The world is healing.
People are finally discovering a simple fact: Michael Jackson was and always will be INNOCENT.

American pop culture fascinated the world.
It cut through the lies and showed who we were from the streets, the towns, the working class, and they loved us.
American empire needed enemies, and so destroyed its pop culture.
Being 74, I'm glad I chose to be on the right side of history.
I'm glad I met Michael and all my other mentors.

In 2008, Michael was planning to build a house next to Elizabeth Taylor’s just so he could take care of her. This hurts knowing how it would turn out the following year💔

Had a wonderful convo with the Critics Choice Team yesterday regarding the #michaelmovie and I’m very excited to announce that @deckedoutmag will be covering the Critics Choice Celebration of Black Cinema & Television, where Jaafar Jackson is being honored 🙏🏽

This behavior is from an @CriticsChoice member and film critic. Seems obsessive and definitely not objective. You are not supposed to bring your personal beliefs and biases into a film review. You are supposed to evaluate the movie and only the movie.

Today’d be Molly’s 18th birthday. Although she passed in 2021, her impact grows. Thank you for keeping her spirit alive. Please support our Youth Board - 19 teens who lead community service projects in honor of Molly. Whether $18 or $180, it all matters. You can make a tax-deductible donation on our website or Venmo at Kaye-Steinsapir. We’re $15k short of our goal to make our work possible for the upcoming year, which I’d love to raise today. Love never dies. The Molly Steinsapir Foundation is love in action. #TEAMMOLLY

Wait what? Weren’t most negative critics complaining that “MICHAEL” didn’t follow Biopic rules and structure and felt more like a Musical than a Biopic.
“Too many songs and performances “
Guess those goalposts are changing again.
The Golden Globes have denied for ‘MICHAEL’ to be submitted for Best Musical/Comedy categories.
It will be submitted for Best Drama instead.
