Michael Jackson's Hollywood Tonight Was Changed

 

The music video changed the fundamental message of the original song. It left out the entire third verse.

 

"She gave up her life to follow her dreams (Again, babe) Left behind everything for the movie scene Nothing more she could want, she was determined to follow her plan She wanted Hollywood, she wanted it bad Now that she got her dream, she became a star It all looked so good, but only good from afar Imprisoned in every paparazzi's camera, every guy wished they could Now it's back to reality for Ms. Hollywood"

 

Even that was a replacement for what Michael Jackson had originally written for the song.

 

"She’s streetwalking at her age. She’s so young and she’s afraid. She sold her body to get paid. It’s too much for a girl at her age. Police is stalking her today. They now know she ran away. She is running home she’s scared. All she can do now is pray. She doesn’t even have a ticket. She doesn’t even have a way back home. She’s lost and she’s alone. There’s no place for her to go. She is young and she is cold. Just like her mother told her so."

 

The hot tricks that the song mentions she is giving to men to get in is not referring to breakdancing in the streets, like the music video portrays. What kind of tricks would she be giving to men that she was taught was not clean? Michael Jackson's Hollywood song was warning about negative things that could happen if a 15 year old tried to run away to Hollywood. However, the Hollywood industry edited the music video in order to portray itself in a positive way instead of allowing Michael Jacksons true vision and purpose to be presented.
