Rupert Everett called Michael Jackson a freak

Of the dead be nothing said but what is good.

Rupert Everett, you’re a freak to say what you say.

The most inglorious way to make people talk about you is to show disrespect to those who can’t fight back, like the dead, for example.

Shrek’s Prince Charming Rupert Everett, 50, said it was “fortuitous” that Michael Jackson died.

He was a freak. He looked like a character from Shrek. He was a black to white minstrel,” Everett told The Daily Mirror. “He was crucified by that court case when he was accused of child molestation – that killed him. He personified the pain and anxiety of a black man in a slave country. We all watched as he changed from black to white. He was living performance art.”

Are you high, Mr. Everett?

My Best Friend’s Wedding star goes on to say the notion of modern day celebrity died with Jackson.

It’s like the last days of Versailles,” he said. “I do wonder how much more bulls-t people can take about celebrities.”

Though saying this crap about the late King of Pop Rupert, who’s openly gay, finds time for self promotion and more provocative and over-the-top remarks saying he’d be happy to “leap at the chance of sleeping with Michael Jackson when I was 14.”
