this is all because of Michael
they should be ashamed of what they've done to him

I aint surprised. In fact, I expected as much.
I even said so when it was first announced that the
trailer was gonna be shown on the VMA's.

If it werent for Janets opening and MJ closing the show,
it would have been very boring and the ratings probably
would have tanked out.

Yes, Michael is the only reason why so many tuned in. I wonder how many viewers continued to watch after Madonna and Janet?

Thank you, Janet

It must be due to the Michael Jackson hype soo many watched it.

I just remembered the BET awards scored their highest ratings ever this year and that was also because of Michael. As usual, MJ is helping to bring excitement and save the music industry. Gone or not, the King continues to reign .
