Was Michael Jackson Over-Medicating Himself On Purpose?

It's pretty clear that Michael Jackson was taking too many meds at the time of his death... but the real question is why?

MJ had 50 - yes, 50 - concerts in London coming up. His big comeback tour that was going to bring back in the money for him and everyone around him. But he had to have been feeling the pressure to perform, right?

Michael was so hopped up on drugs and his health was so poor, it seems highly unlikely that he could've made good on all fifty concert dates. So is that what pushed Jacko over the edge?

Maybe he made the commitment to perform due to of all his money problems, while secretly believing he'd never be able to follow through. Such a sad explanation... but what other reason is there?



Hopefully now he can just rest in peace...

Jesus Christ! Could we just PLEASE WAIT for the GD toxicology report?

Michael would not commit suicide if thats the point of this article. He loved his 3 kids and all his family and his fans

I love MJ, but addicts don't care when they need drugs.

Why don't people lay off of the man! He did our world alot of good. watch the man in the mirror video, and we are the world video. I honestly think his hard times came when he fell off the stage and broke his leg and then he did the pepsi commercial where he caught on fire. Dont know about the rest of you but that would have scared me to no end. And to be that shy and build yourself an amusement park and invite kids from all over the world to enjoy it, how can you go wrong. i agree with lmp, he had a heart of gold and all he wanted to do was make kids happy until the leeches and vampires took over. I STILL TO THIS DAY DO NOT BELIEVE HE EVER MOLESTED ANY CHILD. he gave us all he had and it was a wonderful thing to share. R.I.P. Michael and may your children prosper from what you taught them for the short time you were with them

Rest in peace. Just saw his wife's account on wealthy men personals site """""W e a l t h y R o m a n c e . c o m"""""" last week. I am wondering what kind of relationship she is looking for on that site.

How in the hell did Michael Jackson do the world a lot of good, its not like he
invented a serum that would cure anything.

Michael Jackson was a talented entertainer, AND THATS IT! and also a
disturbed individual.

and as far as his father whipping his azz when he was young, HEY stand in line cause a lot of folks got the same thing as Michael and did not go over the edge, Joe Jackson made his sons RICH, with discipline and HARD work.

Michael Jackson was a victim and was always going to be a victim, he was not the type to take responsibility for ANYTHING, and because most of the country was thinking of him as the "second coming" it went to his head and some people started bowwing down to him, he never grew up because he didn't want to, why grow up and take the responsibility of being an adult when you don't have to.

Michael knew what he was doing at all times even at the time of his death, he knew he could not do 5 dates let alone 50 so why not go out a martyr.
RIP Micheal

Right now there is alot of hearsay and speculation. Let's wait until all the facts are in. There has already been evidence recently and in the past of MJ's pain killer addiction. For now can we just all give the truth time to surface and the family time to heal and do what they need to for his kids??



Posted by: Anonymouse

If reading about a deceased drug addict and child molester who hired criminals to intimidate the families and his staff, offends your sensibilities - don't read. The rest of us will decide what we want to discuss.

OK!!!!!! HATERS ,BEAT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Soooooooooo what you're implying is that instead of just NOT doing the dates that he signed for, he killed himself leaving his kids alone? If he was gonna off himself, there were a LOT of other things that happened that would have drove him to that place. He had to have a full physical before being insured to tour so he wasn't all that frail and he had a doctor LIVING with him to tend to his medical needs. I don't get what X17 is implying but it's ridiculous to speculate, you dumb asses.



Posted by: Anonymous

wow can't even believe this site would insinuate something like this. one other thing i noticed is that this site rarely post articles on black celebs. whats up with that? the one celeb you choose to report on, MJ, is pure negativity. so sad but typical of the white press!



Posted by: Man in the Mirror

Those saying he was a "rapist" and a child molester: How did MJ manage to do all that and not ever get convicted despite a trial? And how could he manage to be the sole parent to three kids if he was such a terrible man around kids? The ONLY court that EVER convicted Michael Jackson was the court of public opinion. There is not now and never was any evidence that he actually did anything sexual with kids. Yes, he had a strange connection with kids. But saying he was a rapist is simply a ridiculous and stupid assumption by ridiculous and obviously uneducated individuals.

Um, the coroner's reports all stated that he was in excellent health. Where do you get this crap?

he made his kids wear mask in public.....enough said....he was crazy



Posted by: Dave

Michael made his children wear masks for many reasons, one of which is the fact that if you saw their face you would know Michael was not their birth father. Even without their face being visible I can tell that.

But he was their father and I hope they are allowed to grow up with the happiness Michael didn't have.

Rest in peace MJ. You were the best!

Michael Jackson was a pedophile. He victimized the 'Lost Boys' twice. First, the boys were sexually violated. Second, he threatened their safety. Two children were able to identify distinctive markings on the pedophile’s genitals. He used his wealth to employ former private investigator and convicted felon Anthony Pellicano, Nation of Islam bodyguards and South-Central L.A. gangs to intimidate the families and his staff and prevent them from testifying in criminal court. It also served to frighten other families from coming forward. The pedophile settled the Chandler’s civil lawsuit BEFORE the criminal trial was scheduled to begin and AFTER he began terrorizing witnesses. Some of you may not care about children’s rights or think witness intimidation is not a serious crime but I and others do. I refuse to mourn the loss of a pedophile. My only regret is he did not die in prison. Anyone who thinks or feels differently should free to continuing weeping for a pedophile.

Check out "Michael the Narc-Angel" on engines like MSN, Google, etc. Another interesting web bit is titled "Bible Verses Obama Avoids."
