Vote NOW for Michael to Win All 5 American Music Awards - The People Decide the Winner
Posted by Agripina on Oct 14, 2009 at 10:26 AMMichael has been nominated for 5 (FIVE) AMA awards BUT WE MUST VOTE IN ORDER FOR HIM TO WIN. The PEOPLE decide the winner.
Go to http://abc.go.com/shows/american-music-awards/vote -or- Google American Music Awards. You will need to register with the website to vote but it only takes seconds.
EMINEM is also nominated in categories with Michael and we all know how he MADE FUN OF MICHAEL and how much that hurt Michael per his interview with Geraldo. So, I personally won't vote for EMINEM in any category.
FOR THOSE THAT ARE BOYCOTTING ABC - These awards are about Michael. Even if you don't watch the show, please vote for him to WIN. This is about his Legacy as the King. Show the world that even in death - no one is better than Michael.
Michael needs ALL your votes so SPREAD THE WORD - FACEBOOK ETC.

Posted by anniemissmj on Oct 13, 2009 at 11:04 PMVote For Michael To Sweep The Board At The American Music Awards / Boycott Shmuley's Book / Let's Get Organized
Posted by Dazzlerillusio on Oct 14, 2009 at 8:56 AMOkay, so we all know 'This Is It ' is an old track, and we know the brothers are on it in order to earn performance royalties. And yes, it's upsetting to think that what Michael considered an acceptable standard before a song should be publicly presented has clearly not been adhered to; but as far as musical legacies go, I don't think Michael Jackson's is in any danger. His catalogue, hits and musical ascendancy are peerless. His music transcends race, language and generations, more than that - it is, like Michael - immortal. There is nothing left for him prove. I say this to remind some of the fans who have posted on here ( and who I know in reality are only saying negative things because they are grieving so hard and wanted this release to be amazing ); - that the real battle is not with Sony, who, like any commercial company are naturally seeking to maximize their yield and profit.
It is important that we, as fans, remember Michael Jackson's estate ( which directly benefits his children) will receive 80% of the monies and profit share earned from ticket sales of the movie, the album, opus, posters, exhibitions and so on. The estate is by no means in the clear yet solvency-wise as there are a high number of debt claims and suits that have been made against the estate that need to be honoured. We must keep in mind the bigger picture. We, the worldwide fan community need to be organized, clear-thinking and ready to send any release of Michael's to the top of the billboard ( and any other ) chart to make sure Michael stays heard, recognized and relevant. Save your anger and your energy for those who deserve it. You know who they are. The real battle lies in making sure that those who hurt and adandoned, slandered and ultimately contributed to the degradation and erosion of Michael's joy and spirit while he lived; do not now profit from his death. I am of course talking about Rabbi Shmuley, Ian Halpern, Nancy Grace, Diane Dimond, Gloria Allred, Martin Bashir and Tom Sneddon. Redirect your rage and your anger away from Sony who are simply doing what all record giants do, and instead let us join together and boycott Shmuley's book. There is no need to buy it, it is available for download on this very site.
The fight for Michael continues. Here is how you can help:
1: You can write a letter AND an email to Congresswoman's Lee's office in support of Resolution 600 - the proposal that seeks to have Michael honoured as a global humanitarian and musical legend:
The email address at Lee's office is: Shashrine.Thomas@mail.house.gov
( Congresswoman Lee's point of contact in her office. )
Postal address is: F.A.O Congresswoman Sheila Jackson-Lee
Washington Office
2160 Rayburn Building
Washington D.C 20515
2: Email Spike Lee who is championing Michael on his site: 40acresandamule.com
3: Lobby Mary A Fischer to write a new expose of her findings about the non-validity and lies behind the 1993 allegations Michael faced at: info@ maryafischer.com
4: Lobby Thomas Mesereau to add his considerable legal expertise to the worldwide movement for vindication of Michael's name re the 1993 allegations by emailing him at: info@mesereauyu.com
All communication with the above must be spell-checked, articulate and professionally set out, in order for it to be taken seriously. Simply state that you wish to be involved in the growing worldwide movement for Vindication of Michael's name as regards the allegations he faced during his life, and you also wish to add your name to the lobby for the passing of Resolution 600. These people need to know there is a worldwide groundswell of public opinion out there that supports the work they are already doing. These are the places where we should be applying our energy and our justified outrage, not Sony.
Finally:
" We, the worldwide fan community who love, respect and honour Michael Jackson are united in our defiance of Shmuley's act of betrayal. We do not support this book in any way. It is a total violation of Michael's right to privacy and we believe the publication of the content of these tapes to be a breach of the trust Michael placed in Shmuley. We, the worldwide fan community will not join Shmuley in his betrayal and we will not help him profit from his deception of Michael. Not only will we not buy the book, we also send a clear message to all others who seek to attack the truth, beauty and integrity of Michael's memory. This statement is a declaration of our intent. We, as a community will not support or tolerate any such attacks, but will actively protect Michael's legacy and rights - not only for Michael and his children who survive him, but for all of us who choose to honour what Michael achieved, endured and gave here. He lives whenever and wherever he is remembered. And we choose to remember him with love. "
All of us can now play our part in refusing to allow Shmuley, or anyone else for that matter, to distort the truth of Michael's beauty, innocence and integrity.
We will be there now.
Please vote for Michael now to sweep the Board at the American Music Awards:
