One of the late pop singer’s financial advisors… and also a good friend of Joe Jackson, Leonard Rowe, recently claimed that Michael Jackson was killed for his music rights which he apparently refused to sell. This is what Leonard Rowe said on the matter: “Michael always felt he would be killed for his catalog. When he was speaking about it, I paid him no attention but as the latest events have unfolded, I couldn’t help but think about his statement – and it still haunts me today.” But of course! It all makes sense now: Conrad Murray’s medical license, the great profits after Michael Jackson’s death… why, Joe Jackson is actually the only good guy in all of this and he’s just trying to protect his son’s legacy from the greedy corporations!

It’s probably taking the court too long to grant him a bigger allowance from Michael Jackson’s estate, so Joe Jackson has decided to take matters into his own hands and get his money the old-fashioned way: he’s going to sue. Joe Jackson has taken it upon himself to wrong the injustices done by a number of media outlets that actually had the gall to show pictures of his late son, Michael Jackson, being taken away on a gurney on the day of his death. Joe Jackson demands that justice be served since those images were private family matters and he wants compensations for the harm done… for his family, but probably more for himself. It would’ve probably been very difficult for Michael Jackson’s spirit to find its rest if it wasn’t for the valiant efforts of Joe Jackson.

Michael Jackson’s live-in doctor, Dr. Conrad Murray, has been somewhat uncooperative with police and has kept trying to avoid recent interrogations. Just last week, the US Drug Enforcement Agency and police officers raided the doctor’s Houston office where they reportedly seized several items. Now, some reports are saying that some of the doctor’s files have suddenly gone missing on the day of the King of Pop’s death. There are claims that two women were spotted going to the doctor’s storage facility in Houston and took with them files and several boxes. The women were spotted at 9:22AM. The police were called to the late singer’s home at 12:21PM. What did they take from storage?

Tito Jackson can’t seem to stop talking about his late brother, the King of Pop Michael Jackson. The former Jackson 5 member recently said that Michael’s dancing not only made him an icon but also helped the singer escape the abuse from their father Joe Jackson. Tito said “Most of the time Michael was so quick my father couldn’t hit him. He’d swing the belt and Michael would be over there, he’d swing again and Michael would be over here. My father used to just stop and laugh because he couldn’t hit him. Michael would just dance around him. My father would get tired and give up.”

Contrary to earlier reports, the LAPD’s investigation of Michael Jackson’s death is not being treated as a homicide. An officer informed reporters on Wednesday that the investigation regarding the singer’s sudden death is still ongoing and is on no way defined as a homicide case. The King of Pop’s live-in doctor, Dr. Conrad Murray, who many believe to have supplied Michael with Propofol, is still being questioned by the authorities. In contrast, Michael’s dermatologist, Dr. Arnold Klein, has been cleared after turning over the complete medical records of the singer to the LA County Coroner’s office. I still think there’s something fishy with Dr. Klein though.

Katherine Jackson has found the space to let her tears for Michael flow.

“It’s finally hit her. She’s been crying a lot. Her eyes are constantly red. She can’t believe Michael is gone,” said a source.

Katherine has been meeting her duty as temporary guardian to Jackson’s three young children while confronting the loss of her phenomenally talented son.

“She feels horrible for those children,” the source said of Paris, 11, Prince Michael I, 12, and Blanket, seven. “[But] she’s determined to remain strong for them,” the source added.

The custody hearing for the children is set for July 20. Katherine was named as guardian in a will of Jackson’s that surfaced after his death.

Katherine is fiercely protective of all her family, the source continued. “She is very upset about all the Joe bashing and all the things that are being said about him. Michael’s kids love Grandpa Joe. Hearing him trashed makes Katherine really angry.”

Michael Jackson’s heartbroken children last night (Tues) stepped out in public for the first time since the King of Pop’s funeral.

The late singer’s son’s Prince Michael and Blanket, and daughter Paris put on a brave face as they were taken to a Jehova’s Witnesses service in Los Angeles.

Michael’s oldest sister Rebbie Jackson, their nanny Grace Rwaramba and some cousins, accompanied the youngsters to the Kingdom Hall.

Paris, who made a moving speech about her love for her dad at his public memorial service last week, could be seen carrying a ‘Sing Praises To Jehova’ book as she walked into the service.

Some but not all of the test results of Michael Jackson’s autopsy are back.

It is widely believed that crucial toxicology results have been returned.

“Some of the test results are in for Michael Jackson, not all of them. We don’t release a partial list of results, we wait until all of the results are in and then make it public,” Ed Winter, assistant chief coroner in Los Angeles, revealed.

Winter said: “We are going to try and give the media one day’s notice about the announcement. I can’t comment on if the brain of Michael Jackson has been returned to the family, nor any other elements of the investigation.”

Winter indicated his office hasn’t shared the test results with the Jackson family.

Whether or not the investigation into Jackson’s sudden death on June 25 turns into a criminal probe is expected to hinge on the toxicology report.

More and more rumblings are coming out that Michael Jackson’s rumored drug abuse problem was linked to anaesthesia. Reports have suggested that he had doctors prescribe the medication to use in his home, something that is never done. Now, reports are saying that the late singer had many medical procedures, many that didn’t require anaesthesia, simply so he could request for it. The procedures were mostly as minor as collagen injections, Botox and acne treatment but he would demand to be put under or sedated even though it wasn’t medically necessary. If this is true, it not only gives us a glimpse into the King of Pop’s drug problem but also the amount of surgeries that he endured.

Despite being pregnant, Grammy and Oscar-winning singer and actress Jennifer Hudson attended and gave a wonderful performance of ‘Will You Be There (Hold Me)’ at the Michael Jackson public memorial service which was held at the Staples Center this past Tuesday in Los Angeles. The song was released as one of the late King of Pop’s singles in 1993. The song also appeared on the soundtrack to the movie ‘Free Willy’. Michael’s music proves to be timeless and I can only hope that his music will live on and forever be remembered. I actually feel sorry for future generations for not getting the chance to see the master do his thing. Rest in peace.

Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris believes her famous father has “gone to live with the angels” after his sudden death, a friend of the pop legend has revealed.

Jackson died suddenly in LA on 25 June, after reportedly suffering a heart attack. He left behind his three children Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and Prince Michael II, six, who is also known as Blanket.

Jacko’s long-term pal Mark Lester spoke to the superstar’s daughter Paris two days after the singer’s tragic death, he revealed.

“I spoke with Paris who told me: ‘Mark, don’t worry, Daddy has gone to live with the angels now. Can we still come and stay with you?’” said the Oliver! actor, who is godfather to the three children.

Lester also dismissed rumours that Jackson was stressed out preparing for his upcoming tour, and said that he had never looked so good.

“I’d never seen him [Michael] so invigorated or alive. He was excited in that kind of way he had which was enchanting,” said Lester.

Lester also revealed that the King of Pop’s youngest son Blanket could be the “next Michael Jackson”.

“He [Blanket] could easily be the next Michael Jackson. He loved to dance with his dad and Michael taught him to do the moonwalk.”

The 911 caller at the scene of Michael Jackson’s medical emergency has been identified as a security guard.

According to RadarOnline, Alberto Alverez was working at Jackson’s rented mansion.

Police have already questioned Alverez, who placed the call as Conrad Murray, a personal physician to Jackson, administered CPR to the pop singer.

The Los Angeles Police Department said the questioning was not part of a criminal investigation. RadarOnline claimed its sources say it is only a matter of time before it turns into one.

In the call, Alverez said: “We have a gentleman here who needs help, he’s not breathing, we’re trying to pump him but he’s not breathing.”

The voice of Murray can also be heard on the 911 tape. Paramedics arrived within minutes. Jackson was taken to UCLA Medical Center and worked on for at least an hour before he was pronounced dead.

The heart-throb of millions of girls Zac Efron has also become the sweetheart of the pop legend Michael Jackson.

Lately Michael Jackson talked to the adorable Zac Efron on the set of “High School Musical 3” and congratulated him on his enormous success in the entertainment industry.

Zac Efron expressed his feelings as, “I’ve been wanting to talk to Michael Jackson my whole life, but as soon as Kenny handed me the phone, I was at a loss for words. I have never been so speechless.”

Efron further added, “He said he loves High School Musical. It was motivation for us, and encouragement.”

I think that the boy-lover Michael Jackson is eyeing Zac Efron this time.

Be ware, Efron! Jackson’s past record is not very bright as far as his liking of boys is concerned.
