On the fourth of Mordad, Michael Jackson hosted a generous party at his personal home, Neverland , held in honor of the 74th birthday of his father, Joe Jackson . Representatives from several media outlets were also invited, including EUR (Electronic Urban Report) . Below, you can read in full the news they published:
"We finally found the chance to see the colorful table setting MiJac ."
(August 6, 2002) This Saturday had the hottest tickets for the annual event "The Miracle of Mid-Summer Magic Johnson" in Santa Monica and another event at the large ranch Neverland by Michael Jackson outside Santa Barbara . We couldn’t go to both programs, but since we hadn’t seen Neverland yet, we decided to choose a 90-minute car ride along with journalist Angel Howansky . We’ll write a separate story about this trip for you one day, but as they say, that’s its own story. In any case, we have to defend Michael: Neverland is the end of the road. We wished we could live there! We’re getting off the main topic. The program we mentioned was held at Neverland in honor of the 74th birthday celebration of his father, Joe Jackson . These days, the whole big family really looks good, and even now you can still see excitement and energy in their movements. We asked him what the secret of this energy is. He answered: "I go to sleep at nine at night and wake up at five in the morning, and every day I walk three or four miles. That’s all." Well, with this crazy daily schedule, we can’t adapt ourselves to this tactic anytime soon. We told you that more than a thousand people were present at this event, didn’t we? We asked Joe whether he had ever had a birthday party this big. He told us: "No, not exactly this big. My birthday two years ago was held here with half this number." Among the famous guests we saw Eddie Griffin , Robert Townsend , the new player L.A. Laker , Karl Malone , MC Hammer and Jermaine Dupri and Ralph Johnson from EW&F . Yes, we also saw Jackie , Jermaine , Janet and Tito (who sang a few songs Blues ... and his voice was really very good), but Michael wasn’t there. When we asked everyone, they said he was definitely at the main house. We didn’t even see Bubbles . Good luck, dry luck!
