New Michael Jackson bio on its way

By Marjorie Kehe | 06.29.09

Talk about perfect timing: Small Montreal publisher TransitMedia will “start the presses rolling” tomorrow morning with a new biography of Michael Jackson titled “Michael Jackson: The Last Days,” reports Canwest News Service. The book’s author is Ian Halperin, an investigative journalist who has also written about Celine Dion and Kurt Kobain. 

The book had been planned to coincide with Jackson’s upcoming series of 50 London concerts. But when the pop star died unexpectedly last week, the author launched on a “frantic rewrite” of the book’s last 50 pages, publisher Pierre Turgeon told Canwest.

Apparently the book had already been titled “Michael Jackson: The Last Days.”

Michael Jackson stole my heart when I was a teen, and the radio announcer said, listen to this new group. The lead singer is only 6 years old. The name of the group is the Jacksons, and the name of the song is Big Boy.
Michael sung that song like a professional singer. His verbratta was done quith mezmerizing rare talent, without a flaw, and later we learned he could dance as well.
Michael Jacson was a child prodigy, that was forced on to him, and no one really caring about his mental status.
They did not allow 6 year old Michael to be a child.
As we all grew up, listening to The Jackson 5, Michael still was in search of a childhood he never got to live, as he did name his mansion Neverland, and he knew he could never return there, but he could excape to those times whenever he could.
I am sure in his personal memoirs we will find out all about the people who misused, and abused him to help create the man Michael turned out to be. Once these people are exposed, then everyone will see the life Michael Jackson had thrusted upon him, as he did all he could to provide joy to anyone and everyone who could appreciate his contribution to mankind. I pray he does rest in peace. I love Michael Jackson and I think his demise was an accident.
