Michael Jackson Has Been Living Right Underneath Our Prosthetic Noses!
Michael Jackson has been spotted around town in New York periodically in recent months, but until today, we didn't know where he was living. Turns out he'd been holed up with a private family in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, where he'd been "trying to be normal," according to FoxNews.com columnist Roger Friedman. That's less than an hour from here! Technically, that put Jackson miles and miles closer to our bustling city than he is to "normalcy." Jackson has reportedly returned to L.A., but good for him for trying to introduce his family to the quiet life in the Jersey suburbs? Good for him. For a short time, his kids could finally have a normal life, going to the movies, attending public school, making regular friends. After all, if your new little friend has millions of dollars to spend at the Short Hills mall, who cares if he has to do it wearing a mask?

Why the Fug Isn't Anybody Paying Attention to Michael Jackson?
With the Jolie-Pitts invading the city in their armored SUVs, we’re hardly surprised that other celebrity tidbits have been swept under the rug — clearly, by-the-hour updates of what Maddox is up to at the park would supersede news of what Tinsley has done with her hair, or which blast of hot air most recently burst from Trump's blowhole. But for America's First Family to eclipse even the dramatic return of deposed King of Pop Michael Jackson and his theatrically veiled kids … does that mean we're ready to forgive and forget with America's most (in)famous man-child? Or is it that no one can be bothered to care?
