What a pity, that some people are blind to how beautiful this man's work is because of allegations. The reality of the situation is that Michael Jackson was a great musical genius and how lucky are we to enjoy his gifts?
i just love :26 and :32-:35.... when michael is laughing...so cute...and when he says "don't you carry nothing,that might be a load..come on" michael is just the most precious thing ever....his voice was so cute....
as a guy i can actually say mike had a nice smile. a smile that i actually want lol. im not gay but. i just admire mike he a role model to me. amd i Knew when he passed he would ease on to heaven. Because with a good heart like his thats where it sh ould be. and if u agree with me like this. R.I.P My idol.
@Kaydubbleyew They originally wanted Stephanie Mills who originated the role on Broadway. I personally think she would have been better than Diana Ross.
@TheHiphopjoe Actually that is not true...Stephanie Mills was NEVER considered for the movie version of THE WIZ. Rob Cohen's original idea was to have a nation wide talent search for a new star to play Dorothy. Stephanie Mills name was NEVER even mentioned a dinner party to discuss THE WIZ film which included Director Sidney Lumet, Lion Ted Ross, and Motown excutive Suzanne De Passe
@TheHiphopjoe You have to understand that in the media anything that concerns Diana Ross it is always meant to be negative against her. I have followed THE WIZ for over 30 years and have many books about behind-the-scenes of the film printed by UNIVERSAL STUDIOS that I have had for 30 years and NOT ONCE is Stephanie Mills mentioned or considered for this role
@TheHiphopjoe Internet sites like Wikipedia and others are always bashing Diana and making it seem as though she backstabbed against Mills to get this role but actually UNIVERSAL MOVIE Executives informed Motown that they would not finance the film UNLESS Diana Ross was in the film once she showed interest in the roll. Mills was never considered for this film but believe what you will :)
Read what you just said. (UNIVERSAL MOVIE Executives informed Motown that they would not finance the film UNLESS Diana Ross was in the film once she showed interest in the roll.) EXACTLY. Diana had no business with her coked out, skinny old butt calling in and asking for Stephanie's roll. Of Course Universal did what it did. Ross was a megastar at the time. She DID screw Mills.
@kc6cfb If this was Stephanies roll then Stephanie would have been in the film. No way was White Hollywood gonna invest money on a barely known BLACK stage performer in the 1970's to carry a major motion picture. They barely do it now. Like i said before. If this was Stephanies roll then she would have been in the filme. I rest my case.
Michael, you and Diana Ross made a perfect duet when you did "Ease on Down the Road", and I for once am proud of you. Now you're waiting for the day when she will ease on down the golden road in heaven together. Rest in peace.
