Werts does have some reasonable criticism of fan mentality. He notes that "`Sell Out' [from Turn the Radio Off] was making fun of kids who condemned No Doubt and Sublime for selling out.

The video for the song Outside, which MTV plans to debut this Wednesday, features a public bathroom morphing into a disco as Michael, dressed as a policeman, sings of the pleasures of alfresco sex while dancing with a harem of underattired women. The video was shot 15 miles from the Beverly Hills, Calif., park where the singer was arrested last April. It seems the judge who sentenced him possessed a slightly less evolved...
