How long before he's the 3rd Jackson to be on Big Brother.

I care as I am always for the quality of the 'product' rather than the inevitable baggage that follows in being so successful.

I have no interest at all whether he is straight or gay, white or black, 25 or 50, rich or poor, surgically enhanced or otherwise. As long as he can still sing and perform as he did when I grew up listening to his music as a kid, that's what matters.

I was fortunate to be able to see Jackson perform at Wembley during his Dangerous tour, heights he never reached again. I have big doubts tho as to whether he has enough left in him to perform consistently at a high level, particularly live.

So you think that being successful goes hand in hand with the kind of baggage Jackson has gathered up for himself over the years?

I can think of many more successful bands / singers than Jackson, none of which you could say come with baggage.

I don't think being successful inevitably leads to all artists carrying baggage. In Jackon's case it was inevitable, as it began whilst he was part of the Jackson 5.

What I'm (trying!) to say is I have no interest in the crap that follows an artist. I enjoy music video's, but if they didn't exist it wouldn't bother me, as I'd rather hear the actual music. I love football but I don't obsess over the players etc.

I wasn't sure if I should make my original post as I suspected it would lead to question. I'm just saying I have enjoyed his music over the past 40 or so years and if he still has enough quality to carry that on, that's ok for me.

regardless whether you or I think he was guilty, he was found innocent in the eyes of the law.
