is common practice around here. Again, just my own opinion. You won't find me in the manhood or AR thread to voice my disapproval. I guess my point is, we all have different perceptions of what is an invasion of privacy and what not. I personally see no harm in reading uplifting stories about Michael from a long-time friend who is not proven to have done anything wrong. Others may feel differently, but I do not like to be made feeling guilty for having an interest in Michael's private life.

I hope you don't find this post condescending. It's not my intention to tell others what to do. I just want to share my opinion.

The best way to learn about Michael is to read words he wrote himself and words he said himself than anecdote written by others. Dancing the Dreams is the best Michael Jackson book out there. Hearing his interviews and even court depositions is way more fascinating and satisfying. One doesn't need a third person to give insight of Michael's character for the best insight one can get is Michael's own words.

Being fans of Michael, we all have urge to learn everything about him. But, we forget we are feeding the leeches in our quest of learning all the details about him. That's why I'm very cautious when searching news about Michael. I don't click to TMZ or other tabloid site, even though those sites are the only sources. I'd rather not getting the news.

Most of us here who do not support the Frank Cascio book are not irrational. Bruce Swedien has a book called "In the Studio with Michael Jackson", nobody complains about that book because the nature of Bruce's book is not "tell-all." Bruce gave detailed explanation on his sound mixing and recording experience with Michael. It's too technical for me to read; nevertheless, an informative piece of writing. The book is totally professionally done.

If Teddy Riley is to write a book similiar in nature of Bruce Swedien's book, without unnecessary juicy stuff, without unnecessary marketing tricks. I welcome the book with open arms.

I respect your opinion. I agree with you different people have different perception on what constitutes invasion of privacy.

Of course there is no harm in reading uplifting stories about Michael, so no one is voicing disapproval about fans' urge to learn Michael. The concern fans have expressed here is that we are encouraging more tell-all books and/or tabloid style publishing if we keep buying them.

On a side note, your statement about Frank Cascio "being a long-time friend who is not proven to have done anything wrong" is not completely accurate. So far, there is no proof or evidence being offered. So, nothing has been proven.

Get your facts right.*

Fans knew that Bob Jones was talking shit before Michael was acquitted. They knew that because he'd been sacked on his ass and writing a bullshit book about his former boss was his pension plan. Everyone on the planet would have seen that. So Michael's acquittal had nothing to do with his book being bullshit. It was bullshit because any member of staff who honestly saw that would have reported *it to the police, as opposed to selling the story in a book.

The Cascios are, to most of us, a bunch of charlatans. And, to most of us, this is the next step in a long line of profiteering by association. You might want to applaud that, most fans don't.*

There's only one hypocrite here. And that's the person that supports these charalatans while doubting the vocals on those tracks.*

Yes, we are encouraging more positive books about Michael like these if we keep buying them. If the fans boycotted this book en masse it would only confirm the industry's belief that "the public is not interested in pro-Michael books" and we are left with shelves full of slanderous books about Michael. And books stick around for a long time. Imagine if a kid in 20 years is curious about Michael and goes to the library, and all he finds is hate books? We need positive reflections of Michael to balance all the crap that is written about him. That is part of the reason why I welcome this book.

Click to expand...

Isn't that what I said? So far, there is no evidence of any wrongdoing on the Cascio's part being offered. Therefore they are (or should be) presumed to be innocent. One is innocent until proven guilty, remember? If so many people are convinced that these songs are fake, why isn't anyone suing for fraud? Afaik consumers have a right to do this. Until then, I will refrain from judging the Cascios.

P.S. I don't want to turn this into a debate about the songs (we have enough threads for that) so let's leave it at that.

I think I will enjoy reading this book. I bought some books off of Amazon after Michael left us that were wriiten by fans who loved Michael and wanted to share their experiences with Michael and I loved the stories they had to tell!

I believe the Cascios truly loved Michael. Not everybody has ulterior motives. It is a sad world we live in where we think so many people can't be trusted.

That is why I miss Michael so much. He was my Pollyanna who saw the best in everybody and thought we all had the ability to become our best.

Be good everybody Love,Susan

Re: Frank Cascio to write memoir of his friend Michael Jackson / official press release at pg12

Has there been any other celebrity who's life is scrutinised by everyone? Michael had no right in the eyes of the media to a private life and I'm sick of all these people jumping on the bandwagon and writing books. I dont care if its positive or whatever, I've had enough of people using his name to make money. Treated like shit in life and treated like shit in death. Always being used to make people money, it makes me sick.
