A lot of people don't seem to realize the significance of his passing... He was one of the most famous people to ever live. We may never have another human being, not to mention music artist that is ever as globally recognized and gifted with such talent as Michael Jackson. Expect this to be in the news for a while.

Well said, I agree. I don't expect her to release a deliberate, drawn out public statement; it'd just be nice if she made a quick mention of him in a TA/diary, just to show respect. Whether she was a fan or not, it'd just be a nice gesture, is all I'm saying. He had an incredible impact on the music world. I suppose some people of a younger age just don't understand that, and it's sad. He will be in the news for a while and remembered for his good heart, as it should be.
