The party - at the Equinox in Leicester Square - was organised by Gloria Haydock and MJ News International's dedicated team of Fan Club volunteers who worked solidly to pull off (in barely six weeks!) the most successful fan gathering ever held in the name of Michael Jackson. Michael told MJNI after the show that he "greatly enjoyed it," and he and his entourage repeated this message to many of our team members and other fans throughout the remainder of his stay in London. We are very honoured that he chose our show to make his groundbreaking speech, which we now reproduce in its entirety. (Special thanks to Matt Dodwell.) The Speech I want to thank all the great, incredible talents. [DJ plays "Speechless".] As long as you play the music, I want to dance! I want to thank this guy for a wonderful performance [referring to Ernest Valentino.] I thought Bryton McClure was amazing, too. He's a great singer as well. Anyway, I first wanted to say, I really don't like to talk that much. I really don't. I prefer performing than talking. I really want you to know what I say. The tradition of great performers: from Sammy Davis Junior, James Brown, to Jackie Wilson, to Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly. The story is usually the same though. These guys worked really hard, and they're crabbed, for the story ends the same. They are usually broken, torn and usually just sad, because the companies take advantage of them, they really do. And being the artist that I am, at Sony I've generated several billion dollars for Sony, several billon. They really thought that my mind is always on music and dancing. It usually is, but they never thought that this performer - myself - would out think them. So, we can't let them get away with what they're trying to do, because now I'm a free agent. I just owe Sony one more album. It's just a box set, really, with two new songs which I've written ages ago. Because for every album that I record, I write - literally, I'm telling you the truth - I write at least 120 songs every album I do. So I can do the box set, just giving them any two songs. So I'm leaving Sony, a free agent, owning half of Sony. I own half of Sony's Publishing. I'm leaving them, and they're very angry at me, because I just did good business, you know. So the way they get revenge is to try and destroy my album. But I've always said, you know, art - good art - never dies. Thank you. And Tommy Mottola is a devil! I'm not supposed to say what I'm going to say right now, but I have let you know this. [Points to crowd.] Please don't videotape what I am going to say, ok? Turn it off, please. Do it, do it, I don't mind! Tape it! Mariah Carey, after divorcing Tommy, came to me crying. Crying. She was crying so badly I had to hold her. She said to me, "This is an evil man, and Michael, this man follows me." He taps her phones, and he's very, very evil. She doesn't trust him. We have to continue our drive until he is terminated. We can't allow him to do this to great artists, we just can't. I just wanted to let you know, I appreciate everything you've done, you've been amazing. You're so loyal! [Scanning the audience.] Diana, everybody, Waldo, all the people here! I love you all. You've been amazing, I love you! But still, but still, I promise you, the best is yet to come!
