oh. sorry. anyway...this is not me just talking to u, so so..i'm just putting this out there for everyone to see, cus i don't feel like double posting. since this is the speculation section, i'm just gunna put this out there, since Moddie 777, said MJ didn't look too happy with his circumstances, but rather vulnerable around his team..
MJ said, in 2001 in phm, that he did NOT want to tour. now i know that people want to say that he changed his mind for his kids...but i'm going to speculate that MJ went into parent mode. that he didn't really want to tour at all, but may have been willing to do it for his kids. but, still, he didn't really want to go through the rigors of something that clearly made him uncomfortable at that time in his life, and that's why he bought that catalogue, so lady gaga and many other artists could pay his family's bills, instead of him doing it(which, of course, he earned, at that point, in his life.) maybe he gave his kids a private performance, and they know what it's like. maybe there were people in attendance and they went off like any fans, and the kids witnessed it. so, maybe the kids were satisfied, but that didn't stop the AEGs of the world from begging him to tour, anyway. overwhelming pressure toward him mounting to tour cus the magic of his success never ceases.
