Thanks for ruining all those Farrah Fawcett fantasies.

That's not nice or clever, and isn't it a little homophobic?

Aaaaagh, my eyes!

Better than Michael Jackson molesting some 6 year old on the cover.

I'd hit that.

Creepy and gross. What else could we expect?

That's messed up man. I mean that in a good way.

fucking WORSE cover ever. just bad painting, bad concept, and at the same time as ruining the serious sadness of jacksons and fawcetts death. also just irritating. so embarrased to have this is my bathroom.

did a retard draw this? bad BAD decision.

Nothing's worse than a real pic of Mike.

Especially when he was sportin' the only fake five o clock shadow known to mankind.

Farrah Jackson?

@2: Huh? How would a hybrid Farah/MJ portrait be homophobic, exactly?

Too bad Ed McMahon isn't in there too.

My first thought upon seeing this: Why Latoya?

I think the background could have been a little more, oh I don't know, evolved or something. Vaguely Mexican ginormous stripey beach towels are pretty early 80's, don't you think?
hi ho

@17, evolve the background? Surely you know this is taken right from the original photo...

Ugly, gross and crass.

@17 for the win. Cover for the Epic Fail.

Farrah had the awesomest nipples.

jackie treehorn 22
Now I get it. The surgically-created chinny-button hole was actually a sub-oral access port itty bitty boy penis. One more mystery solved. Thanks, gang!

PS RESPECK

Have you seen the shirts with MJ's mug shot face superimposed over Che Guevara's iconic face? Those are hilarious.

It should be on every teenage boy's wall across America (oh... wait...)

Another outstanding effort. I salute you.

Thanks, I just scratched my corneas with a Brillo pad trying to eradicate that image.

What do you expect from a hack newspaper?

By the Gods, that cover sucks.
Posted by TheRain on July 1, 2009 at 3:47 PM
merry 31
LOL - We seem to be pretty divided over this one...

FWIW, I think it's funny.. and also touching, in that, at least on this Stranger cover, Michael is remembered as being the way he always wanted to be.. a beautiful white woman....

eric (the other one) 32
Profoundly disrespectful, and therefore perfect!

Drawmark 33
Brilliant. I do hope Jay will be selling posters, because who wouldn't want that hanging up in their bedroom? I know I do.

Poor MJ only wished he had nipples that perky. Then again, who doesn't?

@12, making fun of Jackson by saying he's a girl (i.e., too gay) strikes me as homophobic.
Posted by left coast on July 1, 2009 at 7:11 PM

It's a Farrah homunculus! (has nothing to do with sexual orientation, assholes. look it up.)
Posted by idaho on July 1, 2009 at 11:57 PM

Perfect with a few revisions: Transform the right boob into a bust of Ed McMahon, and sculpt the her (his?) bush into the virile beard of Billy Mays.

Deeply disturbing.... very cool!
