the fanatical treatment of the death of michael jackson is getting a little old.

in all honesty, wasn't the mj that everyone loved dead a long time ago?

what was left was a surreal caricature of of the once beloved musical genius. the pop icon was gone before he put out his last couple of albums.

Thanks The Soup for foreshadowing this one ages ago...

wonder if TLC will survive losing their only high rated show.

an untitled eddie murphy/romeo and juliet project is in the works as listed on imdb.

if he's in serious mode a la dreamgirls, it might not be too awful. but if they are working on a nutty/norbit/meet dave-ish take on shakespeare, i might have to find mr murphy and slap him.

hard.
