MJ Wasnt Healthy

This was very interesting indeed--and they were all in agreement and besides it makes perfect sense. No matter what we may think of KF--I think she spoke truth here.

I feel that too!! But what makes me a little sad, is that she posted on her facebook, that everything was great and London was gonna be amazing (>>not exactly these words, ok?

I think they should have thought "hey wait a minute! if Michael Jackson is not coming to rehearsals, something is wrong! what is wrong? how can we help? we can't push him if he is not feeling good.

But here's the thing, according to Chris Grant, Michael couldn't just come to rehearsals every single day. He was in charge of every aspect of the TII production, so he had plenty of other things to do. He couldn't just be at rehearsals all the time.

And one of his bodyguards said he loved watching Michael rehearse at the house. So Michael was probably rehearsing at his home at times.

I don't know where all this specualtion came from that something was wrong just because Michael was doing other things for TII, or rehearsing at his home.

Honestly, I dont know if Michael was healthy or not.

The autopsy states he was healthy. Maybe we should rename this thread "arguing against the autopsy" because that is exactly what some are doing.

According to this article, MJ was lazy - according to Pearl Jr in one of her vids, I think - she said he was not going to rehearsals. And Phillips seems to be saying they needed more dates because of the high costs:

Gig shambles: Lazy Jackson’s 2-week effort

05/07/2009
JACKSON was LAZY and only put in a few hours of rehearsals for his comeback shows, says the concerts' promoter.

AEG boss Randy Philiips said ***** ducked out of more than two and a half months of preparation for the 02 shows and only put in any effort in the last two weeks before his death.
Speaking exclusively to the News of the World, Phillips said: "The public have to understand - Michael wasn't the hardest worker in the world.
"A lot of the rehearsals had been for the dancers, musicians and backing singers, he wasn't actually participating."
But Phillips said the final rehearsal before the star died of a cardiac arrest was "magnificent".

He told how the star - who at first had doubts about the 50-long run of shows - said afterwards: "I now know I can do this."
The AEG boss also denied his firm pushed Michael into committing to the 50 shows. He said: "The original deal was 30 shows. We started with 10 - putting 30 is a disincentive for people to buy early."
But he said the unprecedented demand - and the spiralling £15millin costs of the extravagant production - meant they would need more dates. He said: "Michael did everything bigger and better than everyone else."

News of the world = B.S.

What Phillips said can't be true and if he did say it, it's blasphemy - Mike not a hard worker??? Please!
I'm sure there were things going on in Mike's life he was stressing about, hence the weight loss but AEG want to make it look like they are not to blame for anything.

Exactly, even the dancers say Michael attended early rehearsals. If Michael only attended the final two weeks of rehearsal, then how long were they at the forum for before they finally moved to the Staples Center?

^^^Those pictures aren't fair and everyone knows it! Here is a real comparsion since that's whats been going on since MJ's passing.

i don't think there is connection between was Michael healthy and 50 showes. If they had only 10 shows they had to prepare same way as for 510 shows - so really no matter!!

another thing is that healthy or not -- this show could NOT start 2 weeks later!!!! they were NOT ready in eny meaning! Even if Michael slept there on the stage still they can NOT prepare all costumes, all videos for the screan, all other technical parts. So it's not because of Michael. they were far far from ready!!!! believe me or not - 2 months are impossible timeline for such HUGE show.

lol...and thats why he's so dang sucessful and has accomplished so much. cause he's lazy.

Michael was healthy. I honestly think the discussion of whether he was healthy or not should just end.

Now, whether or not this healthy fifty year old man was able to do 50 shows, with two or three a week for several months. That's debateable.

When did Michael ever have an eye problem? Besides natural decreasing vision.

And IF this is true, then WHO would know Michael was going to go blind and die in the next six months?? and die because of a drug overdose? (on the doctor's part)

how would ian gain all this private medical knowledge about michael if it were true? But they also said Michael had a rare lung disease. I haven't heard about that yet, or maybe I missed it?

Interesting connection, not sure of the date of the picture:

From TSCM:

News of Frank writing a tell-all book made its rounds in published media in the early 2000s, and what was written about it did not sound good then.

I did not like the mess that Frank created with Allgood Entertainment regarding the "Jackson Reunion Concert" that Michael wasn't even aware of in the final weeks of his life (but what he still got sued for)...

And then there's this.
