Michael Jackson: Lisa Marie Presley says King of Pop was afraid he was going to die

Tags:

Lisa Marie Presley, former wife of Michael Jackson, revealed yesterday that the King of Pop — who died suddenly on Thursday — feared that he would die like her father, Elvis Presley. In an emotional post on her MySpace blog, Presley wrote, "Years ago Michael and I were having a deep conversation about life in general. I can't recall the exact subject matter but he may have been questioning me about the circumstances of my Fathers Death. At some point he paused, he stared at me very intensely and he stated with an almost calm certainty, 'I am afraid that I am going to end up like him, the way he did.' I promptly tried to deter him from the idea, at which point he just shrugged his shoulders and nodded almost matter of fact as if to let me know, he knew what he knew and that was kind of that." Presley noted, "His family and his loved ones also wanted to save him from this as well but didn't know how and this was 14 years ago. We all worried that this would be the outcome then." Despite years of "indifference and detachment," she described herself as being "truly, truly gutted" and having "unstoppable tears" over Jackson's death, and insisted that her marriage to the pop star was not a "sham," contrary to media reports. "It was an unusual relationship yes, where two unusual people who did not live or know a 'Normal life' found a connection, perhaps with some suspect timing on his part," she wrote. "Nonetheless, I do believe he loved me as much as he could love anyone and I loved him very much." She also declared about Jackson: "He was an incredibly dynamic force and power that was not to be underestimated. When he used it for something good, It was the best and when he used it for something bad, It was really, REALLY bad."

    Wow, that is so sad. I am so sorry for her loss and for the world’s loss. I just heard a report that Stevie Wonder is so upset that he has gone mute(temporarily I pray)since Michael Jackson death. So, so sad.

  • Princesss

    Yeah, that last like WAS weird. Like she’s trying to say something but doesn’t want to say too much, Hmm, I dont know but RIP MJ you’ll be missed by the whole world. I really hope that his death wasn’t induced by that Murray doctor because, MAN it’ll be hell for that man, and a shame that MJ could still be here right now.

    Betty, Betty, Betty, you sick, sick spammer.
    1. No one, not a single person on earth, would remotely believe for a second that Michael Jackson was was trolling for women on your website.
    2. If a person with the sexual preferences of Michael Jackson WAS on your website, why in the hell would any sane women want to go there?
    3. I wouldn’t be so sure he was in heaven, unless God gives bonus points for choreography.

    There’s only one legitimate place I’ve found to hear the 911 call, it’s over at http://jjpeg.com/watch28225.html and the autopsy report itself is over at http://jjpeg.com/file2018451.html for download if you wanna read it
    They make you do a little questionnaire to get into the site for some reason but it works so whatever

    DUE TO THE FACT THAT MICHALE JACKSON IS 99% PLASTIC, HE WILL BE MELTED DOWN INTO LEGO BLOCKS SO THAT LITTLE KIDS CAN PLAY WITH HIM FOR A CHANGE.

    Lisa likes the limelight just like Michael. He confirmed The Kiss was rehearsed for 20 minutes. She never had sex with MJ. She’s playing Elvis all over again for profit.

  • d Turner

    Lisa Likes to promote her and Elvis so she and MJ drew up this scheme to produce a super baby with both sperms. Trouble is No sex no baby. No MJ sperm zero.
