Michael and Grace Rwaramba

SimplyME — Fri, 18 May 2012 23:29:18 GMT

Do you believe the rumours about them being 'together' ?

This quote from Katherine interview she just did made me think about those rumours again. Grace spoke of them like they were a couple... :hmm:

MORGAN: Was Michael happy in the end, do you think?

JACKSON: I felt he was happy. I could never -- and I always talked to the girl that was the kids' nanny, Grace. She always said -- I always said, is Michael happy because they were accusing him of all these things? And she would always say Michael had good times. We had good times together. Me and the kids and Michael, we would play.

Michael liked to run and play on the beach or whatever. And she assured me that, you know --

MORGAN: Despite everything, he managed to have a lot of happy times.

JACKSON: Uh-huh.

What is your favourite song from the HIStory Album?

hprox — Fri, 18 May 2012 00:59:00 GMT

I feel that this is one of Michael's strongest albums and it deals with a lot of important issues.

I went with TDCAU. I love the subject matter, and the guitar riff is perfect.

What is your favourite song from the Dangerous Album?

hprox — Fri, 18 May 2012 00:43:17 GMT

Hmmm...A tough choice for me since Dangerous can often take the place of my number one album...

I had to go with Black or White though. Just because it was the first song I heard of MJ's in the "modern world" so to speak. I love the guitar riff the chorus is insanely catchy, as well as having an awesome message.

By Gael Fashingbauer Cooper

Disco legend Donna Summer died Thursday at age 63, reportedly after a battle with breast cancer.

TMZ was the first to report the singer's death, and the site reports that she was recording an album at the time of her death.

The Grammy-winning singer, nicknamed the Queen of Disco, had numerous hits in both the 1970s and 1980s, including "Last Dance," "She Works Hard for the Money" and "Bad Girls."

Summer was the first female artist to chart with back-to-back multi-platinum double albums.

She appeared in the 1978 film, "Thank God It's Friday," which won the best original song Oscar for "Last Dance." Summer also appeared on the 1990s hit TV show "Family Matters."

Summer won five Grammy Awards and six American Music Awards, and charted three multi-platinum albums.

She is survived by her husband, three daughters, and four grandchildren.

Graphics Competitions!

bowtiesarecool — Thu, 17 May 2012 13:02:59 GMT

I think it would be cool to have graphics competitions to win songs and so on! You could ask us to design a single cover or an alternative album cover or something, or perhaps the best picspam! Then the admins/mods could narrow it down to 5 and we could have a vote on which one wins. :D

What do you think? Bit of creative fun! :dance:

Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson and Neon Fur: The Scene at Nest Last Night

MJ Is My Music — Wed, 16 May 2012 19:54:53 GMT

We celebrated the one-year anniversary of D Home�s blog with a bit of a bash at Nest last night (photos of the scene forthcoming), and, being the decor obsessed gal that I am, I arrived early so the ever dapper Donald could show me some of his latest finds.

I was not disappointed, as there are some mighty good finds populating the shelves. Highlights include the blown-out �kitchen� section filled with organic wood serving platters, hefty ceramics, and a trove of gorgeous cookbooks; loads of room transforming pillows (including those neon Springbok numbers above) and colorful, chunky throws; local photographer Sibylle Bauer�s gorgeous painterly photographs; clever kids gifts; and ample shots of brass and copper and gold to glam things up.

All amazing stuff for sure, but I stopped in my tracks when I spied the hand-crafted jute bags embroidered with the visages of Sigmund Freud, Amy Winehouse, Adam & Eve, and a young Michael Jackson. Donald had them created especially for Nest by artisans in Paris, and only two of each were made. They are wholly unique, incredibly cool, and only $165. I want one in the worst possible way.

Michael Jackson's Mother Katherine Misses Him"Every Day,Believes She'll"See Him Again

MJ Is My Music — Mon, 14 May 2012 22:36:44 GMT

It's been nearly three years since the tragic death of Michael Jackson, but not a day goes by that his mother, Katherine Jackson, doesn't mourn for her son.

"Every morning, all through the day, I think about Michael," she said on Monday night's Piers Morgan Tonight. "If I wake up through the night, my mind is there."

When Morgan asked if she'd ever "get over" her son's death, she replied, "Never."

"I just miss him," she added. "But being a Christian and believing in resurrection, I feel that I'll see him again."

She then became teary, apologizing for getting choked up. "I'm sorry," she said. Morgan told her it was "perfectly understandable," and he couldn't "imagine a worse thing" than a parent having to bury his or her own child.

"It's so unnatural, isn't it?" he asked.

"Yes, it is," Katherine, 82, replied.

After Michael passed away, Katherine became the guardian of his three children: Prince, 15; Paris, 14; and Blanket, 9. Katherine Jackson's complete interview with Piers Morgan airs Monday at 9 p.m. on CNN.

Q&A with Lisa Marie Presley

MJ Is My Music — Sun, 13 May 2012 20:20:55 GMT

Lisa Marie Presley's early attempts at breaking into the family business were overshadowed by the family legacy - she is, after all, the only child of Elvis, ex-wife of both Michael Jackson and Nicolas Cage, and survivor of a chemically enhanced childhood. But after taking some seven years out of the limelight to find her footing, Presley returns this week with the excellent T Bone Burnett-produced album "Storm and Grace," a vintage-sounding set of songs that gives her rich, bluesy voice the showcase it deserves. The first single, "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet," is out now. She talked to us at a playground near her home in Los Angeles.

Q: Why did it take you seven years to do your third album?

A: I was exorcising demons. Shedding skin. I went through a lot of things. I got rid of everything I ever knew - people, things, labels. I just went through a whole whitewash and then I woke up and went through a processing period, moved to England and had some children.

Q: In a way this feels like the first serious album you have ever made. How does it feel to find yourself at 44?

A: In the past I was always pushed in the pop arena. I was never a pop star. I've always been a singer-songwriter. There was so much business going on and torture by the previous label. It was a constant battleground. It was never right. It was so not my nature. This is more who I am, without question.

Q: Did you feel like you were pushed into being a pop star in the first place because of your father and the family name or is it something you genuinely wanted to do?

A: I was always in the mirror with the microphone since I was 2 or 3. It's just that I'm a singer-songwriter. It's what I've always been. But with my former label I was constantly battling something. I could feel it. I wanted to hide behind a lot of production. It was safer. This is where I'm at in my life more.

Q: The good thing about the first two records is that everyone got over the novelty of you making records.

A: You're exactly right. It was a blessing. This time, I want the music to speak louder than my life or anything else that's spoken - not anything else I've done or my life. I did all those talk shows that were really uncomfortable and talked about the things I didn't want to. I feel like I paid my dues.

Q: Now you can let your daughter Riley Keough (star of the new movie "Jack and Diane") take it all on.

A: Oh, God. She's much more together than I ever was. {sbox}
