Uri Geller

Arguably, with the passing of Michael Jackson, the world has lost a relatively talented artist.

But with every cloud comes a silver lining.

The cloud, of course, is Jackson's brutal homicide. But the silver lining comes in the form of that great bender, Uri Gellar. Heretofore, his career as professional former friend of Jacko was very much on the decline. But, strangely enough, since Jackson's murder their friendship and, of course, his career seems to be very much back on. So that's nice.
