Looking at this "transcript" while more harmless than
some parodies of and jokes about Michael, this I think
I'm glad I missed. Not the nicest--to Michael and to
Sharon and Ozzy.

I do! TV Eyes alerted me to it and I was able to see Justin Timberlake impersonating Michael Bolton in a Sharon Osbourne Show spoof. Here's the script via TV Eyes (with a little editing for those who missed it) <3 Linda
WNBC 10/12/03 - 12:28 AM... I’m Sharon Osbourne.That’s right; Mrs. O is in the house.I can’t believe I’m actually here hosting my own show [cheers and applause].We’ve got a great show today.We’ve got famous people and normal people.We’ve got Quentin Tarantino; we’ve got Michael Bolton; we’ve got the Reynolds family on.They’ re a family where literally everyone they know has died or been killed.We’re going to hear their story.All right let’s get to it…[interviews Quentin Tarantino and then MB]
[SO] Michael! Michael Bolton!Michael tells me, when are you going to have your comeback?
[MB] Well, I do have a new album out..
[SO] Oh, no, talk about your old album.That’s the one I like [laughter].Isn’t that right, Minnie? [kissing the dog] We like the old album.
[MB] Well, I think you’d really like my new album, because it’s got all the same songs on it as my old album [laughter] except I’ve stopped eating meat, and you can really hear that in my voice now.
[SO] There’s something different about you, Mike.Where is your long hair?I loved your long, long hair!
[MB]I cut it off in ‘96 and I donated it this great organization called Gigs and Wigs [laughter].It ‘s an organization where rockers donate their hair to kids with alopecia.
[SO]Oh, that’s wonderful!We have a picture of that, don’t we?Let’s see it [laughter as they show pic of a little boy with long hair].Doesn’t he look sexy?I love little kids with long hair!YEAH!We’re going to hear Michael sing.Michael you have to sing to Minnie [holding up dog] because this is my show and these are my rules and Minnie loves music.
[MB] How am I supposed to live without you now that I’ve been loving you so long? How am I supposed to live without you?How am I supposed to carry on when all that I’ve been living for is gone?
[SO]Oh, that was wonderful!YAY! [cheers and applause]
[Ozzie comes out]Sharon stop that racket!I can’t get me pretzel –
[SO]Oh, no!I’ve got to help daddy with his pretzels!I’d like to apologize to the Reynolds family.We ran out of time…
NOw that I've had some sleep, I can comment further.
The one frame from "Said I Love You But I Lied" is
another one I like. As far as his hair has ever gone,
I take either way, but this one is one of the better
"longhair" pics. The one I mentioned about eariler
was the fourth one. It looks like he's modeling the
wardrobe he's wearing for a catalog of some kind
Don't know if he is for sure, thought that would be
interesting.
Oh--before I forget, for those who get these channels,
"Snow Dogs" is playing multiple times between now and
mid-Novermber. I will post the schedule later on. By
all means pass it on! :)
