Actor Rupert Everett says he wasn't shocked by Michael Jackson's death.

And, to be frank, he thinks the King of Pop is better off.

RupertEve_RonG_14406163_600i "He was a freak," Everett, 50, told the British paper the Mirror. "He looked like a character from Shrek. He was a black to white minstrel. ..."

Jackson "personified the pain and anxiety of a black man in a slave country," Everett added "We all watched as he changed from black to white. He was living performance art. I think it was fortuitous that he died."

Hmm, is that the pot calling the kettle surgically altered? Compare these two pics for yourself.

Of Jackson's planned London concerts, Rupert stated, "It wouldn't have mattered how good or bad he was. He wouldn't have managed to do all of them, and the press would have destroyed him."

What do you think? Is Rupert right? Or should he shut up about Michael Jackson?

I don't think rupert everett should be calling anyone a freak.

Rupert Everett is a has been and is jealous of all the attention Michael Jackson is getting from the media. MJ had vitiligo and lupus worse than people ever knew. Rupert used to be handsome but now he is scary with his new forehead and chin. He looks like Frankenstein. He says mean things about everyone and gets away with it because he is a celebrity.

Michael Jackson was a great singer/dancer and a brilliant, creative genius who did a lot of philanthropic work and deserves respect. He was honored by two Republican US presidents!

Nice, A cold hearted human being! I bet his Kid's don't think he is better off Dead and I know a million Fans feel the same way. He had a huge heart and the world has suffered a loss, not only his music but all the good things he did for other people!

i hate people who judge. rupert should not talk about things he dont know about he is such a prejedice person. he should not say to people about dieing. it is not right for him to do that. maybe is one that killed him for what he just said that is so wrong. i love michael peace be with you michael we love you. and my thoughts are with the family.

How could you even talk like that you never wish death on anyone I love Michael& his family So maybe your the freak,No maybe you wish you were michael

Who the hell is Everett? How can a no talent like Everett even have the nerve to give his opinion on Michael Jackson. To say Better of dead.. what a mean things to say. Everett just wants to get his name out in the media. BUT HE IS A NOBODY..and who cares what he has to say!!

Rupert YOU are the freak! Look in the mirror! MJ RIP.

who the hell does that guy think he is?

bloody racist idiot, i hope he dies the most brutal and painful death >:(

I just feel that it is very rude and you can not judge someone unless you wlaked in the shoes of being a Jackson. We have no idea what went on behind closed doors and God loves him as much as anyone else.

how can you wish anyone dead? Michael was not just an amazing performer but an amazing person. people who lack intelligence can never understand genius. and has rupert actually looked in the mirror recently???
