Source: Michael Jackson "Got Whatever He Wanted"

Colleagues employed by and close to Michael Jackson tell me exclusively that he "got whatever he wanted" in terms of medical requests, material indulgences and otherwise. "Nobody said no to him," relayed one of Jackson's closet advisors for many years. "You just didn't dare. He didn't want to hear it."

This, despite the fact that some of those hefty pharmaceutical requests just very well may have played a major factor in the musical genius's demise.

Did no one ever warn Jackson about the perils of too many chemicals in his body? Well...

"You just didn't do that," argued the Jackson camper, "not with Michael."

Apparently some claim they weren't so mum in regard to the gambling Jackson was doing with his system: Jackson family attorney Brian Oxman claims he did warn Jackson about the dangerous drug taking, but others who were close to M.J. claim such zeal—in any opinion or direction—just wasn't welcomed by Jackson:

"He had this way of looking at you," said the Jackson colleague, "he wouldn't say anything. But you knew either you or the conversation was done if you didn't can it."

If only Michael had been a little more open to hearing the caution Oxman claims he delivered.
