Micheal Jackson's Blood brother
You probably saw this book in the list that I made a couple of posts ago. This book was really interesting because this is a man who says that he grew up with Michael in Gary. He was a playmate. He talked about a lot of stuff about Michael's first crush, which is really cute but funny. He actually claims to have taught the Jacksons to do the "goose neck" or whatever(the dance that the Jacksons did when they performed at the Motown 25 show, where they are lined up and moving their necks). I don't know about that. He has a few stories in their about the performances they did and how often, how afraid of Joe they were, and more. I think the book was good but doesn't reveal anything juicy so don't expected anything big.
Unmasked
The book Michael Jackson: Unmasked was a book that I thought, in my opinion was good and bad. What I liked about the book was that the author talked about was that he did claim that Michael was innocent when it came to the allegations. He also had proof that Michael was innocent. He actually did some really good research on this. What I didn't like was he claimed that Michael was gay. He didn't have really good proof that this was true. I have read some other stories in another forum that Michael was DEFINITELY NOT GAY. I'll talk about that forum and what I read in my other blog:

I just think that he should have done more research about this before making this book. This book came out too soon. It was like the book came out a few days after Michael died. He must have wanted this book out in a hurry.

Michael Jackson Tapes book
When I read the book, "The Michael Jackson Tapes", I really liked the book because it gave a little insight about Michael and what he though about certain things. The book was basically an interview/conversation between the Rabbi and Michael Jackson. They talked about everything from women, his family, his celebrity relationships and friends. It was really interesting to read. It was kind of like being in room and being part of the conversation. Now, the only thing that I didn't like was the fact that these were private tapes between the two of them and the rabbi released them to the public. If he was a true friend to Michael, he would have keep them secret. Everyone has a price and I guess he got that. I don't know if Michael wanted them to go public or not, but knowing how private Michael was in life, I'm pretty sure he didn't. Some friend he was.

The Bodyguards Interview
I just thought that I would post them. It doesn't hurt to watch them again. I really like that even after Michael's death, the bodyguards seem to still be very respectful of Michael and they put him in a good light. They seem like loyal employees and friends to Michael. I just wish that Michael had more people like that working for him and not people that were such backstabbers.
There will never be another!
I found this article about Michael that talked about how there will never be fame like Michael's fame. I believe this because there is no star that can ever be at the level that Michael was. Here is the link to the article:
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/28/weekinreview/28segal.html?_r=1&ref=michael_jackson
I remember reading somewhere that Usher said that he was the "next Michael Jackson"! What!? I don't care about the fact that Usher can dance like Michael, and don't get me wrong; he is a good dancer. But, I'm saying, and no offense, he will never be where Michael is. Michael did more for people than just entertain, he helped many people and donated so much money to different charities. People all over the world loved Michael, Including me. I know that all of the fans will love him for many years from now.
I don't want usher fans getting mad at me for saying that. I like Usher and have nothing against him, just spreading my opinion.

new book by MJ's bodyguards
I just wanted to say that I'm just waiting for the book "In Defense of the king" by Michael Jackson's bodyguards. Now, you already know that this book will be good because of all the information that they will reveal about Michael. I think that there are so many fans that are going to grab this book up as soon as it hits the shelves. I know I am. I remember watching the interview that they did where they were talking about Michael and things that they witnesses. I'm just glad that they didn't have anything bad to say about him because it just seems like the people who were the closest to Michael when he was alive had something bad to say about him. These three guys are really gonna do Michael justice. All of these people who claim to have been Michael's "friends" in his life and write these books about him. They all have bad and weird allegations to make against Michael. The bodyguards seem to be very loyal to Michael, which is why I think that this book is worth buying and can't wait to see what they have to say about Michael.

This is a book I didn't like!
This book called "Michael Jackson: The Man Behind The Mask" By Bob Jones. First of all, have any of the fans read it? I think that this guy knew Michael ever since he was with the Jackson Five. I think that he is one of many people trying to get rich off of writing a "tell-all" book. I don't know why he would right a book like this. He claims to be a friend of Michael's, but he basically is shining a bad "spotlight" on Michael. He makes so many claims about Michael that it just makes you wonder if he is telling the truth. If you haven't read it, I'm not gonna say too much but one thing that did bother me was that he claims that "Michael hated black people and couldn't stand being black"! I just want to know where he got his facts from. I hope Michael never read this in his life. I just hope that Michael can Rest In Peace now and never have to worry about another rumor.

Book I recently read about Michael Jackson
I recently brought a book called "Remember The Time: A True Intimate Look At Michael Jackson Through Letters to Michael" By Theresa J. Gonsalves. She was a fan of Michael's back in the 70s, and probably before than. She wrote many letters to Michael and finally got to meet him. Over the years they became friends. One thing about these letters in this book is that it seems that they were written around the time that Michael died. They seem to be her looking back on the days that she got to spend with him. I kind of thought that these letters were actual letters that she wrote to him and that he wrote back.
One thing that caught my eye was that she talked about how they made love twice. I don't want to get graphic about it. But, if you read this book, there are so many things that she talks about that there is no way she can be lying. When she talks about meeting Michael for the first time, hanging out with him and many other things. In my opinion, it is a really good book. I think that in a way, this was her dealing with Michael's death, like all of the world was. There are some really cute moments in this book that I think that Michael Jackson's fans will like.
