The new GQ will feature a Michael Jackson cover story titled, “When Michael Was Cool.” You see, Michael‘s coolness quotient slipped a little during the last 16 years of his life when he was revealed to be a homosexual pedophile. Remember when Norm Macdonald used to make “Michael Jackson is a homosexual pedophile” the punch line of every Michael Jackson joke? Funny because it’s true! Michael Jackson was a homosexual pedophile. If you have any objection to that statement, feel free to read every one of Maureen Orth’s fascinating articles about him, all collected over at Vanity Fair for your convenience: they’re right here.
Debate over, right? I mean, it’s fine to be gay, and even “cool” if you do it in an Andy Warhol or Morrissey kind of way, but being a practicing homosexual pedophile isn’t cool unless you were a guest at Plato’s symposium. It’s safe to assume Michael Jackson wasn’t – he only drinks wine out of Coke cans. The point of this post is that Jermaine Dupri just Twittered his dissatisfaction with the title:
HOT COVER WACK @SS TITLE. SEE THIS IS THE SH*T THAT…
… PISSES ME OFF PEOPLE WANNA USE THIS MAN TO MAKE THEM MONEY BUT CONTINUE TO THROW LIL SNEAK DISSES. AS FAR AS ANY FAN WOULD SAY, HE WAS COOL HIS WHOLE LIFE. I SAY THAT BECAUSE THE FANS ARE THE ONES THAT’S GONNA MAKE THIS COVER SELL 3 TIMES MORE MAGAZINES THAN THE LAST ONE SO WHY TITLE IT THIS?
Oh, by the way, Jermaine Dupri types in all caps LIKE A NOT VERY SMART PERSON. WHY DOES ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY TYPE LIKE THIS? CAPS LOCK WORKS BOTH WAYS.

Grant, shouldn’t you be writing for some kind of Mormon publication, with your narrow mind and judgmental assumptions? I wasnt a huge MJ ban but he was not found guilty of child molestation and to assert that he was, in fact a “homosexual pedophile” is irresponsible on your part. Are you 12 years old? I ask only because your writing would indicate that as your maximum developmental age. Also, I’m sure gay men around the world are relieved that you have declared “it’s fine to be gay.” What a relief that you have given the ok on being gay. I wish you would indicate who writes which posts on here so I could be sure to skip yours. Please grow up and open your narrow mind.
Grant, is it? First of all you might want to get your facts straight before you publish an article on the internet for hundreds of thousands of people to read. You in fact are not very smart. For someone who makes a lot of ‘judgment’ and ‘declares the truth’ you sure are biased and most likely have NO IDEA what you are talking about. People like you make me sick, literally, and ashamed to be associated with any media outlet. Michael Jackson was the greatest and kindest entertainer the world has ever seen, and as far as I am concerned, he lives on and articles like this false garbage will never ever destroy his legacy.
