Wow, quite a strong statement considering separate pay-outs were received by the two in one form or another, from the likes of the BBC, the Police, Prosecutors. Gambaccini's was even described as a witch hunt - I can only deem from your comment 'old ****' that you are homophobic and that leads to the mentality of you making allegations 'both took advantage of vulnerable youngsters.' - I think that's called defamation of character (libel), let a lone a possible hate crime.
..and another #whynotme for those that met their star and didn't get molested. Surely they should be due compensation for the hurt feelings rejection created.
Jackson’s sexual depravity is evident in the messages that can be found in many of his songs. These are a few examples. Billie Jean – this was written when he had a fetish for lesbian tennis players who looked like Cliff Richard Beat It – this was during his dominatrix phase Smooth Criminal – this was an admission that he liked naughty, hairless boys You Are Not Alone – he wrote this one to sing to his victims house guests at bed time I’m Bad – just an admission that he was a bit pervy Also, Bubbles wasn't a real monkey. He was a Space Gobtroll from the planet Flum and was sent to mastermind the assassination of Frasier played by Kelsey Grammer.
Subjectively you didn't like his music (neither did I, a lot of it). Objectively, he had a wide vocal range, unlike RHC's favourite, Joni Mitchell, he could sing on key. Had a powerful voice, etc. Subjectively he was crap. Objectively he was very talented. Mentally he was a nutjob
Luvgonzo was very much a Prince fan instead. It's not unusual for people not to rate Jacko's music, I've heard ppl say the same about The Beatles. Can understand the reason why for both.
Back in the day (when Prince arrived) he was considered the Jacko alternative. Iirc he saw himself as that.
