I think he was just odd (who isn't when growing up from such a young age and at the mercy of being a money making machine for adults) and while he might have been obsessed with hanging out with kids, I don't believe he did se*ually inappropriate things. But maybe that's just me not wanting to believe. But being odd and not well-adjusted is different from being a pedo.

Culkin and other celeb kids say he never acted inappropriately. After all, they don’t need his money.


Or, you know, predators know not to go after high profile targets who can ruin them.

And to learn that the movie brushes over the scandalous parts of his story… I don’t know if this is right.

(Actually, Bill Cosby is worse and therefore sadly I cannot support him by watching his shows anymore.)


There’s talk a second movie will come out addressing his issues. Gotta make that money!

The review says that the movie covers his early life up to the release of the Bad album. Probably wise to end it there before all the allegations came up.

Michael Jackson has not been cancelled. His estate earns over 100 million dollars annually, and since his death 3.5 billion dollars.


Do his children get most of the money from the estate?

I think this will be the most intriguing part, reliving the rise of the King of Pop.
