WTF? The man is a JW and JWs do not celebrate birthdays. So, shame on your ass! You knew that his b-day was August 29th and you could have told people an idea on how fans can celebrate his birthday. You guys could have teamed up with other fan sites and threw a party for him like what happened in 2003. I didn't see you or anyone on here doing that. So, why even go there with the man? If you have some MJ fans who are your buddies and you wanna do something on Mike's b-day, then do that. However, do not expect MJ to do anything for his birthday. What Madge and Prince did for their birthdays (even though Prince is also a JW and doesn't celebrate birthdays) has nothing to do with Michael.
There is a party in NYC being set up. I read that there will be on in Austrilia (sp) and in Las Vegas. So, there are fans celebrating the man's birthday. BTW, if you people want to send something to Michael, you can send it to his NL estate. He still owns the place, so do your part and send something to him. There is a PalTalk party, a youtube party, all kinds of things to do. Stop bitching on the man when it is not his fault. Damn. Yes, 50 is a huge milestone, but some people, like MJ, do not want to make a big deal about it. That is him, not you or me. Just be happy that he is free to be able to turn 50 with his children, family and fans. Goodness. I think at times, fans take MJ for granted and expect him to do what other people are doing. Please, give that nonsense up!
