The internet is a hive of conspiracy theories, and conspiracy theory spoofs. Here are a selection of the most bizarre explanations for Michael Jackson’s death.
1) Michael Jackson was killed by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to distract attention from Iran
For: The King of Pop’s death was perfectly timed for the wobbling Iranian regime. Just as reports of its post-election clampdown were provoking howls of protest in the West, and pushing the previously hesitant President Obama to say was “appalled and outraged”, Jacko’s death sucked media attention from Persia to Bel Air.

Well, I’m sure you’re not the only one who thinks so.
What’s your take on the whys and hows?
Bear in mind, we’re a fairly cynical bunch here, but also very meticulous in our analysis. If you want to find a hole in your theories, we’re likely to oblige you in spades.
Some detail emerging that he wasn’t exactly up for doing these comeback gigs. Although this all clearly illuminati propaganda (or should that be proper gander?)
Given how big a star Michael Jackson was I won’t be surprised if revelations keep coming out in dribs and drabs over the coming years. Maybe even some as yet unknown conspiracy however minor.
