'This Is It' Director Recalls Michael Jackson

Kenny Ortega helped design some of Michael Jackson's biggest tours, including his return, "This Is It." But in the singer's final days, the producer-director-choregrapher was also keeping tabs on Jackson's health and overall well-being. (Oct. 21)

GOD. AS SOON AS I THINK I'VE COME TO TERMS WITH MICHAEL JACKSON'S DEPARTURE I Hear a song or see something about him and want to cry. And I'm a grown ass man.... GOD I MISS EM...

Michael was the maestro the whole time, he played his life out like a movie - there is that ET clip of him playing chess with his son... you know, the game where you have to be thinking a few steps ahead of your enemies, know what they will do to you, the consequences... how it will all affect the public, right down to what would happen to the people of this planet when he died...

MJ's Always been the Maestro. he lived for us.

The fact that Mr. Ortega needs to tell the world 4 months after MJ's death that he "was also keeping tabs on Jackson's health and OVERALL well-being" (description above) is very VERY strange.. Ortega failed completely, because he worked very long and intense with Michael, who died the day after Ortega had seen Michael and SPOKEN with Michael. Feeding a 50 year old broccoli and chicken and make him drink is NOT normal...and Ortega KNEW that! That's exactly the reason why the fans get this video!!

Everybody, please do your "homework" and find out that Michael, who was a victim for decades of a true witch hunt by the press, all over the world, was murdered not only by his doctor! "It's conspiracy" Michael cried out many times. We are his fans and we need to listen to HIS words, not to the words of The Press/The Media and everybody else who let him down and is trying to convince us now.. Please, only listen to Michael his OWN words and do your research..

It's all for L.O.V.E.!!

LIARS!!!! This info is ONLY to cover up things..The Press has never done ÀNYTHING for MICHAEL òr HIS FANS. The Press is only trying to keep the fans happy after Michael was murdered.. EVERYBODY involved in His Life knew something was not right.. ALSO Mr. Ortega (his nervous smile is not real)! This video was made because something is not right at all!! "They are trying to KILL me" MICHAEL SAID shortly before he died! If Ortega was his brother, like he says in this video himsèlf (!) he KNEW that!

monuments should be arrected in his honor. statues, freakin pyramids, people.

RIP ANGEL!
