We’ve got more pics from the red carpet arrivals for Debra Lee’s Pre-BET Awards dinner this weekend:
LeToya Luckett looked fab in this coral dress.
Pooch Hall and his wife Linda hit the carpet looking extra happy. They also have 3 kids together.
La La hit the carpet in this nice white belted dress.
And Rocsi’s look…I still can’t decide if I love it. I know one thing, LisaRaye is probably thinking this chick stole her man and her signature color.
Our BET sources tell us that New Edition may be coming together to perform a tribute to Michael Jackson tonight at the BET Awards. That’ll be interesting. We also hear Damian Hall from Guy is involved in a MJ tribute as well.
More red carpet pics when you read the rest….
Fonzworth Bentley and Juicy J held it down for the fellas.
Debra Lee looked nice in all black.
Elise Neal rocked a long maxi dress.
Love Wendy Raquel Robinson–chick is always extra happy on the red carpet.
Ray-J and his mom hit the carpet.
Tocarra rocked an interesting black dress. Loves the shoes though.
Terri Vaughn looked nice as usual.
Terry Crews and his wife hit the carpet. Somebody must have not gotten a dress code memo…
And Tatyana Ali looked fabulous in this multi-pink dress.
I hear Usher walked off Larry King’s show last night. He’s in town to tribute Michael Jackson at tonight’s awards, and stopped by the show to discuss his idol. But after the conversation turned to negativity and focusing on Michael’s addictions and issues, Usher said:
“I realize this is your platform, but a family has lost a son, a brother, a father and they are still mourning the loss, all the other stuff will eventually come out but I can’t believe we are sitting here talking about addiction at this point!”
He shook Larry’s hand and left on a good note. Those who actually saw the show confirm that Usher was there via satellite and did not “walk off”. But did put Larry King’s guests who were being disrespectful to Michael’s memory in check. Glad he did. He still left on a good note and was invited back.
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:31 PM
Looking forward to the show!
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:35 PM
larry king is such a bitch . i`m glad usher left .. the media has attacked MJ for years and even in death they won`t let him rest, smh .
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:36 PM
In general, everyone looks nice.
Lala always looks high or drunk to me. Maybe she should lay off the smokey eye look because she has more eyelids than the average woman…
Why is Terry’s wife the only one in jeans?
I like Wendy’s dress…
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:36 PM
That was classy of Usher, glad he did not go down that road with Larry King.
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:38 PM
I didn’t know Pooch Hall was married with kids….
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:39 PM
He didn’t walk off the show. He was on via satellite and he did get angry. Larry saw that and thanked him for stopping by and said he would have him on again on a tribute show. Usher was respectful. Larry was not attacking him. Usher got made b/c a friend of MJ’s was discussing his drug use and the abuse by his doctors.
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:39 PM
kudos to usher because on some of thew other sites they are saying some really jacked up things about Michael. I know he was not perfect and different but damn let people greive and respect his family and legacy for now.
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:41 PM
I think Wendy is just extra silly! LOL! She looks like she always making somebody laugh! Loved her character on The Game.
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:43 PM
YES, New Edition!!!!
I bet the tribute is going to be BEYOND awesome!
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:43 PM
Oh, and is that the REAL Michael Jackson posing with Usher or a statute?!
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:43 PM
I’m glad Usher walked off of Larry’s show. I feel as though the negativity that the media always put out about Michael contributed to his downward spiral. As you can see from the pictures of him and his family from the previous post, he wasn’t some type of crazy man they painted him to be. I seriously cannot stand the media and the naive people that believe everything that they put out. It doesn’t matter what negative things Michael Jackson did! All that matters is that he was an INCREDIBLE person with a big heart, who did so much for the world and today’s music. I can’t believe Larry would even do that. It seems that people are so determined to get ratings and will do it at any cost. Even if that means dragging Michael’s name through the mud continuously. Let him rest in peace! He was tormented enough on a daily when he was alive. He was the rebuttal of everyone’s jokes. Let him rest in peace! Give his family the respect they deserve in this time to not be hounded by photographers outside of their home! So disrespectful!
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:55 PM
I DNT LIK NOBODY LOOK..I GUESS I GOTTA WAIT 4 BEYONCE N RHIANNA IF SHE COMING
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:56 PM
It’s really Michael Jackson. It was from his tribute show from years ago and TVone just aired it the other night.
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:57 PM
NEVER HEARD OF POOCH HALL (don’t feel like goog him). DEBRA HALL HAS LOST SOME WEIGHT…SHE LOOKS GOOD. LATOYA IS PRETTY..NOT FEELING THAT CURTAIN DRESS THOUGH……..IT SEEMS TO BE THE ‘IN’ DRESS AT THE MOMENT.
Sun, June 28, 2009 1:58 PM
Thanks! And I meant statue?! Been writing too many legal papers.
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:00 PM
I was watching Larry King @ the time and was THRILLED that Usher took a stand against the negativity that Deepak Chopra and some other guests kept focusing on!!! SO proud of him for doing that! Oh, and everybody looks nice :-)
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:07 PM
I like YBF and all, but i see ppl on here commenting about Larry King’s show that night, and jumping to conclusions based of what Natasha said. She typed that she HEARD, and you guys running with that story. Larry was NOT bashing MJ or MJ’s friend [the one who saw him the wed night b4 he died] and a Doctor, were the ones talking about prescription drugs, and LiZa was saying if you think Anna Nicole was bad, wait on the autopsy then all hell is gonna break lose. In addition Usher was on VIA satellite when Larry saw he was getting upset based on what MJ’s friends were saying Larry Thanked him for coming
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:09 PM
I’m looking forward to the tribute. I hope BET does not have some WACKED OUT people singing his songs. I’m talking people that we haven’t heard from in years that even MJ wouldn’t sing with.
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:15 PM
THANK YOU USHER!!!!! It’s about time somebody stand up.Give the family a break. It’s over now. Let it go. Mike was never convicted of anything.Some people just want to zero in on the negativity. Let the man rest in peace. He deserves it.
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:15 PM
good job usher.
Everyone looks nice.
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:22 PM
Letoya looks gorgeous…as usual.
La La looks tired.
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:22 PM
Usher did a good thing.
LaLa can never take a good picture, her facial expressions are always crazy.
Rocsi looks like the help.
I adore Wendy Raquel Robinson, she’s hilarious and just an all round great personality.
Letoya Luckett looks BOMB!
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:24 PM
I just read that the last kid that accused Michael, has come out and said Micheal did nothing and he was forced by his parents to say those things. I saw Larry King and both Usher and Liza Minneli put him in check! Michael had real friends and I am proud of them!!!
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:24 PM
They might as well call it the MJ tribute. I don’t want to see anybody win any awards. I just want to see MJ get some RESPECT.
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:25 PM
I like Toccara’s dress, it’s nice to see her boobs covered up! She always has them out most of the time. She looks classy in that pic. That was nice of Usher to make a stand for MJ like a real man should but letting his wife know about the divorce through the media was not very “manly”. I don’t understand Roschi’s outfit, I don’t think the shoes go with that dress at all and is the cupcake part of the outfit…an accessory? I just don’t get it. FAIL!!!
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:26 PM
i can’t wait to see NE
luvs “piggy”, “boss lady”, “ms. grier”, “tasha mack”
luvs “honey bump”, “la vita”
toccara found something to cover up her…
luvs juicy j. i loved their show
rocsi’s shoes…kick back
le toya looked nice minus the shoes
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:27 PM
oh rocsi…she tries so hard but it just really never quite comes together i.m.h.o. i like the concept of toccara’s dress, but she’s a member of the “dd crew” like me and sometimes we have to come to terms that certain looks don’t work for us. kudos to usher! it saddens me to hear all this negativity about mj (RIP) so soon. it is all speculation, rumors, hearsay, whatever. lets keep it positive!
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:35 PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I’m still hoping Derwin Davis & Melanie Barnett will jump out and be all PDA like. You cant do this Pooch, you’re breaking my heart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TEAM MELANIE! (and THE GAME!)
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:36 PM
Wtf is wrong with larry king. Why the hell won’t he and the media just leave michael alone and let him rest in peace. Michael was a great man always kind and giving. He donated 50 million to charities. Yes he had some problems but the man was and will always be a music legend. Plain and simple. My heart goes out to his family. stay stong!!
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:36 PM
can’t wait to see NE
luvs “piggy”, “boss lady”, “ms. grier”, “tasha mack”

glad toccara found something to cover up her…
le toya looks nice minus the patent leather shoes
mrs. norwood looks like a cigg smoker
luvs juicy j. i miss their show
wth? rocsi’s shoes
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:37 PM
Usher didn’t walk off nothing but he did defend MJ’s honor. I thought it was admireable. Larry invited him back to the show for future conversation and Usher accepted and said he looked forward to it. Unfortunately, u saw someone who wouldn’t let MJ destroy himself in front them (Deepak Chopra) and one of his inhibitors (Miko Brando). It was obvious between the 2 who needed MJ and who didn’t far as importance in their lives.
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:41 PM
I saw Larry King and Usher didn’t walk off the show. He was on w/Liza Minelli via satellite so he couldn’t shake Larry King’s hand. It was obvious that he was upset and it appeared that Larry King cut him short…
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:44 PM
Usher didn’t walk off the show…. and I think his ‘anger’ came off as him trying to take a ridiculous stand against Deepak Chopra (a spiritual advisor & friend to Michael for far longer than Usher has known Michael). Deepak was discussing addiction… this was not a tabloid-ish discussion about allegations that were proven untrue in a court of law.
It is pretty clear at this point that Michael had some addiction issues. They shouldn’t be ’swept under a rug’, or denied… they likely were the reason for his untimely death. It’s sad; but addiction is not ‘negative’ it is a disease. I see no reason why Michael & his legacy can’t be discussed while simultaneously discussing the disease he battled. People should take the stigma off of addiction. I was born in the 70’s… Michael was plastered all over my walls in the 80’s. I loved him, he was amazing, a genius, an icon… he was brilliant. He was also perfectly human, and flawed… Deepak Chopra understood Michael’s complexities. Usher came off as someone who wanted to take a stand on something, but didn’t really know what he was talking about.
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:45 PM
Latoya looks FAB!!!! That dress is pretty!! Gorgeous Girl!!
Terri looks great!! She’s glowing. She looks young and happy!
Okay now Tasha Mack!!!
Pooch ( Derwin ) is still sexy!!
Not feeling Tocarra at all. PLEASE get a breast reduction! She looks crazy. Get that or gain 10 pounds. Her body looks stupid!! At least her titties aren’t hanging out though!
Tatyana looks Great! So happy to see more of her!
Usher is cheesing like Mike is there. Sad situation!!
I wish I could see the front of Elise dress!
Rosci actually looks Nice!! I love the ensemble!!
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:50 PM
YES!!!! Usher don’t play when it comes to Mike!! The media is ridiculous!! I mean he hasn’t even been buried yet and the media is already going nuts! Geesh
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:52 PM
I can see how lots of artist will try an exploit this situation to get back their career. I don’t watch no tv shows about Micheal Jackson, because if an alien came to earth they wouldn’t know MJ was a musician from watching these shows. they would think he was on the pipe for the last 40 yrs.
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:56 PM
BTW Juicy J cleans up very well. I love to see a rapper that doesn’t always look like the stereotypical rapper! He has a HAIRCUT, a suit that fits him well, and a well -groomed face. Good Job!
Sun, June 28, 2009 2:59 PM
Debra Lee is GORGEOUS. I cant believe she’s 50 plus.
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:01 PM
Me either? I’m upset. (like I really had a shot lol)
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:04 PM
99.99 % OF WHITE MEDIA ARE FOCUSING ON THE NEGATIVE. UNFORTUNATELY IT IS ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE. IT SEEMS LIKE THE BLACK CELEBRITIES ARE TAKING A STAND AND NOT CONTRIBUTING TO THE NEGATIVE. I NOTICED NEYO PUT EM CHECK TO, OF COURSE AL SHARPTON AND FLO DIDN’T WANT TO HEAR IT. I DON’T THINK THE BLACK CELEBRITIES ARE GOING TO ALLOW THEM TO TRASH MICHAEL.
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:07 PM
I think they should do it like a regular award show except everyone should perform an MJ song instead of their own.
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:17 PM
Big ups to Usher walking off Larry King’s set…smh @ folks trying to down Michael Jackson..man isn’t even 6 feet under yet… Half these folks lining coke along tables, etc. Geez. They bashed him the last 10 years or so…get off these child molestation allegations and drug stories.
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:23 PM
i know this a black website and all but the oxy clean man died this morning billy mays….so sad
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:26 PM
ok
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:26 PM
New Edition doing the Jackson 5 is a good look!!!
And I am glad Usher walked off the set. We need to be celebrating his talent and not his past issues!!
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:27 PM
dang!! good for usher i know they will replay that i want to see that…cant wait to see the show i hear some people changed their sets to do things for MJ…still hard to believe….
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:32 PM
Wendy Raquel Robinson always look great
Pooch Hall is so cute
and LeToya Luckett look great good to see that she is going to be at the bet awards
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:51 PM
I disagree with you. If they were really his friends, they would have done something before now to deal with his addiction. Dr. Deepak, knows that there are ways to legally force someone into treatment. If you weren’t willing to come forward while he was alive, don’t trash him now. Perhaps if these so called friends had come forward to the media in the past, he would still be alive.

letoya is fabulous!
didn’t know pooch hall was a family man, so that’s a good look for him!
juicy j looks like a grown and sexy dude that i’d give the digits to!
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:54 PM
Joja86 the show in your avi is sick!!!
Pooch is really an actor with all that baggage I mean a wife and kidsss.
Little Mama is a fright in the face Jeeezzz Laweeez
Good job Usher!! Kudos if he walks away or just was noticably upset I’m proud of him. Mike ruled this thing and it was seen everytime he showed up at whatever the time for whatever event he smashed. With J at Summer Jam or with Chris Tucker he was idolized. That is what needed to be recognized. Seriously we are all a little fucked up….
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:56 PM
Also the Oxi Clean guy died. Tragic weekend to die. I tell ya. Mike trumps everybody in my eyes…
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:59 PM
I totally agree. Michael was a human who had issues and that’s ok because we all have issues but people can’t continue to deify the man. I think that was also a cause for the stress he went through in life. So many people worshiped him and he didn’t know who to handle that.
Sun, June 28, 2009 3:59 PM
Usher is starting to redeem himself. I almost lost hope on dude due to unusual antics as of late. I am a fan afterall. Love that he stood up for Micheal. Much respect.
LeToya is gorgeous.
Pooch is gorgeous man.
New Edition to do a tribute to Jackson 5 is wonderful.
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:00 PM
*high five* to Usher..im glad he walked off
these people on the news are talking about all types of other shit, wen they need to be talking about what’s important..NOT once did i hear any of those new people talking about his humanitarian efforts, and the millions of dollars he put into helping children in need around the world..SMH!, so damn sad. they wanna talk about irrelevant shit..
almost everyone looks nice..
*gasp* rocsi looks nice for the FIRST TIME EVER! (she’s still whack though)
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:10 PM
LeToya and Terri Vaughn looked amazing!
Juicy J looks polished for a change.
LaLa…not really feeling the toga sheet dress. She’s a beautiful woman, but something always seems off with her!
Terry Crews’ wife (deliberate pause)..What in the Toucan Sam hell was she thinking?!!!!
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:12 PM
Lala has never met a red carpet she didn’t like to strut on. Sometimes I wonder if she even knows what event she’s at SMDH!
Anywhoo, the MJ celebration will be hard. I pray for strength for his family and us fans.
LeToya looks nice as always.
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:19 PM
Can you believe Farrah Fawcett has about 800 comments on MSN and MJ has about 100? And the amount of negative repulsing comments “those people” are putting on there? Talking about they are glad that pedophile is dead? I think you all should go over there and comment.
Racism is well alive. I believe this whole child molestation was to smear his image so he will always be tainted as the superstar turned child molester. No matter what he was still a black man and that’s why they treated him like that. And while comments like that are on MSN – clearly by white people. Yet no one talks about Elvis when he was fucking Priscilla when she was 13 YEARS OLD and he was 23!!! The media is what killed him. The poor man. Everyone used him. EVERYONE. He was exploited since he was still a young boy. What a life he must have had.
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:26 PM
Got this coral dress that am planing to wear at a wedding, apart from a nude pair of shoes what other colour shoes cud I wear? Help plz anyone
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:28 PM
I agree..I agree. It’s so sad.
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:33 PM
white ppl talking all this shit about mike. We ALL have, but jesus, not RIGHT AFTER he died suddenly.
Some ppl have no couth. Bet they wont be a negative word at the BET awards (PLEASE dont let them b wack)
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:42 PM
That is what pains me the most. Thinking how much Michael gave and gave to all of us and how much shit the people threw and kept throwing at him.
He was such a gentle soul and I know it must have been extremely hard to deal with all the ridicule he faced daily. Who could deal with that type of ish? No human can.
And yet, he was still humble and giving and so gentle with everyone. Never complained. Always the happy Michael when you saw him in public. That gentle voice….It hurts me deeply knowing that we never repaid back to him what immense love and art he showed all of us. We let him die isolated and misunderstood by the world.
This is what pains me tremendiously.
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:46 PM
thank you. it’s sad, distaseful, disheartening, but unfortunately it’s right in step with our cash-driven for profit US media institution. They don’t care about this man’s family. They don’t care about the millions of dollars he donated to ending suffering in the world, or the countless unsung things he’s probably done to try and make it a better place. Its up to us, the CONSUMERS, to not watch. not tune in, not read and show them- where it hurts (ratings) that Michael Jackson’s life and legacy is bigger than any of the negative things they try and focus on. HPYOCRISY. God bless and keep MJ’s family and friends during this difficult time……….
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:49 PM
Could you send the link plz? I cant find it
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:58 PM
Good for Usher, he earn mad respect for that! I think it is sad that some of the media had to turn a tragedy into something negative and mean towards towards the legend that is Micheal Jackson disregarding his family, friends and fans. And the so called “friend” that was speaking ill of Michael is just looking for his 15 minutes. Again, that is so sad but then again there goes white media for you. They can bring everyone down especially someone like Michael Jackson but “gasps” if you speak ill of Elvis who stole most of his material from black entertainers, was a racist, and among many other things I won’t list but they fail to mention those things. I have two words for the white media “fuck you” I can’t wait for the day that black people and people of color takes over that field as well, maybe some ethical and unbias journalism will finally be reported. Whew, enough of my rantings.
But on a different note:
I think for the most part everyone looks great, Not feeling the shoes Rocsi has on and Tocarra dress is ill fitting and doesn’t do nothing for her shape. I know my mom can’t wait for New Edition!!!!
Sun, June 28, 2009 4:58 PM
Since the show isn’t coming on until 5pm (PT) here, @ 4:30pm (PT) hubby and I will be firing up the grill/stove, with 8oz Filet Mignons and Crab Cakes, along with a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon….LOVE red wine with beef. Don’t know why, but it’s the perfect pairing.
I’m looking forward the BET Awards….It will be bittersweet. I will be TiVo-ing it as well. I’ve been listening to Mr Jackson’s music all weekend. I like ALL his music, but I’ve been listening to his early music; no special equipment to enhance his voice, just good music, wholesome lyrics and very few instruments. Those were the good ole days. RIP Michael, you were are loved.
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:01 PM
@ anonymous
I have been on sites where they have been joking about Micheal’s death. I got attacked when I joked about Farrah’s death. WTH? Death is no joking matter. 3 kids are without a father, but apparently it’s ok to joke about MJ, but not Farrah because she is blonde(dyed) with blue eyes..Racism IS alive and well. The reason MJ was doing his tours over in London is because they love him overseas, and are not so judgemental as in the US..smh
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:03 PM
Anyone who wants to talk smack about MJ can KMA. I will always treasure that he brought so much, in so small amout of time. RIP Micheal – may you have the peace now you sought for so dearly in life.
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:20 PM
———
amen, his was respected more outside of the USA.. that is no lie and its such a shame.. american media are just out to destroy people.. they are worst in the world!!! they never have anything positive to say.. no wonder its the number hated country.. jus saying, you need to stop your media!!!!!!
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:21 PM
What is La La doing at the BET awards with words on the wall that say my black is beautiful? There’s nothing black about La La 100% Puerto Rican self. Even though she would never be invited to an Latin Music awards show. You’re standing in front of a wall that say my black is beautiful. I thought u said black don’t translate well in other countries? Looks like u don’t have a problem with it now. She’s one of these people that wants to be black when it’s convenient or when they can benefit from it. I see through this bitch and all the rest.
We need someone in the business to call out people like La La and others.
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:22 PM
FARRAH’S FAMILY WAS NOT BLACK FRIENDLY. IN THE 70′S AT THE HEIGHT OF HER POPULARITY, FARRAH HERSELF SAID SHE WOULD DISOWN HER DAUGHTER IF SHE BROUGHT A BLACK MAN HOME. MAYBE SHE CHANGED IN HER LATER YEARS, WHO KNOWS. ITS SAID THAT HER 90 YR OLD TEXAN DAD USES THE WORD ‘NIGGER’ LIKE WE SAY ‘HELLO’, BUT THE IRONY OF IT ALL IS, A BLACK MAN’S DEATH, OVER SHADOWED HER DEATH.
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:31 PM
@RACIST FARRAH DESERVES TO RIP – Are you serious? Makes me hate her even more now. I’m so glad MJ overshadowed her! What has she done that is even remotely on Michaels radar? NOTHING! The only thing I’ve heard about her is being in friggin’ Charlies Angels and one stupid poster. Big deal. And people are praising her on MSN like she has done something so special. Shows how white people really are.
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:35 PM
FARRAH was a 2 bit actress. Her death was not unexpected. She was famous for a calender,one season of an series and a bunch of failed flops of movies that bombed,and the mother of a drug addict. Her death simply does not have the impact that MJ had.
Even the BBC pre-emptied their news shows to carry MJ specials..they only do that for royalty. MJ was pop royalty
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:36 PM
Hey – Did you hear what killed Farrah Fawcett?
some asshole..
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:36 PM
They’re(white people) angry at Mike for dying the same day as Farrah. He took over every station in every country which means all of the attention was off of her. This is why all the negativity, to pay him back. SMDH!
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:44 PM
Wait!!! not to speak ill of the dead, but Farrah was no angel her damn self (no pun intended). On the MSNBC site are they commenting on her screwing Ryan O’Neal while she was still married to Lee Majors???? Back in 05, before her illness was diagnosed, you could look at Farrah and tell she was a heavy boozer, it was written all over her face. Are they discussing her drug and alcohol usage on the MSNBC board????? Its ALL bad, but don’t slam Michael like he was Lucifer himself to build this broad up. Can’t wait for my people to pay tribute to Michael this evening.
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:45 PM
Got anal cancer?
Going for a shit?
Don’t Fawcett…lol!
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:47 PM
@ Wait!
not to mention she did a lot of plastic surgery..really F*** up her face with it. She looked like a hag afterwards
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:50 PM
Good one. I think her ASS CANCER was AIDS related. That is why she stayed in Europe seeking experimental treatments that are not offered here in the US.
I know for a fact that a lot of AIDS infected celebrities go to Europe seeking alternative remedies. Anal cancer is a rare cancer and is often associated with AIDS. Let them racist bitches on the other boards know what’s really up.
Sun, June 28, 2009 5:54 PM
Thanks
Sun, June 28, 2009 6:18 PM
IDK Maybe because she familarizes her self with “black” culture, just like Robin Thick, Eminem, Fat Joe, Paul Wall, and J-Lo once did along with others. With the exception that La La genuinely likes black people (not saying J-Lo didn’t but we’ve seen how shes distance her self). Plus blacks and hispanics are sometimes looked at as one which is why Rocsi works at B.E.T and she’s not black either, but I see what you’re saying. :-) btw isn’t B.E.T owned by Jewish people/company now?

They identify with black when it is to their advantage to do so. J Lo identified ‘black’ when she was dating Diddy. As for the rappers, their milkin it to. When it’s cool or ’street’, they identify black. Soon as its not cool anymore, they will fall back into their white and Hispanic roots.

Lala is cute..but her eyes kinda throw me off..I dont know if its the lids or what..
That coral dress is very flattering on LeToya’s complexion..
I actually like Rocsi’s look..it works for her..
Wendy Raquel Robinson seems like such cool peoples..like she’d be the funny friend that would always say something silly to cheer you up..

Chopra was one of the few who did take a stand while Michael was alive. He refused to fill a narcotics prescription for him… and in turn, Michael alienated him. He talked about how every time he confronted Michael about the addiction issues, Michael would stop returning his calls. If you’ve ever dealt with someone who has addiction issues… you can only do so much, until they are ready to commit to getting help themselves. Chopra, however, was a true friend to Michael, in that he wasn’t enabling him.
I do agree that the media shouldn’t focus on Michael’s legal troubles. He was found innocent of those… and though I may be in the minority, never really thought Michael was guilt of any of those allegations. Talking about addiction is a different issue altogether… I don’t think in tarnishes his musical legacy at all. It is a sad fact… and perhaps, Michael’s story can still save others.

LALA IS PUERTO RICAN AND PUERTO RICANS HAVE NO CULTURE SO GET REAL1 ALL THEY EVER DO IS STEAL FROM BLACK PEOPLE TO GET OVER. AND THEY HAVE BEEN DOING IT FOR YEARS. ISN’T HER P.R. BOYFRIEND CARMELO DOING A MOVIE ABOUT MIKE TYSON? I GUESS NOBODY IN AMERICA WANTED TO SEE A BIO OF A P.R. SPORTS STAR. I DON’T BLAME THEM.

GOOD ONE URSH!!

The majority of people from around the world didn’t even know who Farrah was so if the media wants to celebrate her life let them, the woman is gone. MJ is being celebrated allover this planet as far away as China. Fifty years from now MJ will be remembered for his musical artistry above all else. If the media brings up the negative it is par for the course because the media builds people up to tear them down and MJ, bless his tortured soul was far from perfect. It is no joke for a boy to be molested by a male it leaves all kinds of emotional scars, I know because it happened with my brother. So lets be reasonable and expect MJ past to be put on display, they do it with all icons. The most important thing is that God forgave him if he asked forgiveness and that’s what matters. RIP Michael.

Black American culture has been viewed as the coolest culture the world over and everybody knows it. It has been that way forever with people worldwide loving the Blues, Gospel, Jazz, R & B, Rock and Roll, and unfortunately, Rap. It is white & black culture that rules in America and always will.
Sun, June 28, 2009 6:58 PM
People around the world knew who Farrah Fawcett was!! Her hair stye alone was copied time and time again and especially during the early 2000’s. Also she was like queen on hotpants
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:02 PM
Rosci is fine becuz she ain’t a spic. The spics can go to hell becuz they are zero in this country and always will be.
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:04 PM
For peace sake leave the dead woman alone don’t start shit about the dead let her rest in peace, I don’t care what she said or did 30 years ago that doesn’t matter now so let her alone and stop being so evil minded.
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:07 PM
I was going to say the same thing, R.I.P Farrah and Michael. God bless and rest your souls.
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:10 PM
Most of ya’ll need to do some research and stop being so hateful!! Of course we all know MJ’s death could have over shadowed the POPE’s death but Racist, Farrah was’nt. Most of ya’ll don’t know she fought and lobbyed for African American rights down at Universities in Texas before the world even knew who she was. Her own family has even said that she was very private so they are glad that they lay her to rest without so much attention. Stop being so hateful, some of ya’ll talk about what the media is doind to Michael right now, albeit very very hateful, but ya’ll are doing the same. Please spare me the blog beef with all the name calling bcus thats not even my style.
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:12 PM
@ Nicey
I grew up overseas..no-one really has a clue who or what Farrah Fawcett is famous for.She’s really not that know outside of the US, a B or C list actress at best.At best you’ll get a Farrah who? even in the smallest village everyone knows who MJ is.
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:25 PM
Some of the other sites like TMZ i refuse to go on. People are saying some of the most lude things about Michael! It’s sad how disturbed some people are
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:34 PM
LOL, puleeze, the above poster was right. I even saw on another site, where the interview was posted; this was sometime ago and she did state her daughter would be disowned. People who lived and grew up in Texas verified her family was racist. I will see if the site still has the interview, and I would like you to find a link with Farrah Lobbying for African American rights.
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:37 PM
Queen of the hot pants and her hairstyle. Yep she contributed a lot to our society. She should be idolized from now until the end of time.
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:49 PM
Bigup to P Diddy – he just called CNN out on their media coverage of MJ.
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:53 PM
Even when that crazy Kim Jong-Il of North Korea was asked whom did he admire most in the world he said Michael Jordan. Black culture is huge in Asia, Europe and the Middle-East. In Iraq the most loved and famous foreign celebrity is Lionel Richie, ugh, just kidding. Michael’s death was covered by news agencies the world over, his face was on the front covers of newspapers everywhere the day after he died. I am not dismayed by the negative reporting of the media because this is exactly how they operate. When Britney was going through her troubles they rejoiced and waited with baited breathe for her to have a car accident and die. This is the media, bad news sells and when there is a hint of sexually inappropriateness, it sells like crazy. But its over now, they will drag Michael through the dirt for some time to come but eventually the public will focuse on his magnificent talent. I am able to separate his talent and respect that part of him and for the joy he brought the world. He, like all of us, was flawed and pursued by his demons and for that I am so sorry for him.
Sun, June 28, 2009 7:56 PM
So what? Who cares what she thought a generation ago? Leave the woman in peace for her son’s sake. I don’t give a damn about her 92 year old daddy, I expect someone of his generation to think the way he did. And his beliefs probably did rub off on his daughters, again so what?
Sun, June 28, 2009 8:15 PM
Her Family is not her! lol Seriously?? Go google it them maybe you will find it. Whatever the case, it’s no reason to bash a dead person and then say others are wrong when people on here are doing the same thing
Sun, June 28, 2009 8:19 PM
Thats not what I was saying,we all know the no one can compare to Michael Jackson. But for people to say that she wasnt known in the world is far from true. People in other parts of the world could tell u that Paris Hilton carries a damn chiauaha, regardless of her LACK of work, thats still a simple, albeit, stupid reason people know her.
Sun, June 28, 2009 8:19 PM
WHAT DID HE SAY?
Sun, June 28, 2009 8:31 PM
@ No Hate
google Diddy Chides CNN for focusing on Negative aspects of Michael Jackson’s Life
Sun, June 28, 2009 8:34 PM
There is a very insightful article on Michael Jackson today at Time.com. Everyone should read it, it made me sad but the truth is the truth. He was a sad, glorious, beyond talented man but he had so many problems it’s a wonder he didn’t ebd up in a strait jacket. I just don’t understand why his family, especially Janet since she seems the most sane one, didn’t do more to help him.
Mon, June 29, 2009 12:26 AM
Pooch Hall (Derwin)…I have lost all interest..ughh!
Mon, June 29, 2009 12:29 AM
Girl, you too? I was thinking the EXACT same thing.
Mon, June 29, 2009 2:28 AM
no doubt Oxi-Clean is going to see a 300% increase in sales over the next couple of days
Mon, June 29, 2009 9:04 AM
T.I.’s woman tiny looks like a tiny roach. How the heck do they give this ugly ghetto chick a tv show. She had the nerve to say that T.I. was the King last night, how ghetto was that? Michael Jackson is and always will be the King.
Mon, June 29, 2009 10:18 AM
ok Carmelo’s shirt? JORDAN???? try JACKSON!!
Mon, June 29, 2009 10:44 AM
I saw the Larry King Interview, and both Usher and Liza Minelli put Larry and the others in their places are were promptly cut off from the show. I though it was rude and disrespectful of Larry and crew to do that. I liked Larry up until then, but I won’t watch his show anymore. Kudo’s to Usher and Liza.
Mon, June 29, 2009 12:52 PM
Wow!! Janet looked to fantastic last night. I feel so bad for the Jackson family. I wish them all well… even Joe Jackson.
Mon, June 29, 2009 2:57 PM
Would someone please shoot Rosci
Ughhh hate her
