Why did Michael lose interest in Lisa Marie ??

( Lisa later claimed she did not know this kiss was going to happen and she was embarrassed by this ploy'

then Later told Oprah she asked WHY they had to do the kiss,-showing she knew all along...  )

Well 1st I want to preface this by saying that the marriage was NOT real. So it's important to understand that because it gives context to MJ's actions....

Introduction:

So some quick info....

Back in the early 90s, MJ was looking for a new singer for his Rec Co. MJJ Records. his friend Brett was to receive a fat commission for finding a new singer.  MJ wanted an attractive girl. Brett knew Lisa and immediately thought of her. He told MJ how beautiful she was and that she could sing. Michael requested a demo tape but when Brett asked Lmp for one, she insisted on meeting MJ. 

Meeting 1st time:

They met soon after and Lisa (according to her friends) was smitten with MJ from the start. She was married but obviously that didn't stop her... Anyway, she and MJ became friends. He told Ebony, she would even cry when the media treated him so badly. He felt a real connection to her, and they grew close. 

Brett's Incentive:

Brett meantime, was pushing hard because he was to get a sizable commission. So since it was Lisa's b day. He told MJ. who told him to get her a nice gift. Brett gave her an expensive painting and wrote MJ's name on it. Lisa loved it and insisted on calling him and thanking him in person... As their friendship continued, the press was getting more vicious and hateful toward Michael. Their jealousy and angst was always over the top when it came to rich, powerful POC.. 

MJ's Incentive:

At the same time, his Mgmt Co. was pushing him to Marry to quell some of the vicious gay /pedo lies the press was telling about him. They also advised him to give up his dream of marrying Di since she had been stalling him for yrs and obviously (accd'g to them)  was NOT going to marry him. On a whim, MJ asked Lisa if he were to ask a favor of her to marry him, what would she say. She gushed that she'd say YES! MJ's Mgmt LOVED the idea! She was after all a Presley! The publicity would be amazing. They made a deal with Lisa and told her, her job would be to look Pretty, go plces with him pose for pics and pretend to be a doting, happy wife. They told them to just stick it out for 2 yrs and then say Baby issues caused a break up! ALL of that was planned before they even left the states. But at SOME pt in time, MJ must have had 2nd thoughts because he asked Brooke to do the FAKE marriage AFTER Lisa had already said YES!

Brooke off the Market..

Even though Brooke and MJ faked a romance for yrs at the request of the Rec. Co. she said no because she was in love and wanted to be with her guy... MJ reluctantly planned a quickie faux wedding with lmp. I think he liked her enough, and I think he was attracted to her. she was after all, quite pretty at that time. But problem was, I think he worried that she'd fall for him and if he did not return her feelings, things might get ugly. He was absolutely right. His Mgmt pushed, begged and tried to coerce him to hurry and marry Lisa. They felt her last name was a big bonus, and they loved the whole idea... Lisa loved the idea too, and promised the media would never dare smear HER Husband. That he would finally get the peace he deserved...

Diana endorses faux marriage

GM, his Mgmt Co. has never disclosed how much money they paid Lisa. But they have 100% admitted that they DID indeed pay her! However, their plan was for MJ to marry Lisa for Real. He was not interested in doing that at all. He talked to Diana about it, (He talked to Di about everything) Di liked the idea and thought he should do it. They talked 3 hrs and both ended up crying on the phone. But Di still told him to do it. She was married to Arne and she knew he needed a "Public image wife"  MJ went 

to DR and paid the magistrate Hugo Alvarez to do the ceremony 4.5 hrs OUTSIDE his jurisdiction to make sure it was NOT legal. He also refused to attend mandatory meetings, Skipped all approvals, and misrepresented himself on all the ppwk, He did EVERYTHING in his power to make sure it was non legal and invalid. He even taped it in the tacky hotel rm to prove they couldn't possibly be in La Vega like he claimed on the paperwk.  The officials refused to sign off on his certificate but MJ said that was fine. He just needed it to LOOK REAL...

What honeymoon??

He sent Lisa to Casita that night (1 hr away) and he stayed at Casa that HM nite. Later, Hugo would lie and say that he married them at his home in Le Vega but during that time the roads were horrible and it took hours to get into La Vega. And Records prove they were in the hotel in Casa having breakfast at 10.30! They were NEVER in La Vega. Hugo was paid to lie....

Trouble begins....

After they came back from the so called Honey moon, GM began to bitterly complain that Lisa was calling all hrs of day n night. She was calling ALL of MJ's companies demanding to know his whereabouts, crying and carrying on. Soon, all his ppl were calling GM screaming that they had not told Lisa it was FAKE. GM insisted they indeed DID tell her and did not know why she was acting like Mike was her husband for Real. They said she knew it was to be in name ONLY and they were never even going to live together!  And they didnt' Lisa was at hidden hills with Danny and their children and Mike was following Diana, and staying with her. (Her children admitted this later on, that he'd been there the whole time, and when she would chg homes ( Di keeps 7 homes) half bought by Michael... But when she would chg homes, he would follow and move in on her again....Her kids laughed and said she gave up trying to make him leave...

Still in love with Diana...

JMO, but I think what killed the closeness MJ and Lisa originally shared was his inability to fall OUT OF Love with Diana. I'm sure he tried his best, but he wasn't able to. (That's why in IJCSLY) He talks about loving her ... All my life baby!  

Diana is the ONLY ONE he loved all his life, he's once again, talking about her.

• Diana was his date for the 1990 AMAs where he said on stage that he loved her beyond words 
• In 91 He told people Mag Diana was his world

• Diana was his date for the clinton Inaguation of 92 as well as the Demograt Nat Convention. 

• In 92 he dedicated dangerous, Come tog'r and RTT to Diana

• Who is is came out in 93, and he not only put Diana's name in, but he had the girl chg cloths alot ( a diana trademark) and described how Diana left him w/o a call or letter.. 

• 93 He tells Oprah, Diana quenches his fire!   

• At 93 Grammy's, he does shout out telling Di he loves her while sup'd to be with lisa!  

• Just like he did on history cd, (95) He put pic of Diana in his arms and said ALL his love was for her! while he was sup'd to be with Lisa!!

He wasn't able to let go of Diana, that's reason # 2 they never had a chance...

-----------------------------------------------------------

But back to Lisa. She was angry and bitter because she expected him to fall in love with her. And he DID CARE. But every time he was asked if he loved Lisa, he responded that he LIKED HER AND HOPED TO BE FRIENDS!!

I think Lisa felt humiliated.  She began to give intervs by phone 10 deep and she pretty much trashed him. But at the same time she was fol'wg him 

and trying to go on his tours and trying to make deals to stay together. Mike on the other hand, felt betrayed. He had begun to trust Lisa, and saw her as a confidante and friend, but she was turning into a nightmare!

Lisa contradicts herself:

 When she wasn't laughing with Marilyn Manson, calling him a baby dangler, she was giggling saying his nose was falling off. And telling RS she had never seen him without make up and who the fuck knew what was under there! By 2003, She had told SEVERAL Mags that she had not spoken to him in years,  Which was weird, considering she later tried to claim they had been dating for four yrs after the divorce!! But all anyone had to do was go back to her old intervs where she claimed to several ppl  incl Sawyer, Oprah, RS, Larry king, GQ  and others that she had not seen or spoken to him in yrs!! Just like she claimed in 05 that he called her and was crying that she said she was indifferent! That is complete bullshit. MICHAEL was the one who was indifferent to HER!! That's she she complained to Oprah that he treated her like old furniture, and she screamed at him that she was NOT going to be ignored! 

Lisa made up so many stories the NYT and B/ Sun were both asking WHY was she making up all these ridiculous stories? That's easy. Because she had fools who could watch her contradict her Own self and still convince themselves she was telling the truth!

The reason is simple. THEY WANTED it to be true...

And lets face it. Lisa had REASON to be angry. Mike was not exactly treating her well. Even when she had Mercury

poisoning in 96 his mom (who loved Lisa) had to beg him to take her around help her find a good doc and get well... And both parents had to beg him to take her to Africa with them, and if you saw that video, you saw how cool and INDIFFERENT HE WAS to her! It was completely obvious, he did not want her there...

Relationship falling apart:

So in MY opinion, I think what killed their paltry relationship is diminished Trust. MJ lost all trust in her and realized she was NOT someone he could count on, to be there for him. Hell everything he said to her went straight to the media! That's the LAST type of woman he was looking for... I think if Lisa had gone the other way, and been someone he could tell his deepest woes to, she'd have had a real chance of winning a piece of his heart. He already liked her and thought she was "really cute" as he put it. I don't think it would have taken much to convince him to give her a chance. Esp with Diana stringing him along and not marrying him after promising for Yrs that she would ... So he was ripe for something new. And he was definitely checking Lisa out...

 But the stuff about him trying to get her info and number from Branca was NOT true. MJ made that up to give the faux marriage some credibility. Branca was asked later if Michael had bugged him to get Lisa's number (somethg his Sec could have easily done in an hour!) Branca said: "In all the Yrs I've known Michael. He has Never even Mentioned Lisa to me!!"

MJ made that up to make ppl believe the marriage was real. (But it wasn't) You can't even Re Marry in DR unless you are divorced 1 Yr. Lisa was 1 month divorced! And on top of that, Danny's petition for divorce was DENIED the 1st time. They were still married when She and MJ went to DR. in fact, Lisa did not legitimately  divorce Danny until she was going to marry Nic Cage!

Conclusion:

So the reason he lost Interest is because he lost TRUST. And trust was extremely important to Michael. This is why Diana (who knew him better than almost anyone) Said to Ebony Mag

"I try to be that safe space. Someone he KNOWS he can trust. He knows I'll never tell his secrets, and he can relax here.  And he knows I'll be there for him...

If Lisa had taken a tip from    Diana's playbook, she'd have had a REAL chance.....However, there is blame on BOTH sides. They both could have tried harder and treated each other alot better....
