Has anyone else seen the footage of Michael Jackson dangling a baby (thought to be his own 3 month old son) over the edge of a hotel balcony with a towel over it's head - and almost dropping him?!!

I just couldn't believe my eyes, it was totally disgusting. I never liked him before, but now I dispise him.

But did anyone notice the woman in the background who opened the window for him? She was laughing when he came back in! This whole thing makes me beyond mad, I can't even type properly.

I thought Michael Jackson had split from his wife quite some time ago and paid her off so he could keep the kids. Is this child supposed to be from their marriage?

I just saw the pictures in the paper today - disgusting! I just hope someone in social services saw it too and will take immediate action. He should be locked up with his bloody chimp!

Rhubarb, what's the poor chimp done to deserve that sort of treatment?? Lets start a 'Free Bubbles' campaign!!

The MJ story was in the Indonesian papers today but there was no comment about what he did to the baby. Just said MJ 'showed off his baby to the crowds.'

SueDonim...if you have Real Player there is a clip of the footage on this page by 'The BBC's Navdip Dhariwal'

I have always thought MJ is a can short of a 6 pack. Baffles me tho' why after his history, he is allowed to conceive/raise/adopt kids. And I was absolutley horrified to see the news clip of him dangling that poor babe - it was clearly terrified, kicking its little legs about. God, what are the authorities doing allowing him around children? And his FACE!!! Another thread I think.....still furious!

aloha · 21/11/2002 12:27

I know - and what is this with putting cloths over the children's heads? Babies HATE this. Did you see the poor mite's frantic wriggling and kicking. And he held him so precariously. He's just so cruel to those children and shockingly he was visiting Germany to attend some kind of event connected with CHILDREN'S CHARITY???!!! What kind of kid's charity would want to be associated with a suspected child molester and complete freak? In America, however, children are just possessions that can easily be bought by the rich and famous. Liza 'fruitcake' Minelli and her not-at-all-gay Judy Garland-worshipping husband have bought some poor three year old now. As for MJ's wife, Debbie Rowe, well she makes me sick too. She sold her own flesh and blood children to that monster, which makes her as bad if not worse in my book. Nobody seems to know where his latest victim has come from - he and his wife divorced long ago (not that that relationship was remotely normal) and she never sees the older kids, I understand. He paid her a fortune, just like he paid Jordy Chandler's parents a fortune after the boy's 'sleepovers' at his house. What does he have to do to have those children rescued from him?

thumper · 21/11/2002 12:34

aloha, no, please dont hold back, tell us what you really think!! I happen to agree with everything you said. It really is a case of poor little rich guys. I also couldnt believe the pictures of the two eldest in the zoo yesterday, dressed in completely inappropriate clothes with drapes over their heads. They looked so unhappy. The zoo was closed just for them, surely it should have been a case of jeans trainers and a good run about?

jessi · 21/11/2002 12:48

He shouldn't be allowed to have kids, he is clearly a lunatic. Surely they must have social services or such like in the US to investigate him and his abilities as a father?

Any ideas on how to make a formal complaint in Germany anyone? Any German mumsnetters out there?

Bobbins · 21/11/2002 13:11

I think the two older kids look like they are acting in some horror film in those picures of them at the zoo. Creepy.

SueDonim · 21/11/2002 14:20

And have you seen Liza Minelli's comments about it??? She has an issue with the word 'dangle' apparently. He wasn't dangling the baby, he was 'holding it above the rail'. And the camera angle was odd. Ri.i.i.i.i.ght. Glad that's all been sorted then.

GeorginaA · 21/11/2002 14:37

She obviously has some sort of reality disfunction then :P

aloha · 21/11/2002 15:19

Oh, god, they're friends. This just makes it all worse.

lou33 · 21/11/2002 15:23

And Uri Gellar says he has to talk with MJ first because he doesn't believe the baby was a real one, because he reckons MJ would never do such a thing. What a buffoon.

jessi · 21/11/2002 15:34

Heartened to read in paper that they are investigating him in the US and that he may be arrested once he gets back. Nobody knows where this third child has come from which is just too dodgy IMO.

Scatterbrain · 21/11/2002 19:39

And the German police are apparently investigating it too although they're not sure whether a crime has been committed ! Probably hasn't really - apart from the crime that IS MJ !!

megg · 22/11/2002 13:30

They've decided not to pursue as they say a crime hasn't been committed. Deliberately putting your child at risk isn't a crime then?

GeorginaA · 22/11/2002 13:32

Gah! Doesn't it go under psychological cruelty or something like that?! Can you imagine how terrified that child must have been!

lou33 · 22/11/2002 13:37

Can't he be charged with being in possession of an offensive face?

Tinker · 22/11/2002 14:18

lou33 - stop that. You made me burst out laughing at work!

lou33 · 22/11/2002 15:15

Sorry Tinker! Honestly tho whoever made that face should be arrested too, I mean my 5 year old could have done a better job. I would have thought it could come under child cruelty being forced to look at that every day.
