Michael Jackson is a genius in the history of world music.
He debuted at the age of five and became famous at the age of eight. As soon as he became famous, he showed unusual musical talent.
Someone has done statistics and said that one out of every seven people in the world is his fan.
And the standard of Jackson's concert is not sound cards and dancers, but rows of ambulances.
Because every concert, a large number of audience will faint because of too much excitement and excitement.
I don't know how many artists dream of this kind of influence.
However, such a world-class musical genius had been at the bottom of his life for more than ten years before his death.
Not only are there few works, but even their reputation has plummeted.
Many people call him "freak", "pervert" and even "devil".
So, what caused Jackson's reputation and even his life to change so much?
Some people say that all this is related to two "Luan Zi cases".
We have to start with Jackson's "Dangerous Journey" tour.
1 99210 June1day, Jackson held a "dangerous tour" concert at the Romanian national stadium in Gales.
It is said that there were 70,000 spectators at the scene, and 5,000 fans were carried away because they were too excited.
During the tour, except Bucharest, fans in other parts of the world are counting the days by snapping their fingers.
On August 24th, 1993, the fans gathered in Bangkok finally looked forward to Jackson.
However, the day after he was expected to come, the concert was cancelled because Jackson was dehydrated because of fatigue.
The body can't stand it, and then continue to play when the body is better.
But after waiting and waiting, one after another, strange things are confusing.
Six days later, on August 30th, Jackson's "Dangerous Journey" concert in Singapore was cancelled.
The reason is Jackson's migraine.
65438+1October 2 1, the concert in Santiago, Chile was cancelled.
The reason is Jackson's back pain.
165438+1The concert in Mexico City was cancelled on October 2nd.
The reason is that Jackson has a toothache.
165438+1October 1 1, the whole tour plan was cancelled.
I heard that all the tours were cancelled, and the fans were very anxious and speculated about the reasons.
Just when the fans were anxious to get angry, Jackson came out and explained, "I am suffering from drug dependence because of unfair accusations." I had to stop playing and get treatment. "
Accusation? Whose accusation?
1In August, 1993, 13-year-old boy jordy chandler accused Jackson of sexually assaulting him.
This accusation is cruel. If convicted, Jackson may lose everything.
So, what's the problem between Jackson and the boy?
Things have to start from Jackson's Neverland.
1988, Jackson bought 2800 mu of farm in Santa Barbara County, California, USA, and named it Neverland.
In this huge manor, there are not only bumper cars, ferris wheels and carousels, but also artificial lakes, zoos, cinemas and other entertainment facilities.
Although this is Jackson's own mansion, he wants to turn it into a lively amusement park.
And his purpose is to make up for childhood regrets.
Jackson debuted at the age of 5, and became the youngest single champion singer in America at the age of 14.
Jackson is proud of having wealth and fame that ordinary people can't reach at a young age.
However, the rich and famous Jackson was not happy.
Because when his peers were enjoying their childhood, he recorded songs in the recording studio or participated in various performances.
Jackson once said in a performance: "I have no childhood at all, no Christmas, no birthday, it is not a normal childhood, and there is no joy that a normal childhood can enjoy." Instead, it is hard work, struggle and pain, and finally it will lead to material and career success. But I paid a heavy price, because I could never rebuild this life. "
The lack of childhood became a lifelong regret for Jackson. In order to make up for this regret, he spent a lot of money to build this manor and opened it to children all over the world for free.
Especially those poor children who are sick, can come to the manor for free and even live with Jackson.
It is said that many children sentenced to death by doctors have miraculously recovered after living with him for a period of time.
13-year-old jordy chandler is one of them.
There are so many children who have been to Neverland, why only Jody jumped out and accused Jackson of sexual assault?
1992 In May, Jackson and Jody's family met.
At that time, because Jody was suffering from cancer, Jackson naturally took care of him more.
Before long, the two sides became like a family.
But at this time, the National Investigator, an American gossip newspaper, released a message that Jackson adopted Jody.
Supposedly, this kind of adoption, the parties themselves know.
But this public adoption statement made evan Chandler, the father of the child, jealous.
He felt that Jackson's influence on Jody had far exceeded that of his own father.
Later, the media reported that Jackson often slept in the same bed with the children.
This makes evan Chandler, who is already unbalanced, even more unhappy.
So evan Chandler, tortured by jealousy, decided to sue Jackson with his son.
In this way, the first child molestation case began.
Some people think it is too kind to accuse Jackson of sexual assault based on some gossip.
Although I don't know what evan Chandler's motive is and what kind of evidence he can produce, he did take Jackson to court.
In the face of the accusation, Jackson shook his head and smiled bitterly during the trial. He obviously denied doing such a thing.
At the same time, his fans came out to defend him, saying that Jackson had written so many good songs and helped so many children that he could not have done such a dirty thing.
In addition, hundreds of children who have been to Neverland also jointly supported Jackson, saying that he had never done anything improper to them.
A reporter once asked a child, "Don't you think it's wrong to sleep with him several times all night?"
The child replied, "No, because I sleep at one end of the bed and he sleeps at the other."
The children's testimony began to turn the situation in Jackson's favor.
At this time, however, Jackson made a decision that surprised everyone.
He wants to reconcile with Jody's family at the cost of $22 million.
Although Jackson is not short of money, at this time, it is hard to say and ugly to use money to solve problems.
This can't help but make people wonder why he broke the money and avoided disaster. Did he really do something shameful? Or is there something else?
Later, Jackson said in a video: "I was forced to accept an inhuman and insulting physical examination by the Santa Barbara Town Justice Bureau and the Los Angeles Police Department. They showed me a search warrant and forced me to take pictures with them, taking pictures of my buttocks and the whole lower body, including the root of my thigh. They just take pictures wherever they want. The search warrant further stipulates that I have no right to refuse. If I don't cooperate with this inspection, they will refuse it, which will prove me guilty. This is the most humiliating experience in my life, and this experience is simply unbearable. "
Jackson's meaning is obvious. He didn't want to accept this humiliating inspection, so he spent money purely.
But can spending a lot of money really buy peace?
The answer is definitelyno. After all, as long as the money comes out, the taste of the whole thing will change.
Although Jackson and Jody's family have temporarily stopped entanglement, there are more and more doubts about Jackson.
Some people say that Jackson is guilty, otherwise why not prove his innocence by judicial means?
Others said, does Jackson really care about children? He's not a pedophile, is he?
Faced with endless doubts, Jackson chose to get married.
1994, Jackson married lisa marie presley, daughter of American rock king Elvis Presley.
However, this marriage ended in divorce after only two years, and the reasons for the divorce are unknown.
But it is speculated that Lisa refused to have children for Jackson.
Shortly after the divorce, Jackson married Deborah Rowe, a nurse.
They gave birth to a son and a daughter together, but divorced three years later.
After the divorce, Jackson did not find a new marriage partner, but gave birth to a third child through surrogacy technology.
Perhaps many people will think that Jackson got married just to have children.
It is not too arbitrary to say that Jackson doesn't want a happy marriage.
But Jackson chose to get married at this time in order to prove that his sexual orientation is normal.
However, getting married and having children not only failed to restore his reputation, but also attracted more negative news.
For example, someone said that he wanted to turn white, so he bleached his skin.
Some people say that his nose is different from before, and he must have had plastic surgery.
Even once, because the media photographed Jackson shaking his third child on the balcony of a hotel in Berlin, Germany, many people called him "psycho", "pervert" and "devil".
From the star that attracted much attention, it instantly became a "pervert" that everyone spurned, and it simply fell from heaven to hell.
However, in fact, the so-called skin whitening is just that he has vitiligo.
As for swinging children on the balcony, he actually waved and greeted everyone.
So Jackson was naturally unconvinced by the outside rumors and decided to do one more thing to save his reputation.
He invited the famous journalist Martin Barschel to help him make a documentary.
In his early years, Martin Barschel was just an obscure little reporter.
1995, became famous for exposing Princess Diana's extramarital affairs.
This time, Jackson invited Barschel to his Neverland, hoping that he could live with the children and record his real life, thus changing the public's view of himself.
Eight months later, the documentary was finally completed, and it was called "Living with Michael Jackson".
However, when the documentary aired, Jackson immediately realized that the documentary made by Barschel might ruin him.
In the documentary, Barschel asked himself and answered: "Many questions remain unresolved. He denied plastic surgery, his problems with the child's mother, and the problem of the child staying in Neverland. It is not easy to question him, but there is no other way. When preparing for the visit, the atmosphere was extremely tense. Jackson brought his own lighting engineer, apparently to deal with the thorny plastic surgery problem. "
Barschel's remarks, in my opinion, not only didn't help Jackson clarify any problems, but made Jackson mysterious, complicated and even hypocritical.
There are still some places in this documentary that Jackson thinks are unrealistic.
For example, every time he shows up in public with his son and daughter, he makes them wear masks.
Barschel said in the documentary that Jackson overprotected his children, which seriously affected the relationship between Jackson and his ex-wife Debbie.
Jackson vaguely felt that after the film was broadcast, he might be pushed to the forefront again.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before Jackson went to court again.
There is a story in the documentary about a boy named Gavin Avizeau who was diagnosed with terminal cancer. The doctor said he wouldn't live for three months.
In order not to regret it, Gavin hoped to see Jackson before he died. With the help of caring people, Gavin finally met Jackson.
Moreover, he also created a miracle of life. In the process of getting along with Jackson, the cancer cells in Gavin's body disappeared.
It was a good thing, but Barschel highlighted the relationship between Gavin and Jackson in his report, especially the fact that they spent the night together.
Such an operation obviously complicates the whole thing.
After the documentary was broadcast, many reporters began to call to ask questions, which was unbearable for Gavin's family.
In February, 2003, an official of the Los Angeles Unified School District, after watching Barschel's documentary, thought Jackson was suspected of sexually assaulting Gavin.
So, with the cooperation of LAPD, I found the Gavins and had a talk.
Although, at that time, Gavin's family said that there was no improper contact between Gavin and Jackson.
However, a few months later, when the discussion about Jackson staying with the children became more and more intense, Gavin's mother began to contact lawyer Larry Feldman frequently.
This person is also the lawyer of jordy chandler, the plaintiff in the first child molestation case.
Because Gavin's mother is going to accuse Jackson of sexually assaulting children.
This documentary, which should have cleared Jackson's name, brought him new lawsuits.
This made him very angry. In anger, he decided to fight back.
First, he wanted to fight back against Barschel.
When Barschel filmed the documentary, Jackson also asked his photographer to follow him all the way.
By comparing the video materials, Jackson found the first inconsistency in Barschel.
The documentary Basher said: "Neverland is a disturbing place, and it is very dangerous for disadvantaged children to go there."
But in front of Jackson, he said, "No one really walked into Neverland. This is really a place full of love. "
In addition, Jackson's ex-wife Debbie also came out to defend him.
Debbie has been living in seclusion all the year round since she divorced Jackson, and has been away from the public eye.
This time, she got up the courage to stand in front of the public, mainly to help Jackson clarify some problems.
She said, "Let the children wear masks. This is my request. Michael is proud of his children. I was very scared because I saw someone leave a note saying that they would arrest my child. "
Regarding the relationship between husband and wife, Debbie said, "There are two main reasons for our separation. First, I am often followed. Secondly, newspapers and magazines are often full of nonsense. I can't take it anymore. Michael is very kind to me. "
Ladies and gentlemen, when you see this, you must understand that Barschel, a so-called famous journalist, is furious.
However, it is understood that Barschel and Jackson had no hatred in the past, and there was no hostility in recent days. Why did he frame Jackson?
Jackson thought Barschel might be working for someone else.
Jackson once said, "There is greed here. Some people are obsessed with money. I can't say who it is, but it must be related to money. "
Jackson didn't mention the mastermind behind Barschel, but he had a clear suspect.
And this suspect is Sony.
Why did Sony stab Jackson in the back?
The answer is simple, commercial interests.
At that time, Jackson was not only an artist who could sing and dance, but also one of the most powerful people in American music.
Because he owns 50% of Sony's shares, and holds the song copyrights of Beatles, Elvis Presley, Sydney Dion, Madonna and other superstars.
Jackson can get tens of millions of dollars from it every year.
Sony can't tolerate an artist who is smarter than them. They worry that once Jackson leaves solo, he will be a strong competitor.
Therefore, the company repeatedly proposed to buy copyright with Jackson, but they were all rejected.
So the company began to find ways to drag Jackson down, force him to go bankrupt, and then sell his copyright.
At this time, Jackson accepted an interview with Barschel, so he took advantage of this opportunity to make a film.
Of course, all this is Jackson's guess. We don't know how many companies or individuals want Jackson to have an accident out of envy and out of direct interests.
However, Jackson at least explained to the outside world that Barschel's documentary was suspected of distorting the facts.
Anyway, how did Jackson handle the second child molestation case?
This time, he did not choose to break the money and avoid disaster, but waited for the final judgment.
On June 13, 2005, the second child molestation case, which lasted nearly two years, was finally concluded.
The court acquitted Jackson.
At the moment of acquittal, not only Jackson breathed a sigh of relief, but even the American people who supported him cheered excitedly.
Although the lawsuit is over, many people have raised a question.
In the past few years, the United States has not been interested in sexual harassment cases.
How did you get to Jackson, but your enthusiasm increased greatly?
Even if the evidence is insufficient, the prosecutor insists on prosecution. Is there a bigger secret behind this abnormality?
Some people say that the second child molestation case may be a trick used by the US authorities to cover up a war.
Look at the big event in 2003, when Jackson was summoned by the court, the United States launched the Iraq war.
This is a war that many people are opposed to, so the authorities urgently need another thing to divert public attention.
Looking at the social situation at that time, the influential Jackson happened to be in trouble.
The authorities began to add fuel to the flames and successfully pushed the Jackson and child molestation case to the forefront.
Jackson was acquitted after the authorities achieved their goal of waging war.
In that case, no matter whether the second child molestation case is put on file for investigation or the final judgment, the traces of human manipulation are very heavy.
Is Jackson innocent or not?
On June 25th, 2009, Jackson died suddenly at the age of 50.
The cause of death was that his personal doctor Conrad Murray injected him with a large amount of propofol, which led to Jackson's heart failure.
The forensic doctor ruled that the case was homicide, and Murray had an unshirkable responsibility. Later, he was sentenced to 4 years in prison by the court for manslaughter.
On the fourth day after Jackson's death, jordy chandler, the plaintiff of the first child molestation case, confessed on the Internet: "Michael Jackson never did anything he shouldn't have done, and all his lies were to help his father get rid of poverty".
Barschel, who had deeply hurt Jackson, also stood up and said that he knew Jackson was innocent.
As mentioned above, Jackson is a clear suspect. Combining jordy chandler in the first child molestation case, Gavin Avizeau in the second child molestation case and journalist Martin Basher, this authenticity will undoubtedly be amplified.
Jackson's sister once broke the news: "My brother died in a conspiracy, and their purpose was to get my brother's legacy."
People die and walk on the moon, but in heaven.
The truth of the matter is unknown. Maybe the truth is a real and terrible secret.
Michael Jackson is gone and will never come back.
His unpleasant and even painful experience may make us understand that people should be careful and kind all their lives, but they should also learn to protect this kindness.
