It's NOT Jacko - it's Jackson!


"

"I'm not a Jacko I'm Jackson"

"Yeah Wacko Jacko - where did that come from? Some english tabloid. I have a heart and I have feelings. I feel that when you so that to me. It's not nice. Don't do it. I'm not a wacko." (Michael Jackson - Interview with Barbara Walters)

--- Although Michael said it very clear that he doesn't like the name (Wacko) Jacko many people (even fans) call him that way! We have to stop it!!! It's disrespectful beyond belief calling this great humanitarian that way who was twice nominated for Nobel Peace Prize and donated hundred Millions of $ to charities!

I was reading through some of the messages you all left and it really makes me think about how casual people are with names that were explicitly asked to be left alone. It is so strange how a nickname can just stick and ruin someone's reputation even when they literally begged people on national television to stop saying it because it hurt their feelings.

Exactly. Its so rude to keep using a name he specifically said hurt his feelings. He was a human being after all.

YES. Thank you for this. He gave so much to the world and deserves basic respect. Stop calling him that stupid name.
