You know what I mean. Almost everything Michael Jackson does is insane. He has extensive nose surgery, lives in a ranch with zoos and playgrounds and Coca-Cola fountains, and dangles babies out of windows.
So, which current celebrity is the most likely to go Jacko when he or she grows older? Possibly not exactly in Michael Jackson way, but doing something at least equally wacky. Not mildly quirky or eccentric, full-bore Jacko.
My money’s on Macaulay Culkin. That’s why he’s been hanging out with Jacko, you know. He’s learning from the master.
I could see that but he’s not really a current celebrity.
But Haley Joel Osment? The possibilities are ENDLESS…
Or better yet, if they don’t become bulimic porn stars by the end of the month, the Olsen Twins. They’ve literally grown up on TV on incredibly mediocre shows. There’s got to be twice as much freakshow in their little adolescent minds…
You’ve got a point there. Hmm.
Horrible thought: Macaulay Culkin comeback? Is it even possible?
Ricky Schroeder did okay after The Champ and Silver Spoons.
Whoops, I mean Rick. Rick Schroeder.
doesnt Jacko have like 3 kids ? One of them will already be traumatized from being hung out the window , god only knows what they could do with all that money and pent up rebellion.

Anyway, he’s already acted out, sort of: dyeing his hair Cobain-red and marrying at 17. I dunno if he’s still hanging out with Jacko, but he’s godfather to the oldest kid. :eek:
Such as?
Based on what I’ve heard and read about Haley, I don’t see him tripping out. The way I understand it, his parents, especially his dad, play him very carefully, with enough supervision to keep him out of trouble, but no arbitrary strictness that will make him hate them and rebel. His dad’s emphasized in interviews that he’s “allowed to be a kid” when the cameras are off.
And please bear in mind that a 24-karat halo is a very heavy thing to carry around. The tiniest transgression, like getting a speeding ticket when he becomes licensed, could be seen as a fall from grace. If the press ever jumps on him for something, that won’t necessarily mean he’s completely out of control.
I’ll give you an anecdote, though. A couple years ago, he was in Poland working on a movie called Edges of the Lord (please, please, someone get this released in America!). He and the other kids in the cast were running around the hotel where they were staying, playing Murder in the Dark and making the kind of ruckus Dopers hate from kids. So there’s your acting out!
Oh, and Zoggie, I’m not jumping your stuff either! Just wondering what your predictions are… 
Nah. I see him taking time off for school, possibly coming back as an adult actor, firing off a few top-notch roles, and then retiring, having “been there” and “done that”.
Christine Aguilera seems to be merrily on her way.
Ha! I bet Jacko leaves it all to Bubbles.
Justin Timberlake…I still believe he dances like Michael Jackson…it is scary.
Oh, hell. If Bubbles died, then he’s leaving it to the Elephant Man’s remains.
Hey, it could happen.
Wil that stop Jacko from leaving everything to Bubbles?
Let me think about who would go Jacko. Hmmmm, Jonathan Taylor Thomas wouldn’t suprise me.
I mean if Bubbles is dead, of course.
Probably because Haley Joel sees dead people? I just get the sense of him doing a Linda Blair and not being able to get any non Sixth Sense-esque roles. Though I know he has gotten others- the annoying cute little kid in “Pay it Forward,” and the annoying cute little kid in “A. I.” I just think it would be cool if he got into the occult and thought the dead people were real or something.
Any takers on the Olsen twins?
The Olsen twins have a new movie coming out (on video, I think). Man, they’re goofy looking.
