Michael Jackson's failed comeback

Say it ain't so, Michael!

This article from CNN News cruelly exposes his crappy 'comeback' performance at the World Music Awards in London. Apparently his voice cracked, he looked weird and uncomfortable (as opposed to the other 99% of the time, perhaps?), he piked on singing Thriller (probably for the best...we prefer to remember the awesomeness, rather than be confronted with the modern truth) and he did the usual and lame "I love you!" routine to the crowd. On the whole, a resounding failure of a show. Oh Michael, what happened? 750 million albums sold, squillions in Beatles royalties, and you blew it all on ten tons of plastic surgery, a monkey, three camouflaged children, payouts to Jordy Chandler and his creepy gold-digging mother and that awful tacky giant painting of you in the nude with the clouds and the gilt framing and the floating cherubs. Probably not the best move, now that one considers it.
