Essence of Michael Jackson

From The Smoking Gun: "In a full-bodied blend of blasphemy and ingenuity, a Los Angeles couple is seeking to market a wine called 'Jesus Juice' that bears a label showing a Michael Jackson-like figure appearing to be crucified."

"Jesus Juice" is a merlot and "the brainchild of actress Dawn Westlake and Bruce Rheins, a veteran CBS Evening News producer who headed the network's coverage of the Jackson child molestation case. Westlake and Rheins filed to trademark the 'Jesus Juice' name in January 2004, two months after the entertainer was arrested and days after news outlets first reported that Jackson used the term 'Jesus Juice' when referring to wine he allegedly gave minors." The proposed J.J. logo "features a photo of a barely clad man with a sequined glove, shiny loafers, stringy hair, and a black fedora that obscures his face."
