JACKO FINDS ISLAM
2003-12-18
EFL & You cannot make this up!
The King of Pop is restyling himself Jacko X.
Michael Jackson last night became a member of the Nation of Islam - and sources told The Post his religious changeover comes along with a shake-up of his personal staff.
That’s how I converted from atheism to Christianity. You know, I was in the middle of firing all of my staff, and thought ‘hey, why don’t I convert’.
High-ranking members of the Nation of Islam have been working to bring Jackson into Rev. Louis Farrakhan’s flock - and Jackson’s conversion is now well-known in the NOI community.
En-shalla
Exactly why Jackson converted wasn’t clear to The Post’s sources.
This is called covering you ass, in anticipation for jail time.
But Fox News’s Web site reported yesterday that Jackson’s brother Jermaine, who converted to Islam in 1989, has been seeking to win favor with his more famous sibling, and has brought Farrakhan’s chief of staff, Leonard F. Muhammad, into Jacko’s bedroom inner circle as a "bodyguard."
Someone needs to fend off all the children, no?
That’s just one of many changes under way in Jackson’s inner circle, sources said.
Other changes that have been leaked to the press include Mr. Ali Jacko being fitted for a new wardrobe. Rumored to be included in this new wardrobe are a lot of orange jump suits.
