I don't think Michael was in as bad a shape as so many are trying to let on either. Remember he had a complete physical exam.  The promoters of the concert REQUIRE this for insurance purposes.  The people who saw the rehearsals swear he was in tip top form.  The videos won't lie when/if they are released.

I believe he simply overdosed.  Drug use catches up with you and in this case I think too much or a lethal combination was the final straw.

I think it was a little of both. While I'm sure he wasn't this frail, wheelchair ridden man who when injected with painkillers suddenly was full of energy & could sing & dance for  a full two hours. But on the other hand I don't think he was in peak condition, and bam suddenly overdosed on a painkiller, what a tragedy. I think he was a 50 year old,  who wasn't what he was used to, probably could be classified as anorexic, and had been hooked on major painkillers for years, and he was going thru exhaustive dance rehearsals, where he performed great, but his body would be sore and weak afterwards, and he'd get hooked up with meds. His heart couldn't take it anymore and shortly into it gave in.

I didn't know Jermaine went Islam too. Interesting article too.

As for Michael's final pics, let's umm... wait 'til the video. Pictures don't do justice.

As for the previous stuff I was talking about, with the room that Jordie & Jackson shared for a whole day, "sick", in Monaco, it certaintly doesn't look good, but then again, it could've just been he and Jordie in that room, playing Jackson's many games (which he revealed go with him in the Vegas 2003 interview), and he and Jordie simply stayed in there all day playing games, as Jackson didn't want to participate in the awards show.

Or it could've been the other. Who knows.

Until we get an official report I think what you are saying is probably damned close to the truth.

He doesn't dance and move around as much as he used to but he's looking in alright health. My guess now is just a very unfortunate overdose.
