The Michael Jackson Memorial thread-

[innerSpaceman]

Were other dead celebrity kids hounded? I don't follow gossip news, so I've no idea.

Also, I don't remember dead Elvis news going on for too long. Just that, like Michael Jackson, he turned out to be worth far more dead than alive.

There was no internet back then either. All people have to do nowadays is start a rumor in a blog somewhere and then it becomes "news". But, then again, I was only 4 years old when Elvis died, so I didn't hear nor understand much news back then.

Though, I imagine that MJ, like Elvis, will be endlessly immortalized through impersonators, memorabilia, and even conspiracy theories like "he faked his death and is living in a trailer park in southern Texas".
