Many of you have asked for me to share the recent argument project that I did in my college course class for Language and Composition - "The Price of Fame: An Analysis of Michael Jackson's Innocence". Not only did I receive a score of 100 on this presentation, but I fully converted my professor from believing MJ was guilty to now believing wholeheartedly that he was innocent. Seeing that this presentation has been an effective way of distributing the other side of the story, I kindly ask that if you use any of this book to recount or defend Michael Jackson, that either I am credited for the text or at least the given source is credited. This project took countless hours and sleepless nights. Rankings: #1 in "notguilty" #1 in "mjinnocent"

How can you turn your life around when you seem to have nothing left? This is the question that thirty-year-old Michael asks himself every single day. Picture the scene. It's the summer of 1989. Freshly divorced, and with his five-year-old son in tow, Michael sets off for England in a bid to start a new life. The poor soul has been through it all in the last few years - falling in love and marrying young; welcoming a new addition to a broken family; and facing the harsh realities of being a single father to a child whose mother wants no part of parenthood. If Michael were to describe his life, he would use two colours: red and black. Through all the love and passion he had with his ex-wife, there were plenty of dark times to make up for it. But, by the same token, he may just find something else to bring a little colour back into his greyscale life ... • • • Please note: Michael is NOT famous in this story.

☆ 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟙 𝕄𝕁𝔽𝔸𝕤 𝕎𝕀ℕℕ𝔼ℝ ☆ 𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘣𝘺 𝘈𝘙𝘊𝘐 𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝟏𝟗𝟖𝟕. The decade of decadence is meeting its end quicker than Claudia Fox can imagine. After a tumultuous childhood and dangerous upbringing in the clubs of Los Angeles, she has mastered her artistic craft, having cemented herself in the history of rock music as 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐚. But when the delirium of stardom leaves her no place to hide the truth, she continuously falls to substances, and refuels the maniacal stage persona that critics once adored. After years of being withdrawn from the big stage due to unhealthy sobriety, Claudia has uncovered new grounds of the human psyche: complete and utter hysteria. Unable to stay afloat in the painful estrangement, Columbia Records and her troubled producer send the superstar on the most perilous journey of her life. A journey that will result in her biggest album yet. But for Michael Jackson, that journey has already started. As ferocious tabloids continue to rip at his seams, the pop phenomenon embarks on a two-year-long trip around the world to promote his long-awaited album. Michael's own struggle with severe anxiety and loneliness prove to hinder his belonging in this world, and his monstrous estate is not making matters any better. Nevertheless, it is the very schemes that his manager pulls together that allows the stars to align for these two disturbed entertainers. Love and fame both come at a great cost. No matter how painful it can be. ☆...

Have you ever wondered what would Michael Jackson's life look like if some events didn't happen to him? If he had someone he trusted by his side through everything? Someone that had the power to save him from his tormented life? Hayley "Brit" Thames has the power to change Michael Jackson's future, and without knowing it, he has the power to make her love life again after something terrible happened to her. But nothing is that easy when fate is playing against you. *** "Here! I'm here," I exclaimed, as I found my way through the sea of people, ignoring the fact that my head was more and more aching as time passed by. "Ah, here she is," Carl smiled, and put his hand on my lower back. "Mr. Jackson, please meet Hayley Thames, one of the most passionate doctor I've ever met," he adressed the superstar who had Bethany on his lap. "Pleased to meet you," Michael Jackson smiled, standing up. He offered me his hand for me to shake it. "I've heard only great things about you so far." "I'm glad," I answered back, faking a smile, as the pain in my head was becoming unbearable. "N-Nice to meet you too, sir." At the second my hand made contact with his, my eyes couldn't see, my ears couldn't hear, my limbs couldn't move. It's like I was drowning in an ocean of images of him, of flashes I couldn't understand with people I didn't know. The only thing that seemed to be there, omnipresent, was him, Michael Jackson. It's like I could feel him invading my mind, like he was taking place in there without my approval. And then, nothing. Nothing but darkness.
