Derek Acorah To Contact Michael Jackson (Oh Please!) October 14, 2009
Posted by Ruth in : Music, Ruth's Ramblings , trackbackMichael Jackson looks as though he will never rest in peace now that Derek Acorah is blabbering on about how he’s planning to contact him in a live TV séance.
Personally I’ve had some rather unconvincing experiences with so-called psychics, and after hearing that Mr Acorah wants to cash in on the King Of Pop’s death has almost solidified my thoughts that most of it is a money-making scam.
I know there are people out there who believe in psychics, fortune tellers and the like, but whilst I’ve always had an open mind, this latest stunt had me slapping my hand to my mouth in disbelief.
Michael Jackson
So, just to tell you a bit about the whole thing, it’s going to be hosted by the lady who can’t seem to get enough lipgloss, June Sarpong and it will be dubbed; Michael Jackson: The Live Séance, and air on Sky One next month.
59 year-old Derek will try to make communicate with Michael to find out his views on his untimely death… so will YOU be tuning in or do you reckon it’s a load of old twaddle? Or even worse… is Jacko still alive?
Ruth. xx
unbelievable how low can one human being stoop?so shocking… they should have respect for his family and kids,shame on sky one…
If I heard correctly, the radio said this will fans’ last chance to contact jacko… erm, why?
If it is all real, then is he only going to give one afterlife interview?
This is a shambles! Derek Acorah is just making money and fame for himself off of MJ’s death. Isn’t this going to hurt his famliy even more than they are already hurting? Personally, i love MJ and miss him but this is just wrong. How often did MJ do live tv when he was alive? Yet, no he is dead they are trying to get in touch with his spirit live! Whatever happened to Rest In Peace? MJ might have been a mega superstar but he was as human as any of us and so are his parents, siblings and children. Let MJ Rest In Peace and let his family grieve without the media making things harder than they already are! RIP MJ <3
why cant you all just leave him alone,no wonder why this poor man cant rest. i am telling everyone just leave him alone if michael himself wants to contact someone,from the after life he will. I LOVE YOU MICHAEL R.I.P king OF POP
hez resting in peace..this damn world cnt hurt him anymore…let them babble!
Well, to be fair, I think less well-known Mediums have claimed that they have been in contact with him.
I’ve seen Derek Acorah live, and he wasn’t in the slightest bit convincing… a 2 year old could make the same stuff up.
Derek Acorah has proven himself to be a scammer, and he’s just trying to do this for the publicity
Shame on you, Acorah
That’s just funny to read let alone, hahaa, i love Michael, ive bin a fan all my life, broke my heart when he died, & im a fan of Derek but to have Derek try to contact him, its making me laugh lol, i must watch it. Its very disrespectful though, seems no one can leave Michael alone in peace even in death.
X RIP LEGEND X
How do you know MJ wants to rest in Peace…?
He might be trying to contact his parents.
through derek?
doubt it
fs, this guy had kids
leave it alone
Ian Halperin , author of Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson is also supposed to be on the show and just to give a glimpse of who this jack*** is here is a personal opinion posted on Amazon about the author:
High on sensationalism, low on facts, July 18, 2009
By “Ron” (Chicago, IL)
Having followed Ian’s other explosive celebrity scoops and books over the past several years I sort of knew what to expect with this one. Ian is the one who exclusively revealed on his blog that Angelina Jolie has sex daily with men, women, dogs, plants, and suggestively even her own children. He claims that Brad Pitt impregnated a mysterious Sudanese model who then traveled to Cannes this year to confront him, but then never said another word about it. He claimed multiple times that David Carradine was murdered, when in fact the forensic experts confirmed that Carradine died of accidental erotic asphyxiation. One of his biggest things is to “out” celebrities and in his mind most all of Hollywood is gay. Unfortunately, none of Ian’s exclusives have ever been substantiated by any factual evidence, and most read more like fabricated tales than concrete accounts.
Late last year Ian first alleged (as he does in his book) that Michael Jackson was suffering from a potpourri of deadly diseases including but not limited to Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency, chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, severe emphysema, 95% blind in his left eye, near mute, lung and liver diseases and in dire need of a transplant, serious back and leg pain, virtually bedridden and unable to get out, amongst other outlandish illnesses which seemed to grow each week. After these claims were roundly denied by Michael Jackson, Ian aggressively promised to bring out medical records and evidence to support these claims, he never did so but instead challenged Michael to take a medical exam to prove he didn’t have such illnesses. In fact, a mandatory five hour medical exam was conducted several months ago as required by the insurance carriers of the concert series in London (which Ian never mentioned until the day Michael made the announcement himself). The certified doctors responsible for this 50-point exam, including one from New York, confirmed that other than a slight hay fever (cold) he was in great health and the only other illnesses he had was his well known skin condition Vitiligo and Lupus. After Michael Jackson passed away, forensic experts and those conducting the autopsy again made note that he did NOT die due to natural causes or lingering illnesses and that we’d have to wait for a toxicology report. It is suspected that a single anesthetic was administered by an inexperienced doctor which led to his shocking death, not all of the reasons Ian has proclaimed.
This book makes heavy, heavy use of anonymous sources Ian describes as “close friends” of Michael Jackson. Ian also has a reputation of using names of sources that simply do not exist or have no legitimate association with the celebrity he is describing–such as calling “Dean Smith” a close friend of Michael Jackson despite no such person ever existing in his life; not once did any media outlet mention such a name in connection to Michael Jackson over the course of forty years. To substantiate some of Ian’s health claims in the past, he cited an old and obsolete gossip column from Fox News while portraying it as a brand new quote for his own story. He also uses other gossipers like Perez Hilton to confirm his stories, most such claims we’ve long heard in tabloids for years and years.
Ian regurgitates the widespread rumors of Michael’s children, plastic surgery, and sexuality. He claims that Michael Jackson is gay (despite much evidence indicating otherwise including all the heterosexual material found at Neverland in 2003). Ian insists that he has seen photographs of Michael dressed all up in drag with gay men at nightclubs but then says that Michael wasn’t even recognizable at all… He also does not show any such pictures to us, or to the media. Ian allegedly went undercover as a gay hairdresser to meet Michael Jackson, but does not give a timeline or exact location; for the record Karen Faye had long been Michael Jackson’s sole makeup artist and stylist even after he passed away.
Ian claims that Michael Jackson wanted to die and that he couldn’t hardly walk let alone dance or sing (on Ian’s site he claimed Michael couldn’t even wipe his own butt). Pictures and videos of Michael Jackson’s final rehearsals at the Staples Center in Los Angeles were released by AEG officials. They recorded more than 100 hours of HD video of Michael singing and dancing night after night, including just hours before he passed away. It is expected that they will be releasing this material on DVD, in theaters, or as a Pay-Per-View event in the future. I want everyone to take a look at those pictures, and at the video of Michael dancing and singing, and then remember that Ian proclaimed he was bedridden and “could no longer sing, for a start. On some days he could barely talk. He could no longer dance.” According to concert promoters, Michael sang live much of the time during rehearsals and sounded better than ever even though he was told to preserve his voice for the real concerts, this too will come out when more video gets released.
The bottom line is that none of the salacious speculations in Ian’s book, especially about Michael’s alleged illnesses or sexuality, are backed up by factual evidence or supporting documents. Ian claims to have seen Michael’s medical records, but fails to show them to us and his claims contradict that of forensic experts and doctors. He claims to have seen confidential documents, pictures, and spoken to unknown or anonymous close friends but again none of this can be substantiated. Ultimately we get yet another unauthorized book containing nothing but speculation at a point when Michael Jackson himself can’t even defend against such accusations.
For those who believe that Ian set out to create an unbiased book about him, you need to review his blog and the things he previously wrote about Michael until the time that he passed away. Just weeks beforehand he claimed that his book will “shock you as to how sick a human being can actually be. How screwed up, how ****ed up, a man–if you call Michael Jackson a man–can be.” He referred to Michael Jackson as “Wacko Jacko” and wrote even more grotesque things on his blog about him. The original title of his book was in fact “Peter Pan or Pervert” and had a much more pessimistic description put out by the original publishers. Would not recommend this, nor would I recommend any subsequent unauthorized products coming out on the heels of Michael’s death.
I hope he is alive and hideing out somewhere ,so he can enjoy the rest of his life,’I love him sooooooooo much.
he deserves some peace now. he suffered enough from the media.
wouldnt it be funny if he were still alive some where and exsposed all these so called physcics by comeing back for real, as these people like Derek are supposed to be saucerers and magicians which god dosnt take too kindly too thats all i have to say as i respect what others beleive but my beleif is god . xxx and michael i love you more
Derek bounces back! After he was shown to be a fake on Most Haunted he needed something that would restore his reputation? This should do it! NOT! Was a sick, exploitative plan.
Derek Acorah has no right to attempt to contact Michael Jackson’s spirit. Especially since he’s doing it only for entertainment purposes. It is way too soon. A seance can’t be attempted for six months and one day at a minimum after a person is deceased. We spiritualists will block this man’s attempts. He will not be able to get hold of Michael Jackson’s spirit. We are asking that all spiritualists, wiccans, druids and others all make the effort to stop Derek Acorah from breaching protocol about seances.
was für ein schwachsinn…
wenn es gehen würde..hätte ich gern ein gespräch mit michael…
ich teile seine liebe zur natur zu den tieren und menschen die genauso denken…ich war erschüttert als die nachricht kam das er gestorben ist…
ich werde ihn in ehren halten und meine eigenen zwiegespräche halten…
ich mag menschen nicht die andere in den dreck ziehen…
der kerl soll ihn in ruhe lassen…
rest in peace aus germany michael
auch an deine familie
Unfortunately Derek Acorah gives geniune psychics a bad name. It was very distressing and painful to watch knowing that he had no contact with Michael whatsoever!
I think that he should just leave the poor guy alone let him rest in peace for once. He has had enough with the media and that kid who lied about Michael touching him just let him rest for once.
