Be honest... cause I'm going to be.

I never believed those rumors, to be honest. But I thought he was ugly, now I realize he was just different.

Before, I used to think he sounded like a girl and thought he was *sigh* I hate to use this word...ugly. but then later in the years, I began to love him and and his music. what the news said, (about him being a child molester) I knew that was all a lie. I didnt believe those rumors at all.

I've never believed in those rumors as AimieDawn said. Seriously. My mum taught me not to believe in everything I read in magazines, or see on TV or anything. Because I didn't have any proof. But after I saw him carrying Blanket outside the window, I just...I just thought he was 'creepy'. Now I regret about that.

when i was 3 4 or 5 we listened to abc in dance class. and if i remeber i said "is this michael jackson, i hate him" but like i said i was little. but i liked him i just said that. then a month after he died i got internet and started listening to him and now hes my fav singer

All I remember was when I was about 6 asking my mum if she'd like to go to his birthday party (i'm not even sure why I asked her that). Then the first time I actually saw him was when he said that thing about the This Is It concerts, I was getting ready for school and it was on the TV and all I remember thinking was 'Wow, thats's a lot of people' when it showed all the people waiting to buy tickets to go.
I don't think you should all be ashamed of what you thought of him at first, if your young, and your parents dont listen to his music, then its not your fault you never got introduced to his music. Lots of fans go on about how they hate the fans who started liking him later than they did and I don't get it, it's like they don't like to see other people showing love and respect towards Michael, I have nothing against any of them, I would actually love to spend the day with another Michael Jackson fan my age, because my friends don't like him much and do make jokes about him that i hate, i would love to spend all day talking about him, I think it would be great!
Sorry about the essay :)
L-O-V-E!

well i remember seeing him on the news during the trial and i was just like what did he do cause im tired of seeing him on the news.lol...but i really didnt think much of him..i just thought he was another singer with issues..and i hate that i did this but i went along with what the kids were saying back then about him and not even caring..but i, just like so many people out there, didnt understand him.

My parents did all they could to try and prevent me from knowing who Michael was, and i HATED that. Cos, the more they did that, the more intrigued i was by him. So I fell in love with him, and my Mum thought i was weird because i think he is hot. My friends say, he isnt that hot... but in my eyes, he is stunning! I find it so hard to think he could be ugly! Soon after, i heard about his amazing personality and the charities he donated too. That made me head over heels about him. I am addicted :)

I sow him for the first time in 1991-1992.. I don't remember exactly the year. It was the video Dirty Diana.. and I just fell in love completly with him!! I felt he's different, never heared before such a voice, never seen before so perfect moves.. he was so natural in everything he did!!
I remember that it was on MTV lol :)) and I asked my sister.. "who's this guy?" and she told me: "Michael Jackson"..
I loved him always.. no matter what people were saying about him; I always felt like he's a part of me..
