Michael Jackson was not a “no-talent” but rather a great performer with unlimited gifts, which was unfortunately partially wasted.
In his early days through savvy marketing, recognition of trends such as producing music videos, that went far beyond concert performances. The eccentric personality, hit the world of pop music exactly at the right moment in history.
Then, in the other hand he turned himself into the biggest King of Freak lifestyle of all times, joined by 3 innocent children.
The comparison with Elvis Presley is factual.
Presley was also a performer with unlimited ability, a great showman, and hit America exactly at the right time in history as well.
His shockingly unique style, particular moves on stage, brought unusual success. No other dared to do it.
His fans went nuts when he grinded and Jackson’s fans responded equally infatuated as he grabbed his crotch on stage.
I say this not out of spite, because I genuinely enjoyed Thriller, Beat it, BAD, the moves and everything else that he did, aside from Never Land, and all the other strangeness that followed.
I wonder if in 100 years, historians will be amazed at the popularity of people like Jackson? Hopefully by then, we will have outgrown our compulsion to place these people on a mountaintop and worship their every move. Perhaps, it is the nature of pop music and Show Business.
Peaceful be his next journey.

Michael Jackson Reportedly Will Be Buried in Muslim Traditions

http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/00025411.html

Michael Jackson’s family reportedly is considering to have a traditional Muslim burial for the late music performer.
—————————————————————-

A source close to the Jacksons has exclusively revealed to X17 Online that family will likely have a traditional Muslim burial for late Michael Jackson. “The family is considering following the Muslim burial traditions because they believe Michael would have wanted to be laid to rest in keeping with his new-found religious beliefs,” says the source.

“Michael’s brother Jermaine is educating the family as to the special rites because he feels it’s important to bury his brother according to the Muslim way,” adds the source. Despite earlier reports that both public and private memorial services for the late music performer have been set to be held this week, there has been no official confirmation just yet from Michael’s family on the location where his body will be laid to rest.

Michael Jackson was reported converting to Islam in late 2008, years after expressing his interest to join the faith. He later on changed his name into “Mikaeel”, which was meant as a reference to the name of one of Allah’s angels.

In Muslim burial, per X17 Online, someone’s body “has to be cleaned, but ideally not embalmed, and wrapped in a white sheet, and it must be buried facing Mecca. The Koran also dictates that the body be buried as close to the place of death and as soon after death as possible. There should be no tombstone near the grave.”
