Jesse Jackson to Suicidal Michael Jackson Fans: Suck it Up
by Free Britney at .Michael Jackson's death is sad, and it is tragic.
It is not, however, something that should traumatize his fans, nor is this the end of the world. The Rev. Jesse Jackson says this and we have to agree.
Amid reports that distraught fans of Michael are becoming suicidal, the friend of the music icon is urging fans to get it together and "keep hope alive."
"This is a time when hearts are heavy. There is great pain but great cause to celebrate Michael's life," Jesse Jackson says. "It made Michael happy saying 'We Are the World.' Don't self destruct. We fall down sometimes, we get back up."
"That's the right thing to do. In Michael Jackson's name, let's live together as brothers and sisters and not die apart as fools."
MJ'S LEGACY: Michael Jackson is survived by the children he raised (Arnold Klein was the biological father). Jesse Jackson wants us to honor the star, not kill ourselves.
According to the U.K.'s Sky News and Gary Taylor, president and owner of the fansite MJJCommunity, at least 12 ardent fans have committed or attempted suicide in the aftermath of the superstar's death at age 50 on Thursday afternoon.
Pavel Talalayev, a Russian MJ impersonator who underwent plastic surgery to look like his idol, was among the first to attempt to take his own life.
The Barcelona Reporter is reporting an additional fan death in Tunisia.

By all means, let's listen to Jesse Jackson, the biggest hypocrite on earth. Maybe he should remember to check his microphone before he speaks, so he won't sound like a total moron babbling all that cr*p about being brothers and sisters.
