Sexy MJ Pictures--THRILLER!

Hey Y'all!

In an earlier post, I showed off some of the pictures of MJ from the HIStory era that I thought were smoking hot. And now I'm back with some from an earlier time--THRILLER!

Now Thriller, unfortunately, was a little before my time, but as a Michael Jackson fan, I have a deep love and appreciation for the album, though BAD is my fave MJ album. And as an 80s fanatic, I loved the style and how cute Michael looked and just used to dream of him as a kid. He was so beautiful. The only thing I hate is that people think Michael looked ugly as he got older and his appearance changed and I DON'T. I love and adore Michael at all aspects of his life, from when he was a kid, to an acne-riddled teen to a grown man. Okay, enough chit-chat. I'll make with the pictures.

I'd have to be a damned fool to not include a picture of Michael from when he won he record breaking EIGHT grammy awards in 1984, Before MJ, I never knew what a Grammy was. And now, well with him gone, I don't care about the show either. But for 16 years in the middle, I cared and always cheered when he won, one. This outfit is stunning and the colors are so complimentary to Michael. It is teal, and I don't see Michael in teal often. He also wore this jacket to the White House to meet Ronald Reagan the same year.

Michael at the 1984 American Music Awards. This look is so special because it's one of the rare times you see Michael with BLACK glove instead of a white one. I heard he had a bunch of different colored gloves made up, but ultimately settled on the white one that's synonymous with his Billie Jean performance.



I am obsessed with this jacket. Hands down one of my top Michael Jackson looks in his LIFETIME. I remember my jaw just hanging in awe when I first saw this jacket. And it is the only piece of Michael Jackson owned memorobilia that I actually tried to buy when it went to auction. The jacket was 12 thousand dollars and I literally scrambled trying to find things to pawn and sell. If my father had let me see his damn car....I might own that coat. But I love it for how intricate it is. Michael always seemed to wear works of art. And that piece is a 50 pound jacket, nearly half Michael total body weight.
So sexy I could scream!

This is actually on the inside of the gatefold Thriller album and I really think it should have been the cover. It just smolders with sexuality and the innocence that was Michael Jackson at the age of 23. Travolta may have started the white suit, but Michael made it something special.



It;s remarkable to me how Michael's most iconic look--the Billie Jean ensemble--was basically made of a bunch of recycled garments. His sequinned jacket belonged to his mother, his shiny shirt had been worn in 1981 on a special with Diana Ross. The glove had debuted on the 1981 Triumph tour, along with the socks I beleive and who knew how old the loafers were.  But it all combined together to look perfect and gorgeous and I swear when I first saw it I thought it was all brand new. And it kinda was. And it was just a watershed moment in human history. A star was created.
Michael Jackson.

Well, that's enough for now...more next time! LOL!

Four Years in a Cage!

Hey Y'all!

I have to say, today was a very good one for me. Today, that scoundrel that murdered Michael Jackson, Conrad Murray, was sentenced to four years in jail with NO possibility of parole.
And I have to admit, for lack of a better term, I cried like a punk bitch when I heard the judge say it. A part of me didn’t expect it because of all the hoopla involved. And it was it a grand, great relief to me when Judge Pastor basically scolded Murray like a child and then threw the book at him.
I wanted to sprout wings and fly around the damn room. I am well aware that it doesn’t bring Michael Jackson back. But it does offer me and the other legions of fans closure in this dark chapter of MJ fan-dom.
I only hope that at some point, Murray kicks his ass kicked by a fellow inmate or something. Because as immoral as he is, it’s amazing he’s fit to be alive. He was greedy, a liar and went against his better judgment--if he ever possessed it-- to line his pockets with green.
Only bad things come to people like that and I sincerely hope that Conrad Robert Murray gets his. I’m glad that he’s ruined and cannot harm another human being by passing himself off as a competent doctor. All he does is play a doctor on TV. And poorly at that.
I watched that damned, emotionless son of a b**** sit and do nothing but stare and cast the blame on everyone else but himself.
He even had the nerve to blame Michael, the victim in all this. A dead man who’s little blue and cold body in a tomb in California. A man who can’t come and defend himself against that ape-looking liar.
If you ask me, jail is too good for Murray.
He should have gotten the electric chair. Maybe 200 thousand volts going through his lanky ass would wipe that sorrowful, faux-remorse look off his damn face.
I hate him, and I’m so glad, for Michael’s sake he got the maximum. Four years is still too short, but to know he’s in ruins at the old ass age of 58 and forever branded as “MICHAEL JACKSON’S KILLER” will be a fate worse than hell in my opinion because Michael fans are everywhere and they all know his face.
I hope one day Murray does get remorseful about what he’s done and I hope it eats him ALIVE.

Happy Turkey Day!

Okay Y'all!



So tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and unless you're camped out at the mall for Black Friday sales, you will be partaking of the dinner with your family.
And that is exactly what I'm doing. I am going down to New Iberia, LA, to visit the cousins on my father's side of the family, since I CANNOT STAND the ones on my mother's side. (long story)
Anyway, all of us are getting together and cooking. I plan to cook quite a bit, with a ham, a string bean casserole and some cabbage with bacon.
I think there's going to be like five different kitchens jumping with all kinds of goodies. I only hope that my cousin Bianca makes her "famous" peach cobbler.  I'm really looking forward.

If I'm not too stuffed LOL, I'll blog from Louisiana.

Till next time, Happy Thanksgiving and be safe!
