After the passing of Michael Jackson there has been a mixture of reactions from the Kuwaiti blogosphere.
Remembering their childhood, ReadmyBlog writes about when he first heard of MJ's death:
I woke up this morning and the blogosphere was talking about the death of Micheal Jackson. My earliest memory of MJ was seeing my cousin trying to moonwalk
TheJacob is in wonder at the reactions from people around him:
طول عمري احب الفن لكن ما اهتم حق الفنانين نفسهم،، اهتم حق انتاجهم
بس في ناس استغربت منها
الي يقول ويع
والي يقول بجهنم انشالله
والي يقول جلب ومات
والي يقول احسن
والي يقول… والي يقول
بعرف شنو سبب الكراهيه او الحقد هذا؟
غريب امر هالناس تكره الشخص بدون سبب
واذا انا فاهم الموضوع غلط او هو مسوي لكم شي علموني عشان افهم
all my life I love art , but I don't care for artist , I care for what they produce
but there are people who amaze me
some who say yuck
some hope he is in Hell
some who say some dog and died
what is with the hate ?
I don't know why some people just hate him
If I don't understand it or there is a reason please tell me

أعتذر عن عدم التفاعل مع انتخابات إيران وتداعياتها ولا مستوطنات نتنياهو ولا استجواب وزير الداخلية ولا الجنسية لأبناء اللبنانية كما يجب.. وحده مايكل جاكسون استطاع أن يحرك مياه المدونة الراكدة.. شويّة
I'm sorry for not talking about Iran election and after effects or Netanyahu settlements , or the grilling of the interior minister or the nationality for the sons of the Lebanese as it should , only that Michael Jackson was able to move the stagnant waters of the blog
sou is amazed and shocked that so many care:
Now I’m sure Michael Jackson fans might grill me, but I don’t care. Don’t tell me Michael inspired so many of the artists I listen to; had he not been around, neither would have your favorite artists.” These are my favorite artists, and not one of them sounds like Michael Jackson:
