Just to be fair, these people didn't met MJ until 1985 & he didn't announce he had vitiligo until his Oprah interview in 1993. Considering how insane & vicious the media were towards MJ then (believe me I know, I was a teenager in the '80's), I think these people spoke kindly of him. They admired his talent & felt sympathy for his obvious shyness. As for the guy who had a vague resemblance to Sneddon....no fair! He wasn't that ugly & I wouldn't wish those looks on my worst enemy! Anyway, don't get upset. I've been a fan of MJ for 36yrs & love him dearly. You have a great day :)

Hi Kerryn, l have just had another listen, and l have to admit, that l felt a bit uneasy that they chose to share all this on the day of his passing. It was a very interesting story, but not really the appropriate time for most of it to be shared. Also disappointed with Mrs Holmes A'Courts attitude, as she was telling her story, l have always thought of her as a very dignified, and kind lady, and would have expressed herself a little more appropriately for such a sad day. But it was really lovely to read your very gracious and reasonable attitude to it all. It horrifies me to this day, to be reminded of the persecution Michael suffered, just for being a bit different from the norm. l have actually created a playlist on all the evidence that revealed his innocence, after that horrendous court case he was put thru'.

allymayful They could have chosen to say nothing about the business deal and let everyone continue to think that MJ screwed Paul McCartney over.

it is fantastic just how shy he was on interviews and how different he was performing, like when performing he was at heaveb, but on interviews, or when to talking to people he didnt knew, extremely shy, you can tell he would run away if could, he was so sensitive, i wish he wasnt, that way he would still be with us

Beautiful Michael. Will love you always. Thanks for the memories.

Love it that Michael came to Perth. He looked gorgeous. I wish the reporter and a couple of those commenting had been kinder. It's obvious they didn't really have a clue as to what Michael was all about. Glad I found the report though - have been searching everywhere. Thanks LZJoker.

He's beautiful. Plain and simple. We will love you forever Michael.

I love him. He was so beautiful. Poor guy , always expected to be everything to everybody. I wish people would have tried harder to understand him. He was so pure and genuine. He just wanted to be loved not judged. I love you Michael.

It was 1985, nobody could know what happened to Michael. The press ... idiots. I love you Michael, ....... more.

He is beautiful human. We miss all of you...

Miss u baby Michael 💔😘😍

I agree with Aleeza, in fact the woman speaking told of visiting a book store so Michael could purchase two antique books on skin disease. Love you always, Michael!

my heart just broke when she said Michael bought those medical textbooks...I have so much admiration and respect for this man. How many of us could keep on performing after being diagnosed with a disfiguring skin condition?

Very kind people saying kind words for our Angel..Thank you.

That's correct MJ was a genius businessman who wanted to own and keep the black music on the catalogue which was the most important.

And there has been the public understanding that MJ outbid Paul - not true! Straight from the previous owners of the rights of some of the Beatles catalog - that they got a right of refusal from Paul Mcartney. So Paul was offered FIRST to bid, but refused. So why do some people bitch around that Michael OUTBID Paul?

5:52 "Hi, so sweet !" Yes but YOU are so sweet too !!

miss you michael

The only good thing about this news clip is Michael in that red hat. 6:34 million dollar smile! P.S.: what's so wrong about being shy? It's quite adorable, actually.

Thks for this video, I love every information about that huge talent But why would they always critizise him??? - they are so sick!!! He was what he was, because he was as he was - and he was beautiful.

THANK YOU! Paul was first choice to get his music. He DID NOT WANT IT! People should stop say ing Michael cheated Paul out of his music.

man if i was alive back then, i would have done anything to see him, he was soooooooooooooo fine back in those days:)

That woman said he bought the books because of the surgery. It's the only thing she could think of because no one knew of the vitiligo.

Thankyou

To further explain, he did have vitiligo. Started doing these treatments to even out his skin tone. Its a matter of opinion about if he went to far.

Thank you for your reply! I understand. I wanted to know the details of what happned, too. Thank you for the book information. I'll read it when I have a chance.

this woman is very sharp , she reads the gossip pages thats where she gets her opinon from , this is not the first time a billonaire marries a doornob

He was probably more self-conscious during this trip as from what I have researched this is the first time I can find where he appeared in public where it looks like he did a skin treatment to be a little lighter than before. Earlier in 1985 he recorded We Are The World and other thig and was a lot darker. He then did this trip where he looked lighter. He already had appearance issues and this just added to it. Picking up books on skin disease and things show that.

headapt He never did treatments other than use Benoquin, and that was much later in his life (Benoquin is prescribed to people with vitiligo to help even the remainder of spots on their skin). He also used lighter makeup to even out the discolouration. Michael said himself in the 90’s that he didn’t even know what skin bleaching was, so what treatments are you talking about?

He was covering his face with darker makeup to cover some of the blotches for a while so its possible that he was still trying to figure it out

If Michael Jackson released thriller today this website would crash.

I don't think these people are trying to bad-mouth him, they were just stating what they thought, and how they viewed it. They seemed like they genuinely thought he was a great person. I doubt they knew about the skin diseases or any of that. They probably just knew what the media had reported and then made assumptions. Overall I'm so happy to see this footage =) He's too adorable

Something is clear for me. He wasn't happy at the time :( It could be his concerns about vitiligo and lupus. Or the result of his previous Pepsi accident. Don't forget that he had a seriuos injury that required surgical procedures and drugs to relieve the pain.

Janet Holmes A court says that MJ didn't want the sun on his skin because of his 'plastic surgery program'....? The truth is that MJ had Discoid Lupus and Vitiligo and was told to avoid the sun by his dermatologist. I'm not so sure about his deficient social skills. He did seem to have psychological damage due to extreme fame from the age of 11. Too bad his parents never addressed this when he was a teenager. His life did not have to end so tragically.

He looks so beautiful in this!

@johnlucas1 Michael Jackson actually wanted the ATV catalog for the R&B songs on it from Sly & The Family Stone and Little Richard and all that. The fact that the catalog happened to predominantly contain Beatles songs and that MJ and Paul McCartney had a very public friendship turned it into a controversy. I think also his bitter love/hate relationship with Yoko Ono, who was friends with Michael Jackson as well as Sean Lennon, had a lot to do with the animosity towards MJ from Paul.

Burswood Dome shows were the best😍😍

4:20 it’s because he had been diagnosed with Vitiligo & Lupus.. nothing to do with Plastic Surgery. He was also an introvert

this was after the pepsi commercial. the pepsi commercial was in 1984. This was his real hair with hairpieces

@Srhandel My facts are straight! Your facts are OLD!! He did want Yoko to bid with him, yes, but whatever, he didn't have the available cash to back up his bid, Michael didn't bid as much but had the cash to back it up in the moment. #POW

“with a baby voice” he faked that voice because when he hit puberty people wanted that cute, little michael, they wanted him to stay the same and secondly, because it’s a voice technique to preserve high voice for longer he actually had a deep voice, you can hear him speak with a deep voice when he announced his comeback, or singing with deep voice on “2000 watts”, or “shout”

@7beers does my comment really offend you? its not a mistake she is a person who is attacking Michael on false claims, its people like her that made him out to be this monster in the media, which he was not

He said once he could sleep on stage, but in a social context, how can he relate to people who have recently become famous, when he was famous all his life? What could you talk with people about if you were michael jackson? That's why he loved kids, they don't judge you about your fame, because they don't know you for that, they see you as a person.

***** l'm sorry mate, but it is the subject of song ownership for many of our nieve early artists of the '60s, that makes me very very angry. They were busy creating, with no idea that they were manipulated into signing away ownership of their creations by some f.....g greedy parasite. PAUL AND JOHN SHOULD HAVE NEVER LOST OWNERSHIP OF THEIR CREATIONS. The same thing happened to our Australian [was] band LITTLE RIVER BAND. To me the whole situation is as despicable or unbelievable as if someone could buy the rights to everything done by PICASSO, or any other artist. Plus Paul was waiting for Yoko's decision, cos he felt he shouldn't act on his own, when Michael snapped them up. Just after his supposed period of friendship he had with Paul, when they were recording tog.

Someone respond. So basically he won the catalog fair and square then if Paul didn't want it? Or was it Paul thought he could say no hoping no one else was interested and the price came down?

@MrJacksonvill I totally agree with you. How would this bitch like it if she was invited to a party in another country and she didn't know anybody. On top of that all eyes are on him. Plus he was a shy person as well, his whole family is shy. What did she expect for him to show up and chat it up with strangers. Why can't people see things from his point of view. The fact he stayed close to her at that party should be proof that MJ was not comfortable. I'm shy too so I totally understand him

@emufan23 Of course that is so obvious to me too. Why do stupid people always have to bash him? He was a naturally creative genius. He had a divine intuitive talent. What genius has ever been understood in his own lifetime? Those of us who loved always got who he was.

@davidnashley1985 I'm not sure what that lady is talking about. She pissed me off when she said MJ social skills were lacking. Lady is hard to be as famous as MJ and attend parties. People don't treat MJ like the treat everybody else. All eyes are always on him. He was shy so yeah he is going to be a little scared. If people forgot who he was and just treated him like an average man I'm sure MJ would relax. In fact people who have gotten to know him well say he is shy at first but gets over it

Can you elaborate the story in 1968? Thank you.

@Havic366 Michael bought the catalog fair and square. He's a very smart business man. Paul didn't want it. So why he got so mad over it I'll never know.

Esse catálogo! Latoya, ja havia falado que deram a Paul McCartney o direito de ser o primeiro a negociar... Paul e Yoko queriam descontos! Se Michael Jackson não o comprassem outro o faria... Sei lá, às vezes acho que Michael , estaria vivo se não tivesse adquirido. ( achismos)

I think I know why he was acting like he did. I think it was too fold, the guy from whom he bought the catalogue was South African and also I think he was sad due to someone he liked getting married in a civil ceremony in NYC just some days after the telethon. Tbh I think this was a way for him to be away from the US. I didn't believe that he really felt this way about that lady but he clearly was sombre during late 1985 and early 1986 which coincides with the lady's two wedding ceremonies.

Exactly, Michael had both vitiligo and lupus starting in this period both exacerbated by the Australian sunshine. The lady really read it wrong as you can see he is heavily pigmented and scared to be out in the sun. It is cringeworthy to watch her explain but she is a product of the subjective media

WOW, how silly are some people, lacking in communication skills?? Lady he's be nearly ripped to shreds and this is why he was nervous, WOW

She said he never ever did anything with the Beatles music? He did a cover of come together you silly woman and obviously it was for business - he got load of money from that catalogue.

Let's say Michael didn't have vitiligo, his shyness is not what these people are making it out to be and I wish they would stop this examining- what was he supposed to do tell them his whole life story so they can tell all his business like their doing now down to the books he bought?

@sheebs1019 From just one site on plastic surgery: "Following plastic surgery, it is important not to expose your body to the sun after surgery."

MJ ended up being killed for that catalog.. now Sony has both this & MJ’s own catalog

I wish MJ bought the entire music industry....the other artists/haters would erupt like a volcano. beatles catalogue has left a sour taste already lol...

MJ also had discoid lupus which can disintigrate the skin. I believe this was the main reason that Michael had corrections done on his face.

Michael DID want the Beatles' songs, he just told her a different story. Paul DID want the catalogue and he actually out bid everyone during the auction, but they required a cash back up which Paul didn't have at the time. Michael had the biggest "cash back-up" of auction so the catalogue went to him. His fear of the Sun had to do with the advancement of his Vitiligo, NOT a plastic surgery series. Michael gave Little Richard his own songs back for free making him an instant millionaire.

Michael had vitiligo here onthis trip he was using good makeup to cover it up Later his vitiligo got way out of control thats whe nhe lost t 90% of the darkskin pigmentation.. Thank god he had a great makep artist named Faye to help him later on down the rd.

omg i wasnt evan born lol im so got a billion things to do before i die and thats visit his stars his sisters and his brothers

It's interesting to see MJ in this. His look is oddly transitional. You can definitely tell the vitiligo was really starting to take hold of his skin by this point. It explains why he made very few appearances in public around this time.

she hasa way of making him sound like he is some freak..has she never met someone who is shy..Michael doesn't know these people..I wouldn't trust them either...He was human being he had to protect who he was from all the vultures..

@7beers because its false information being told to people, making him perceived as a person he was not. Just leave it what she said was wrong and false, end of story and i'm sure a majority of people viewing this video would agree with me

she's so ill informed, he wasn't comfortable exposed to sunlight because he had lupus and vitiligo. It's like rubbing salt onto a wound. That's why he wore shades and had an umberella. ofcourse he wsn't comfortable in a social seting because he hasn't been familiar with one. He grew up from the age of 5 to perform ON stage.

he brought the beatles catalouge for the black music?! That makes no sense, unless im mistaken. Im sure above all else he brought it for financial security.

Tom sneddon you freak !!!!!!!

It's business. The Beatles should have not sold the catalogue anyhow. Why criticize the man for doing business? Paul was a fucking billionaire at the time and was too fucking cheap. Michael only owned half and the other half was owned by sony. Why not criticize Sony? I think we all know why.

Everything you said in your comment is wrong… the beatles didn’t sell their own catalog, they didn’t know about the business at the time and then they got screw over when the person that owned their music, sold it without their consent, while they were in the process of trying to get it back. Paul mccartney was not a billionaire in the 80s, he was trying to buy the lennon/maccartney songs alongside with yoko for 20 million but they wanted 50 million, and michael beat them and bought it for 64 million, then after michael was having legal and money issues is when he sold some of it, and that’s how sony ended up with half of it

if i had the chance to see him or meet him, i'd want to hear him speak and just get to know him.. not make him dance and sing like a robot.
