Micheal is dead. The child pervert should not be up for any award.
When will you stupid, ignorant people finally understand! Michael was innocent. Do not be so biased.
The families lied. He was the nicest human being with the biggest heart on earth! This poor man had have enough to suffer.
I was a fan for about 17 years.
Don't you think that I can him better estimate than you?
Sry for my english.
3:17, learn english dumbass. And you where a fan for 17 years, so that means you know what micheal did everyday he was alive. Get real moron. Micheal was a child pervert and a freakin drug addict. And how does a guy who has not put any music out for years get a chance at winning a award. What a joke.
Micheal is DEAD. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.
When commenters continually slander MJ it says more about them than anything else. Hate is easy. Michael was a genius, a prodigy and a prolific songwriter and performer. Haters are a dime a dozen, as useless and abundant as what is found in a toilet bowl.
Gee I don't see Kanye West anywhere on the nominees......
Thats because his music sux.
Well im not a hater but Michael did not do anything to earn a award this year.He just died.So is he getting a award for dying?
Can't wait to see Jennifer Lopez perform.
He did plenty. Money talks, and bull**** walks. He's sold more albums than anyone in 2009, and this is all about sales. Some folks are busy searching out blogs to say what they can to bring MJ down, and all the while his fans are still buying his music. This proves how GI-normous his fan base is. WTG fans, and WTG MJ. In the end, he's still a winner. Hope that bothers you people who think the worst about someone who is the best.
MJ is the nicest person in the world :):):)
despite all the wacko jacko heat him or like him mj is the greatest singr of all time
despite all the wacko jacko heat him or like him mj is the greatest singr of all time
Vote M.J Let's keep his legacy running!
some of u guus are really disrespectful. it says alot about how u were raised.SAD
good luck to all the nominees
October 13 @ 4:19pm : "And you where a fan for 17 years," should read "And you were a fan for 17 years,". Maybe you both could take an English class together :)
@ 2:29 pm & 4:19 pm (same one?)
I think YOU are the child pervert. Go to hell. Sick idiot(s).
Me for myself dealed enough with the human being MJ and the allegations.
Read the facts, it's proven that the families lied. Do you know, that Jordan Chandler breaked off the contact to his parents?! He told many people that he lied for his father because he wanted 20 Mio. Dollars. There are many witnesses, which can verify it.
Michael Jackson was the victim of money-grubbing people.
He was a caring, good heart, sensitive but also a naive person. Many many people had exploited it...
His whole life he was surrounded by vultures.
And btw...Like I'd wrote before: Sorry for my english. It's not my native language.
