The Bashir interview convinced me, that's way before the LN documentary. No one can convince another person who's described MJ as the greatest human being who ever lived and then say, they were never a big fan, it's over before it began. Describing paedophile documented grooming behaviour as anecdotal is already troubling.
I took my daughter and her friend to MJ's HIStory concert in Brisbane in 1996, she was a fan and I liked a few of his songs too. I'm not clouded by hysteria like his die hard fans who I think, hold on to the freak aspect because they feel like outsiders too! I understand that kind of worship is hard to break!
But that Bashir interview, all the accusations that kept on coming, and he'd pay to make them disappear, and he still persisted in having boys over to his house shows some kind of craving or addiction he couldn't control.
The footage of MJ shopping for jewellery with a little boy (James Safechuck), I mean, not even little boys do this with other boys, so his claim of missing out on his boyhood and wanting boy type activities is really crafty.
