The Jacksons never looked happier then they did in this vintage photo that The WOW Report dug up from somewhere. (It’s Randy, La Toya, and Michael, au natural) After Michael Jackson had most of his plastic surgery and skin lightened, he tried to buy and destroy all the photos he could find of himself before the makeover. Because he was such a public figure it proved to be an impossible task, but he TRIED.

Mona, I agree with you completely, you are 100% correct in ALL you say about the deadly Stern. I, as Kathy so rightly identified so early on, knew Howard was a slimeball creep way back when Anna’s scary-disgusting show was on. What I could NEVER figure out was how she didn’t figure him out or anyone ELSE figure him out and get in ANNA’s ear. Maybe she was already too far gone by then. It sure looked like it. She appeared to have NO BRAIN whatsoever by then and was a disgusting fat, bloated, drugged up national joke with humomgous silicone tits she flaunted in everybody’s faces. She truly looked like the clown she later played by the pool when she was pregnant but too stoned to even remember she was pregnant and Howard asked her on camera if she had been taking “mushrooms”.
My belief is that Howard should be in jail for not only THAT little gem of abuse of a pregnant addict, but what it did to the little girl nearby who pleaded with him to take her to the hospital because she was scared and “something was wrong with Anna”. But Howard only filmed, laughing, in front of a scared and worried little girl and a dangerously drugged up and pregnant Anna.
I believe he murdered Daniel. He was also seen by the hospital employee flushing something down the toilet right afterwards. I believe Anna’s plea “You killed him Howard” which was overheard by employees to be true as well. Why it wasn’t pursued, I don’t know. All, I can say is don’t visit the Bahamas or Aruba because apparently there is no justice there when it comes to Americans.
I also think Stern killed the canary. He kept her so drugged up for so long trying to gain complete and utter control of all that stood in his way it was obvious and rediculous. That he had the nerve to claim that child as his and lengthen the time it took for Larry to get custody of his daughter is truly dispicible. He should be jailed for that alone. Why Birkhead didn’t press charges for that I don’t know but it pisses ME off and made the baby take that much longer before she could start bonding with the right parent. That she EVER had to have that creepy slimy disgusting murderer touch her at ALL makes me sick to death!
That he actually went on Larry King and sat there bold-facedly lying, KNOWING he was not the father and there was no chance he was. EVERYONE knew he ws gay and Anna NEVER let him touch her. She said countless times on her show right into the camera that he gave her the creeps and she’d NEVER do him. The only “love” he had for “her” was her money and things she owned and what he thought she might inherit. He’s THE absolute lowest form of life I have EVER seen and that circus of a show after she died, with the crying idiot “Judge” and Howard lying his ass off on the stand made me want to stand outside the courthouse with a highpowered shotgun and a good sight and pick off that looser Howard because it’s obvious the “law” is never going to do it’s job when it comes to him.
Reta:
Thank you so much for what you’ve written.
You reminded me of some of Stern’s “greatest hits” that I’d forgotten about from the show.
Will justice ever be served in this case? I couldn’t say. But the fact that Stern has “supporters” (i.e. himself, family members, etc.), who come out of the woodwork squawking MEANS NOTHING and is best left ignored.
Remember that for decades, a bunch of morons regularly chanted, “Leave Michael Skakel alone!”
Right up until the moment someone FINALLY put him away for murdering Martha Moxley.
And welcome back, Reta. You have been missed!
Anna DETESTED Stern because she KNEW he regarded her strictly as an ATM, nothing more.
She knew there wasn’t anything he wouldn’t do for a buck. Deep down—when she was lucid—she most likely saw the handwriting on the wall, foretelling her own fate.
Because just like Michael Jackson was to some, Anna Nicole was worth far more to Stern dead, than alive.
And infinitely less trouble that way, too. (Again, like Jackson).
Reta’s post also reminds us of the apparent “hazards” (many captured on camera) facing Dannielyn even before she was born.
Not everyone, it seems, was looking forward to the arrival of another potential heir to a certain estate.
“Miracle baby,” indeed.
And no, (because you’re probably wondering):
The Bahamas didn’t necessarily have to figure into the plans from an “extradition” standpoint.
Silly. That’s what Tel Aviv was made for!
My G-d. If only Bernie had been able to catch a lift to the airport. 🙁
Random news headline from the day:
“Retail giant Wal-Mart says it will soon bring back the sale of firearms at more than 500 US stores.”
One stop shopping, eh? Easier to stock-up that way, too.
Why, it’s almost as if someone is out there building a bunch of those fireworks stands—you know, like getting everyone ready
for the fourth of july.
“Hey, Daniel—you made it!
Man, you look beat.
But that’s perfectly understandable. LAX to
Miami, Miami to Nassau is a haul. That’s a
couple of time-zones, right?
Here take these.
They’ll help to relax you…
and to get you a good, long sleep.”
Anyone remember Anna from when she first appeared on the scene?
If you only knew of her during the latter part of her life, or from that pitiful* reality series, then you never saw what she was at first—and what made her truly special.
In the beginning in LA, she was an unknown model—and to use an over-used, but singularly appropriate word, she was stunning.
As in, when you first came across her photograph—those black and white shots, in a double-page ad for Georges Marciano Guess jeans—well, you just stopped.
And gawked—literally.
Arrested, mid turning-of-the-page, by the images of this big, blonde, healthy young woman, whose beauty was simply other-worldly.
Of course, in Hollywood it has become a time-honored cliche for pretty, young blonde women to try to capture even just the smallest measure of whatever it was that Marilyn Monroe had, and try to make it somehow their own (usually unsuccessfully).
But then, suddenly, there she was—some 20 years after Marilyn’s death—in the flesh, an incarnation.
Only, not exactly. Because what she really was, what you actually believed you were seeing, was someone who just had to be the secret daughter of Marilyn (and some anonymous Adonis).
The proof in front of your eyes was all that was needed. At that time in her life, Anna Nicole was perfectly beautiful.
Because she was an unknown when she appeared in those ads, some people thought that she was European. In fact, many assumed that she was the daughter of Anita Eckberg—the Swedish model and actress who had become, like Marilyn, a sex symbol.
In truth, Anna had been percolating (with a name that was not Anna Nicole) out in the sticks and scrub of Mexia, Texas—harboring, as another cliche goes, those big dreams.
When those iconic ads first hit public view in the LA Times Sunday magazine, you could practically hear the phones being snatched up around town as movie people clamored to know: “Who—IS THAT?”
Well they certainly found out in short order.
Nope, she didn’t have much acting talent, and after that audacious, bright beginning, things went south—quite gradually at first, and then very quickly near the end.
By the time the hangers-on and other assorted leeches got to her, she was pretty used up.
Excepting, of course, her potential for a big payout from the estate of her deceased husband. That made her worth keeping around. At least for a while.

*Watching the show was painful. But one real aspect of her life always seemed apparent in those broadcasts: her love and affection for her son, Daniel, and his for her.
Much more important are today’s headlines:
Black Whitney Houston had another drug addled performance in Birmingham UK again and also is reported to have returned to her lesbian roots!
lisa garrett of utah, kathy hubbard, wilma vice are paid bloggers. nobody cares for a junkie hooker who gave howard marshall (90) a blowjobs….
Ach! Enough with all this negativity! It’s pointless and has never brought anybody back from the dead anyway, right?
What people seem to conveniently forget is that after A LOT of planning, hard work and sacrifice, lawyer Howard K. Stern is now officially a HOMEOWNER!
And for that he deserves our congratulations and our praise. Not all this moaning and doom and gloom.
Let’s not forget that homeownership is nothing to take lightly in California!
Especially now days, what with all these deadbeats getting foreclosed-on and being thrown out in the streets where they belong!
This fact alone means that new homeowner Howard K. Stern is part of an elite group. MAZEL TOV!
(And confidentially, Howard, if you’re having any trouble getting the tenants to vacate your new home, just let me know. I am personally acquainted with a few wide-bodies who would more than happy to “assist you,” if you know what I mean. Like I said, just let me know.)
Howard, please keep us informed of your plans for the future. I wouldn’t want to miss your housewarming party for anything!
Michael the serial pervert!
Isn’t it OK that the judge handed over Anna’s house to Howard K. Stern, because Howard had said he knew what Anna intended to do with her money and stuff?
And even though the transfer of title to Howard K. Stern represented a material advantage (to say the least) to Howard K. Stern, and an obvious and egregious conflict of interest, didn’t Judge Steinsternberg or whatever do the right thing because, after all,
Howard K. Stern was Anna’s Executioner?
Oops! Some typos up there. My bad!
Enough with Anna!
It’s a safe bet that Larry Birkhead probably regrets that he didn’t petition to have lawyer Howard K. Stern removed as Anna’s Executor.
When Stern was embroiled in sundry criminal proceedings would have obviously been the perfect time to do it, but now, since Larry decided to sit tight, he’s going to be stuck with that tapeworm, dog-shit on the bottom of his shoe—choose your favorite metaphor—for a long time.
But didn’t some book say that Larry and Stern were actually in cahoots?
Yes, some alleged journalist named Rena or Renal or something, DID write a book purporting that Larry and Howard K. Stern were lovers and conspired to take Anna’s money together.
HUGE mistake.
Because Stern promptly sued her ass—as was appropriate. Since the allegations of the relationship (and other miscellaneous “errors”) seem to have sprung entirely from the imagination of the high functioning moron/authoress.
If she hasn’t settled by now—or doesn’t at some point, she’s likely to end up on the courthouse steps wearing a barrel and trolling for spare change.
As for Howard K. Stern, her buffoonery represents a stroke of good fortune, inasmuch as it’s (1) A chance to be attached to some positive news, and (2) Another payday!
Lucky, lucky Howard K. Stern.
But not as lucky as Larry Silverstein.
He was the new owner of the World Trade Center. And since his acquisition for pennies on the dollar, with borrowed money, a mere 6 weeks before the event, he had eaten breakfast EVERY MORNING at the top of one of the towers.
But not that fateful morning.
He had a “doctor’s appointment” that no one in his family knew about.
So Larry Silverstein missed breakfast that morning—and everything that followed it.
But maybe that’s a story for another time. 🙂
I like Michael Jackson for what is inside and understand that he went throw so many changes and he was lonely and sad and never had a childhood and that he missed out on so much and I understand that and feel the same way and when you have to grow up so fast and other people control your life and tell you what to do and where to go and how to do things.
This picture is something that reminds him of the pain of his future that was to come and in this picture,…None of the stressers and lonelyness has not happened to a large degree and that pressure and tentions and worries would follow him for year to come and this picture is Michael Jackson when he was younger and did not know what his life was going to guide him and show him another direction but it is his youth and it is family and Dear love ones that really loved and cared for him and shared life and ideas and plans and this is the pass and the door is opened toward the future.
The pass is what makes us who we are and we have a History and we have things we have to do in are lives and some times we have to reach out and gather help and look for mercy.
Please point me to the article where Micharl made these statements. I would love to see them. If you have any vintage Michael Jackson magazines, etc. you would know there are plenty of photos of Michael in the fro, etc. everywhere. If you ever even saw his mother’s tribute book that she did especially for his fans, you would know that. There’s no way in hell he coud have destroyed them and I doubt he ever said that he did. This is yet another attempt to dredge up some old negative rumors to start yet another boring conversation about Michael and his heritage. Time to give it up folks. Find another victim to terrorize and destroy. Michael’s legacy is being restored as you speak. While you’re here trying to raise the dead, Michael’s future is looking brighter than ever. You’re losing your power to encite by leaps and bounds. Stay here and keep yourselves deleriously entertained. Misery loves company. In the meantime, we’ll keep on making strides towards righting the wrongs. And guess what, we’re so WINNING (-:
And where, might I ask, is your actual PROOF that he ever tried to have this photo destroyed, or any pre-surgery photos at all? You make this claim, which in turn generates a bajillion comments in regard to this claim, yet you offer NOTHING substantial to actually back it up as verified fact. I am quite familiar with this particular photo and after several years of researching Jackson’s life extensively, have never heard of any such claim to destroy it. That being said, this was an era in which he was very self-conscious about his appearance-NOT bcause it was pre surgery-but because of his extreme acne. I think he did attempt to destroy some of those pics that were very unflattering as they revealed just how ravaged and pockmarked his face was during this time. However, he was not so stupid (as implied here) as to believe he could literally wipe out his whole past history. He was a Jackson, for crying out loud, and his whole life had been played out in front of the cameras. I do agree with most of the comments here that it’s sad he could never just realize and accept what a beautiful young man he was. But for that matter, he was never happy with his appearance at ANY stage of his life, before or after surgery.
Obviously as he grew older and weirder he became more ashamed of his blackness, as did the sisters. He was fawned over for a few songs and became ultra rich. He had it much better than did the BLACK blues singers of earlier days who had more talent and didnt make much more than a living. They were comfortable in their skin whereas Mike became a pervert who deserved the whip.
Yet Gene Simmons went on record last year — mind you, a year after MJ died — saying, “There is no question in my mind he molested those kids. Not a doubt.”
Michael should have been castrated and received the bull whip instead of being made a saint.
Now Gene is banned from a previously booked concert because of this statement of what most people believe is a fact. Has there been any follow up to see the kids that Michael molested and paid off….has their family stolen the money and the kids become card carrying fags? Enquiring minds want to know.
No more tributes to Michael the pervert and his greedy family!
Over time people change? It depends on the time in your life and what you are going throw that goes into a picture of a person…It is all about how you felt and what you where going throw that day…But all in all we all change and down the road we feel better about the way we dress and look and mature…But as far as Destroying pictures of yourself is hard to do? When you have people that love and care about you and want to remember that day…Getting your hand on pictures is hard and is something other people that love you are not going to allow you to get your hands on there pictures.
Sometimes people don’t feel good about themselves and alway want to look better and take better care of themself and or have problems with certain parts of there body and face and other areas and that is the reason people have Drs that specialize in that area of fixing you up and make you look the way you feel inside. But I am a lucky…I Like myself completely and would not change myself for the world but some people don’t like themselves but…Michael Jackson alway had the love of his fans Male and Female and this people would do anything to meet him and talk to him and get to know him better…..He is a wonderful singer and a wonderful dancer and most of all made this world a better place for me and my family and…I will always love him and believe in him until the day…I die…I am a true fan of his Art and Talent and when he died many of my friends where heart broken…This picture means allot to the world….Because it is the pass and it is a wonderful way of shareing a small part of his life with the world.
I Can see the Sun coming down on there heads and it must be a lovely day in this picture…But this picture is special and timeless…Because this family will never be together like that again and so it is nice to share this picture with us and allow the world to see Michael Jackson in a whole new way and that means changeing and becoming the person he is from this day foreward?
Some times it can be a bad day on a good picture? Trama or Drama that day made him feel spoiled inside?
When your day goes bad.. And your taking a picture all it reminds you of is that your day was bad to start off with..Remember the bad day in negative ways and it might had been something some one said to you or something bad might had just happened?
Thank you so much! It is definitely an fantastic webpage!|
