Since the documentary Leaving Neverland aired, few in the entertainment world have come out either for or against Michael Jackson. Most have chosen to distance themselves from the iconic pop star altogether. The disturbing film featured two men accusing Michael Jackson of child sexual abuse.
While some radio stations in Ireland, Canada and New Zealand have stopped playing his music altogether. Those who knew him personally are coming to his defense. Actor/singer Evan Ross caught social media heat for posting a video of the King Of Pop.
Michael Is His Godfather
The son of legendary singer Diana Ross didn’t hesitate to stan for MJ against online trolls. Diana Ross and Michael Jackson were so close the “Upside Down” singer even made Michael Evan’s godfather. Evan defiantly responded to comments over his sharing of a vintage clip of Michael Jackson on social media.
“I Will Be Unfollowing You”
The clip in question has been seen nearly 150,000 times. It comes from Jackson’s 1988 musical film Moonwalker. The singer performs a cover of The Beatles classic “Come Together” as well as hits from his 1987 chart-topping album Bad.
For the caption Ross simply wrote, “So good. Had to post this again!! Love you!”
It didn’t take long for the comment section to produce some people who took offense.
One commenter wrote: “Posting an image of him girating is in really bad taste. I will also be unfollowing you.”
