These images were taken of a pale and gaunt Michael Jackson on June 23, 2009 at the Staples Center during rehearsals for his upcoming 50-date concert engagement at the 02 Arena in London.
The concerts were set to begin on July 13 and last through the beginning of March 2010.
But Jackson’s friends doubt he would have lasted that long. They say Jackson hired a personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray of Las Vegas, just two weeks before he was to leave for London to provide him with prescription drugs — and eventually, an excuse to bail out on the concerts series early.
Jackson was in no physical shape for such a grueling contractual commitment. The 50-year-old 5′-10″ superstar weighed approximately 125 pounds when he suffered a cardiac arrest and passed away last week.
The ideal weight for a 5′-10″ man with a small frame is 144-154 lbs.

Micheal JAckson has been “pale and gaunt” since 1993 real talk
He has always been a thin man.
The ideal weight for a 5?-10? man with a small frame is 144-154 lbs
The key word is Ideal.
why don’t you report that Michael was inducted into the Guiness book of world records for being the most charitable person EVER! people never wanna talk about how big this man’s heart was.

You took the words right out of my mouth. Not to mention Dr. Murray has worked with Michael longer than two weeks. Michael asked the concert promoters to put Dr. Murray on salary for the show two weeks ago, but he has been treating Michael for a while. Too bad Mike employed a doctor who doesn’t even know proper procedure for giving CPR.
Aww the Smooth Criminal jacket..:-(
why they frontin…the man would have dobne those shows…fuck what u heard…look @ him..he dont look tired…how long he been in he game and yall making it seem like NO HE CANT….PLEASE MIKE WAS GONNA DO IT…50 NOT OLD EITHER I SEE IF HE WAS 70 DAMN
With all that insurance that was required you would think an extensive check up was in order before he started training for this tour.
on cnn they said katherine was granted temporary custody of the kids.

A checkup was done, AEG said he was in great health and at the time of the checkup their doctors believed he could do the shows.
Looking at these pics, it matches what many people at the rehearsal had been attributed as saying, Micheal looked as he always did and they had a great rehearsal.
Mike made skinny niccas ok…. shout out to my skinny niccas!!
Why all the mud slinging Sandra dang???

They said Mike endured a 4 hour physical in order for the promoters to get insurance for the show. There was no evidence that he was in poor health. Based on what they have said on the news, many things can lead to sudden cardiac arrest, including anorexia. They also said that fewer than 20% of victims of cardiac arrest are able to be revived. A divibulator (sp?) can increase your chances if administered right away, but not by much. This doctor didn’t even have that. Mike had a serious quack taking care of him.
annie are you ok?
will you tell us
that your ok?
**getting my smooth criminal on RAT now**
BTW- I read somewhere that Debbie Rowe has confirmed she was not impregnanted by MJ’s seed… IDK if I believe that.. why marry the wench and pay to get her preggo and not use your own sperm….
She needs more people… I still think those are his kids.. at least 2 of em.. sheesh

Now one thing that HAs bothered me was those kids, i never believed they were biologically his kids… BUT i hope no testing or anything comes out and say otherwise he was the only parent tthose kids ever knew so i hope that aspect can just rest…i also think thats why mama jackson wants the kisd so bad she dont want that scandal either
From fan to full out hate. My how fickle we are.
cosign shauny and spongebob…
@Shauny – Did you see your boy Melo last night?
Joe Jackson was just on CNN doing a press conf.
Why is he doing so much press all of a sudden? I don’t get it. I can’t remember the last time I heard Joe do press. To be honest I’ve never saw Joe do press in my lifetime.
I hope he has the fam’s blessing to do all this press. (Which I doubt)
Mike was surrounded by a bunch of money hungry idiots who cared more about the money than the man.
you ain’t lying either anti pc… and if they have there way they will profit greatly from his death.. baztards…
SMH@ these people NOW they wanna come out with thier stories about this and that, selling their stories ewww im so disguted
i loved MJ i went to my parent house and looked for my old MJ stuff, only found my Thriller pillowcase im upset:(
Daisy – Now you know I saw my man. I was just a cheesing..lol
But baby Trey was just TOO fine so Melo came in second last night. I would love to see Melo dress. Even LeBron was sorta dress casual. Melo azz was straight hood in jeans and a tee. I want to see him dressed up more.
SANDRA YOU ARE WORSE THAN THE WHITE MEDIA. STOP IT! WHO GIVES A FLYING F@CK. LET THE MAN REST IN PEACE!
Jamie said it best last night. They are doing a number on this man…………..SMGDH!
man mike was gonna moonwalk the f*ck out of that stage !!! i don’t care what noone says !!!!
I get it Sandra. Perez came at Mike and the “backlash” drew more hits and got him more than 10,000 new followers on twitter in a matter of days. Ok i get it now. ur following perez’s formula.
This shis is a god darn shame, I am in disbelief at this blog, very disappointed and that’s all I’m going to say….
