Dia de los Muertos 7 Posted March 5, 2009 Supposedly he'll face the press tomorrow and announce a summer residency at the O2 Arena, playing at least as many concerts as Prince did. It looks like the gloved one will be playing 10 gigs at the O2 arena. And of course, they will sell out. ***sigh*** why do people encourage him? I wish he would just go away, a thought shared with a handful of children, no doubt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thefunkyfaz 51 Posted March 9, 2009 He did stress that this will be it, the last time he performs in the UK, ever, his farewell concerts, etc etc. Could this be a hint that all is indeed not well with his health, as has been speculated? Or will we be subjected to him coming out of retirement at 70 a la Tina Turner and doing it all again? Anyway, he loves his fans. So much. He really does. Especially the young.... ok I'll stop there.

Wtf is going on with that nose? Does he honestly feel better now that is holds no flesh?? I blame Charlie. What is worse is that he has never fully been able to alter his eyes which remain Afro.

What do you mean alter? He hasn't altered anything. It's a skin-whitening disease, not plastic surgery. He said so to Martin Bashir. So there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,684 Posted May 16, 2009 Jacko has cancer!!!! Deadpoolers have collective orgasm. Or summat. Either that, or the tabloids have blown up a few unimportant skin cancer cells to a massive story ahead of his gigs next month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BCAlum2000 42 Posted May 16, 2009 Jacko has cancer!!!! Deadpoolers have collective orgasm. Or summat. Either that, or the tabloids have blown up a few unimportant skin cancer cells to a massive story ahead of his gigs next month. Nah. Jacko ain't dying and he won't be dying anytime soon. At least the tabloids weren't trying to tease us this time. The tabloids always have a habit of making a person's illness seem worst than it is. or rather, they have a tendency of overhyping a celebrity's imminent demise within days when it turns out to be far from true (e.g., Patrick Swayze, Farrah Fawcett, Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Jackson, Sir Richard Attenborough, Ed McMahon, Kelsey Grammar, Robin Williams, etc.).

maryportfuncity 10,684 Posted May 17, 2009 I think you can leave Farrah Fawcett off that list. A few weeks at most by the look of things. Doubtless they'll show that documentary, projectile vomit and all, over here soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BCAlum2000 42 Posted May 18, 2009 I think you can leave Farrah Fawcett off that list. A few weeks at most by the look of things. Doubtless they'll show that documentary, projectile vomit and all, over here soon. The Farrah Fawcett documentary special on her battle with cancer has drawn major ratings. BTW, I should probably add Stephen Hawking to the list of celebrities the media has hyped up as "about to die soon" when it turns out they are okay. The media has a habit of teasing us like that. Jerry Lewis recently collapsed and already the media is trying to hype this up like "OMG! Jerry Lewis is gravely ill and he'll die in a matter of days!"

There's no doubt that tabloids over hype celebrity illnesses, indeed, their whole raison d'etre is hype, but if you don't think that Farrah Fawcett and Patrick Swayze are very good candidates to die soon, I think you are very much mistaken.

Monoclinic 39 Posted June 25, 2009 Sky are reporting he wasn't breathing and his father has said he's "not doing well" Well I suppose that's one way of getting out of those looming concerts. I expect BC Alum thinks it's his time to go as he's had a bit of a cashflow problem lately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
