If you think about it, everyone who knew MJ personally like Gladys, friends etc. had really positive things to say about him because thats what they saw & got to know about him. Yet when the media takes one little thing because he's a really big superstar, they exaggerate it or LIE to sell a story...because he is MICHAEL JACKSON.. Remember him for the talent he shared with us because thats what he gave to us, not what the media made about him and fed to those that are ignorant.
Michael gave so much of himself and everything he had, as if he owed the world. The way I see it, the world owes Michael a ton. He provided us with music and entertainment we will never again see in this lifetime.
Musical royalty speaking on musical royalty. Empress of Soul Gladys Knight and King of Pop Michael Jackson. Gladys speaks so lovingly, caringly and regally.
I also cry all the time thinking about Michael 😂😂😂😂, I wish I can feel this way with my family members that passed....Michael was indeed an Angel on earth 💔💔
accolades must also go to this 'phenomenal' woman/icon...we can be sure that any hours Michael spent with Gladys were warm and loving...She shared her glorious (untarnished) gifts from a very young age also, and is one of the few remaining legends we can turn to for clarity in re-telling, rather than re-writing history. As we are inundated with MJ revelations, it is the amazing work left for us that matters most. It cost him his life here, but its brilliance will outlive all critics.
He is genius he is humanitarian he is still the king of pop, rock and soul NO MATTER WHAT MEDIA or SUPIDIOT PEOPLE SAY!!! I love you MJ more and miss you more!
Gladys you are a wonderful woman! I have always loved your songs. Now I love you more! Thank you for the great words you said about our Angel! Michael we will always love you...
My goodness, I just love her! She looks like an African Goddess and she's pushing into her seventies, looking just as beautiful and sounding better than ever! Few knew that Gladys was the true founder of the Jacksons and how close she was to the family! Thank you Gladys for adding another element that shows the world that Michael was a very beautiful human being!
My Friend Gladys Thank you for saying them kind words about michael and yes we all try to reach out..but like you said lets not focus on the wrong and the past.but focus on the accolades of his life on how happy and wounderful he made us feel through his music.. I love you Bless you!! my dear friend Gladys. From Phoenix Long time friend of the jackson family
Very well said, Gladys! Thank you for bringing Michael goodness to light. Many people didn't know him behind his songs and dances. He gave us so much and yet so many the so-called human beings were ready to destroy him.
Wow .....I was refreshed by what she had to say. Its much more and is worthwhile when someone who was unjaded and knew him personally can share moments like this. None of us will ever know what he had to go thru as silly as it may have sounded from his mouth. This represents the closest thatt we can ever come to the proof and understanding his genius and desperation to simply live. Thanks Gladys
Great to see Gladys and so nice to hear her speak so movingly of the fab MJ. Miss you , Michael. Coming to see you, Gladys, in Wembley on Oct 9th.....can't wait.
What a graceful woman. I, personally, have mixed thoughts about MJ, but I was only a fan; I didn't know him. What's great to see is someone who knew MJ from the start and maintained the same level of humanity and respect to the end. That holds more weight than anything.
Thanks Gladys had he more people like yourself ,E.Talor,&Q.Jones around him he'd be here with us today.Alot had happen because alot was going on inside him from his childhood till the end.I seen him live and would love to see you on stage
Gladys Knights interview on MJ is simply fantastic.A real woman at that.It gives u a better insight in who Michael really was..We need to focus on his accolades and what he gave the world. God bless you Gladys.
I just love Glady's. She is so sincere and unasumming. She discovered the Jackson 5 and she never takes the acalade because its just not her, she doesn't need to. They knew and she knew and that pissing miss Ross sat there and allowed to be named as their founder because she (Ross) was doing Mr Gordy's 'Spread Sheets!' which lead to her 'love child!' with Gordy. Confirmed by Jermain in an interview.
i hate it how all these ppl acted like they were his closest friends after he died but when he was alive they would go shhh when they heard his name. I think of these ppl being MJs real friends (these ppl didnt do a interview rite after he died either): diana ross, chris tucker, stevie wonder, liz taylor, brooke shields and barry gordy.
I'm glad ms. Gladys kept it positive even though she discovered them and they worked for the same label at least she did reach out to him and offer him to come and stay with her.. he needed a family and genuine love...she just spoke about him and who he was she didnt act like she was there every step of the way but she made it clear that he was welcome honestly diana ross wasnt there for him as much as she should have been ... liz and Chris tucker to me were his only real friends and maybe mccauley... although I will admit mj was a giver and I recognize when someone crawls into their shell they push people away and they dont know who to trust he went into exile and tried to trust who he could he changed his number constantly because it's what he felt he needed to do... so it doesnt mean people werent reaching out to him sometimes people honestly dont know how to help you... he wanted to save the world and heal the world he wanted us to be kind he wanted to lead by example and it's obvious he couldn't do it alone they wore him out and killed his spirit and betrayed his trust by the time people realized he needed help it probably was to late. ...
Thankyou Gladys and thankyou Michael. I didn't tell you how much we love you when you were alive, I had no way to. I hope you know now - - we love you most.
@Dare2drm37 I agree with you on your comment. A lot of people in the media thought MJ didn't have any friends in Hollywood who loved and supported him during the trial. He did but most of them didn't go public about it because the media during that time were all about any negative stories. They few who went public to defend him in interviews were cut off by interviews...they don't even let them finish their defense of MJ. MJ had real friends and I'm glad Gladys Knight was one of them.
@George007Kelley You are a beautiful and insightful person who knows the true meaning of spirit and humanity. Being an avid michael fan since i was 3 and loving him even now 25 years later i have never given up hope knowledge and faith in our dear departed friend. I never knew him personally but has touched our lives and those who truly paid attention were his true fans and they knew him more than any media could ever talk trash about. Bless you my friend.....Bless you.
@George007Kelley I remember spending months on the internet with not only fans but friends and family of Mj's discussing the trials and worried about how biased the media was and how incredibly prejudice the system is in Santa Barbara county. We were disgusted by the lies and rumors being spread by not just the tabloid media but by the news media, how can people who were just supposed to "report" the news live with themselves after destroying a mans life like that? But you are so right.
gladys is so right! everybody should respect michael and his family at this point in time. i hope people (his followers or not...) will give the jackson family the privacy they need and the time to mourn over the death of their dearly beloved michael. RIP michael, all my prayers are with you.
All I have to say is watch and read about how J Edgar Hoover tried to DISCREDIT the great MARTIN LUTHER KING and the lengths he went to because he was getting TOO POWERFUL. THE SAME DAMN THING HAPPENED TO MICHAEL. There are a lot of people with blood on their hands. Y'ALL KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!! GOD NEVER SLEEPS
micheal jackson the king of pop. a lot of people evpect so from him he was under so much purere from his fan from his familys from every on so i guess he just give up ans startinng taking durgs. ho god hewant to sleep so bad he just want to sleep. the world must all rember him for his greats but at lest he get his wish he is reating
CHASE THE TRUTH. The new documentary by Michael's family and other people, hitting back with facts not just graphic details to pull the viewers in. Watch it then make your own mind up.
welcome to the wonderful world called american showbusiness. this is the type of social behaviour they teach on the tube in the states today....... sometimes the enemy is right in front of you .........
