Yeah right there's some peeling that allows people to lighten their skin like MJ and it never been commercialized. STFU Quincy.
I had vitiligo when little. It was focal in point. Just a few spots that grew bigger but eventually was treated. I'm tired of people talking about this disease as fi it doesn't exist or think there's a product to make you white.

Even though some folks are talking bad about Quincy's statements about Michael Jackson's kids, here's what I think. Even though Q's children are half white, they are just that, half white. Michael Jackson's children are white as snow. If Michael didn't want to be white, why does he not adopt a black child or at least a half black child? Answer-because he wanted to be white! Stop critisising Q! I am glad there is someone who will tell the truth. I like Michael Jackson for his charity work and his music, but face the facts, he wanted to be white.

Yeah Michael was a gorgeous man back in the day. I wish that he didn't have such a comple about the way he looked. I think Quincy is the type of person that just tells it like it is whether people like it or not. However I don't think he can't talk about Mike too much because all his kids are mixwd with white and you never see him with no sistas on his arm. It's like the pot calling the kettle black. It would have been nice if Michael got with a black woman and had black children but you can't deny the fact that he did love his kids regardless if they are white.

Because we loved Michael (given his music was often the soundtrack to our lives) we ignore the clear obvious that he was very wierd and clearly hated his Blackness

U know what? Quincy you are a total traitor! If I even thought what you thought, I would not have ever said this. I would have never given the media more fuel to add to the fire! Shame on u and I hope MJ's family has nothing to do with u in the future. A part of your soul, he's your little brother...you're full of crap!

Quincy sure may be talented but he sounds as dumb as a door nail in interview. He may tell it like it is, but he must be hard pressed finding some class!
if he is upfront, why wouldnt he confront him about all these issues he thought was going on in his head? if you dont step up to the plate and try help, your just as much part of the problem..

@ lolafola:
Priciesly! (sp) That's exactly what I thought. The minute he mentioned about the kids, I remember back to seeing his daughter on Access Hollywood talking about Micheal's pet monkey, Bubbles, and she looked white as as sheet. I was shocked.
"Q: Did you ever discuss it? Did you ever ask, "Michael, don't you want to be a black man?"
A: No, no, no, please. That's not the way you do it. "
EXCUSE ME!? That's damn straight how you do it. He was always set in his ways? Please. I understand that it was like dealing with a drug addict (which Micheal was) but really hasn't been the root problem that people were giving up on setting Micheal straight? He's father was a dick, telling him he was never attractive, made fun of at school, had no sense of childhood. No, I'm not making excuses for Mike's crappy behaviour of the past 25 years. I'm saying, as much as I respect Quincy's honesty, if people were being more up front with Mike constantly then be all "yes, yes, yes" and "fine Mike, ahve it your way", he problably wouldn't be DEAD now! Yeah, it's his life, but if I were Mike's close friend, I would be damn not for him to shit is life up. I'm sorry, but I would do as much as I can to help a man out, especially if he was never right in the head. That's how set I AM in my ways. Call your own bluff, Quincy.

As for Quincy, he needs to STFU. I've never even seen that man with a black woman. All of his wives and girlfriends were white. He obviously has a complex about his race himself because he dates exclusively outside of his race. He is in no place to judge Michael when all of his kids are half white.
