How to spot a lie—Kenny Ortega Part 1

The first interview I want to talk about is Kenny Ortega’s interview with CNN from October before the release of This Is It. Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PUgdBcjrlo.
Breaking it down, this is what I see:

0:30-1:00 Kenny Ortega is asked what his reaction is to Michael’s death. He answers telling how it was good that everyone was together when they got the news. He keeps glancing off to the right especially when talking about the people that were collapsing and wandering the halls. He constantly stutters and the only time that he really looks at the interviewers is when he says, “Thank God we were together” and goes on talking about the rehearsals.

1:00 He is quick to say that Michael was fine. There is no stuttering and he is looking directly at the interviewers.

1:50-2:50 He is asked about Michael not sleeping. When he responds about the ideas that Michael said were coming to him, he keeps glancing up to the left as if he is remembering the event. There is very little stuttering and he is looking at the interviewers.

3:30-4:00 He says Michael was healthy and in the shape he wanted to be in. He stutters very little.

4:15-7:10 He talks about the film and Michael as a person. As when he mentions Michael’s health, there is no stuttering and he looks directly at the interviewers.

7:10-end I think this is the most interesting part. When he says that Michael’s life did not have to end this way he glances quickly to the right and stats stuttering and looking around for something to say. He reacts to this question in almost the same way as he did to the earlier questions at 0:30 about Michael’s death. He says that he believes Michael’s death was unnecessary and he is going to leave it at that for right now. To me, that is the weirdest statement ever.

Kenny Ortega knows something he isn’t telling. Every time the interviewers brought up Michael’s death, he became nervous as stuttered so much it was hard to understand him. When they talk about Michael being in great shape and the film, This Is It, he has no problem answering the questions and at times he seems happy and excited.

Believe.
