...In one of the talk shows, MITM were performed by an Norwegian artist that I know is a massive fan of Michael while Obamas siter were present. She said that she was a massive fan, and that her children is now discovering him.
I think this is part of what never really gets out in the media: Michael has fans of all ages, colours and he has fans at all levels of society. Nobody has ever had the universal apeal on this level before. His fame is not constructed or engineeded solely by some marketing tricks. He was the real thing. And its never just about the artist. its about the message he put forward, and how he was as an person.
