Hi. I'm Nina. I am British and live in the United Kingdom, and have two sons. I was very moved by Michael Jackson after finding out about him after he died. I have decided to join MJ's Army as it is clear he is becoming a huge historical figure. I am a retired journalist and 68 years young! I am probably older than most members, but that this may throw a new slant, different perspective on things that might be interesting. I first remember Michael Jackson as a little boy singing 'ABC', 'Rockin Robin' and 'I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus' when the Jackson 5 were all the rage. Years passed - 45 years of my life - hardly noticing that he was always there. I admit I was so busy with my life that I took him for granted. I watched him performing the video 'Black Or White', saw him at the 02 Arena, looking so good, announcing his 'This Is It' concerts; and then he was gone! What a wake-up call for the world! I was stunned, gutted. Unbelievable! Even now, after 20 months I have this dark empty feeling, missing him. I shall be watching the upcoming trial closely hoping for the justice he so richly deserves. I shall have more to say under the other two headings.

Nina, so glad you found us and thanks so much for joining us! I'm sure you will be able to add a great new perspective in your comments.
Since you were a journalist, I would love for you to consider joining the 500 team, a group of us advocating on Michael's behalf. Read more under the Victories & the Fight for Justice board.
Lots of love,
Mal
