Michael Jackson musical will blame sex abuse allegations on the glove

"It turns out, [the glove] can give people magical musical talent if it drinks their blood and has part of their body inside of it. But it can only feed on virgin boy blood."

WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. F*CK.

Just so everyone is clear, this is NOT the same Michael Jackson musical that is coming to Broadway this summer. This is a different Michael Jackson musical being produced in LA.

Not saying that changes anything about how gross this is, just making it clear to avoid confusion.

Ugh ... can we pray that this musical never get the funding to make it to a stage?

I wish I had screenshot it earlier but I swear I saw Johnny Depp was listed as a producer on their website. This whole thing kinda feels like a prank of some sort? Like a Nathan for You sketch.

I can hear Bialystock slapping the script on the table and saying "No, it's too good..."

"An earlier version of the story listed Johnny Depp and his production company Infinitum Nihil as producers of For the Love of a Glove. There is currently a dispute over credits and a rep for Depp says that he and his company are not producing and not involved in any way."

They can use the JAGGED LITTLE PILL hand logo but with updated title and more sequins.

Didn't OJ try that defense? It worked for him.

Yes, the original article from THR doesn't mention it, but on the other hand, that's not a Broadway site. The News Desk needs to do better."

I think the "news Desk" byline is used when press releases are run verbatim, there isn't usually any reporting or even editing.
