Essay 4671


A candy-coated MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• Michael Jackson is back in an exclusive interview for the upcoming issue of Ebony. When Johnny Depp played Willy Wonka in the recent Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie, he denied patterning the character after Jacko. Can’t imagine why anyone would have thought that.

• One of the Indonesian servants testified in the case involving a millionaire couple charged with slavery (see Essay 4643). The woman claims she was forced to eat her own vomit, scalded with hot water, poked with a knife and more. Defense attorneys argue the servants practiced witchcraft and may have participated in some form of Indonesian self-mutilation ritual. Can’t wait to hear the expert testimony on that.
