His name has become synonymous with explosive take-off and unprecedented success, oblivion and humiliation. He became an icon of style, music, dance for several generations at once. A man who became a legend during his lifetime and after his death made no exceptions. Until now, there are many rumors, speculations and guesses around his unexpected and imminent death.
On June 25, 2009, the world literally shuddered at the news that the king of pop, Michael Jackson, had passed away. Hundreds of fans gathered in the squares and arranged flash mobs, the family figured out who would get the money and the singer's children, pathologists determined the cause of death, and the organizers of the grandiose concert tour decided what to do next. After all, the pop idol left for another world exactly before the start of his huge farewell tour, which promised to become one of the most memorable events in the world of show business. And precisely because of this, in the ranks of the mourners, the assumption began to be heard more and more that Michael … was alive.
Why did the version appear that Michael is alive
Talk that the king of pop was alive started when the first shock passed and people began to analyze the situation sensibly. It's no secret that in recent years the pop idol has become practically a beggar. His debts were in the millions of dollars. And precisely in order to rectify the situation, Michael Jackson agreed to a difficult show - "That's All", which was to become the final stage of his concert activity.
According to cashiers, tickets for Michael Jackson's farewell tour were sold for about $ 85 million. This is a huge fee that could significantly improve the financial situation of the pop king.
In total, it was planned to hold 50 full-fledged concerts with a difference between each of them just a few days. At the same time, the pop singer himself did not differ in iron health. Critics have repeatedly talked about his addiction to illegal drugs. And various manipulations with the skin and figure could not go in vain. In general, given the state of the artist, holding such an event practically meant suicide.
According to the official conclusions of doctors, in order to maintain himself in working condition, the singer took tranquilizers and other supportive drugs. The attending physician of the pop star assured that the singer could not sleep, so at night he took quite serious and strong tranquilizers.
As a result of nervous strain and taking a combination of incompatible drugs, and even in large quantities, the death of the king of pop came just a couple of weeks before the start of the grand tour, which Michael might not have survived, because was severely and physically and mentally exhausted.
Where did the rumors come from that Jackson's death was a scam?
The financial situation of the king of pop music left much to be desired. This fact is recognized by all economists who have studied the documents of the singer after his death and analyzed his income and expenses in recent years.
His death made it possible to solve these difficulties. Indeed, according to official data, within a few hours after Michael's death, sales of his albums have skyrocketed. His popular and almost classic album "Thriller" became the leader of the iTunes rankings. All other albums have climbed and entered the Top 40 hit parade. Sales of discs on June 26, 2009 increased 721 times, as a result of which the king of pop music topped the list of the richest deceased stars.
The official version of death is as follows: Michael Jackson died as a result of an overdose of propofol, a substance that has a sedative effect.
The death of Michael Jackson was the event of the century. Interest in the already extinct star has grown incredibly. That is why versions appeared that he himself was alive and simply disappeared from the eyes of all his fans and admirers. In addition, shortly before the singer's death, his manager dropped the phrase that there would be no tour - the day before, Michael would mysteriously disappear.
This theory is also supported by the observations of fans who have already seen Jackson several times moving behind the backs of the police. The popular shot where the singer lies in an ambulance with an incubation tube turned out to be old at all - it was taken back in 2007, when Michael was once again resuscitated.
In addition, video recordings were made showing how a man who looks like Michael Jackson comes out of the door of the very hospital, where the lifeless body of the artist was delivered some time before.
Also, fans were surprised to note at rehearsals that Michael moved like a young boy. And this despite the fact that he was a deeply tired and emaciated person. So many are still waiting for his resurrection and hope that they will again be able to hear their idol live.
