You'd think he'd have better luck finding 72 virgins if he became catholic instead. He wants virgin boys, right?

I came in here to say something tasteless, but it would look like something out of Emily Post compared to this.

Thank you. I'm glad I exceeded your expectations.

Man, Muslims just can't catch a break.

I wonder if he's going to make the Hajj.

Can't wear a mask then, Jacko...
If this helps him, then good for him.

So now he'll offer young boys Muhammad juice?

 
BatardAmericain 2008-11-21 06:36:11 AM  
Can you imagine him serving as a muezzin?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH..WOOO!ACKBAR. . ..JAM ON!

Great! seriously, because if he continues to live in the Middle East, he will be subject to their laws and not ours. Go ahead Michael - just TRY to fark another kid.

BigMax 2008-11-21 07:18:23 AM  
Great headline! Laughed, cried, better than cats.

And, while I admittedly have not studied Muslim heaven too much, I understand that, uh, access to young boys goes along with the 72 virgin thing.

In related news, Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey supporting actor George Carlin died last summer.

Islam is like every religion, they will break the rules for the rich and powerful. Michael is still huge in the ME. Touching boys there isn't as bad (in that respect they are like the heirchy of the catholic church).

Ha, I could go for that. But only old school Michael, no new school Michael allowed.

I thought he converted to the "Nation of Islam" (it's like the Mormon church for Muslims) once before. Is he really doing this again?

 
Gilgongo! 2008-11-21 09:33:14 AM  
His entire career has bounced between "PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO ME!" and DON'T LOOK AT ME! Those poor kids of his...

This could be a good thing for Michael considering how Off The Wall he's been lately. He's facing some Bad shiat if he's convicted; I hope he's not pulling this "conversion" just to Beat It, though. HIStory will judge, I guess.

 
TypoFlyspray 2008-11-21 10:02:43 AM  
Yo, Islam, you may conider this the West's revenge for 9/11. Straighten up and fly right or Celine Dion is next.

/ Keep it up too long, and you will be able to refer to the area under Islam as the Dar al Suck.

Since he was a Jehovah's Witness, will he be knocking on people's doors while wearing a dynamite vest?

The Sun's headline was way better.

 
BRENDAN-FACE 2008-11-21 11:25:12 AM  
So Prince is now a Jehovah's Witness & Michael Jackson is now a Musilm. OK, I've processed it. Let's carry-on.

 
Patzycakes 2008-11-21 11:56:28 AM  
Why can I just picture him dressing in Islamic female attire.

 
Hippycritical 2008-11-21 12:08:03 PM  
Odd that he did not convert to a Republican (new window)

 
sentient_ham_sammich 2008-11-21 12:50:25 PM  
I bet he did it to be able to wear a burka and get away with it. As much of himself as he covers already to hide his deformity, it's not much of a stretch.

Boy better fatten up before next Ramadan, or his skinny ass will waste away with the fasting from sunrise to sunset.

will he wear a burkha?

Crazy, isnt it? Rock stars, and the like, fare so much better when they actually die young.

 
Robert1966 [TotalFark] 2008-11-21 01:40:30 PM  
I'll bet it's so he can adopt some chillens in Dubai or wherever he's evading his creditors.

 
down4afall 2008-11-21 01:44:12 PM  
You know the laws on Islam, right? You can't leave "the light", that's punishable by death. Even though I'm pretty sure that the text was meant to be more figurative than anything.

Anyway, countdown until Michael Jackson gets Malcom X'd, any guesses? 3 years here.

Jacko'll wake up dead one day, surrounded by 72 fat, male farkers and he'll wish he hadn't converted.

He wants a bunch of grumpy guys in red bowties to hang out with him all the time?

Having been raised in reality I wonder why anyone would find any religion even remotely appealing.

I think he switched to Islam for the jokes.
