For all the “I just don’t like her laugh, people,” please tell me if these high gas prices, lawless losing war, high unemployment, blatant corruption, or racist assault on representation by the confederate south was worth not having to hear her laugh?

People don’t understand how famous Michael Jackson was. Nobody else came close. He was known in every 3rd world country as well as the west. He couldn’t PA at nightclubs or restaurants like other celebs. No sitting court side at NBA games or ring side at boxing events. Why? Because fans would just cause chaos and shut the place down. People don’t understand that level of fame. The whole world tuned in to watch the thriller premier, before social media and YouTube etc. He could sing, dance, choreograph, hardly did interviews, aura was another level, world leaders would ask to meet him. Roads shut down when he was staying at hotels etc. Nobody before or since can compare, stop these lame comparisons. People used to faint when they saw him in person. It was insane and unheard of. There will only be one Michael Jackson and never again will we witness such talent and aura. Never.

“Michael” is off to a record-breaking start. The Jaafar Jackson-led biopic pulled in $97M domestically and $217M worldwide, marking the biggest opening weekend ever for a music biopic. Read more #OnTheGrio thegrio.com/2026/04/27/mic…

After the death of Dr. Cerina Wanzer Fairfax, Brandon Scott called out men who stay silent, saying too many “don’t check their homeboys for stuff that leads to stuff like this.” More #OnTheGrio: thegrio.com/2026/04/18/bra…
