9 Insane Conspiracy Theories About The Illuminati And The Music Industry

5. The Illuminati Killed Michael Jackson

What is it about the death of a popular figure that makes society search for some sort of concealed €œtruth€? Perhaps it's a merely a coping mechanism. Whatever the reason, though, Michael Jackson is another musician whose death generated a conspiracy theory. Specifically, many believe that Jackson was a member of the Illuminati, and that they ultimately decided to murder him. Why? Well, the cover for 1991's Dangerous contains a massive array of colourful images, many of which could be described as occult, including mysterious creatures decked out like royalty, a suspicious-looking eye and a doorway into some sort of underground city (in the centre of which the earth sits). This is supposedly meant to represent Jackson "looking through" the organisation, as his eyes can be seen staring from behind. It's believed that Jackson wanted to leave the organization, and so the Illuminati fabricated the child molestation accusations in order to try and stifle and discredit him, a show of their immense power. Nevertheless Jackson continued his attempt, and was ultimately murdered for fear of what he might tell the media. Who comes up with this stuff?
