The King is Back



Ok well...maybe not back back as in here.  But Michael Jackson is definitely back in the memestream. 

I just returned from Las Vegas yesterday where I saw Cirque du Soleil's MJ Immortal tribute show to the King of Pop and got my picture taken with another King, a young Elvis look-a-like. 

So I figured this would be the perfect time to blog about several MJ-related news stories I've seen floating across the headlines recently.

Last week on 12/6, the TV show 'Glee' announced it would be doing a huge MJ tribute episode on January 24th.

[Subsequently setting the gleek universe (of which I am a part) all a-twitter.]


Then there's the super weird.

In perfect sync with my casino-filled trip apparently some strands of MJ's hair are being turned into a roulette ball. Wtf?


And on Thursday 12/15 MJ's daughter Paris Jackson will be appearing on The Ellen Show


Some bits and pieces of the interview were released early.  Most notably:

Ellen: The most memorable thing that your Dad said to you was… 

Paris: He said, 'If I die tomorrow, always remember what I told you.' I took his advice and I remembered everything he told me.

UPDATE:
Saturday, 12/18/11:

"Auctions were standing room only...and drew bidders from around the world."

Julien's (Julian=Son of Jupiter=Son of Jack=Jackson) hosted an international pawing over a dead King's things. And just in time for Christmas.

  1. Remember the MJ death nexus? Farrah Fawcett (faucet), Billy Mays (Oxi Clean). Someone opened the floodgates.
