Dave Dave: Michael Jackson Was Like A Father To Me

Longtime Michael Jackson friend Dave Dave appears on "Larry King Live" on the day of Jackson's funeral. "I am happy to have been his friend for all these years," Dave said. "He was almost like the father I have never had."

Dave Dave - nee David Rothenberg - basically disowned his father after he set him on fire back in 1983; Jackson paid for his surgeries. Dave changed his name "to liberate myself from my father's criminality."

FUCK THIS SHIT MICHAELS ALIVE LET ME EXPLAIN WHY,First off dave dave has BLUE eyes not brown, 2nd he doesn't talk like that! michael has this stuffy kind of voice it sounds like the person is trying to alter there voice, I believe people were after michael and or he couldn't take the stress so he had family and close friends help him and probably made some sign confedentialitys to keep silent and his 2 older kids sliped up at the awards and jermaine sliped on an interview, the jacksons can act!

Funny because I've read Moonwalk and Dancing The Dream. Nowhere in EITHER of those books does MJ talk or mention Dave. If they're this close or were this close where are the other pictures of them together? Where is Bad, Dangerous, HIStory, and Invincible era Michael? We only have one picture of them together and that's Thriller era.

Michael also didn't purchase Neverland until 1988.

Is it just me, or does the suite that Dave Dave is wearing seem way oversized? Is this a clue that it is not Dave Dave?

"Why Dave Dave?"

"Well, to liberate myself from the confines of my father's criminality...."

"He caused the fire?"

"Yep, he, he is a criminal and he, uhhh, caused all this. To, to free myself of his name and his legacy I decided to become my own person through changing my name."

It's so fucking obvious it's insulting.

david rothenberg had a movie made about his fathers actions, if dave had mike paying for his surgery , he might have asked the surgeons to reconstruct himself more like mike

@slumlordable Look closer at the California seal that was shown during the breaks of the trial. There are 32 stars, but the real seal have 31. The trial is not real, it's an act. Remember, just because it's in print doesn't mean it's the gospel.
