AC Milan’s Kevin Prince-Boateng works up a modest little title celebration (hee heeee!)

In addition to being an obvious fan of Michael Jackson, here’s something you may not have known about AC Milan’s Kevin Prince-Boateng. From Wikipedia: Earlier on in his career, Boateng developed a serious shopping addiction as a result of personal problems. Boateng claims that he still owns “around 200 caps, around 20 leather jackets, and 160 pairs of shoes” following the ordeal. Other things the footballer is known to have bought include a Lamborghini, Hummer, and a Cadillac, all in one day for a six-figure fee.
He’s apparently kicked the shopping addiction, but not the need to moonwalk.
In April he had told Gazzetta dello Sport: ‘If we are to win the Scudetto, I will dance the moonwalk dressed as Michael Jackson, hopefully on the pitch. I have never won anything important in my career. The Scudetto would be a great conquest.’
AC Milan clinched its first Scudetto in seven years last week, and returned to the San Siro on Saturday to beat Cagliari 4-1. Then the party was on.
Not sure what it is with European soccer and Michael Jackson: something about admiration for footwork? The answer is shrouded in mystery.

Way to go loser. Imitate a child molester. Oh alleged I’m sorry. I was just thinking that since he spent money to hush victims or accusers instead of clearing his name, that pretty much makes him a child molester. I mean think about it, would you pay someone 27 million to go away or if you didn’t do it would you fight to keep your name out of the mud. I am just a hater, no so much of M.Jackson but of child molesters. I don’t understand how people act like he was this great person. He was a sick POS. Granted he had no childhood and was crippled because of it, but that doesn’t give him the right to do what he did.
