Michael Jackson gave me cocaine: Aaron Carter

London, July 1 : American singer Aaron Carter has claimed that late pop legend Michael Jackson gave him cocaine and alcohol when he was 15.

The "Crazy Little Party Girl" hit-maker, who spent a month in rehab earlier this year for "emotional and spiritual" issues, was friends with the King of Pop.

Carter, the younger brother of singer Nick Carter, revealed that he became so uncomfortable with Jackson's behaviour that his mother called the police.

"I never talked about it ... This is the first time. I do ... I miss Michael ... I have spent such incredible times with him. I did things with him that nobody else did ... But I was also troubled about what he did to me. Yes, he gave me wine. I mean, I could have refused, but I was 15," the 23-year-old told OK! Magazine.

"He gave me cocaine. I felt weird about that and other stuff ... We spoke afterwards, hours and hours, on the phone. I admired Michael, but his behaviour bothered me a lot. Then my mother called the police," he added.

He has been charged with involuntary manslaughter and faces a maximum four year state prison term if found guilty.3

Justin Timberlake Slams Justin Bieber: Put A Wig On A Chipmunk And Train It To Act Like A Black Man

Sony pop singer, Justin Timberlake, 30, took a jab at his replacement, Canadian sensation, Justin Bieber, 17, during a Saturday Night Live skit, using a German accent, the country the latter's line descended from. The monologue contained numerous items about Timberlake's real life and in an unsurprising move, he slammed young Bieber.

Justin Timberlake

The ski did not make it on the air during the televised show. However, it did appear online. Three months ago, the Judiciary Report wrote an article proclaiming Bieber had outstripped Timberlake as a pop star (Has Justin Bieber Dethroned Justin Timberlake As The Prince Of Pop). I knew he was jealous of Bieber. I also knew that article would get his goat (speaking of that, you sing like a goat on some songs, talking about the boy sounds like a chipmunk). Justin's just jealous (Timberlake that is...).

Oh, stars are so predictable. Timberlake is also unoriginal, because a month ago, I said Madonna, "Sounds like a chipmunk on crack" (Madonna: FBI And IRS Are Not Investigating Me). Months prior to that, I said Britney Spears, "Sounds like Alvin and the Chipmunks... on helium." (Britney Spears' Atrocious Vocals On New Song).

Bieber probably wants to do that to Timberlake right about now

Regardless, Timberlake copied Usher, who copied, Bobby Brown, who copied Michael Jackson, who copied James Brown and Jackie Wilson. So, I don't know what all the fuss is about. Very few modern, mainstream artists are truly original.

Physically Ill Toni Braxton Antagonized By Her Jealous Sister On Reality Show

UPDATE: Correction, "If You Don't Wanna Love Me" was released in 2000. The version of the song I heard had the incorrect date on it. However, Tamar debuted in 1989 with her sisters "The Braxtons" on the track "The Good Life" which predates Beyonce. Tamar's husband Vincent Herbert also produced music for Destinys Child, the group Beyonce debuted with in 1998.

Toni Braxton celebrating the launch of "Braxton Family Values"

Tamar Braxton's jealousy over sister Toni Braxton's success in the music industry, became very apparent in the third episode of "Braxton Family Values." Tamar was not camouflaging her envy and resentment, turning Toni's birthday dinner into a massive whine about her non-existent solo career. Everything was about her and the sisters showed their exasperation, as did Tamar's husband.

In fact, Tamar ruined Toni's birthday, by insulting all her sisters about their marriage problems, bragging that she is the one that knows what she is doing in relationships, as she is married to rich record executive, Vincent Herbert, who signed Lady Gaga. But with the way she treats Herbert, one wonders how long their marriage will last.

Braxton Family Values

Tamar nags him incessantly about re-launching her as a solo artist, after her self-titled debut album in the mid 90s failed to go gold, selling 100,000 copies, resulting in her being dropped from her record deal. In listening to the 90s song "If You Don't Wanna Love Me" by Tamar, it is very apparent, she is the singer Beyonce has been trying to emulate for over a decade, when she debuted with Destiny's Child in 1998.

Tamar also insulted and berated Toni for not wanting to go out much, labeling her the "Fun Police." However, she needs to remember her sister has been battling breast cancer, lupus and heart issues. When one is physically sick and on medication, it drains the strength from one's body and one's desire to go out and have fun, due to literal fatigue and sometimes malaise. Pushing a sick person to go to the club is not a good idea.

Toni Braxton prior to the reality show "Braxton Family Values"

Some may be wondering about the slight puffiness of Braxton's face on the reality show, which is most likely due to the fact, people on medication and those who have undergone many medical procedures, sometimes retain water and other fluids in the face. Medication sometimes alters the way the body stores and processes water.

And speaking of faces, the shot of Tamar's wedding photo with Herbert, shown on last nights episode, confirms what I have thought from the show's debut, she had a nose job. Tamar has the same altered nose Lil Kim, Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson and Latoya Jackson had at one point. The sad thing is there was nothing wrong with their noses. Being in an industry with flashbulbs constantly going off, poor lighting and the wrong make-up, will make black, Jewish and Hispanic people's faces, particularly the nose, look different than in person. This leads to many getting a nose job.

Justin Bieber Voted One Of The Most Influential People In The World, But Can You Imagine If Joe Jackson...

Were His Granddad!

Justin Bieber

17-year-old pop singer, Justin Bieber, has been voted one of the most influential people in the world. Bieber 's had a whirlwind rise to fame and fortune, earning over $100,000,000. That can buy a lot of haircuts. The young singer is currently touring Malaysia and was spotted reuniting with his girlfriend, actress, Selena Gomez, at a local airport.

The Jacksons in the 1970s

You know what I'm thinking. No, not that I'm the most humble and best blogger in the world (even though I am). Somewhere Joe Jackson is wishing that Justin Bieber were his grandson (so he could pimp him).

I saw this on a parody site and it is so wrong (LOL)

Can you imagine Joe Jackson running after Justin Bieber with a belt like in the movie. Joe would be yelling at Justin, "Pick up that brick...now put it down!" "go break a switch off that tree" "go practice your turns and tossing your hair in the mirror for an hour...and don't touch my guitar!" I'm just playing Joe - don't get mad (translation: I don't want the belt either).

Lady Gaga Lies About Not Having Plastic Surgery

Lady Gaga

Over the top singer, Lady Gaga stated she has never had plastic surgery. However, before and after photos on the internet, indicate she has had work done. Particularly on her schnoze. Gaga's honker got a whole lot smaller after her first royalty check came in.

She had a Michael Jackson nose, you know, in his jheri curl days. Jackson said the nose job helped him breathe better. Well of course, he took the whole nose off for the holes to get fresh air. I'm just kidding.

Why is girlfriend lying about plastic surgery, which is so common in Hollywood. That's the reason why so many people in Hollywood look alike (black and white). They go to the same surgeons, who have the same vision of what beauty is, which sometimes equals plastic. Loads of it. As a result, everyone ends up getting the same nose, cheeks, breasts and butt (from a catalogue).

Michael Jackson's Ex-Sister In-Law Set To Stab The Family In The Back With A Scandalous Tell-All

Katherine Jackson and son Michael Jackson

Alejandra Oaziazi, the sister-in-law of the late pop singer, Michael Jackson, is set to betray the Jackson family with a scorching tell-all book. Oaziazi has lived a luxurious lifestyle at the Jackson compound in Encino, California, for the past 20 years and refuses to leave the premises, in order for the home to undergo a renovation.

This is very inconsiderate, as Katherine Jackson, seeks to update her home in the wake of her son's death, while she raises his three bereaved children. Oaziazi is really digging her heels in. This is in spite of the fact she was offered a $600,000 condo belonging to the Jackson family. However, Oaziazi deemed it was not good enough.

Alejandra Oaziazi and Jermaine Jackson

Oaziazi's sense of entitlement stems from the fact, she not only had sex with and married two Jackson brothers, Jermaine and Randy, she also had children by them both. Jermaine Jackson, who fell behind in his child support payments insists, she refuses to leave.

Jackson says this is because, Oaziazi has "maids and servants" at the compound at a cost of $60,000 per month to the family. He implies she is lazy and stated Oaziazi refuses to work. He also insists his late brother stopped coming around the property, because he did not like her. Ouch!

Jackson family compound in Encino, California

Under the law, Oaziazi is entitled to financial assistance in the form of alimony payments and child support. However, refusing to leave the Jackson compound, paid for by Michael Jackson for his mother and as such, is a property she has no financial stake in, is wrong. Betraying the family's trust with a tell-all is even worse.

I don't agree with some of the things the Jacksons do, but can you imagine someone living around you for 20-years, then treacherously deciding to write a scandalous tell-all book about all your private moments at home. It is a betrayal of trust. Furthermore, can you imagine what she has witnessed living there for the past two decades, through family scandal, after family scandal and what she would write. It would be very damaging to the family.

Is Hollywood Making America Crazy

The Great Depression

A second study has stated mental illness is significantly up in America. A few months ago, the first study stated, 1 in 5 Americans is struggling with mental illness (One in five Americans had mental illness last year). The most recent study released indicates, America, more than any other nation in the world, is prone to bipolar mental disorder, which is serious. Bipolar is the cousin of schizophrenia.

However, it was not always like this in America, which leads me to wonder, if this new breed of Hollywood insanity, courtesy of the cults Kabbalah and Scientology, who interpolate their sick teachings into television shows, movies and music, is creating mental illness in people.

Kabbalah member Britney Spears during a psychotic break

Hollywood, now more than ever, under the direction of Kabbalah and Scientology cult members, have released music, films and television shows that are very mentally disturbed and dark. People are commenting on it. A number of high profile Hollywood stars and behind the scenes people involved in these cults and their subsequent productions, are clinically insane and have experienced very public psychotic episodes.

Even the mainstream ABC News program "20/20" did a feature last week, asking out loud, why so many Hollywood stars are mentally ill. People are noticing it. If you look at the Anthony Pellicano criminal case, for a detailed glimpse into the criminal and crazy activity that goes on in Hollywood, from illegal wiretapping and hacking to assault and attempted murder, you will begin to understand the mental illness running rampant in tinseltown.

Kabbalah member Charlie Sheen during an internet rant betraying his insanity

Hollywood is home to the two most mentally ill cults ever, Kabbalah and Scientology. Kabbalah is the worst of the two, as they openly tout "inducing schizophrenia" - meaning illegally creating situations in innocent people's lives to bring out the severe, incurable mental disorder.

Members of Kabbalah include, Madonna, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Christina Aguilera, Lady GaGa Charlie Sheen, Kim Kardashian, Kesha, Steve-O, Rosie O'Donnell, Roseanne Barr, Simon Fuller and Simon Cowell, among others. Deceased members include Michael Jackson, DJ AM and Brittany Murphy.

Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah Winfrey's couch

Scientology is a mentally ill and dangerous cult. Their sick, medically unsound practices have led to the deaths of dozens of members, as featured on the website http://www.xenu-directory.net/mirrors/www.whyaretheydead.net. Leaked cult documents and videos reveal their attempts at gaining a foothold in the highest corners of power, ordering cult members to infiltrate world governments, NASA, school boards and organizations involved in political policy making.

These sick cults in Hollywood are placing mentally disturbing items from their insane organizations into music, movie and television scripts and it is damaging the mental health of Americans. In the 1980s and early 1990s, Hollywood made films, shows and music that were not dark and sick. However, since Kabbalah and Scientology began going mainstream, things went straight downhill.

Parents all over the country have complained that Hollywood's programming and music has become very dark, depraved and demented. People have flooded message boards and feedback sections, condemning the terrible themes present in today's entertainment.

When people are exposed to such detrimental entertainment, over and over again, it becomes conditioning that deteriorates mental health. Hollywood is incapable of making normal movies and music anymore. Almost everything has become weird and sick, because they have let the cult inmates run the asylum.

Some online dislike the new look, while others think it is okay for the 21-year-old singer. His hair color will not make any difference in light of the fact his image problem extends to the fact he beat and nearly choked his girlfriend Rihanna to death.

Rihanna and Chris Brown

The Judiciary Report was proven right again regarding the site's consistent claims, Brown, as wrong as it was, violent beat Rihanna, after she flew into one of her crazy, standard rages and began hitting him. Nonetheless, it was wrong and couples should not be hitting each other. It's not right for a man to hit a woman and vice versa.
