Would you want to be Michael Jackson-level famous — not necessarily from music, but from anything: social media, entertainment, or whatever? Would you want to be as famous as him? Why or why not?

Even Michael Jackson, himself, grew to hate being that famous and often lamented it in interviews before he stopped giving them, and in the few he did give before his death.
fame becomes a curse to all
edit: I remember when he died… I was walking through Washington Square Park in NYC, and I got an alert on my phone. I was so stunned, that I sat own on the nearest bench and just stared at my phone. I noticed that everyone around me also got an alert, and they all just froze… Everyone around me just froze… The whole city just STOPPED IN PLACE. it freaked me out. Then the internet went down. I tried to call a friend, but I couldn’t. I couldn’t send a text or load a webpage… nothing worked for, like, half an hour. shit was fucked.
The only other time I remember something like that, when I couldn’t make a phone call/txt/use the internet was 9/11
I was the in ER outside Philadelphia and there were sheets between the beds. The TV was up above where we could all see it. About three beds over I heard “he bleached himself to death!”
How much of that bleaching was medical vs choice?
I was on a road trip to Arizona with my ex and heard it on the radio. The triple whammy with Farrah Fawcett and Billy Mays made it pretty much all we heard on the news the entire time we were out west
I graduated highschool the day Micheal Jackson died
You don’t need to add “edit”. No one will ever know.
There’s an edit icon on that post…
And pointing out edits is good internet etiquette. Since edits don’t change replies, someone could edit their comment and make all the replies seem unrelated etc.
Do you really have nothing better to do than post pedantic, asshole replies like this?
Did you know edit is tide backwards?
tide comes in, edit goes out.
You can’t explain that.
Magnets man how do they work?
