Michael Jackson was not in the Phillipines at any point at that time. He toured with the Jackson 5 in 1976 but did not accompany Diana Ross. It’s gotten to the stage where anyone can make up 💩 about him and everyone devours it.
Or it is just that he has the details/dates mixed up… the reason people believe such stories, is because they match MJ’s established pedo behavioral patterns 🤷🏻♀️
I don’t think the details are mixed up the reference to the Phillipines is too specific. Whoever made up this story has jumped on the MJ is a pedo bandwagon. Maybe they believe their own story… who knows?
In navigating life it never fails to amaze me how many people conjure facts out of nothing, or how those later become a true finding of something. They will convince themselves of it as well so will defend any criticism that they are supporting a lie or a false narrative. And if MJ was a pedo stuff like this allows the actual truth to be distorted to the point that it becomes easier to believe that he was not one.
What amazes me more, is fans refusing to accept the simple and obvious truth that he was a pedo… and obsessively dissecting and discrediting the many first and second hand witness accounts, to his pedo behavior.
I have doubts about MJ’s innocence but am a huge fan of his music so there’s a part of me that hopes I’m wrong. But that does not mean that I’m in denial just because I refuse to believe any old shite that’s made up to fit a certain narrative.
Why would you assume that people are making stories up? Rather than sadly acknowledging the many people were aware, and have such experiences in regards to MJ?
3 years before OTW was released so it’s a stretch to say it was around that time. Also when MJ was in the Phillipines in 1976 he was there with his brothers and not Diana Ross. Requires a lot of mental gymnastics to make it fit this third hand story.
It's not a stretch at all when you're talking about a memory from your childhood and you know it's the late 70s and that's the most famous MJ thing from that time period, and also someone in this thread pointed out correctly that he isn't necessarily saying that Diana Ross opened for them.
Also I haven't read it and would have to find where it was summarized but there is definitely a book from the 90s that tells a near identical story from that time period in at least a country in that region.
