Philip Hensher of the Independant weighed in on the MTV Video Music Awards fiasco that had Michael Jackson mistakenly confuse a birthday present with an Artist of the Millenium Award. Henscher said, “And, funny as it is, the weirdness of the episode becomes apparent when you observe that Mr Jackson displayed no kind of scepticism or surprise on hearing that anyone, anywhere, might consider him ‘the Artist of the Millennium’. His demeanour was not that of one about to say ‘Oh, don’t be so ridiculous.’ Perhaps he had envisaged the awards committee lightly passing over Hildegard of Bingen, Bach, Beethoven and Wagner before unanimously deciding that the most deserving candidate was living among us.”

Obviously he didn’t look surprised. TV set the entire thing up. They told Michael that he would be getting a special award, and then they scripted Brittany’s speech to include the words” Artist of the Millennium”. As you will see when MJ is speaking he has a piece of paper in his hands, obviously notes to remember who he should thank. He would clearly have not taken it with him, if he had not told he was getting an award.
I think it was a cruel joke to play, and one of the lowest of the low a TV program can actually stoop to. MTV is DISGUSTING. Don’t watch them.
Please re watch the video and you will see.
And it’s Mr Jackson to you.
