Michael Jackson's Death: Fact of Fiction

Michael Jackson’s Death: Fact of Fiction

Posted on 18 July 2010.

It’s amazing how the African-American culture suddenly re-connected with fallen soldier, Michael Jackson, right after his death. Prior to this major event, it appeared as though there was a significant disconnect between Michael and his African-American fans. The new experience of depression and continued bereavement are both shocking and a surprise to me as a mental health professional. Let’s just review a couple of interesting considerations.

Did Micheal have recurrent allegations for participation in inappropriate behaviors with children?
Didn’t Michael have an instance where he hung his baby upside down out of a window?
Didn’t Michael’s visual image go from being a black male to… ?
Is it possible for a Black male, by birth and genotype, to produce 3 kids that look basically White?
Have all of the allegations of inappropriate drug use suddenly disappeared?
Did he not have the drug propofol and oxygen tanks in his home at his time of death?
Did Michael have a serious problem with Substance Abuse and Dependence?

This does not take from his musical legacy at all, but as a mental health professional, we should closely monitor who we attempt to make a martyr. After all, Michael was truly loved by many of us but, there were significant changes over the past twenty years that turned most of us off. He certainly deserves to be given credit where credit is due. However, we still have to be careful not to cover-up or endorse bad behaviors. Moreover, he had the money and clout to get him out of some pretty tight situations. I don’t want to reign on this national day of mourning, I simply want to keep it real. Michael Jackson’s death is a fact and there were numerous factors that we should not forget. He left a very strong legacy and the world will never forget him, but we still have to monitor who we make GODS.

OK he didnt hang his baby upside down, her just hung him over a railing.

I agree that this person should not be made some kind of saint. He definitely had some serious emotional/mental problems and more than anything, I had empathy for him. Because with all his money, the only thing he was able to do was mask his pain and major insecurity. Truely a sad life in anyone’s book. I do however appreciate all the money he raised and gave to the needy.

He was an entertainer not a healer of some sort. We as a society have lost our way as to who we look up to and priase, sad for us. I think if someone could ask him now….would you come back to life if you could? He would say no because now he has finally found peace.

  @JadedintheOC. You are so correct there can be both healing and peace in death! Thanks for the comment.
JM Brodie

It was once said that MJ would only be appreciated in death because his life was so complex. In my opinion, the community did not give up on him. In many ways we understood that dealing with issues of race can take on many forms — Mike’s being an extreme.

As for the charges and the behavior questions, again, complicated. Neither of us really knows what went on. I have questions that will never be answered.

Mikchael Jackson is not a god. He was a flawed and troubled man with a great talent/gift. He touched lives — something few of us get to do. He was the Truman Show for those who grew up with him. Living his life took a toll none of us would trade for.

I would think someone in your field would get that sooner than most.

  @JMBrodie, You are correct and I do understand somewhat his tragic life, but just look at America. We have just about made him a GOD!
ELA

Dear Sir,
Most rational people are not making Michael out to be a God. But you are in fact contributing to the very culture that killed him. Those child abuse cases were found to be extortion. Why would you mention them? As for his appearance, that was his business. You sir are one of the black people that abandoned MJ. Yes he had problems, who doesn’t. but what did he do to you? Nothing. Except maybe help you or your bretheren through school with his generosity. But here you are just as the leeches who contributed to his death, trying to profit and promote yourself on the day of the death of a man that you obviously did not respect enough to properly research your “considerations”. He did NOT hang that baby upside down!
Further more, being considered a martyr does not mean you have to be perfect. Being a martyr means suffering a great loss for a principle.
This is something that you may have a great deal of trouble understanding because it is clearly shown by your shameless self promotion on this day as opposed to yesterday, or last week that you lack principle.

  @ELA Thank you sir for your kind words.

Yes, we have made him a God and that’s what happens when ppl die , everyone likes you, adores you, respects you and misses you which was not the case when you are alive. Today’s society is sick, i find them ignorant, selfish and mentally tortured who derive happiness out of other’s sorrow. This phenomena is making ppl crazier and love is nowhere. As for MJ i feel he was extremely misunderstood and never got the respect he deserved while he was alive ,yes he had issues, addicted to drugs but then again what do you expect from a person who is scrutinized , criticized for his skin color (vitiligo), his music, his love for children, his appearance. I mean it’s his life, because he is a celebrity he should’nt be deprived of the right to live his way. He made huge donations, loved children, what he gave to art is immitated today and would continue to be in yrs to come, despite all,what he got back was molestation charges, stripped search, humiliated and mocked and now that’s he is dead everyone’s a fan of “wacko jakco” isn’t it, that’s what they named him, i call such ppl heartless and curlish. He was not God or God like but a tortured soul , broken man out of his own insecurities and with all the money he made , he owed $500 million for debts when he died. He was an artist above all, who enjoyed living like a king, never stopped giving, loved music, nature and went into exile coz of his so called “eccentricity” , “insanity” mayb, i mean wtf! is there an end to the non stop humiliation? “can i live please?” is that the question he asked everyone?
The name /event / artist / impact Michael Jackson is a perfect example showcasing human nature of an ordinary somebody or nobody, their love can make you God and destroy you to a zero, drug addict, troubled singer, mad man. He was struggling to sleep and at last he is asleep. I believe in God and he loves him without a doubt, without judging. we mortals are incapable of understanding the simplicity of life, our bad.

God bless Michael jackson.

  @rinky nandy. I felt passion in your reponse. He was a great entertainer with recognizable difficulties.
- Sheila Hawkins
  
  Yes I agree. To me I come from a Biblical point of view. I have always adored the Jackson 5 and when I was 6 years old attended a concert in Atlanta, Georga. Michael is a name which means “fallen angel” He was loved by all and will go down in history for his accomplishments. Leave the man alone. It will come back to haunt you. May MJ rest in peace!!!
  - AskDrO
    
    @Sheila Hawkins you picked an old article.LOL
JADB

I definitely agree with you 100%. I have ALWAYS loved Michael. I have never left his side. Even when his public image was tainted he was still an awesome person to me. I do agree that he was not mentally or emotionally stable, but who is?
I am not one of the people that has idolized him in his death or cried. However, I think I’m more of a real fan than most. I love his work. His personal life and problems are none of my business or concern…
- admin
  
  @JADB Great minds think a like. Thanks for your comments.
Bobby

Dr. O, I thank you for this article. Often times we do not really take a look at the people we hold up on pedestals. Yes, Michael made great music and he should be honored for that and that alone. @ELA, its bothersome that you would think that most rational people are not making Michael out to be a GOD. What fairy world do you live in? I guess you had your time at Neverland and enjoyed BoBo. ELA, I would ask you to survey people and come back and tell us what was said. C’mon, cases to be extortion…. what grown man would let little kids sleep in his bed that he did not know. Neverland was not the St. Jude’s Hospital for Cancer. All of those cases were clear cut cases for childhood behavior. Michael had a mind of a 13 year old living in a zoo. I would have it to believe that the Doctor is not making any profit off of posting this article. Did it cost you to post your comment? I didn’t think so….It is ashame however that people who never really listened to Michael are now doing so….yes talented….but most people are sympathizing with the loss as the standings is that Dr. Murphy is responsible for his death…..It’s like if I go to the liquor store and buy 10 bottles of beer or vodka and I get wasted and cause death of myself or others or even both……..who do we blame? Do we blame the liquor store for not having a limit?…………

  @Bobby Thanks for the rebuttal of @ELAs remarks. It is important to be clear in today’s society.
http://askdro.com rinki nandy

hey all, Ela is not wrong. i liked what he said , i support him.@ bobby there was nothing wrong in neverland, yes children went there and stayed with MJ, they shared his bed but that’s love for children, nothing but love. He was not a pedophile period. What’s wrong in hugging them? in spening time with them?, he was just trying to retain / relive / recapture his stolen childhood, those children were his friends, his childhood friends. MJ was a child at heart, peter pan at heart and that’s why he called his place “neverland” he never wanted to grow up. It was not his fault but fate that as a kid he had experienced stuff ppl come across when are adults, he had seen strippers when 9yrs old, was surrounded with adults where ppl backstabbed, ditched any and everyone for own benefit, as a kid he had experinced enough ugliness, pain, denial, vulgarity wih adults around and it was only natural for him to despise the adults given the highly principled man that he was. He wanted to be around kids coz they were pure, innocent and b’ful, in other words ppl (children) who were like him and loved him without questioning/judging him. When ppl comment that “time had stopped for him” i would say he made it stop coz he wished that, to be surrounded by purity and innocence. He was a wonderful man with an unusual life in extraordinary circumstances and there is not and will never be another like him. why can’t everyone simply understand that? is it difficult to accept that there existed a b’ful, generous, lovely human being among us mad , envious, annoying bunch of human beings.

  @Rinki Nandy, I respect your opinion but I adamatelly disagree with a grown man sleeping with children that he did not father. Some of MJ behaviors, in my clinical opinion, where very inappropriate and certainly lead him into some legal troubles.
Jose Lopez

I must echo ELA in saying to Dr. O thank you for this article.We are a society of people looking for someone or something to believe in during times of stress, that help relieve our pain.Example superman during WW2 and the list goes of fictional characters created during times of distress.This is what the death of Michael has become.Like Elvis death in the 70′s with all of his issues we don’t really take a look at the people we hold up on pedestals. We must all admit that Michael made great music and he should be honored for that and that alone. But how many other fallen stars were just as talented but were never given this same respect.
- admin
  
  @Jose thank you for processing the Blog Post appropriately. Your comments are well received. Thanks
http://askdro.com rinki nandy

“clinical opinion” i understand where you coming from , but do you understand where he came from?
you certainly don’t! and that has you trying to prove an artistic person scientifically which will only create controversies, confusion and misunderstanding coz science is black or white, either proved or not proved, on the contrary art is beautiful, heartful, undefined, unltd, fathomless, boundless, complicated, huge and vast, listless, invinicible, imaginative etc etc. as i mentioned earlier “i understand where you coming from” implying i will have no further entries here. it was good blogging.take care.
- admin
  
  @Rinki Nandy, thanks for expertise in the area of art!
DeeDee

Now, I really did try to just let this be the day I keep silent on MJ. However, there are some things said here that I am compelled to address.

1. JadedintheOC – Are you serious?! “just hung him over a railing”!!! Does the angle of a child’s suspended body in the air really matter? I only pray this was a feeble attempt at sarcasm.

2. JM Brodie – Why do you feel that “few of us” get to touch lives? EVERY day that you are allowed to wake up is an opportunity to touch a life. You don’t have to be rich, eccentric or even MJ-talented to touch a life, but you DO have to want to make a difference and be willing to surrender a bit of selfishness.

3. ELA – Again! Who cares if the infant was right side up or not? The notion of a parent hanging their child in ANY manner is indicative of someone with a clear mental health problem regardless of how many awards sit on a shelf. IF “being a martyr means suffering a great loss for a principle”, then PLEASE tell me what MJ’s principle was…as for his loss, it WAS self-inflicted.

4. Congratulations to Rinki Nandy for signing off. NOthing stated made much sense and most of it is contradictory. It’s one thing to defend MJ in some of his choices, but adults who sleep with children are shameless law-breakers. Those who defend such behavior are accessories to the crime.

5. NEVERland was the perfect name for the zoo-home. It was a land that NEVER should have been constructed, NEVER should have entertained innocent children, and NEVER should have been marketed as anything good.

6. For the record I am and will remain an ardent admirer and appreciator of MJ’s musical genious. However, the man had issues and whether they were the result of some deep dark childhood secret or the fulfillment of his personal choices: HE WAS NO GOD! And neither is any one of us.
- admin
  
  @DeeDee ENOUGH SAID!
http://askdro.com rinki nandy

@ DeeDee i think you didn’t read it properly , you needed to be attentive no one said MJ is GOD or GOdlike,. your blog made all the sense though, you are an expert in expressing hatred coz you love to judge ppl, live in the dark, the world around you must be dirtier than you. your words “but adults who sleep with children are shameless law-breakers. Those who defend such behavior are accessories to the crime” shows just how much dirt is in that sensitive mind or yours. Are you the ghost of jealousy? ppl like you are one of the reasons which killed MJ, congratulations to you, for clarifying (dirtying) our minds with your dirty thoughts. those who feel this way are the impurities of society, destroyers of love and faith, humanity “sharing a bed with children doesn’t have to mean “molesting / lusting children”. get a life, think in a different way, though you may have trouble doing so.
- admin
  
  @rinki nanady I just have one question, “When is sleeping with children, that have absolutely no blood relation to you, appropriate for a man with a history of allegations for improper behavior.” That is just the real essence of the argument I think that you a participating in with @Dee Dee and myself. I was so disturbed by your response until I could not sleep. Your remarks are very revealing. However, you are helping validate the original point of the post. Have we made MJ a God?
DeeDee

The 3:26 p.m. entry of rinki nandy states “Yes, we have made him a God”. There is nothing to read improperly in that statement. The truth hurts( it causes the guilty to lash out) and even more when you recognize yourself in the truth. I did not lie by declaring that “I will have no further entries here”. I don’t hate anyone and I don’t sleep with children, neither do I suspend them over railings. It is a fact that drugs killed MJ, not me! It sounds like rinki nandy is experiencing some kind of guilt complex and feels a strong need to take the defensive. While rinki is taking…a good spelling class might be added to the list.
Anthony

I have tried to answer these questions without reading some of the replies. So here goes…
Just listening to his interviews and all and from his family, he missed out on a lot of things that children do. He embraced children. It is society who turns and makes it a negative subject. Society and the media and small minded people took innocent acts and made them about sex. If there was anyone to blame, if it was such a big problem, then why did parents continue to let their children go over for sleep overs. And I for one… if I thought that some one was molesting my child or someone in my family….there is NO amount of money printed that could ever satisfy me. Each time in the 2 court cases it was always settled or came to be about getting this mans money. So are these “parents” pimping their children out hoping to get a settlement?
I try not to judge but we as a people and I can only speak from a black persons perspective ( because I am) but yes we did abandon him. I have heard people make jokes about his appearance, about him being possibly gay etc.
I for one dont think that he was gay.( but thats another subject about perception)!
His appearance is what he had to deal with. We all get our hair cut or fixed or go to the gym to change our look. Or to make ourselves feel better. So are we in the same category?
I dont begin to understand the pressures this man was under and this is how he dealt wit it.
I do wish that he would have gotten professional help to deal with his relationship with his dad and how he felt about certain aspects growing up.
People are also going in on the fact that he is a black man and he has these “white looking ” kids. So what!!!! Those are his kids no matter how they came into this world. Maybe if we took the time to handle our own business and make sure that people in our family or in the community were taken care of instead of sit and debate about where his children came from , that might make a difference in the world.
Mind ya business and get some of your own.(Society)
I dont think that people should make him out to be a God but he did have a purpose for being on this earth. His message was about love and peace and thats what he wanted for everyone.
- admin
  
  @Anthony Pease be advised that the LOVE of money is the root of ALL evil. That is the answer to your question of “why parents continued to let their kids stay overnight with an adult. This has been happening for years in some cultures. Just remember that child prostitution is a worldwide phenomena/crisis.
robyn

Do we throw away someone because they have mental health challenges? Should we not appreciate his talent and the good he did with the financial resources he had? Should we not remember his regard for human beings as was evidenced in many of his interviews? Should we not remember that allegations are just that, and that oftentimes, people have ulterior motives? This is not to suggest the lack of mental health issues, but it’s just to say that Michael was dealing with a whole lot more than the average person may be dealing with, and much of the media despised his success. I think more than anything, he may have suffered from caring too much about what other people thought; a people pleaser perhaps?! But, NO human being should ever be made out to be a GOD! I could go on and on, but I’ll stop here. Afterall, I am no DR. O, and can you tell, I am and always will be an MJ fan!
- admin
  
  @Robin I am not taking anything away from his gifts. I am merely saying we can NOT making anybody a GOD!
Essdie

I agree with @Robyn. Sure, Mike had his problems, but don’t we all? If Dr.O could meet all of us, he would probably get rich trying to figure out each of our issues. Mike chose to be in the public eye and that comes with a price. Nobody is perfect, but that man sure could sing and dance!
- admin
  
  @Essdie and @Robyn That’s the point, we all have vulnerabilities. Once Michael became more public, it was incumbent upon him to CHANGE and modify some of his behaviors. (i.e. sleep with adults)
http://askdro.com rinki nandy

@dee dee why didn’t you type in the entire sentence? “yes we have made him a God” is just the first half and the sentence goes : “we have made him a God and that’s what happens when ppl die , everyone likes you, adores you, respects you and misses you which was not the case when you are alive” meaning : it’s ironic how everyone loves you, cries for you when you are dead and the same ppl hated you, judged you when you were alive!, to make it easier for you : MJ was mocked, his life laughed at and now that he is dead everyone’s loving him, waking up to an idea of love, some are realizing he existed. So, “i recognize myself in the truth” why is that comment? coz i called your mind “dirty”? Yes, i was not suppose to have further entires here, however, your comments notified that your gob needs to be shut, that someone needed to show you the mirror! ” I don’t hate anyone and I don’t sleep with children, neither do I suspend them over railings” first of all “i don’t care if you hate anyone or sleep with children” it’s your life and i don’t think your way, am sure you must know that by now. MJ didn’t suspend him over railings, he held his child tightly with both hands and it was only for few secs for God’s sake! it is the man’s child, he cares for his child more than any of us. It is correct that drugs ultimately killed him and it is also correct that hatred and criticism from ppl such as you led him towards the killer, it is sad how such ppl had that effect on him, then again he wanted to please everyone and maybe that’s why he could become what he was. Am i defensive? o yes i am, how can i answer dee dee? am i feeling guilty complex? you bet i am, how can i call the world around dee dee dirtier? how dare i call you the ghost of jealousy? You have forgotten to point out the words with “spelling mistakes” coz there aren’t any? or are you busy taking your class? sir, you just have to bear with them if there are any!

@dr. O your response to anthony at 2:53 (money is the root of all evil) contradicts you and the entire idea of MJ’s misconduct, shows that you may doubt or might think that he may be innocent after all! MJ was a kid at heart, therefore, he liked being around children, with no worry about the consequences but i wish he had that would’ve saved him trouble and we won’t be here discussing him. Even when the children stayed overnight in his room they slept on the bed and MJ on the floor , if you doubt me you may watch one of his interviews and he was not lying! I don’t intend to validate a point or debate or discuss him ,all i am saying is that MJ was a generous, wonderful, artistic man. Yes, he needed to be careful in dealing with ppl , shouldn’t have settled for $20m in ’93 that might have settled things for a period and also, led ppl believe that any one can extort money from him provided they send their kid to neverland, but was it his fault if he didn’t see what was coming? can you blame him for being naive? He had issues and can you show me someone who doesn’t?, nothing that i have said imply that i have made him “God” you know that! nobody’s perfect and there is only one God above watching us all. MJ was no God but a beautiful human being, though the term “child molesation” may always be linked to his name and ppl may doubt or believe what the wish, he as an artist, a human would never be forgotten.

  @dee dee could you please respond to rinki nandy’s concerns. I think it would be beneficial for this discussion.

@dr O how about you responding to me? Am not playing rinki vs dee dee and dr.o, this site is for MJ haters isn’t it?
admin

@rinki nandi this is NOT a site or a blog for MJ haters! This is simply a discussion to help us find a way to use this situation to reflect on our own lives and beliefs. I appreciate your opinion and enjoy your comments!
DeeDee

This is just SO sad. May Mr. Jackson rest in peace. I only hope that he is defended by some who are capable of representing him with a level of dignity and honor. I actually met him twice and found him to be extremely intelligent and compassionate. It is sad that after death he is being “defended” by apparent functional illiterates. For every person who attacked him there were hundreds who adored him. For every person who mocked him, there were hundreds who magnified him. I had nor have any hatred for MJ. I only hope that among those who thought him to be perfect, there MAY be a few who know that he was an American and in this country, English is the language of choice. Thus, when a defense is offered, it will be understandable. If I could better understand the comments of Rinki Nandy, I would offer a better reply.

Even though I don’t endorse many of the behavioral choices of MJ, I think he deserves better representation. This discussion has now become pathetic and boring. I enjoy a good debate, but insist on worthy challengers.
- admin
  
  @Dee Dee Enough Said. I really enjoyed the subject and verb agreement in your response.
http://askdro.com rinki nandy

You went off track with that reply, you met him twice and think this way. I wonder what you must think like if you had never met him, it’s really sad that MJ met such ppl as “fans”. He deserved to meet real ppl not fakes. This isn’t a debate any longer but a war dirty ppl play.
DeeDee

It sounds to me like Rinki Dinky has deeper issues than I originally thought. Apparently there is some harbored jealousy at the notion that somone like myself would have had not one, but TWO occasions to meet Mike. For the benefit of those who may not be of military heritage; WAR is never played. I don’t know what prompted the ASSumption that I am a “fan” of MJ. I certainly appreciate and enjoy his music, but “fan” is derived from “fanatic” and that is someone who is out of control…I am not only in control of my respect for Mr. Jackson’s music; I am in control of this pitiful little “war”! Soon I will take full control of Little Rinki too. WATCH OUT NOW1

  @Rinki Nandy thank you for your kind words sir!

Michael Jackson was the greatest entertainer…… he model himself after Jackie Wilson, James Brown, Sammy Davis,Jr..and a bit of Little Richard was in there too….Michael became the greatest. We of the African American community Never forgot Michael, or stop giving our love to Mike…..Don’t get it Twisted. Mike did some crazy things,…..Bubbles, Neverland overnight stays, he was in his 30s,and 40s running about like a little kid. We knew his genius, and they always said that Albert Einstein had some issues, Fraud had issues, well damnit Mike had his too. But regardless to whatever issue he had……… Mike sang and danced to that Music.

Mike had bad skin, we all know that. I believe he went to a dermotologist, and they messed him up over the years with the different creams..or injections that resulted in the virta….whatever. He didn’t intentionally want to go white, imagine having to apply that white stuff on and make sure you are even. Something that will not run when you sweat, and most of all not smell medicated…Come on…Mike smoothed that creame and tatooed his eyelashes, brows, lips, etc…..But he still managed to be cute. Plastic surgery and all. Pretty…..wigged down. Mike was a fashion icon even with those odds against him. And while doing all that……..he managed to get love from everyone on the planet. Chinese, Japanese, Somalians, Jews, Greeks, Russians

WE forgot the human in him. He always said he was lonely. I always wished that I could of just hung out with him 1 day. Just have a normal day, smoke some weed and watch some natural stuff like nature. He was in tune with nature, hunger, pain,. He truly wanted to stop it. – That was from day one ………as a child.

Mike’s kid was brought by him, again from those who helped him get what he wanted with money. To me it is sad……….he left those kids behind really like an experiment or something. His mother is too old, bottom line, and Diana is not to far behind Mom. They do not need the responsibility of teenage hood in their autumn years. (Blanket looks like he is a handful). I wish them luck and that they receive good guidance with their lives.

After being assisinated by media attention, speculation and humility, Mike allowed the drugs to medicate. After the trial in 2005, he began his spiral. The FBI followed Mike for 15 years. LAPD humiliated him, and went overboard with their treatment. He left everything and got high. He let his control of debts and money go,………not paying attention.

The people around Mike knew his vulnerabilty and began to prey. They are the same guys that are running the estate and Sony Corporation with Mikes brand. Funny…..Mike had beef (if you will), with All of them, and at one point fired…..or tried to cut ties with them. They knew Mike was doing some kid of medicating, they saw him everyday. You can’t wake up from that stuff and just be normal. The insurance examinations AEG had approved were performed by a quack dr. They were paying Dr. Murray for crying out loud.

Dr Murray, was so cocky and desparate, that he performed this procedure. It is obvious, that the man did not know what he was doing. A real doctor would make sure he had all the paticulars needed. He was the last man standing, and he administred the drug that killed Mike bottom line. He should be in Jail.

Of course Mike was an addict,….again he was over the top. Mike was getting high off propofol. It rocked the medical community. It was not normal.
Of course drug addicts behave badly, but the drug medicates the pain. The drug medicates the lonliness. The drug medicates the hurt, anger, and most of all it medicates the lovelessness. Whether you are feeling unloved, unable to love or just can’t love. Drug get you get caught up. And it takes alot to get uncaught. No one says ….I want to be a drug addict. It was very easy for Mike to get drugs. No real friends or love one to stop him.

Why does everyone get angry when Joe tries to get a cut. Regardless Joe was Mikes Daddy. He raised Mike along with the movie industry. (The average Black American child raised betw the 50′s and the 70′s know about getting “whuppings”. My people were boarderline Joe Jackson, lets be real. We need more Joe’s to kick these younins butts now – Amen.)

We can not turn the hands of time back. Mike did not have a handbook on how to be a star. He just was 1. He made mistakes, it is true and all those Hollywood kids have issues. (That is another discussion.) Mike made his choices, and the result of those choices killed him.

I LUV MIKE ………..RIP

  @brooklynkid1180 Great Remarks!
http://askdro.com kris

I read all remarks and witnessed more love than hatred towards the star. Although their was a “pitiful war” going on between them (Rinki Nandy and Dee Dee), i reckon that both had valid points more or less….a one sided show moreover. I admire your wits in choosing such an extremely debatable topic… nice blog, Brooklyn kid provided some remarkable explanation to all….good to come across this topic….an oppurtunity to experience to feel some compassion in Rinki Nandy’s comments’ …spunk in Dee Dee. Keep up dr.O.
