Presley: 'Maybe I Could Have Saved Jackson' - Comments and Message Board

To: sityourassdownusher, you seem to be very passionate about MJ I like that, well so am I, so there is no need to appear rude to anyone here, we are all here sharing "our opinions" and Love for Michael. Pls don't feel I'm attacking you in any way, I'm just saying my piece here on the LMP issue. RE:cricket56 post-what I believe that cricket56 were trying to say in 'their own way' and not literally is that both men died in a 'similar' fashion, and not necessarily the "same" way, as in her words "copy". I don't think that people consciously copy one another, but there is an "affiliation with" that person (a resonance, as in with close friends). I myself can't deny the apparent similarities/coincidences of their deaths. In addition, it is obvious that they WERE DIFFERENT PEOPLE. Lisa Marie has also stated that she noticed this herself, as if the 'universe' is trying to tell her something. A message perhaps, idk. She did have a relationship with both men, in this case who had “similar life styles", who were "Pop Icons" worldwide and well loved by many fans. When cricket56 said "those type of people" I am guessing that they were referring to Virgos, or popular music artists, where ever. My point, as both men were "VIRGOS"-it is an accurate POV that this particular sign is prone to some form of addictive personality, or escape (if you wish) or another. I have 6 Virgo friends, 4 men & 2 women, and I know them well. Look up the sign 'Virgos’. I'm not saying here that MJ/or Elvis was an addict, I don't believe he (MJ) was, and I don't really follow Elvis, because I AM AN MJ FAN (so to speak). Virgos being 'extremely sensitive people', and 'very intuitive', absorb negative energies easily from people around them, especially those who do not have their best interests at heart. Herein lies their need to escape. Again, not intentionally referring to anyone in particular. They need to be praised often, and constantly likes to be complimented and acknowledged by peers and close friends. If this is not so, they temporarily shut down, go off by them self or just disappear for a while, cutting everyone off, even the people they love until they feel the need to receive "loving" again. This is a dark place for them that is necessary for their healing, even though they don't like being there too much either. That is just the way they are. Just love them and let them "be". This is a side to Virgos that is not quite understood by most family, friends and relatives, because they ARE "very moody" people. They are ALSO deeply complicated, and at the same token can so graciously hold their composure in public so well, that no-one suspects that they are hurting, feel sad, or is in turmoil. Because remember...they need to feel appreciated, to be praised. THIS IS HOW OUR MICHAEL WAS. I hope this clears up some things. LOL, Please Take care!

I don't post here often however, I love reading what MJ fans across the world have to say on any topic, I was very disappointed in Oprah as she had repeated the same questions 5 yrs ago, yet the answers still and remains the same, that he already has be exonerated. I am a 1000% in his defense and liberation, and I just wish that everyone would just let it go that he was guilty. WHICH HE WASN’T and move on already. There are a numerous other ‘great things’ he did that can be discussed. Maybe we his fans and his family, should just start focusing on those things, and make it infectious for everyone to know (haters included), just how loving and special he was. I do miss his presence everyday that I awake. I’m so tired of this outdated issue going on and on. That said, I thought I'd make a comment after watching the "O" interview w Lisa Marie yesterday. I feel that now that realization has finally begun to 'set in' since Michael's passing, regret, grief and sadness is coming forward in her. She is now in retrospect of the past, and wondering what she could have been done better, or differently (if anything). The "what if's...and the "if I had just this thing...etc" is haunting her, this is nothing to wish on someone as I’ve been through this myself and it is not a pretty place to be. But it is too late now however to change the past, ‘this time around’ for her is going to be a "Soul Searching" period to heal and to reflect on the life she had with him. "IF" she had only opened her heart just a little bit wider to let Michael in at the time when he most needed her, she would have been in an entirely different place, both in her mind and her soul. I used to feel sorry for her, as I felt her pain, we all do, because she loved Michael (in her own way), same as everyone here. Just for the record, I am not a fan of hers, in anyway, and I do not approve in the manner with which she chose to deal, when he needed her. That just broke my heart. I would have done it differently. If you say you love someone, YOU NEED TO STAND UP AND SHOW IT, AND BE PROUD OF IT, instead of fearing what people will say. It takes “2” for a relationship to work properly, and IMO I did not believe that she had enough previous experiences to deal with the way Michael’s strong and ‘unique personality’ was. IDK whether her feelings were genuine, or not on the show, but some things seemed sketchy about what she said, and with the way in which she said them. And I’m not judging her one bit. On the other hand, I feel she really seems to miss and care deeply for him. In any case, I don't think Michael would wish us to continue the “unpleasant comments” about her (me included) and I believe that he’d want us to send her prayers instead (and she’s going to need it; )to help her in sorting out her own 'demons' in order to reach a place of clarity, healing and peace. And who doesn’t want that for themselves.Yes she brought this heartache and sadness unto herself by not being there enough;…now let's respect her and allow her to figure this unfortunate and tragic situation out. Thanks everyone!SEND L.O.V.E.Blessings to all MJ Fans!!

I think LMP has amnesia. As far back as 2008 she had this to say about her relationship to MJ:"We're all going to screw up," Presley says. "The important thing is, do you learn from it and not do it again? Can you make it better in the future? Can you change? Because, Lord knows, I've f**ked up many, many times."What was the worst time?"My biggest mistake? Let's see," she begins quietly. "How can I word this? Um. Well. Leaving my first marriage, for the person that I left it for — that was probably the biggest mistake of my life."She is referring, of course, to Michael Jackson, a man whose name she, consciously or not, avoids saying aloud.....Then she did not have an album to promote, but now that Michael Jackson is back in the favour with the general public, she has changed her tune. She says that the time that she spent with MJ was some of the happiest days of her life.MANIPULATOR! DISHONEST! SHAMELESS!

@cricket57 How did Michael copy off Elvis? Please be quiet. Michael and Elvis are TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT PEOPLE WHO DIED IN TOTALLY DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES. He died with NO drugs except for propofol in his body. READ THE AUTOPSY REPORT. Elvis died of painkillers he WILLINGLY TOOK HIMSELF. You all need to stop acting like they're the same people.

If Michael Jackson would of been saved, he would have been. It was not meant to be. People should stop talking about the past, and let it be. I believe Michael Jackson copied off of Elvis. Just like Elvis, he had an additive personality. no one could save Elvis either.Those type of people no one can ever help. They can't help it, that's their nature. But it's nice that Lisa thought she could have.

i wonder how she would feel if when she was alittle girl , she saw some old girlfriend of her fathers who had spent a few years trashing her dad every time she had an album coming out for publicity, coming on television discussing him like she is his widow..i think it is inappropriate for her to be discussing anything regarding mj before dr murray trial.it is self serving on her part.mj lawyer said during trial they reached out to some people to help and they turned their back on him.he said these are the ones that are crying the most now. i think he meant lmp among others

LMP, If it is any consolation whatsoever everyone feels the same way you do about MJ. We all wish that we could have somehow reached out and saved him too....Destiny is a hard to beat.....As I listen to his music each song each melody was done out of L.O.V.E and for us...his fans...R.I.P MJ...You are so dear to our hearts and we miss you terribly...You had it all...

LMP and Oprah are two of a kind. They both had "FUN" trashing Michael when he was alive and now profess to be so broken up now that he is gone. All MJ ever wanted was a family, his own children. He cared for so many children around the world and was so involved in the health of this earth. He called LMP to wish her well after the birth of her twins. He was a remarkable human being who did not hold negative energy against others. We have lost a great humanitarian, entertainer and visionary. What have you done, Lisa Marie? You could not even defend this remarkable man, you should be ashamed of yourself. Michael will be remembered forever, you will be forgotten quickly.

Her loser mother Priscilla probably put her up to this. If you see the interview from 2005 on Oprah of Lisa and her mother (on YouTube), you will see PRISCILLA calls the shots in her adult daughter's life in certain ways. She wanted Lisa to divorce him the minute she heard of the marriage. She hated Michael, specifically for being a threat to the Elvis legacy and Presley 'dynasty'. Now that MJ is dead and his estate has surpassed that of Elvis, Priscilla probably advised Lisa to play the 'grieving widow' to MJ. This gives her attention, which gives her even more money than what she has from her lifelong inheritance. Soon Lisa may write a book on her marriage to Michael (much like Priscilla did on her marriage to Elvis). Priscilla TRASHED Elvis when he was alive, calling him a rapist, an abuser, etc even though SHE cheated & left him for another man. After his death, she played grieving widow and continues to use Elvis for fame, notoriety, money, and attention. Lisa betrayed Michael & is now doing the same hypocritical crap to Michael. She doesn't look comfortable answering O's questions in the previews. SOMEONE put her up to this. My guess is Priscilla. Don't believe much of what Lisa says. She's a notorious liar. Go on YouTube and see the amount of videos of her & Michael together AFTER their divorce. PRICELESS!

LIAR Marie will continue to LIE about the marriage as long as the media continues to kiss her sorry a**. She and Oprah want to paint Michael as a drug addicted lunatic. Sorry Lisa. All your dirty laundry will be aired out soon enough. You fail to tell the media that you followed Michael around the world AFTER the divorce, that you PROMISED him children before the marriage and then went back on it due to your racist, hateful family. You fail to tell the media about your real reasons for trashing Michael. He wouldn't take you back. He moved on and had kids with Debbie, a woman who KEPT her promise. You said you could never feel sorry for Michael, that he "used" you, that he was "manipulative". You fail to mention that Nicolas Cage was the one who used you since HE was OBSESSED with Elvis. NOT Michael. GET A LIFE & GO AWAY. YOU & ORCA ARE OPPORTUNISTS. NEITHER OF YOU CARE ABOUT MICHAEL. THIS IS FOR RATINGS. IF MICHAEL WAS SUCH AN ADDICT, WHY DID YOU DENY SEEING HIM TAKE DRUGS BACK IN '03, WHY DID HIS *AUTOPSY* SHOW HIS ORGANS WERE IN FAIRLY HEALTHY CONDITION??? LIES, LIES, LIES.

Well, once again, Ms. Presley presents Mr. Jackson in a negative light. These comments are not helpful with the upcoming court case with Dr. Murray. She said she had cut herself off from him, so she really had no idea what was going on with him and his life. His bodyguards who worked for him in Las Vegas said, when asked, if he ever mentioned Lisa Marie. They said he never mentioned her in the two years they worked for him, and they were with him 24/7. It seems as if Mr. Jackson had cut himself off from her as well. To say he was "so ill", is just not accurate. Michael Bearden, the musical director for the "This Is It" tour", said that Mr. Jackson never looked better and the night before he died, he was awesome on stage. He said he will never forget the look Jackson gave him. He said it was a look that said, "I am Michael Jackson. This is what I do. How dare you doubt me!" He said the cast even commented how he had his "glow" back. IMO he was finally exiting from the trauma of that horrible waste of taxpayer's money in 2005. Ms. Presley didn't even come to his defense at that time. She told Larry King she was "benign" about the whole trial. How cold hearted is this woman?? He was fighting for his life! That trial devastated him emotionally and the media never let up on him- and it continues even in death. I don't know how he survived this attack on his spirit. He had an extremely strong faith in God, which I think helped him to persevere under the onslaught of persecution.Mr. Jackson had so much to live for. He was excited about this new phase in his life. He wanted his children to see him perform. He wanted to tour the world one more time and then focus on his music and films. He had a lot to look forward to in life. It is such a tragedy that he so much more to give, and we will never see and hear what might have been. I wish, just once, Ms. Presley would acknowledge him for all the good times they shared, and give him credit for his legacy of music, dance and humanitarianism. He gave all he had from the age of five. He deserves our respect and admiration as there will never be another Michael Jackson.

The man is dead, You could have been more respectful LMP, saying something negative about someone that has passed on is wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Since LMP knew she had nothing positive to say about MICHAEL JACKSON why say anything AT ALL.........
