I just got through watching "Michael Jackson: Searching for Neverland" It showed the final months of his life. I didn't realize he was so broke the last few years of his life. One of his guards said that Michael Jackson was essentially homeless. He rented homes and never stayed in one location long.

At one point in the film, Michael was shopping at the Schwarz toy store and ran up s $39k bill. His card would not go through.. His security also had not been paid in five months.. They must have felt awful while he was out spending money and they did without. I just can't imagine someone of his status wouldn't be able to pay the people who helped them. I don't believe it was to dodge them, I honestly think he wanted to. At one point he gave them a check for half of what he owed them.

He had a lot of problems at the end of his life. After watching this, I don't see how he even functioned after having to worry about everything... It gave me a better understanding of how difficult his life was.... Having to worry about every step you take or every word that comes out of your mouth.

It was very touching. It came out in June of 2017 on Lifetime.... I had not heard of it until today..

The worries of this world are no longer his to bare. I find peace in that for some reason..

I've been watching a documentary about John Belushi... It's very interesting. The doctor interviewed pretty much gave a gloomy picture of Addiction - that you're always going to relapse... He'd do well at times, but according to his wife at the time, something would trigger him and he would start using again. It's an interesting story but very depressing.

I was just watching an interview with Joan Collins..... She made $1650 a week on some of her projects in the 50's. She also appeared in Star Trek, Batman, some horror films and Cleopatra. She was replaced with Elizabeth Taylor though, because the production company was losing money and wanted to go with more of a sure thing...

Her daughter Katy, was in a coma for seven weeks after a bad accident. It was right before she played on Dynasty...

I just got through watching "Lucy and Desi" It was a documentary about the couple and the media empire they started together. I had no idea how dignity they really were in Hollywood. If course, I've heard of "The Lucy Ball Show" but I just always thought of it as just an old show from the 50's.... and never gave it much thought.

I also didn't realize that Lucy and Desi were divoy after being married 20 years and had their own studio.... Where several shows were filmed.. Their daughter said they were married to their second spouses longer than they were married to each other. They had two children, who gave interviews.

They played tapes that Lucy had recorded a journal of sorts on.... I thought that was pretty neat.

Lucille Ball was born in 1911 and died in 1989. Desi was born in 1917 and died in 1986.

What a story!
