At the Michael Jackson memorial that went down last week, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee made a promise to have the US House of Representative honor the King of Pop. The Texas Democrat took the stage at the Staples Center event and presented a framed copy of the resolution, embossed with a gold seal. The motion has been debated and has come with great opposition. New York Republican representative Peter King recently called the late King of Pop a “pervert, child molester, pedophile” on a posted YouTube video last week and vowed to do whatever was necessary to oppose the honoring of the singer.
It has recently been revealed that one of the world’s favorite country singers, Carrie Underwood, will be releasing a new album before the end of this year. The American Idol alum’s record label, 19 Recordings/Arista Nashville have announced that Carrie’s new, as-of-yet untitled album is scheduled to be released on November 3. If you don’t have much patience to wait for that, the good news is that a single will soon be hitting your favorite radio station some time over the summer. I can’t wait to hear it. I’m pretty sure it’s going to be another wonderful song and a great album from her.
Micahel Jackson may be gone but there are still a lot of questions that need answers. As the investigation into the death of the King of Pop continues, an insider told Life & Style that cops found what is essentially a “mini hospital” in his rented LA mansion. They found an EKG machine, an automatic blood pressure machine, a portable IV and a mini ventilator. There were also 20 different types of drugs found, some of which were under different names and from different doctors. That doesn’t sound any good at all. As more and more information comes out, it really is looking like the singer died of an overdose.
Michael Jackson was so convinced he was going to die he even warned his daughter Paris, according to a new book – Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson.
Despite reports that he was fit and healthy, Jackson knew he was fading fast and was unlikely to survive his exhausting series of comeback shows at London’s O2 arena, according to the book. And he was so concerned he even told Paris, 11, that he feared he would soon be dead, it is claimed.
Author Ian Halperin said Jackson had the heart-to-heart with Paris about a month before he died – and told her he had only weeks to live.
“He called her into his room and told her not to get mad at him if he didn’t make it to Father’s Day,” one of Jackson’s closest friends allegedly told the biographer. “He felt extremely ill. Unfortunately, no one wanted to help him.”
Halperin says one female aide had told him prior to Jackson’s death: “Someone wants him dead. They keep feeding him pills like candy. They are trying to push him over the edge. He needs serious help. The people around him will kill him.”
