This is one of my favorite quotes from Michael Jackson " What happened to the truth? Did it go out of style". That is definitely a great question, because a long time ago the media used to build your career up and appreciate you for what you did and treat you with respect, but now all they do is bring people up just so they can knock them down harder. That quote also reminds me of New york fashion week, and how the clothes go in and out of style all of the time. That seems to be how the truth in the entertainment industry goes as well. But as we all know ; what goes out of style can always come back in. As Michael has said "The truth always prevails."
We may be in an era of lies now but I truly believe that things will circle back around to the beginning and the truth will start to become more favorable to hear to the public. I mean who wants to be lied to? Wouldn't you rather always know the truth and hard facts about your favorite celebrities and other people instead of hearing different unproven lies week after week? I always wondered at what point did the media and other people just turn around and decide to be so cruel. I can never understand how they could be so ruthless and attempt to ruin Michael's life and career. You can say it's jealousy, you can say its envy; but I feel its something even deeper than that. Just the inner need to bring people down to their level to make themselves feel better. They enjoy the feeling of trying to turn Somebody into a Nobody!!
I've recently noticed that people seem to like to watch other people live their lives. Which I think is the reason why we buy tabloids and watch T.V and movies, but it seems as if there was a point where the movie of Michael's life got too perfect and safe from the media's point of view ; and so they decided to remake his life themselves and put their own version of drama and conflict in it. If Michael was his own "movie" controller, everything would have been the truth from start to finish. You wouldn't have had to read about so many rumors, hear so many lies, and question the truth. So now I just think its up to the fans to re-edit that "movie", and put it right back to where it was supposed to be. Michael may be gone, but his legacy is not. It will never be too late to get the truth out and put all of the lies to rest.
