HAYYYYY!! OK ........ While the Jackson ceremony was going on and on and on at work, and while I was making some constructive "comments," a co-worker suggested that I might be a little insensitive. ME?? Insensitive?? What are you talking about??
BUTTTTTTTT, since we are on the subject of the Jackson ceremony, I had a few questions:
1. Besides Mariah, Janet, and maybe Usher, where were all the BIG names? I know that Madonna is on tour overseas, but what about Prince? Oprah? Bill and Hill Clinton? Elton John? That guy from Webster? Not to mention, MJ's diva trio, Miss Ross, Elizabeth Taylor and Liza? I think it is very telling that Miss Ross, of all people, was not there.
2. I'm sure that kid who was a finalist on Britain's Got Talent, is incredibly gifted. But what happened Tito?? Was Sanjaya busy? Besides Mariah, didn't the Jacksons know anyone more famous to perform? No Justin Timberlake. No Miley. No Beyonce [maybe since she is on tour, but you could have at least gotten Solange!].
3. And speaking of Miss Mariah ........ Am I the only one who thinks she looked suspiciously pregnant in that dress? Remember how J-Lo [why wasn't she at this shin-dig] denied she was pregnant, while wearing loose fitting, high waisted skirts? And once again, was I the only one who was worried that Jennifer Hudson might have her baby on that stage today?
4. Another co-worker asked a golden question ....... who is paying for all this hoopla?
5. But all these questions and concerns are just petty thoughts when we come to LaToya. Toy-Toy, Toy-Toy, what is with that hat? I know the video above is about MJ's daughter, but this one of the few pics I could find of LaToya's hat. Do not get me wrong, I love this hat. I WANT this hat. But Toy, what have you gotten hid up under there? And why can we only see half of your face?
In my opinion, LaToya is the ultimate Jackson! If you want a truly moving and life affirming read, rush to your nearest second or third hand bookstore [because no library is going to be seen with this book] and purchase her autobiography, LATOYA. Prepare to be moved many times!
Meanwhile, back at the Hall of Justice ........

Paying for it all? Who knows? Did they sell tix for today? And once they package the CD of today's event, it will pay for itself in minutes. Sad but the true stuff of entertainment and marketing.
