Who's bad-Michael Jackson: Did he need to die? Preview of HL Special, Collectors Edition by Aida Poulsen
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
We started to write a piece on the medical issues of the wrongful death trial with AEG Live sued by Michael Jackson’s family (which was concluded when the issue went on press), when we found the trial too insignificant, as the entire life of the superstar is an impactful health, physical and psychical subject. As intense as his dance, Michael Jackson’s life was burned on both ends at a rhythm of his anti-gang violence hit “Beat It” by himself and by the media frenzy.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Four years after shaking the world with his last move—a spectacular (as cynical as it sounds) death, both the press and us, its docile hordes, seem to have begun admitting a scent of doubt. The Niagara waterfall of ridicule and dirt, under which the music genius spent his brief presence with us, finally thinning, reveals the truth universally acknowledged: to make us believe in him, he needed to die. He will not triumph at our expense over the fact that his art will survive us all, which is not a surmise anymore, as his artistic inheritance proved there is arguably no other in modern art of the same consequence, volume and height of humanitarian essence.
Vulnerability, exalted sensitivity of human nature, naivety, agitation, feebleness, pain, hope, despair and search of strength to bear it all became his artistic abode after the unseen scale of popularity, unforgiving of childlike spontaneity and unconsciousness of the media’s predatory nature, had imprisoned a 24 year old Michael Jackson to an unprecedented atrocity of media bullying and public disdain, deadly glued to the former, for the rest of his life.

Who's Bad
Michael Jackson: Did he need to die? Preview 2 of HL Special, Collectors Edition
Michael Jackson. Did he need to die? Who's bad
by Aida Poulsen
... Why is it only now, watching again Barbara Walters’ interview, it is not Michael Jackson but the host who looks unreasonable in emphatically formal attire—gray suit, short haircut, seemingly intended to underscore her subject’s perverseness—when she asks, rather asserts, isn’t it his “extreme” appearance that provokes press ridicule? Does she want him to dress like her, behave like her, think like her? Gray suit, short haircut? Whom she would be interviewing then, and for such a rating? Herself?
Lady Gaga, a talented and promising performer, seems to be adopting the “technic” of attracting media, only with a safety belt: she would appear before press and on stage, well, everybody knows in what, do her thing, and go back to normal, being very practical, calculating and cautious about where, how and what to say, do and wear, admirably, cold mindedly and skillfully managing her career— the very thing Michael Jackson would have found unthinkable—to be a pretender on stage, or vice versa.
Michael Jackson was the embodiment of his art; this was the very thing that gave him his immense power and the unwillingness to be dishonest offstage is probably what had killed him. It is unlikely now if he were looking back at the pain he went through and had a chance to live his life again that he would submit to what was the public’s demand and his abhorrence. He was eccentric on stage and in life, and if he had been a Gray Suit in life, he would have been a Gray Suit on stage. Above all, he believed that there is nothing to conceal because of his harmless nature and such, rather rare, characters usually tend to believe in symmetrical response, no matter how many injuries the more common result produces. Because believing otherwise would have ruined him...

“When your life is in front of 100 million people since the age of 5 you are automatically different.” And different he was. But people around him weren’t.

Personal note: I will look for this magazine and purchase it (if it does as they say have the cover featuring Michael). Far too seldom do we find a collector's edition of a magazine these days with MJ featured in a true light.

Use the store locator guys ~ Then call them and have them check for it and hold a copy for you.

November MJ issue sold out on the HL site. Everyone needs to find it in their stores now. Will tweet the editor to see if they are planning another print.

People are not appreciating this Part 2. Their FB page has opposition to it and the author.

Oh boy-this next excerpt from HL is certainly not like the 1st one! It doesn't even read like the same person wrote it. I wonder what the heck she was even thinking? Not smart imo. She had so many MJ fans buying that issue in November that she even wrote that they were thinking of doing an International distribution. They won't have that problem now. They will be lucky to sell any to a MJ advocate/fan now. Too bad. We all had high hopes with this group.

That is a ridiculous price for that. Plus there is only 1 copy so it looks like someone bought it-read it and now is asking 3 times what they paid for it. You should go to their website and see if you can order a NEW copy for the 5.99 they asked for it. You also have to pay $4 shipping on that Amazon used copy. Not worth it kiddo. get a MJ book for your collection that adds to it rather than buy someone else's used copy of a HL mag (my opinion)
