"I've met a lot of world celebrities, but Michael is very different," said Boteach, who has snagged headlines for helping comedian Roseanne find shiduchim, or matches, for her daughters. "He is extremely innocent, humble, eager to learn, eager to listen and pro- foundly spiritual," said Boteach, who recently moved back to New York after living in England for years.

University Musical Society 734.764.2538 www.ums.org of the University of Michigan • Ann Arbor Michael Jackson thrilled to the beat at Sabbath services in a Manhattan synagogue. In 1995, Jackson created somewhat of a stir in the Jewish community for his song, "They Don't Care About Us," which contained the lines, "Jew me/sue me, Everybody do me, Kick me/kike me, don't you black or white me." However, he later promised the Anti- Defamation League that a statement of intent and clarification would be includ- ed with all copies of the new song — and that he would issue a new version of the song without the offensive lyrics. In a letter to the ADL, Jackson wrote, "Just the idea that my lyrics could offend and hurt anyone's feel- ings is extremely painful to me." But Jackson allowed the old version to remain in the song's video. — Julie Wiener Jewish.
