Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

actually I kind of expect her to be nice after seeing her behavior this past year. What will truly shock me will be if she repeats her "holy mother of god" speech.
 
Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

Iam starting to see that tv is bad for you these days. Because its always bad news :( When you see the news each day they start of out by reporting who died and who did what wrong. Ah i dont like negative stuff on tv.

 
Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

If she actually goes on Oprah and tells the complete opposite of what she said the last time to her, she'll make a big fool out of herself. If she actually DOES,she'll get a bit more respect from me really.
 
Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

I'm looking forward to this interview, I'm really curious about what she is going to say. I just hope they won't stress the 'drug addiction' part too much. But I don't think Lisa Marie would be negative about him like she was in the past, her composure since he died tells me she regrets that and really did love him (I've always believed that though, and I do believe Michael genuinely loved her too). Often when people get divorced they become resentful towards their ex-partner, and we don't know everything that happened between her and Michael. Michael said himself that he's very difficult to live with. Anyway, LMP has been very close to Michael for several years, she stood by him and brought him some happiness in perhaps the most difficult period in his life. I respect her for that. The comments she made about Michael after their divorce are unfortunate and regrettable, but on the other hand: haven't we all once said things out of bitterness that we wish we hadn't said now? I admire Michael for not falling into the same trap, but it takes a great person to be that way. Reading some of the comments on this board, it appears that some people are denying her the right to grieve, just because she moved on with her life and got married again. I can't believe this. Many of us are still deeply upset with his passing even though we never even met him personally, yet the woman who was married to him and knew him in the most intimate way cannot even express her sadness without being called a "fake" or an "attention seeker"? She probably feels guilty for the things she said in the past and her grief now may be a way in which she 'punishes' herself for it, the love she's showing him now may be a way to overcompensate for the negativity of the past. I've seen the exact same thing happening with people around me who have lost someone close to them, it's human nature to be that way. We don't cherish what we have until it's gone. This interview with Oprah may be a way for Lisa Marie to set things straight and counter some misconceptions that still exist about their marriage (e.g. that it wasn't true love, that they married out of convenience, that Michael was a-sexual/gay etc.). I'm willing to give her that second chance. I just hope she uses this opportunity to show the world a different side of Michael, the 'common' human side that very few people got the privilage to see. This might help to change the still dominant perception of Michael being some sort of freak or ***** who couldn't relate to the experiences of 'normal' people.
 
Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

If somebody tells me LMP doesn't want publicity/money, you're so wrong! Very few people don't expect to have any bennefit in return.
Despite she has tried to make a musical career on her own, most of the people know her for two things: To be Elvis Presley's daughter and because Michael and her got married. What else could she talk about?
The only difference between this "new" intervew and the past ones is that she's gonna say nicer stuff about our man.
She's a backstabber, a lier and a gold digger in my eyes because Michael has never talked crap about his ex-girlfriends/wives.

Michael you are a real gentleman! :clapping: :give_rose:

I wasn't going to post in this thread anymore but I just had to add this.
Of course she is not going to outright be negative about him now.
It's acceptable to love Michael now.
She knows that if she would be negative now she would be going up against popular opinion and as her history has shown she doesn't do that.
Just like she was always negative when his name was brought up while it was still cool to hate on Michael.
She will probably be playing the loving ex-wife this time around.
(While of course emphasizing how hurt she is through all of this and how much of a victim she is still from him)

She won't win my respect by doing that. We've all seen how she has been behaving for the last 15 years. Now the man dies and she has a change fo heart? He had to die for that to happen?
I'm sorry but for me that's just not right. Her kissing up to him now is not going to erase that for me.That's just my opinion about it.
I don't hate her but I don't care for her. That's all.

The only way she will get some respect from me is if she for once learns to say "You know what, I'm going to keep these things private and between me and him" or in short "No comment". Why that is so hard for her when it comes to Michael is something I can't really understand.
Unless she once again is trying to use his name to get some exposure for some other project she is doing. (I'm not saying that is the case but it wouldn't surprise me)

Honestly I haven't once heard a person say after all of this with Michael happened, wow I wonder how LMP feels about this? Not once in the general public.
Even her blog got little exposure.
So I don't really see the need for this interview but that's just me.
 
Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

I disagree.. I don't think she grieved over MJ's death and I don't think she's grieving now. She didn't care about MJ, her actions over the years prove that. This Oprah interview is based on attention seeking for her new album and recent move to London. She'll show off her new home, husband and babies and rake MJ over the coals once again.

In my opinion this interview will be another stab in the back of MJ. She will demonstrate that she felt MJ was not worthy of being married to and having kids with, but her current husband was? What she did is the ultimate betrayal of MJ. He wanted kids so badly and she refused him that, yet she have babies at 40 with a man who is almost 50 years old??

Come on now.. she had those babies to hurt MJ and she knows it.. She doesn't deserve to grieve in my opinion because it only shows her fakeness. I have zero respect for that woman

So what would you prefer? That she stays quiet and let the negative comments about their marriage of the past linger? Or that she keeps saying crap about him in order to not be labled a "hypocrite" by the fans? In my opinion, going publicly to - most likely - speak positively about Michael is the best option.

And for those who say Lisa Marie is doing this for money or fame: please, she had both before she even met Michael, she doesn't need him for that.
 
Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

You're not the only one who thinks that, what more things can she say? Comfirming Michael is not gay? Apologizing for what she's done?

She's as two faces as Oprah is!

Let's not forget that she actually MARRIED Michael when it was pretty uncool to like him. Honestly, I don't get the impression that Lisa Marie cares too much about popular opinion. I don't think she said the negative stuff about him because she thought it was cool - I think she said that stuff because she was really angry about the break-up of their marriage.

You've seen the interview already? :ermm: Also, who are you to decide whether someone deserves to grieve or not? You make it seem like you know all the details of their marriage and divorce, when in fact you know nothing more than any of us, this is all speculation. "She had those babies to hurt MJ and she knows it" LOL!

Her actions had spoke quite the opposite during these 14 years. She could have done that since the beginning but she didn't. Why is fashionable loving Michael now?
If she realized he was manipulating her since the beginning of their relationship, why she got marry him.

Are you sure what you're saying about the money and fame?
All her intervews since she got divorced has talked about Michael.

I didn't mean that she said those things because it was "cool",however if it wasn't popular to be anti-MJ I think she wouldn't have talked about it as openly as she did and the number of times she did it. Just like she hardly ever talks about her other marriages. She knows there's no need to be negative about them in the press. She doesn't get anything out of that.
You know what, I think she tries very hard to seem like she doesn't care about what others think but while trying to prove that she comes across as very insecure and childish to me. (at least in her previous interviews, maybe she has changed that attitude after having her twins)
Again that's just the way I see it.

Honestly I could have understood a little if she had expressed her feelings once, to get it of her chest. (even then I would have found it unclassy but still I could have understood it a little)
But all the time? Years later still making statements like calling their marriage her "Biggest Mistake"?
I'm sorry,I think she should have kept it classy and stopped talking about it long time a go.
I think a lot more fans would have respect for her if she did that.
(She probably doesn't care how we feel though)
 
Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

Her biggest mistake was to leave her first husband for the person she did,

yep and we know that was Michael.. she was so ashamed and embarrassed that she didn't even want to mention his name..

Now she suddenly wants to talk about him and discuss him with Oprah over tea in England.

What a farce she is and this interview is...
 
Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

If it's like that, she wouldn't have accepted Michael's proposal in first place!

I'm angry now! :angry: :rant:

Wait, Oprah is actually going to her house in England? It's not like Lisa is going to the USA to the show? Then i wouldn't be surprised at all if she's gonna 'brag' about her happy life now and show her house and all that...how perfect her family now is. And of course throw some stabs at her marriage with Mike. Of course, i am only guessing, we don't know what its gonna be about.

yes it's been posted several times that Oprah went to England to do the interview sometime in August or September... Of course she's going to brag about her new life and new babies and new career goals etc.. All the while bashing MJ as some addict that was going to die like her father etc.. That's why I've said several times this interview won't be good at all.. It's just another jab at MJ and I won't give her or Oprah the ratings for it.

And the sad part is there is absolutely no need for this interview.. Lisa had no idea what was going on with MJ over the years.. She didn't want to know because she herself said she was detached and wanted nothing to do with him, so how can she sit up on Oprah and talk about him? she wasn't around him. She had no idea about his health and mental state.

Have you read my previous post about her change of heart since Michael died? I already provided an explanation for this (not saying that I am certain that this is what happened, but it's a very plausible possibility). Again, a lot of people are resentful after they get divorced, she may have said those things out of bitterness but regret them now because since Michael died, she realizes how much she loved him. This is a completely natural human reaction. "Don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you got till it's gone..." I am not saying that fans should just forget about all the stuff she did in the past that undoubtedly hurt Michael, but personally I am seeing this interview in light of a greater purpose, namely clearing Michael's name off all the horrible things it is associated with. Yes, we as fans may feel Lisa Marie is being hypocritical because we know about her comments in the past, but the general public won't be that aware of it and see this interview from a more neutral perspective. For them, it is a way to hear (I assume) positive things about Michael from a woman who was very close to him and who is generally respected for being "The King's Daughter". I prefer this to another show bashing Michael any day.

Why is fashionable loving Michael now?
Click to expand...

As another person has said, I don't think Lisa Marie was that concerned about being "fashionable" considering the fact that she married Michael in the middle of that 1993 scandal.

If she realized he was manipulating her since the beginning of their relationship, why she got marry him.
Click to expand...

Did she say that though? IIRC she said he could be manipulative in her marriage with him. Sounds like the typical comment of a bitter ex-wife to me. But unlike some people here though, I don't think Michael was an absolute angel and LMP was the devil in that relationship. Michael even admitted himself that he wasn't.

Are you sure what you're saying about the money and fame?
All her intervews since she got divorced has talked about Michae.
Click to expand...

Yes I'm sure. She has millions of dollars and has been famous from the day she was born, she's the daughter from one of the most famous and best-selling artists in the history of music for God's sake. Of course she discusses Michael and Elvis in her interviews, she's the ex-wife of one and daughter of the other and people are interested in it. But I really don't see how this interview will help her record sales in any way, has it worked in the past? I don't see the connection, honestly.

I kinda agree with this. You have shitty interviews she did, but you also had interviews like these. The constant thing you get from some of her interviews is she was deeply hurt by the break up.

BUNTE interview

"I loved him. I really did."

"My life really went down the hill [after leaving Danny]. I had to defend my love [towards Michael] all the time. Before that, I was a normal wife and mother. When I married Michael, I became a real target in the media."

Now the magazine sees hatred in Lisa's eyes as she says the following...

"I am not here to attack Michael. Until now, I have disclosed very few details of what has really happened in this marriage. I suffered. I was so mad at how they were treating me. When our marriage ended I wanted to call a press conference and tell everyone what had really happened. That my heart got broken. I was deeply disturbed and shattered because I truly was in love with Michael."

"This relationship has poisoned me. I couldn't lead a normal life for about a year after that. And I wasn't allowed to say anything."

The last intervew that was aired in Oprah and this post proves she's a backsttabber, hypocritical and how contradictory her behavior has been through the years.
 
Re: LMP Back on Oprah This Thursday

well the bad interviews outweighed that one decent one.. Bunte' isn't very credible anyway. They probably misquoted her

Exactly it shows she goes how the wind blows.. she's definitely a hypocrite. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. She has said so many contradictory things it's just insane.. If you really loved someone, there's no way you would ever spew as much hatred as she did.
