Does it bother you that when MJ was alive he didn't get a lot of recognition, but as soon as he died everyone was all like "oh i miss him, he was a great guy".

i wish i could of been there before he died i loved the wiz and his songs like ABC when i was 10 im 16. i was young at the time i wish i was there for him i hate my self for not being there for him :'( i wish mais ppl respected Michael Jackson before he died and still respected him now i really do amor and care about him he's my ícone i look up to him as a father figure if he were never here the world would mean nothing to me he made música alive and he touches my coração with magic hes a true hero i dont care what anybody says i wish ppl didn't call him a pedo cuz hes not how would they know if they weren't even there it just hurts me when ppl hurt michael

youre right!i thought same way about him before he died. and i haate myself for that!! i wish i would know him before... but i was too young and i believed every shit i heard about him!nobody said it was not true! and thats the reason why i dont say ''im MJ fan'' anymore! because its like ''wow hes dead now i amor him. if he was still alive i would hate him!'' i dont feel like a real fan! cause its over.everything is over and it just started for me after it was over! his música will live forever and i still amor him but i feel terrible!!! i get embarrassed when i say i became a fã after his death! :( im sure im not the only one who feels this way...
but im sooo thankful that i know him now,his music!his fans! <33

good pergunta btw and yeah your exactly right people dont realize what they are doing until they think about it and like you said they did call him that and was all like oh i hate him and everything but as soon as he passed away they thought he was the greatest person ever even though they put him through alot of crap with the teasing and the mocking of his voice and everything and your exactly right about the true fã an true fã wouldnt do that

fi before he died they were like omg hes a "pedo" and all that then ya it bugs me. but if they were alike me and didnt have any way to listen to his música and learn anything about him then no it doesnt bug me

So true. To be honest, like many people didn't give a damn when he was alive. And now that he's dead everyone is like Long live the king....I miss him. So I get your point.

well,yes,it bothers me.it really bothers me.i mean people were like<<Wacko Jacko is a weirdo>>blah blah blah blah and now they are like<<poor MJ>>and stuff.a real fã would ALWAYS support him,not only after his death.God bless Michael's fans

this is so true :( After he died it was like a 'trend' to be a fan....Since i was alitle girl(I'm NOW only 15) i ever wonder how he could be soooo cute :) and i amor him and i always know he wasn't a bad man he's an angel....All these people out there don't understand what i feel when i think about him....i just amor him no matter what they say...<3

It's very sad I agree.. :(
But you know, a true fã is a true fã always!! No matter when a person became a fã (before or after his death).
MJ was very, very, very appreciated before his death too.. I discovered him when he was in the topo, início of all tops!! he was magical.. the greatest artist in the whole world and everywhere he was going he was taking breaths away..
I know a lot of people (unfortunatelly) that before his death called him weired, pedo etc.. and after his death was the same thing :(

But true amor last forever.. and true fãs will remain always true fans..

Uhm...

He still had TONS of fãs while he was alive.

I think he's actually become a bit overrated after his death.

I don't see the point in complaining about it.

His fãs always knew the truth.

Well, some people (like me) weren't born in a good time for him... '95 and continuing was when all the lies came out, and I took them,, because I didn't really know him-- BUT!!! When I was real little, and I once saw him on the TV screen, I fell in amor with him, and he was my imaginary friend (And I thought Michael Jackson was a really long name, so I thought I was the only one calling him MJ and thought I was the shizz) and then, from that point I kinda forgot about him, the only thing reminiding me that he was stil there were the charges. I didn't remember who Michael Jackson was, and my friends were telling me all this crap about him, that he was a child molester an shit, and I went along with it... I didn't know better, and I was afraid to learn about him, cuz what if my friends make fun of me? God, I did some stupid things....... I hate myself so much for it.......... I didn't become a fã because it was cool (You see how the awareness has gone down since 2009? If I was a trend-zombie I wouldnt be here), I became one because I felt really sorry, then I listened to his music, and saw how cute and caring he really was, and prayed to God to ask Michael to forgive me.........
Michael, I'm still so sorry that it hurts. I'm sorry I hurt you. I'd give anything just to go back..........
And know alot of people probably hate me cuz I'm a "fake-fan." But, I know I amor you, and that's all that matters.

Im 15 and i have always been a fã of mj. I had his #1s dvd. the only thing I didnt do was follow his life. Like im a fã of usher but if ya ask me when was his last show, concerto I couldnt tell. It wasnt until after his death that i started to do research. And if ya think about it if i would of did research about him when i was younger I would only here lies. So its acually good that i did reseach after his death...lol. But yeah Mj was always in my coração and it is devistating that he is gne. Much amor Mikey
