Michael Jackson: a star on the outside, Mr. Lonely on the inside

If we talk about the era from 1980 to 2001, then we must say that Michael Jackson was rising as a star. From the best selling album “Thriller” to his last hit album “Invincible”, he made a different image that only he could compete with. In his stardom, everyone could see the person, who was the best entertainer on the planet but no one could see the person off stage. He was fighting the media and the ‘Michael Jackson haters’ alone. But, most amazingly, after all the false claims and litigation, he managed to keep that smile on his face.

Today, the world says that Michael Jackson lived a real life, had a lot of money, and was so perfect and happy that he could get whatever he wanted. The world needs to know that behind that spotlight was this person who was totally different from what the media portrayed.

“Stranger in Moscow”, the song that was released during the “History” Era, embodies his inner desolation and the feeling of being totally alone and deceived by his trusted ones.

“Hope is such a beautiful word, but it often seems so fragile. Life is still being needlessly hurt and destroyed,” he describes the degree of discouragement he carried with him.

During his interview with Rabbi Shmuley, who worked with Michael on the “Heal The Kids” charity, Michael himself said: “Every time I walk down the street at night, I see people looking at me and at that moment I desperately want to ask them if they want be my friends.” When Rabbi Shmuley was asked about Michael, he said that “the singer was a tortured soul.”

Certainly, he was very lonely and after being humiliated by the tabloids and paparazzi for years, he was desperate for ordinary people to become his friends. Behind that beautiful smile he always tried to hide his pain, tears, anguish, tribulation and anger at the media.

According to Dick Gregory, a comedian and family friend of Michael’s, “Michael always trusted the wrong person.” Dick also said that he advised Michael to be with his family as being alone could be too risky for him. He told her that all the people he trusted had betrayed him.

If we talk about Jorden Chandler, the boy who made the allegations of sexual abuse against Michael in 1993, what do we conclude? The bottom line is that Michael trusted the boy and his family and allowed them into his real home called “The NeverLand”. The important thing we need to know here is how did they return the favor? Well, here comes another example of how his isolation and loneliness became his own enemy.

If we talk about his marital life, also in this chapter, Michael doesn’t seem to have much luck. When he married Lisa Marrie Presley, the only daughter of Alvis Presley, he shocked the world and was very happy as can be seen from his videos and Primetime interview in 1995. But this marriage did not last long and in 1996 they divorced. . Once again, the wheel of life returned to where he began to turn. He was devastated, but somehow he showed the world his smile, showing how much stronger of heart he was.

“In his final days, Michael Jackson was paranoid, alone, and devastated by sexual abuse and child molestation,” mentioned by his former personal bodyguards, Bill Whitfield and Javon Beard in their book, “Remember The Time: Protecting Michael Jackson In His last days.”

It would not be a surprise to say that Michael Jackson was not killed by the misguided administration of the drug called Propofol, but it would be justified enough to say that it was the media and tabloids that defiled his pure and innocent image, that did the killing. him and of course! the ominous loneliness that accompanied him from the day he reached the pinnacle of Success until the day he mysteriously passed away, leaving all his fans, all over the world, in complete pain and astonishment.
