1. He turns my stomach too, |
|
As a musician, I think he's the personification of glitz and emptiness in the music industry.
And yet, that doesn't make him guilty.

I think he's revolting and a supreme waste of gifts and talents. I also think he's a sad and deeply troubled man. And I would never presume to think I am qualified to render judgement on his guilt in this case because of some disgusting, sensational media coverage.

you'd be a racist if his blackness turned your stomach -- not his quirks

12. Blackness? Hell, CW, he's whiter than I am! |
|
And that's pretty damn white. Or in my case, not so pretty, maybe.

:hi:
Michael may deny his blackness, but if those kids are truly his, it will surely come out.
Children (mixed children) tend to inhert most of their traits from the father (when we are talking about race).

5. He doesn't turn my stomach. I pity him. |
|
He had a supremely fucked up childhood, and obviously cannot function in this world. Parents who exploit their children for money turn my stomach.

He's still a child emotionally. I hope someone has the good sense to get him some help now that this thing is over.
