I only created this account to say this: F YOU MTV. You embarrassed a LEGEND on his BIRTHDAY. How "polite". How much viewership did MJ give your stupid channel in the past? And you all just do this? Now you recognise the award only after his death. And in such a tiny way. OH LIKE IT HELPS RIGHT. Use your BRAINS. God gave it you all for a reason. Seriously, hire a better prankster who actually makes up proper pranks which are FUNNY and not INSULTING. This was not even 0.001% hilarious. To the person or people who created this prank - Good luck to you and your life. I hope karma treats you terrible. How mean can you get? R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Was it so hard for you to understand? F off, MTV. Pathetic piece of ****.
Thank you for such a true statement. I will never forgive them either; I just hope Michael didn't take it to heart, after all he would know that MTV is a bunch of disrespectful idiots. And Jack Black - failed comedian, lol good one. Shamone Michael!! I miss you & love you with all my heart!!
You must be gettin' lots of bad comments about this, MTV, 'cause you aint posting the one I made an hour ago, lol. Can't take the heat huh? It was funny then, huh, picking on Mike, but now I hope more people see just how you are. Dirty low down losers!!
MTV is a bunch of cruel A**holes and these other posters here are right on. MJ didn't need that stupid award, he was nice enough to show up and boost your ratings, not to mention he MADE MTV. For the rest of my sentiments, please read zazweiner's post below because they said it all. And oh yeah, and JACK BLACK, you were not funny in that sketch and I will never see you in the same light after that. Oh yeah, and every day you look more like Rosie O'Donnell. Sorry Rosie. MTV sucks- I hope they feel like crap for what they did. Everyone can see they are trying to back track, but it's way too late for that.
At any rate, MJ didn't need you to give him that award. You owe him more than he did you.
Living outside the US, I wasn't aware of this controversy back in 2002. Have just encountered some blog entries about it including links and screenshots of webpages posted back then. So which one is it, MTV, are you now admitting that you had told MJ he'd be getting a special award?
Yeah, it was MTV and the other media azzholes who made Mike's life a living hell. Now here they are trying to re-write history. Now's the time for Mike's admirers to fight back. We call for complete vindication of Michael Jackson by mainstream media. Michael Jackson was exonerated by a jury of his peers in 2005. Not good enough for his fans. For his children’s sake, mainstream media must become more responsible. We discuss how truth can compel mainstream media to publicly admit it wrongly accused Michael Jackson of despicable crimes. Many people still believe Michael Jackson was guilty of these crimes. People were influenced to believe the allegations by a biased mainstream media. Please join us. No links allowed here so search Yahoo Groups for "vindication better than tributes." MTV, go eat crap.
WTF, you cruel a**holes. You revert back to "Artist Of The Millenium" after he passes away? Atrocious.
Hey morons at mtv, you forgot to change it in MJ's "biography" on his music video page. No. Shame.
What a bunch of hypocritical, ungrateful cunts. Who do you think you are? MJ made you but you still did not hesitate to humilate him and make a mockery of him. Now that he's dead it's an award? What are you gonna do now? Erase that Jack Black crap from the internet? Yeah, didn't think you could. You should've appreciated him when you could. Eff you, MTV. You're a ****** channel now either way. Whatever happened to showing actual music videos and not staged reality T.V.? Everyone knows that the media led Michael to self-destruction and you were a huge part of that, don't deny. Feels good to know that you indirectly killed the man that gave you your position today, doesn't it? Go to hell you backstabbing bastards. MJ deserved so, so much better. The poor guy was so misunderstood and we all know the most beautiful of us are the most misunderstood. Oh yeah, and this is coming from someone who doesn't even use vulgar language too much.
you guys are sick and extremely disrespectful. Michael Jackson is the King of Pop. how dare you mock him, when he in fact made mtv!! you guys have no shame huh. mtv needs to DIE in a FIRE. stop trying to make it seem like this didnt happen. EVERYONE CAN SEE IT ON THE INTERNET. you guys are 7 years too late. showing this AFTER he died is quite the cowardly move. you guys are ridiculous. diaf mtv, diaf.
What an Amazing human being Michael was. And YOU MTV played a BIG part of tryin 2 destroy him. WTF Was the point to make fun of something When Michael actually did it right? Why the hake would u do something like this? This whole time Y'all said he just loved awards thats why he gave a speech. Y'all are BUTT WHOLES!!! HE MADE Y'alls A$$'s...and this is how u repay him? bringing the truth out after he has passed? What a Shame! Your Bi+ch A$$'s wouldn't be here if it wasn't for MICHAEL. I hope Y'all get a brain some day cuz what u have is NOT IT! Michael, I love you from the bottom of my heart. I miss you. RIH(Rest in heaven) Hee hee, Aowww!
Oh yeah and look at that fierce GQ MOFO....I miss you so much MJ. Shamone!!!!111
This makes me as angry, and as sad, as it did when you guys first disrespected the King of Pop with this prank. And that failed comedian Jack Black can kiss MJ's butt. You guys advertised a Millennium award and then reniged on it just to use MJ for your stupid joke. I will never forgive the meanness of what you all did. Someone should apologize on the air for you you all done to him.
I agree. Michael Jackson made MTV. And in return they made a fool of him in front of millions this night. MJ really does deserve that award. Where the heck would MTV be without him anyways? In the gutter, still wanting to be startin somethin, but getting nowhere. That's where. But Michael came around and STARTED IT ALL for you guys. It's sad, that while he was alive, you repayed him in such a shameful way. Good job, I bet you feel proud.
Oh NOW it's the Millennium Award??? MTV you owe your existence to Michael Jackson. No one was checkin' for your lousy ass station before you started showing MJ videos. You should be ashamed of yourselves as a "music" network for allowing that to happen. I hope y'all don't even attempt to throw him a tribute in your funky ass VMA's either. He blessed you with his videos and appearances. He's the biggest artist who has ever graced this Earth. Y'all were lucky to even have him show up at your crummy awards.
oh, so now that the legend is DEAD, mtv finally decides to make right what they did all those years ago. i thought there was a fvcking "misunderstanding" at the time. that mike jack wasn't REALLY receiving an artist of the millennium award and that he was simply "confused." i tuned in, as did MILLIONS of others, to see mj receive his special award (as had been advertised weeks leading up to the vmas). THEN, these turncoat mofos tried to make it seem like they never intended to give him an award in the first place. and for what?? more controversy or was it because he had just pissed all over SONY??? die in a fire mtv, die in a fire
What hypocrites you are, MTV. Oh, I thought it was just supposed to be a birthday present, right MTV? That silly Jacko and his weirdness, thinking he was getting an Artist of the Millennium Award, how hilarious. But you would never do that, trick him, just so that people would have something to gossip about the next day. Right? You should be ashamed of yourselves, but obviously, YOU HAVE NO SHAME.
MJ in 2002 ran ads sying they were going to present MJ with a special award. That is the only reason I tuned it. MTV later recanted and said that they could give it out as there is no such award and pretty much embarrassed Jackson for NO REASON. MTV went back on their word in 2002 and then tried to pretend as if they didn't know why he made the speech or anything. When in reality they advertised it on television and PLANNED on giving him an award.
it wasn't actually the award for the artist of the millenum or was it? o.O
