On the Michael album cover, you can see Michael holding a camera...down where the "leave Me Alone" montage is, there is the Weekly World News paper... found some interesting articles, I know its a tabloid but thought there might be possible connections: /> LOS ANGELES - It was the first day of Dr. Conrad Murrays’ manslaughter trail and who was spotted outside – Michael Jackson! There have been persistent rumors since Michael Jackson’s death in 2009, that he is NOT dead, but rather that he disappeared to an island in the Caribbean or to a suburb in New Jersey. A number of people who attended the trial today said they saw MJ outside the courthouse AND inside. “He was definitely here,” said Moira McMahon, a dear friend of Michael Jackson. “We saw him walk in behind his family. It was definitely him.” “He’s not dead. I’ve seen him about a dozen times in L.A. since 2009. He’s either a ghost or there’s something funny going on,” said Donnie McCreary of Bellflower. “I saw Michael. No doubt about it,” said Cassandra Wilkins of West L.A. The highly-publicized trial against late pop icon Michael Jackson’s personal physician Conrad Murray opened Tuesday in Los Angeles, with prosecutors and defense attorneys fought with each other and came up with a large number of testimonies and evidences. A seven-men and five-women jury which was sworn in last Friday heard the case while a prosecutor, in his opening statement, accused Murray for acting with negligence and incompetence while caring for Jackson, 50, by ignoring all standards of medical care while giving the singer heavy doses of a powerful sedative that killed him. Deputy District Attorney David Walgren told the panel that evidence would show Murray, a cardiologist who was hired by Jackson for 150,000 U.S. dollars a month to care for him, “repeatedly acted with gross negligence, repeatedly denied care, appropriate care to his patient,Michael Jackson, and that it was Dr. Murray’s repeated incompetence and unskilled acts that led to Mr. Jackson’s death on June 25, 2009.” To illustrate his case, Walgren showed a picture of what appears to be Michael Jackson’s lifeless body on a gurney. Jackson, 50, was pronounced dead at 2:26 p.m. on June 25, 2009 at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center. The coroner’s office determined that Jackson died of acute Propofol intoxication and classified his death as a homicide. Murray, 58, who is free on 75,000-dollar bail, faces up to four years in prison if convicted of the involuntary manslaughter charge. According to Walgren, at around 5 a.m. on the day when Jackson died, the King of Pop told Murray that he needed to sleep and they agreed Propofol was the answer. Murray said he gave the singer 25 milligrams of the potent drug, but that would only put him to sleep for minutes. Much more Propofol was administered, prosecution alleged. Murray sent e-mails and made eight phone calls after administering the drug on Jackson for about 45 minutes. The last call was made at 11:51 to a girlfriend when Murray realized there was an emergency. When paramedics arrived at the scene, the singer was dead. However, Murray never told the EMTs he had gave the pop singer Propofol, although they asked if Jackon had had any drugs. At the insistence by Murray, Jackson’s body was transferred to UCLA, where Murray once again failed to mention the drug. Walgren told jurors that between April 6 and June 10, 2009, Murray ordered 255 vials of Propofol, totaling 4.09 gallons of the “general anesthetic agent.” Murray and his teams of defense attorneys contended that Jackson swallowed Lorazepam pills and gave himself a lethal dose of Propofol while Murray was out of the pop icon’s bedroom. Defense attorney Edward Chernoff contended that Murray agreed to administer a small amount of Propofol, then monitored Jackson’s pulse and breathing before leaving the singer’s bedroom. After he left, however, a frustrated Jackson woke up and swallowed Lorazepam pills, then somehow gave himself the fatal dose of Propofol, Chernoff claimed. “The evidence will show you … that when Dr. Murray left the room, Michael Jackson self-administered a dose of Propofol that, with the Lorazepam, created a perfect storm in his body that killed him instantly,” Chernoff said. “When Dr. Murray came into the room and found Michael Jackson, there was no CPR, there was no doctor, no paramedic, no machine that was going to revive Michael Jackson. “He died so rapidly, so instantly, he didn’t even have time to close his eyes.” The attorney insisted that Murray was weaning Jackson off Propofol, a drug the singer told the doctor he had been taking for years — calling it his “milk” that he could not sleep without. He had been unable to sleep for 10 hours before Murray administered Propofol on him. As the prosecution’s first witness, Kenny Ortega — the creator and co-director of the ill-fated “This Is It” concert series — testified that Jackson was “completely” involved in the process of preparing for the London concerts. According to him, Jackson, although “very excited “about the London show, missed several rehearsals in late June, shortly before his death. He noticed that the singer wasn’t right on June 19, six days before his death, as the singer seemed lost and was “incoherent.” Ortega was confronted by Murray during a meeting between Jackson, his doctor, Phillips and Jackson’s manager at the singer’s rented home the following day. Murray told him he was upset Ortega didn’t let him rehearse, berating him for acting like a doctor. Fans from around the world are now headed for the trial – now that there have been multiple sightings of the King of Pop.

/> NEW YORK, NY – Has The King of Pop imitated The King by faking his own death? In a 1994 issue of Weekly World News, it was predicted that superstar Michael Jackson was so heartsick with the nightmare his troubled life had become, he would fake his own death – just like Elvis! “Michael Jackson, like Elvis, is sick and tired of being larger than life and wants to get a life,” said world-renowned psychic and metaphysician Dr. Andy Reiss at the time. “The superstar trip has trapped Michael in Neverland. Also there’s a very good chance he could end up in prison if he’s convicted of child sex abuse. “The only way out of this mess he’s in is to fake his death, cut his hair and go underground,” says Dr. Reiss, who specializes in celebrity predictions. Dr. Reiss believes The Gloved One will try to escape his hellish existence by “dying” in Neverland, his remote amusement park retreat. “The cover story will be that Michael Jackson suffered a fatal heart attack while riding his Ferris wheel. Jackson’s ‘remains’ will be cremated and his ‘ashes’ will be scattered on the grounds of his estate,” he explains. “The only way for Michael to start a fresh new life is to end the grotesque life he has now. He learned the trick from Elvis.” ———————————————————– While Jackson did not end his days at his beloved Neverland, he did indeed “die” of a heart attack this afternoon. Did Jackson’s plans come to fruition? Is he still alive somewhere? /> ARTESIA, NM – Weekly World News exclusive: Michael Jackson has been spotted in a diner with Elvis! At roughly 3am last night patrons at a diner outside Artesia, New Mexico, saw what was undeniably Michael Jackson dining with Elvis Presley. The two arrived just before 3 at The Sunshine Diner on 285. Wait staff say that Elvis arrived first, quietly taking a booth near the window. Minutes later Michael Jackson entered the sleepy diner, strutting to the booth where Elvis was seated. Elvis could be seen rolling his eyes even behind his massive sunglasses. The two quietly dined for just under an hour, attracting minimal attention from the other patrons. They ordered the pancake special (cherry) and an egg white omelet respectively. Jackson would pull his hat down over his face whenever anyone passed by, only attracting more attention, until a clearly annoyed Elvis made him stop. The two appeared to be very happy to see each other and spoke pleasantly for the majority of their time in the small town diner. After a slice of sweet potato pie and a fruit cup the two began collecting their things, leaving a tip of 20%. A faithful Weekly World News reader sent in this photo, taken as they were paying at the counter. When they left, a brief good-bye was seen by a waitress named Estelle Roche. After a quick hug Elvis got into a ’75 Cadillac that only started after three tries. Once he had pulled out Michael Jackson pointed his hand into the sky, and in a flash of light he disappeared. A shooting star crossed the early morning sky heading north-west. The photo and eyewitness accounts only further fuel the theory that Jackson staged his own death. Weekly World News will continue to investigate. /> LOS ANGELES, CA – Plans for Michael Jackson’s funeral have been revealed by his estate. Michael Jackson died yesterday afternoon of a heart attack. People all over the world mourn the loss of the King of Pop. In cities across the globe people gathered in squares and parks with candles in hand to mournfully sing his classics like “Beat It” and “Don’t Stop till You Get Enough.” In Utah the Salt Lake City Boys Choir did an a cappella version of “Billie Jean” that was broadcast on loudspeakers into the city and on Mormon Television Networks. Representatives of the Jackson estate have released a statement detailing some of the plans for Mr. Jackson’s funeral. In his will Jackson wishes for his body to be cremated and sprinkled over the surface of the moon. However since then his finances have taken a downturn and new plans have had to be created. A somber and respectful service will be held at an upscale funeral home in Los Angeles. The funeral will be closed casket, with a large picture of Michael from 1982. Seated front row will be Jackson’s ex-wife Lisa Marie Presley, the skeleton of the Elephant Man, Bubbles 4 (the most recent pet monkey to carry the name), and Macaulay Culkin. The remaining members of the Four Tops, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross and the Supremes will all perform at the ceremony to pay their respects. Acting as pallbearers will be the Harlem Globetrotters, who made Michael an honorary member in 1978. President Barack Obama has expressed his sadness at the news of Jackson’s death. In respect he held his press conference on the matter wearing one white glove. Secret Service reports indicate he spent last night drinking scotch and moon-walking through the White House. Sources within the intelligence community believe that Kim Jong Il may be planning a tribute concert in Pyongyang, wearing a red leather version of his standard jumpsuit. Photographs show Kim Jong Il desperately trying to learn the dance to Thriller. The closed casket, and other details, have raised some questions. Yesterday afternoon also saw a flurry of strange meteorological activity over the New Mexico desert. When asked, one source working out of Area 51 who wishes to remain anonymous said “Michael? He not dead. He’s just going home.” Despite his many controversies and eccentricities the world mourns the loss of this unforgettable musical icon. some of these are funny.....
