Celebrity Sightings: Music Edition



What time is it? Nope, it's not Adventure Time. It's time for another installment of Celebrity Sightings! This week is going to be a bit different. Last time on Celebrity Sightings, we saw a couple avatars that fell under the "unconventional celebrities" list. This week, though, we will be seeing nothing but actual entertainers. Well-known entertainers, at that. And to top it off, I will be showcasing more than 3 profiles. So, let's begin!



This is it. Remember what I said last week about Mario being one of the most beloved video game characters? Well, replace "Mario" with "Michael Jackson" and "video game character" with "pop idol/musical genius," and you will almost have a decent comparison to work with. I can't even begin to describe how essential Michael Jackson was to music. He pushed boundaries, broke records and made people think twice about what it truly meant to be an artist. If one person ever defined the word "entertainer," it was him. There's no surprise, then, that his fanbase is one of the largest for any musician. Ever. As such, the love for him is constantly shown in Pico...

Hi everyone.. I have excited news to relay your way.. one on a more intimate note.. Gem Rock's love life.

One lonely morning in Pico I searched the events list and found the most interesting contest. It said "Win a date with Michael Jackson". Win a date with Michael Jackson? What type of fun would have have? Geri curl through our hair, would he treat me to a nose job? Take my to Neverneverland? I didn't know what magic we had in store.. but I knew this was my destiny.. to be asked out on a date by the King of Pop :).

There were two challenges to this contest, 1; To say something Michael might sing in one of his songs, 2; To dress like Michael Jackson. Done and done... he asked me those magical words... "A hee hee.. Gem Rock, Would u like to go on a date with me?"
"Yes Michael, Yes I will go on a date with you!", "Great girl ;) I will pick u up at 4"

The very punctual MJ picked me up at four, I told him "Take me wherever you want baby. I will warp to you anywhere"

and lastly.. that's when MJ planted a big old smackaroo on my delighted face. My first celebrity kiss! I felt like Wendy when Peter Pan taught her how to fly! How could you not fall for any man, freak or no freak, with a tongue like that?

Finally.. my sweet prince bid me farewell.

That was it for my date with the "King of Pop :)". He left me with the sweet words "I will also sing at weddings".
