Difference with Gary Glitter and MJ is that GG got caught with child porn and got sent to jail for it. He was cleared of child sex-assault charges though. Apparently he's living in Cambodia. MJ was cleared of all charges.
As for MJ, he _really_ needs to figure out who he is (if he doesn't know already), reinvent himself and release some great music. Maybe yes he has grown out of CHR, but the AC market could be cracked wide open and he could be successful to a much older audience. I think he needs to find some soul, but whatever happens I wish him all the success in the world.
Mark.
