WHEN TALKING ABOUT ADAM LAMBERT, GENE SIMMONS OF KISS SAYS HE THINKS LAMBERT KISSED HIS CAREER GOODBYE WHEN HE STARTED TALKING ABOUT BEING GAY!

SIMMONS SAYS 'NO ONE REALLY CARES ABOUT HIS SEXUAL PREFERENCES.....NOW THAT HE TOOK THE ATTENTION OFF HIS MUSICAL ABILITIES, HE'S DONE. HE ALSO ALIENATED A HUGE PART OF HIS FAN BASE! THE MASSES DON'T LIVE IN L.A. THEY LIVE IN WISCONSIN AND NEBRASKA, AND YOU'RE ON CRACK IF YOU THINK THE SAME RULES APPLY THERE!'

YOU CAN SEE MICHAEL JACKSON PRACTICE FOR HIS UPCOMING SHOWS JUST 2 DAYS BEFORE HIS DEATH:

ACCORDING TO A CNN POLL, A LITTLE OVER HALF OF AMERICANS ASKED SAY THAT THEY ARE MICHAEL JACKSON FANS. 51% SAID THEY ARE, WHILE 49% SAID THEY ARE NOT.

THE YOUNGER GENERATION (UNDER 50) SAY THEY LIKED JACKSON'S MUSIC WHILE THOSE OVER 50 'DIDN'T GET' HIM.

WHAT WOULD YOU SACRIFICE FOR A WEEK BEFORE GIVING UP YOUR CELL PHONE?

BEST BUY ASKED, AND THIS IS WHAT AMERICA SAID:

6 OUT OF 10 OF US SAID BEER! THEY WOULD GIVE THAT UP FOR A WEEK BEFORE GIVING UP THEIR CELL PHONE! (OBVIOUSLY MILWAUKEE WAS NOT ASKED TO JOIN THIS SURVERY....)

3 OUT OF 10 SAID 'TAKE THE TV BEFORE MY CELL PHONE!'

2 OUT OF 10 SAID THEY WOULD RATHER EAT BREAD AND WATER FOR A WEEK RATHER THAN GIVE UP THE CELL PHONE FOR A WEEK.

AND BELIEVE IT OR NOT, 1 OUT OF 10 SAID THEY WOULD RATHER HAVE THEIR TEETH DRILLED BY A DENTIST BEFORE GIVING UP THEIR CELL PHONE!!

THE NEW ATTRACTION AT THIS YEAR'S IOWA STATE FAIR IS THE BUTTER JACKSON!!!

THIS SUMMER'S FAIR PLANS TO SHOWCASE THE FAMOUS BUTTER COW RIGHT ALONGSIDE A SCULPTURE OF MICHAEL JACKSON- ALSO MADE OF BUTTER. THE SCULPTURE WILL SHOW THE POP STAR DOING THE MOONWALK.

JACKSON DID PLAY THE IA. STATE FAIR IN 1971 WHEN HE WAS 13.

HER NAME IS NONA PARIS LOLA ANKHESENAMUN JACKSON AND SHE'S JUST A GIRL WHO CLAIMS THAT SHE IS THE ONE.....

A SUIT HAS BEEN FILED IN THE L.A. COUNTY COURTHOUSE STATING THAT SHE IS MICHAEL JACKSON'S WIFE AND SHE IS DEMANDING THAT ALL OF JACKSON'S PROPERTIES, MONEY AND ASSETS BE TRANSFERRED IMMEDIATELY TO HER ACCOUNT. SHE ALSO WANTS THE BODY OF MICHAEL JACKSON. AND THE KIDS. SHE SAYS THEY ARE ALL HERS, HERS, HERS! 

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE THAT SHE WAS OR IS MARRIED TO JACKSON. LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

ACCORDING TO RELATIONSHIP EXPERTS, THERE ARE THINGS THAT ALL COUPLES SHOULD ARGUE ABOUT!

-MONEY

-CHORES

-HOW MUCH TIME YOU SPEND TOGETHER

EXPERTS ALSO SAY THAT YOU AND SWEETIE SHOULD ALSO 'DISCUSS' SUCH THINGS AS RAISING THE KIDS, HEALTH ISSUES AND SEX. THEY ADD THAT FOR THOSE COUPLES WHO INSIST 'OH, POOKIE AND I NEVER ARGUE!'   THEY SHOULD TRY IT! OTHERWISE THEY MAY NOT BE COMMUNICATING AT ALL.

BUBBLES THE CHIMP IS ALIVE AND WELL AND LIVING AT THE 'CENTER FOR GREAT APES' IN FLORIDA. REPORTS SAY THAT TODAY BUBBLES IS QUITE ACTIVE, THROWS SAND WITH AMAZING ACCURACY AND IS VERY SENSITIVE.

BUBBLES IS ALSO A GREAT CAREGIVER HIMSELF, OFTEN TAKING CARE OF THE BABY CHIMPS AND LETTING THEM RIDE AROUND ON HIS BACK.

http://lifestyle.msn.com/relationships/articleglamourmatch.aspx?cp-documentid=19480585&gt1=32023

A FEW ARTISTS HAVE BEEN APPROACHED TO FILL IN THE TOURING DATES LEFT BY MICHAEL JACKSON. 

JACKSON'S LONDON PERFORMANCES COULD BE REPLACED WITH TRIBUTE CONCERTS FROM MANY ARTISTS, INCLUDING TIMBERLAKE, COLDPLAY AND TAKETHAT, TO NAME A FEW.  

REMEMBER HEARING ABOUT THE 1500 PRISONERS ON AN ISLAND IN THE PHILLIPINES WHO ORGANIZED, PRACTICED AND DANCED TO 'THRILLER' SO FANTASTICALLY? HERE THEY ARE AGAIN, PAYING A FINAL TRIBUTE TO THE KING OF POP:

ACCORDING TO STUDIES (NO PUN INTENDED)....GYM CLASS IS THE MOST HORRID MEMORY OF ALL FOR WOMEN!
