Michael Jacksons best friend speaks out "He was confused and lonely!" Plus was MJ being over over-medicated?

Michael Jackson's close friend Uri Geller has spoken out to Us Weekly about the king of pop's untimely death.

"I'm devastated. I just don't want to believe it," says Geller ""He is my best friend. I just can't believe."

Geller also told Sky News that he believed Jackson to be in fine health.

"He was in good shape. ... I'm not a doctor, but I can only assume he was under immense stresses and pressures, and you can ask any doctor, stress is a killer," he said. "The pressure of these concerts, putting under huge pressures, he was a perfectionist. That could have been what did it. But that's just my opinion."

Jackson was set to headline 50 sold-out shows at London's O2 Arena beginning in July, billed "This Is It" -- his final London performances.

"I think it was a mistake to target 50 shows. 3, 4, 5 maybe 10 shows is enough," said Geller. "He was healthy, aerobically fit. I remember him here in my house, and he wouldn't touch junk food. So now... to confront this devastating reality that Michael is dead is just... I want to wake up tomorrow and think this is a dream and that he is not dead."

Added Geller, "He was a happy man when fans were around - he drank their love. He loved what he did, but somewhere in his deep dark corners of his heart, he was a confused man and a lonely person. The reason was because nobody could understand him.

"He is in heaven now, a better place than us. God rest his soul." [SOURCE]

Gellar isn't the only one to speak out though, with one of Jackson's attorneys Brian Oxman telling CNN that he thought MJ was over-medicating.

"I talked to his family about it. I warned them. I said 'Michael is overmedicating' (and that) ... it's all going to break our hearts. It was a serious problem"

Oxman said Jackson was taking painkillers to deal with chronic problems related to old injuries, including a broken leg and fractured vertebrae.

But, asked to say who might have been enabling the overmedication he claims was happening, Oxman would not name names.

"I don't want to make finger-pointed of any kind" until a cause of death is determined, Oxman said. [SOURCE]

Buckle up everybody because this is only the tip of the iceberg. Can you imagine all the lies and truths that are about to come out about MJ? Every man and their dog will be trying to get some publicity from this and it's going to be extremely hard to separate fact from fiction. Will the autopsy finally reveal the secrets behind Michaels plastic surgery? Who will take his children? Is he even their biological father? Is he bankrupt? There are a lot of questions about Michael and his secretive life, which lets face it, we all want to know, but I hope he can be remembered for his talent and contribution to the arts first and foremost, and not all the controversy and tabloid scandals.
