The Guenntertainment Report
MICHAEL JACKSON WAS ACTUALLY PRETTY HEALTHY WHEN HE DIED:
Friday October 2nd, 2009
Forget all the tabloid reports over the last few years about how MICHAEL JACKSON was sickly, and even on the BRINK OF DEATH.
The Associated Press got its hands on Michael's autopsy report, and it turns out that Michael was relatively healthy and hearty . . . you know, minus the drug addiction.
Yes, Michael had puncture marks covering his arms, and scars on his face and neck that were probably from plastic surgery. He also had TATTOOED EYEBROWS AND LIPS.
But for a 50-year-old man, Michael was in good shape. He was 5-foot-9, 136 pounds, and his heart, kidneys and other organs were in good shape. He did have some damage to his lungs . . . and a bit of arthritis . . . but nothing life-threatening.
His death was solely caused by drugs . . . most notably the anesthetic propofol, which was given to him by DR. CONRAD MURRAY hours before his death.
An expert who examined the report said, "His overall health was fine. The results are within normal limits."
This report is NOT good news for Dr. Murray. If he ends up charged with manslaughter, it seriously hurts his chances of claiming that pre-existing medical conditions contributed to Michael's death.
(I'm not saying I don't believe the autopsy report. But it's still hard to get over the fact that last January, the "National Enquirer" said Michael was so seriously ill he only had six months to live . . . and then, six months later, he was dead.)
One last note on Michael: Online ticket seller Fandango.com says that advance ticket sales for Michael's "This Is It!" movie are now outselling advance tickets for the "Twilight" sequel, "New Moon".
"This Is It!" opens on October 28th. "New Moon" hits theaters November 20th.
