I always welcome new book that are written about my beloved Michael Jackson and read each one thoroughly but there are many problems with this and the main issue is the author herself; many contradictions and falsehoods which with a quick research can be debunked.
However, the main purpose of this review is not to discuss her history--although it is hard to ignore that important element but I suggest you check here for more information regarding that--I'm going to keep my review based solely on the book.
As an avid book reader ever since the day I learned how to read, I always made it a habit to dig deeper behind the meaning and read between the lines. I read Shana's book with an open mind and most certainly rigorously; I wanted to know what she had to tell and what is behind her obvious bitterness--from her own words and she did reveal herself.
The book starts with Ms. Mangatal going to her first Michael Jackson solo concert--the Bad Tour in 1988 (The first concert she attended was the Jacksons’ Triumph tour in 1981). Right from the Prologue you'd notice the first (and most certainly not last) unreasonable claim, quotation from the book: "He then launched into a beautiful rendition of his hit song “Human Nature.” “See that girl—she knows I’m watching. She likes the way I stare.” As his smooth voice effortlessly glided over the lyrics, he pointed right to me. I squealed so loud, he started smiling. I had been screaming the whole time, so there was no doubt he had noticed me before then. He kept glancing at me for the remainder of the concert and I was sure we had made a love connection." 20,000 screaming fans and yet Ms. Mangatal want to convince the rational reader that she managed to grasp his attention and establish "a love connection" this easily?
However, I tried to look past this shallow attempt that most certainly would appeal to fan-girls. The real story begins when she moved to Los Angeles and sat out to make it in Hollywood as a singer (she had no luck) or as an actress (she only landed small roles here and there) so to survive in California she had to look for a job, as she claimed, she first worked as a tour guide and then she landed a better job as receptionist for Gallin Morey Associates--in which she stayed for around 7 years. Some of Gallin Morey clients included Renee Zellwegger, Paul Walker, Mariah Carey, Milli Vanilli, Dolly Parton, Whoopie Goldberg, Martin Lawrence, Korn, Mariah Carey, Nicole Kidman, Paul Walker, and, unsurprisingly, Michael Jackson.
我總是歡迎寫關於我心愛的邁克爾 · 傑克遜,仔細閱讀每一本新書,但有很多問題這和主要的問題是作者自己;許多矛盾和以快速的研究可以揭穿的謊言。然而,這次審查的主要目的不在於討論她的歷史 — — 雖然很難忽略該重要的元素,但我建議你請按一下此處瞭解更多資料,— — 我要保持我完全基於這本書的審查。作為狂熱的閱讀器,自從我學會了如何讀那天,我總是讓它背後意義深挖,在字裡行間的習慣。我讀了夏娜的本書以開放的心態和最當然嚴格;我想知道她要說什麼,什麼是背後她帶有明顯的苦味 — — 從她自己的話說,她也透露自己。這本書開始與女士 Mangatal 去她第一次的邁克爾 · 傑克遜獨奏音樂會 — — 1988 年的真棒巡演 (她參加的第一場音樂會是傑克遜的勝利之旅在 1981 年)。從序幕就你會注意到的第一個 (也最肯定不是最後一個) 的不合理索賠,報價從書:"他然後射入美麗移交的他的流行歌曲"人性"。"看到那個女孩 — — 她知道我在看。她喜歡我注視的目光。他平穩的聲音毫不費力地滑行在歌詞,他指出我的權。他開始笑我這麼大聲尖叫。我有尖叫著整個的時間,因此,毫無疑問,他已經注意到我在那之前。他瞟著我餘下的音樂會,我確信我們有了愛的連接。20,000 尖叫的歌迷和尚未女士 Mangatal 想要說服理性的讀者,她設法抓住他的注意力和建立"愛連接"這容易嗎?However, I tried to look past this shallow attempt that most certainly would appeal to fan-girls.
