Michael Jackson's bedroom scattered with drugs, post-its and dolls when he died

Wish I could get a closeup of the gold statuette on the desk in R3. A naked gold flute player with a foot long penis? Or peeing into the ground? Is there some character in mythology who plays a flute and gets little boys to follow him? (not sure what I'm trying to think of...) Pan?

What...a...DUMP!

In t hat 1st pic - is that a pacifier or 'binky'???

What a slob.

Who is the rich old white lady in R4?

Crack house vibe.

So tawdry. All that money, and this is how he lived. What a waste.

Wow. Even the very rich live like slobs.

I've unfortunately seen the living spaces of a couple of mentally ill substance abusers, and this nails the look. I assume the squalor and filth doesn't bother you when you're high all the time.

R5 The Pied Piper perhaps? The story the piper who rid the town of Hamelin, Germany of rats by luring them away with his music and then, when he was not paid for his services, lured away its children.

The fairy tale evolved from real events which are recorded as having occurred on June 26, 1284.

MJ died June 25 in the morning of Eastern Standard Time - but actual hour unknown (to the public).

... and that strange leg-length penile-looking appendage of the piper statuette is quite bizarre. Even blowing it up, it's hard to make it out as it becomes quite blurry. Nevertheless, it certainly seems quite appropriate in keeping with the MJ narrative,

Doll? Show us on another doll where MJ touched you.

He was a slob. Have you ever seen the photos from Neverland the police took? The rooms were piled with shit.

What drugs?

"Sure I take Dolls, I gotta get some sleep"

Interesting to see these bedrooms of Uber wealthy people. Funny how we’re all human and our bedrooms generally look the same—bed, desk, chair, dresser

Child porn, pills, Jesus Juice.

I imagine part of the problem was he couldn't let the cleaners in without a lot of pre-clearing up..

Here you go, R5. Even enlarged and sharpened a bit it’s hard to tell what is going on.

Whatever it is, it’s creepy.

His music triggers me. People need to stop playing it.

R5 r22 I see the statue is a satyr playing a flute. The head of the satyr is a blonde boy.

R22. I think that is the leg of the stool the flautist is sitting on, not a penis. You can see the bottom of the other leg, and it has the same shape.

Since the man is dead and can't defend himself and this "piece of news" comes ten years after the event, there is little to discuss here.

We have no idea how credible any of this is or what any of this means.

Reminds me of that "Designing Women" episode where the court is questioning the sanity of a woman and her house does indeed look weird and strange, then at the end a reasonable explanation for everything is found. Then the women begin to discuss all the odd things in their homes that would look ever weirder if someone stumbled up on them, without a proper frame of reference.

What was or was not in his home bears little reference to any crime he may or may not have committed. You can find all sorts of homes that vary widely by people who commit similar crimes.

Love the Swiffer in R2's photo! Obviously not helping much!

The only thing these pictures prove is that he was a slob.

He rented that house furnished. That statue is from the owners

Why is it all these big houses all have such weird similar looking furniture? Is there one big furniture company that caters to rich people with boring, old fashioned taste? My former boss actually lived in a big house and had similar furniture (but great art), and even though it looked awful, the furniture was really expensive. His wife actually paid a decorator to put all that ugly looking crap in their house

In Martin Bashir's "Living with Michael Jackson," MJ is filmed shopping in a store in Las Vegas (starts around the 32 minute mark). Everything is painted gold and most items seem non-functional (giant vases). At around 35:14, MJ stops to admire (in the store) a painting of the bathing of Apollo.

Yes, we don't need to see his living quarters to know he was weird and strange, and a junkie pedo.

MJ was a spendaholic with no self control. He would go into stores and spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on tacky decor items and within a week of delivery he'd send most of it back. Of course the shop owners would always gladly just send him a bill since they figured he was good for it. I think most of the time his business manager informed him he didn't have the cash on hand to pay for the crap.

R32 And that’s how he ended up broke and in debt in 2009, and why he signed up to do those comeback concerts. The rehearsals for which ended up killing him.

That’s not what killed him.

R32 I remember reading about how he took a $2 million dollar diamond watch on spec, kept it for almost a year without paying and only returned it when threatened with a lawsuit.

That bed looks very underwhelming considering his known lavish lifestyle and spending habits. It looks like the mattress (and maybe a box spring) is on the floor. My worst fear is dying alone at home with a huge mess around me. I know, I know...I shouldn't care because I'd be dead, but I don't want to be judged and labeled as a slob after death.

Those photos can’t be from ‘09 the electronic equipment in those photos look like the 90’s.

She was a mess.

Yes, r5. It looks like Pan or any generic satyr or faun.

But I don’t see a giant penis on him. That’s Priapus.

Are you high? They most certainly can be. Does electronic equipment simply vanish into thin air after a decade?

Look out the window! Every single car is from the model year 2019.

When MJ died, those pictures were all over the media. That's the room he was in when he OD'd.

pretty sure these photos were taken AFTER police had searched the premises....

"The only thing these pictures prove is that he was a slob."

It also proves he was a drug addict who played with dolls. I think by now everyone knows that Michael Jackson was a drug addicted, mentally deranged pedophile who spent money like water, but he continues to fascinate. The depths of his sickness has no end.

I read he had JonBenet's picture prominently displayed

Eh, r45, I doubt she was his type.
