Culture: Lisa Marie Presley: Michael Jackson thought he’d end up like Elvis

  • At some point he paused, he stared at me very intensely and he stated with an almost calm certainty, ‘I am afraid that I am going to end up like him, the way he did.’
  • Lisa Marie Presley • On her MySpace blog, explaining a conversation between her and her former husband where he revealed his fear of ending up just like her famous dad. She tried to get him away from that thinking but he had accepted it as fact, something that hit her yesterday when an untimely death proved to be true. Presley went further in her post, saying that their marriage was in fact not a sham: “I do believe he loved me as much as he could love anyone and I loved him very much.” • source

Sports: Kenyon Martin isn’t accepting Mark Cuban’s cop-out apology

  • The world got to see it before the person who it was meant for got to see it. That tells you how that goes. I ain’t never known nobody apology to somebody through other people.
  • Denver Nuggets star Kenyon Martin • Who’s still just a little pissed about how Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban treated his mom, and even more pissed about the fact that Cuban posted an apology on his Web site rather than talk to him directly. Dude, but he’s an internet entrepreneur! He’s not supposed to talk to other human beings, unless he’s insulting them. • source
