The Two Coreys in ‘Canadian Keith Richards and the Whitest Michael Jackson’
June 25, 2008 by Jennifer Leftwich
My husband and I spent the weekend watching the A&E show ‘The Two Coreys’ this weekend. I spent Monday chatting around the water cooler with co-workers about this horrible, horrible train wreck of a show. There is nothing much better than watching others’ misery. The harrowing, nail-biting scene was a showdown at a deli between the two to clear the air. They both started talking about being molested! Really? Why you mad at your friend, Haim? He’s got nothing to do with it. Feldman copped to being molested as a child also. My first thought, IT WAS MICHAEL! Feldman imitated the MJ in the most bizarre way for years. It was uncomfortable to see him with a fake Jerri Curl, fedora, white socks, black shoes, and a single glove. White people ain’t supposed to do that. I would say Feldman was doing black-face but that wouldn’t be quite accurate either. Michael Jackson was doing white face. Anyway, I digress.
Corey Feldman gave a GQ interview in which he said an assistant molested him. An ass-istant. Oh, that’s in poor taste. Here’s a bit of the interview.
You were friends, famously, with Michael Jackson. Are you worried that people will assume he did this to you?
People can say whatever they want, but it wasn’t Michael. He and I have our own issues, but that wasnít one of them. The bottom line is, I know who it was. I didn’t know how to cut him off. Not only did I continue being friends with the guy, but he was working for me.

So, do we believe him? I still say it was Michael. BTW, I called Haim the “Canadian Keith Richards” because Feldman did in the interview. See for yourself. Haim is not coooool enough to be Keith Richards. Hmmm, Keith Richards lite would be Canadian Keith Richards, huh?

It’s a disgrace that people like you still get the chance to write these stupid articles about the man who has created nothing but probably the greatest revolution in the history of ShowBiz! MJ was cleared of all the accusations and dont you dare to write against him again! This website is on my ‘dont visit’ list now!
that’s your choice. we don’t like people who abuse children here (or condone it). It absolutely amazes me that people still support Michael Jackson. If you actually believe our legal system is functional, you have problems. Saying Michael Jackson hasn’t abused children is like saying O.J. was innocent or Marv Albert is a normal guy. It’s all about the haves and the have-nots. If you have enough cash and a decent legal team, you can be found innocent of anything. Or in Marv Albert’s case, you just get a suspended sentence, but it’s the same thing..
Another thing to add, if he was innocent of all his crimes, why did he pay over $25 million dollars to the boy from the 1993 case? Give me a break.
And we’ll dare to write about anything we want. Freedom of speech is a wonderful thing. You’re entitled to your odd opinion and we’re entitled to ours
Because Michael Jackson revolutionized pop music as we know it, does not declare him innocent of his charges. It clearly states he was “not guilty”. Big difference for those who pay attention to the court system.
Now my two cents on Michael Jackson’s career. Thriller is probably the best album I’ll ever own. Michael Jackson’s talent are one of a kind, and there will never be an entertainer quite like him. I mean the guy used to make people faint when he performed.
@ Romeo, you will see our opinions vary from the rest of the public’s, because we say what we want and are not forced by higher ups to hush on sensitive topics. If you’d like to see writers who say what they’re told, your in the wrong gaming site.
you’re right about his music Juan. I can’t take that away from the guy. People need to understand there’s a difference between the performer and the man in real life.
Man in the Mirror… Love that song
I cant understand why people just flat out refuse to even give the possability of innocence to Michael Jackson but are so stuck on condemning the guy. OK. For those who do actually know, in the 1993 child molestation scandal, the “victims” father was caught ON TAPE saying how he was going to “get him for all he’s got”, and also ‘After this he’ll never sell another record again’theres more than that but really says it all. With that obvious plan to extort Michael Jackson I’ll offer another reason why the charges were totally bogus. THE “VICTIM” SAID IT DIDNT HAPPEN! He said it to the police! It wasnt until only one night spent with his father that he conviently changed his mind….crazy how that works. And honestly, if my child were molested I wouldnt just want money I’d want the person who hurt my child in such an everlasting manner to rot in jail for as long as possible…
But dont take my word for it. If people want to believe the worst in someone they will.And I know just as much as anyone… But dont pretend like you know everything when in fact only those involved, MJ & the child, REALLY knows what went down.
You are right Jennifer; your statement, “ass-istant” is in extreme poor taste!
This insinuates that you either do not believe them/him or that you think it is some kind of joke.
Regardless of who did this to them, be it Michael Jackson, (who, by the way, I do believe is guilty of being a preditor and child molester), or any other person, it is a disgusting and disgraceful crime and should never be taken lightly nor made fun of.
It is humiliating and extremely damaging to the victim and I speak from experience. You never recover from it and always want to blame yourself because you were 14 or 15 or what ever, and you think that YOU should have known better and made it stop. The hard part is realizing that although you were old enough to know it was wrong, you still had no real control over the situation because a child molester ALWAYS manipulates the situation and they are good at it because this is like a job to these people and they feel they must do it to perfection. This may not be true in any other part of their lives but it is very true in the perverted part of them.
How dare you make this seem like it should be a non-issue because of who YOU THINK may have done it.
You disgust me!!!!
I followed the whole MJ Trial and it was pretty obvious that he didnt molest those kids, the families were a bunch of nut cases, the mother of the boy said that he was holding them captive (even though they were spotted everywhere in shops, hairdressers spending money etc) and said that Mike was gonna whisk them all away in a hot air balloon. There was just no evidence against him. Witnesses fell apart on the stand because their storys were so bogus. I’m not much of a fan of him and was expecting to be guilty because of what I read in the past but after actually listening to what really went on it convinced me not to beleive everything that it said and written about people. Sure there is free speech but do the world a favour and do a little research before you condone someone.
Making jokes about child molestation is not funny. Michael Jackson went to court and was found not guilty. The family was found guilty of perjuy and fraud. You are so pathetic, cracking jokes about this. “I still say it’s michael.” You are full of it.
I liked the article, and almost feel sorry for the defenders who’ve replied, but then came back to my senses.
lol @somewhat. well it is what it is.
OMG!!! im sick of people saying that Michael Jackson abuses children! its pathetic. Just because he is ACCUSED of doing this crime, it DOES NOT mean that he did it! THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE-NONE,NONE,NONE AGAINST HIM so why do people still believe it!! you shouldnt always believe what the newspapers say and plus, THE KID SAID HE DIDNT DO IT BUT THEN GOT FORCED BY HIS FATHER TO SAY THAT MICHAEL DID BECAUSE HIS FATHER WAS JEALOUS THAT MICHAEL SPENT MORE TIME WITH THE KID THAN HE DID AND THAT THE KID LOOKED UP TO MICHAEL AS A FATHER. THE KIDS DAD JUST WANTED MONEY!
Oh and KEZINS it was $22 million that Michael paid not $25. the reason why he paid them the money was because he was so sick of the bad press that he was getting. he just wanted it to be over so that he could get on with his life. besides, HE WANTED TO FIGHT BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WAS INNOCENT, IT WAS HIS MANAGERS THAT PERSWADED HIM TO PAY BECAUSE THEY SAID THAT IT WILL BE OVER. HE TOOK HIS MANAGERS ADVICE
sorry but it just frustrates me that people say that he is a pervert when they dont know what happened and that there was no evidence! plus once someone accuses a star of something like this, no matter how much evidence there is o prove his or her innocence, there will still be people who think that they did it. their reputation will be ruined just because of someone accusing them of doing this. theres loads of times when young girls accuse men of raping them, but then its proven that they didnt and that the girl did it for money or spite or whatever reason-its the same thing!
what more does Michael need to do or prove for his innocence?
give me a break.. no one settles for that much money unless they are guilty. Did you ever watch the Martin Bashir interview? I actually feel bad for MJ in some ways. He needs medical treatment.
I really don’t think there’s anything he can do to prove his innocence because he’s not innocent.
ZOMG !!! Michael is a Saint ! How dare you ???!!!1!!? He’s so innosaint, you mosters !!!1!! He don’t thing that with babies yu liers !!1!!!1!!
How sad and pathetic, but at the same impressive that he still fosters such a fanatic fan base…
We need to have the understanding that It is hard to prove innocence. Put yourself in a place where you are framed and there is no way on earth that you can prove your innocence. Does that mean you are guilty? I don’t think so. However, if people have an issue with michael jackson and they have preconcieved ideas, of course this would be the the excuse to unleash their hate by making the criticism look like it is done out of concern for children. However, As God says Judge not and you will not be Judged. Fear God and prey that if michael jackson molestes any kid make sure to ask God for justice in your prayers. In the meanwhile, pray as well that if jackson is innocent , ask God to bless him and restore him.
I think Michael jackson is a person who loves children not by his own influence but because of the love God puts in him. I believe when you love children to that level it becomes nearly impossible to harm them or hurt them. I don’t think no body on earth loves children like michael jackson. This guy visits them in hospitals and charity centers. There is no way someone who lectures at university on how children are deprieved of genuine love and the solution for the cure is loving them with out putting pressure on them to accomplish a lot at such a young age. You can read michaels’ oxford university speech and listen heal the world music specially at the biggining of that song on his Dangersous album. He also founded heal the world foundation, and heal the kids foundation. He contributed over 300 million to charity. He dedicated songs to families and children around the world on almost most of his albums. To name such would be “man in the mirror, gone too soon, heal the world, Earth song, little suzie, cry, whatever happens”. Psychologist, doctors and therapists all say michael jackson does not fit child molesters profile. After the verdict of the 2005 trial, the jury said we see no reason to think this man might be responsible of commiting such a crime. However, before the trial most of them admitted that they thought he was guilty. They also mentioned how the boy (the accuser)changed his mind many times and was not consistant, and his mother showing rude behavior to gain the trust of the jury. Most importantly, the molestation supposed to take place after he admitted it is ok to sleep with children. This whole drama was followed by an investigation launched by a famous reporter (Aphrodite Jones), and who is also famous in writing books about crime. After her investigation of a video tape showing the police interviewing the boy. She observed that the police was encouraging the boy to come up with stories, because the boy does not tell the story with out thinking hard. How about the 1993 case where the phone conversation in which the father of the accuser is threatening michael to co operate or he will go to the media. This all to me is a scam. Michael is an easy target period.
@DB I mean if anyone ever watched the Martin Bashir interview with MJ, it’s apparent he wasn’t framed. There isn’t some grand scheme to take Michael Jackson down. I like to give people the benefit of the doubt myself.. at least once. But when it’s a pattern of events that continually repeats itself, there’s just no benefit of the doubt left.
He may not be guilty of all charges… that’s obvious, but crimes have more than likely taken place. I think the guy needs help that he’ll never get.
Will,
You need to educate yourself beyond what the mass media has fed you.
Read Aphrodite Jones’ book “Michael Jackson Conspiracy”. I would gladly send you my copy if I knew you would actually read it with an open mind. You simply can’t argue with the court transcripts that are presented and I bet even you would be interest in seeing the rest of the Bashir stuff … the stuff that never was aired. What you claim convicts actually exonerates, but of course there isn’t any money to be made by the mainstream media in presenting the reality of the entire situation.
You’re convinced of crimes based on absolutely no evidence whatsoever, whereas a jury quickly threw out 14 trumped up charges because they indeed realized that no evidence means no guilt and no conviction.
You’re right that crimes have taken place. It’s plain as day that attempted extortion was one of them but the DA wasn’t interested in justice.
[...] know I made some people mad about talking about Michael Jackson in my last post. Anybody who watched the Martin Bashir special in which he proclaimed, “There is nothing more [...]
To will Snizek;
what i was saying about the martin bashir documentary was that the time michael was filmed saying, “it is ok to sleep with children” is before the molestation suppose to take place. How can someone one say “it is ok to sleep with children it is a pure thing”, and goes right after that commits a molestation after he brought the world’s attention on him? Martin Bashir did not present the complete interview. he only presented it to show only the clips that might be misunderstood by the audience that michael is weared, because negative news sells a lot. As to the conspiracy, it is very important to notice what Michael jacskson’s lawyer said honestly; Michael’s lawyer said, “the FBI never involved in civil cases, but only on federal cases, and this is the first time. There have been so many FBI agents assigned in michael’s case than in any other serial killer cases in american history”. In addition, you have to know that michael jackson dedicated his history album entirely condemning the government, the insurance company, the kkk, the finincially motivated religious leaders and the media. Therefore, these groups have every reason to conspire against him, at least few of them. Inaddition, michael jackson had a song on history album titled D.S, and it is dedicated to Tom Sneddon saying Tom sneddon is a cold man; it also says Tom conspires with kkk and FBI. Tom sneddon the prosecuter attorney has been constantly following michael jackson for about ten years; in the investigation of the 2005 trial, most credible lawyers confirmed that there are steps that are to be followed, yet they were not followed in michael jackson’s case. Furthermore, in any other case, before the case goes to court, the alligations must be investigated and determined if they were believable. However, in michael jackson’s case, a lot of credible lawyers say, the case should not have gone to trial, but it did because apparently Tom sneddon had a vendetta against michael. Before the trial in 2005, Tom sneddon was seen talking to one of the jurors in secret; which is suspicious when asking the question why. Song music record also wanted michael jackson to sell his cataloge of beatles which worth about over a billion dollars in todays value. That also raises questions why sony is the one that introduce the arviso family to michael knowing that they are extortionists, so that they can force micael to sell his cataloge if he is falsely accused and spend his money on his defence lawyers. Inaddition, michael also called sony manager Tommy motola the devil. With all this possible, and specially very obvious attempt made by Tom Sneddon, and michael’s compassionate charactor, i say michael is framed definitely.
