Michael Jackson 'sued for $20 million'

Michael Jackson 'sued for $20 million'



Michael Jackson has been sued for $20 million (£14m), it has been reported.

The music icon has been accused of breaching his contract with AllGood Entertainment.

The contract allegedly prohibited the pop star from performing any solo engagements before partaking in a contractual Jackson 5 reunion concert, reports Tour Dates.

Jackson has since confirmed a deal with AEG Live to participate in a 50-date residency next month at London's O2 arena.

AllGood Entertainment released said in a statement: "This is a case where the little guy followed the rules and was pushed aside by industry giants AEG and the Jacksons for the promise of bigger money and movies."

The company has claimed that Jackson and his manager Frank Dileo "secretly teamed up with AEG" and signed onto the UK deal.

AllGood added: "Dileo and the Jacksons must be held accountable for violating AllGood's rights under a contract which was signed two full months prior to AEG's O2 London agreement."

The Jackson 5 reunion concert has been postponed until July 3, 2010.

unique - I'm all for you posting news/tabloid/gossip articles as you find them on the web - but why do you insist on including images that aren't related to the story nor even part of the original post.

If you want us to respect your point of view on things, then perhaps not modifying articles might go a long way.

Concert opener

With the tour kicking off in a month, what do people think will be the opening song for the show?

For me I think Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' is a safe bet.

Does anyone have another song they would love to see MJ start with and why?

(refrain from giving dream setlists as that has been covered here)

Swa

I heard it may be Thriller


See the problem with Thriller being an opening song is that it doesn't create any excitement. It is further placed in the set for a reason.

For me opening songs need to kick off the show in a way that gets you excited and leads you into the main event. It's similar with albums.

For me Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' is the most likely opener because of precedence and because it is a killer track to open with - the statement says it all.

Others I think would be great for this purpose are:

Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough (agree with Timmy here and from what I understand hasn't been a show opener)
Music and Me (though I think this would be a great video collage to play just before the show begins)
I even think Invincible could work if they extended that whole industrial feel of the intro.

Not all MJ fans are insincere when it comes to debate. Most of us, and maybe it comes with age, can call him on his shit. But I also think that it's natural to defend when you are being attacked, or feel you are for who you support.

It's like the whole prince phase with Prince. Many fans felt they had to defend the change and the whole "no name" concept to the hilt, when really it had pros and cons to it.

I guess all I seem to be asking for here is respect for fellow fans and not to lump all of us into one generalisation.

So as a fan I welcome debate, because it often shows a different point of view, but only when the debate itself is sincere and not just a deliberate attempt to be divisive (and no I'm not claiming you are trying to be).

I'm only ignoring the big long essays. Internet forums are fun. You know, surf in your leisure time. It's Saturday morning here for me. I wanna relax biggrin

For the record, I stopped even caring one iota about MJ's many boring lawsuits, his skin, his surgery etc. 5 years ago to this day (anniversary of the trial verdict). It's just so BORING.

Personally for me, I'm just grateful I'll get to see him on stage again in about a month. Expecting the worst of course, but it won't be the end of the world and if I'm pessimistic about it, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.
[Edited 6/13/09 1:00am]

I feel exactly the same way.

I am amazed at some people´s (=hater´s) posts here. They keep on calling MJ fans loons but I wish I had the energy and passion they have when it comes to discuss things they hate and finding 100 000 ways of explaining people how stupid they are to discuss something I love.

Jackson 'hires Ferrigno to get in shape'

Monday, June 15 2009, 10:23 BST

By Mayer Nissim, Entertainment Reporter
Jackson 'hires Ferrigno to get in shape'



Michael Jackson has reportedly hired TV star Lou Ferrigno to help him improve his fitness ahead of his upcoming live residency at London's O2.

The bodybuilder and actor played the title role in CBS's The Incredible Hulk from 1978 to 1982.

A source told The Sun: "Lou has been visiting Michael to build him up so he can perform his dance routines.

"But Jacko refuses to lift weights. He doesn't want to bulk up."

Ferrigno reportedly said: "Michael is more delicate. Our trainer conditioned him for dancing. He likes me - he feels safe with me, he feels protected. He was nervous about people looking at him when he was training."

lol I love that story. It's over 10 years old and they rehash it every couple of years. Ferrigno was in the Liberian Girl video. Apparently MJ was asked about it back in 1999 and pissed himself laughing at the idea.

Reminds me of the MadTV Action Jackson skit.

Proof? Any objective, intelligent person reading my debates with MJ loons wouldn't need proof, but since you're asking I'll give examples. Loons persistently claim he only mimes because it's hard to sing and dance at the same time. When you point out that he also mimes ballads which have no dancing in them, they completely ignore this and repeat the same already discredited argument. Rather than acknowledge the counter argument, they just pretend not to have heard it. That is devious.

I made the point that only shit singers mime in concert and proved it by asking Suga10 to name some good singers who do this. In response, he named Britney Spears and Madonna, even though he later admitted he knew full well they are shit singers. So he was being dishonest and devious when he listed them as good singers who mime (he also ignored the fact that Madonna's recent shows have been 100% live anyway). An honest response would have been to acknowledge the truth of my point, but he couldn't do that because it would reflect badly on his idol.

These are just small examples of the dishonesty that characterizes the MJ loon (please don't ask for more examples coz we'll be here all day, there are so many). The fact that they are completely oblivious to their own deceptions only underlines the necessity of blinding oneself if one wants to preserve a fantasy image of MJ. Self deception is an essential component of being an MJ fanatic. The strategy is to evade, evade, evade.

And by the way, the fact that you are speculating about my sexuality only provides more evidence of how immature and unsophisticated you are. Do you have any idea how childish that is? No, of course you don't. You're an MJ fan.


i never speculated about your sexuality, that was an example but i'm sure you heard sex and ran with it.

oh and you are a hypocrite you can yap and call mj fans devious, but when the tables are turned you have nothing to say.

for example the vitiligo debate. many haters on here still insist that it is possible for a medium brown skin person to bleach themselves completely white. but when i asked numerous times for these people to provide evidence that this has been done before such as pictures. what did they provide? nothing. they simply avoided the question and to this day still have not provided any proof that its possible but still insist that mj bleached his skin.

They post that same tired wikipedia quote and insist that's enough proof, however if you turn the tables you will see these same haters demanding video proof that mj can play instruments. so it's okay for them to only have a wikipedia article for them to be right, but album credits and word testimonies aren't enough for fans to be right, they must have video proof. you are a Hypocrite. so don't try to chastise mj fans when you haters do the exact same thing and do it worse i might add

I don't want to get into the vitiligo thing, but there are very good grounds for doubting his story. You say no black person has ever bleached themselves white before, but I've never heard of any vitiligo sufferer getting gradually whiter like Michael either. I read a link you posted of a supposed example, but the source was a website run by MJ fanatics that was totally devoted to exonerating Michael of every charge ever laid against him. It was clearly an untrustworthy source. I actually think wikipedia is a far more trustworthy source than a website devoted to defending MJ.

And by the way, look what I've just done. You made a point and I responded to it. Your point was COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT since as you yourself said, I have not participated in the vitiligo debates you're mentioning, but nonetheless, I was at least courteous enough to acknowlege your irrelevant point and give some kind of direct response. By contrast you have completely ignored my points about MJ's miming, which were actually pertinent to the subject in hand (MJ fans deviousness in debates). This proves everything I've been saying. I am simply more honest than you. I don't try to dodge points or change the subject half way through, as you just did.

Not all MJ fans are insincere when it comes to debate.

It sounds like you just completely ignored my earlier post. I gave very specific examples of deviousness among his fans. Typically, all the respondents (including you) have ignored those points, which only proves once again how right I am. You guys are NOT sincere. If you can't respond to the examples I gave then don't bother responding at all, because you only prove my point about how evasive you guys are.

Absolute bullshit. All you have to do is read some of the bizarre rationalizations given on the previous page for MJ's miming to see these people cannot judge him objectively or be honest with themelves. One of them actually said MJ only started miming in concert cos everyone else was doing it so he just followed the crowd. eek If I was to try and think up the most dishonest explanation possible, I couldn't top that. Not only is it a flat out lie (no one else was miming in concert when Michael started doing it in 1988), but it's stupid. Why would a good singer copy the bad habits of shit singers? That's like a stud taking Viagra. If God has given you a natural gift then you don't need to cheat, and what's more, you don't WANT to cheat. wink

Her shows are never 100% live, it varies from tour to tour, on the latest/current one, the backing tape comes in several times, but her mic is always on. Best evidence is "She's Not Me" where the bridge and the chorus has the tape playing but she shouts over that.

And also, Madonna never mimed as much as MJ did on the HIStory tour, and never the ballads, or songs where she stood still. It's just that people are used to Madonna not sounding the same on record as live since day one, but when MJ failed to recreate the same vocals as he did on records, he had to change to miming.

I'm gonna get burned for this, but the HIStory tour was only slightly better than the latest Britney Spears tour when it came to miming. Like how Britney mimes the only ballad of the show while she's sitting, MJ was miming the likes of "Earth Song" & "Heal The World". Embarrassing.

MJ never got gradually lighter. If you look at some pics from 86-89 he's practically completely black as if it's 1984 again. It was seriously caked on make-up in 99% of public appearances though. You'd never guess that Captain EO was shot in 1985 as in public at the time he was as he was during We Are The World.

There are pics from late in the Bad era with proper dark skin, whereas in the videos and on tour he was a butterscotch colour.

I work with a guy with Vitiligo and he doesn't cover it up. He could pretty much go either way if he wanted to use make-up to be all one colour.

I do think MJ has gradually used bleaching to even out the patches, but that's no reason to think he's lying about Vitiligo. I mean FFS, his doctor testified under oath about his condition when that silly genitalia description shit was going on. I've got a photo from the Bad era where he's the same colour as he was a few years before and his face is also all red and sore like it's flaming up.

Why don't you go back to the KOP or MJJc or whatever they call his forums where everyone believes in lots of coincidences and have excuses upon excuses about MJ descent into complete weirdness. If you don't want people criticising MJ then it's a little stupid posting controversial things on another artist website, even if it is in the NoN-prince forum.


umm hello, we are not the ones posting tabloids. That's Unique and Naughty Kitty....

Wrong. I post news articles on MJ, some of them may come from tabloids, others come from legit news outlets. Unless you're referring to my posting of Roger Friedman articles, in which i consider his articles to be hit or miss. Sometimes he's right on the money, other times...not so much.

I would think it'd be easier to use makeup and darken the lighter, affected areas than to lighten his natural color to match the patches.

I recently read (or watched an interview, can't remember now) where Stevie Nicks said that before some performance, MJ sent someone to borrow some foundation from her, specifiying 'the lightest she had'. She said he sent it back, thanking her but didn't want it because it wasn't light enough. WTF?! lol

whether you believe it or ( and i don't really care) that story i posted was from aperson who was not an mj fan she just had vitiligo and happened to come across that website and posted her story. besides she had picture evidence of her transformation using makeup. so i don't get what you're arguing about. why am i even talking to you. you are the laughing stock of about 90% of the people on here

its simple if most of your skin is stil brown, you use brown makeup( like he did in the early/mid 80's) if most of its white it makes sense to use a whiter makeup rather than paint your body brown. understand? people always ask why he didn't use brown makeup, but they don't realize he did at first.

You can alway post excusively on the MJ forums, where no one is allowed to criticise Michael, that way you wouldn't need to get so defensive and you would be preaching to like minded people who believe 100% in coincidences.

There people who have over 50% vitiligo over their body and they still manage to wear brown makeup or the makeup that matches their original complexion. With MJ however you could actually see in some pictures back the mid to late 80s his face at times was so much lighter than his hands.

And you would have thought that it would have been much easier to write in his biography Moonwalk that he had vitiligo rather than pretending it was studio lightening and a different hairstyle that was making him look so different. Instead he left it until he had become snow-white and was cornered by Oprah before he stated he had a "skin disease".

Why would you not expect to be banned? You think you can go to an Elvis board and dwell on his negativty and nothing will be said to you? Go attack Whitney Houston's fuckedupness and watch what her fans say. No fanbase should be expected to put up with unnecessary negativity

Why would you not expect to be banned? You think you can go to an Elvis board and dwell on his negativty and nothing will be said to you? Go attack Whitney Houston's fuckedupness and watch what her fans say. No fanbase should be expected to put up with unnecessary negativity


Exactly. But this is not a MJ forum, therefore fans can not and should not expect the same kind of respect he gets on a MJ forum here. If fans can't seem to understand its Michael's odd actions that have cause most of the ridicule then it just goes to show how blind they are. And I don't think being a fan stops you from seeing what is staring you in the face.
Up to Dangerous I was quite a hard-core fan of MJ but by the Bad era I knew MJ had gone too far with the plastic surgery, yet you get other fans thinking he never looked better in his life, when to more rational people or fans he had already damaged his looks completely.

Sorry but I don't think MJ is actually as white as he makes himself appear.

I imagine his whole body and face probably has uneven colored patches all over.
He wears heavy makeup to cover up the spots on his body, and the makeup is made for people suffering Vitiligo.

You cannot make yourself look white. Its impossible. You can't have uniform white skin like MJ makes himself appear like in public. MJ's Vitiligo symptoms are covered through excessive makeup

Just look at how light his skin is here. That is far from being a natural skin tone.

Even with possible dipigmentation therapy, his skin will be still be getting blotches all over so makeup is still necessary, and his skin won't be uniformly white.

that's funny because many fans on his forums there criticize him..i have said this over and over to you, stop generalizing a group of people.

Nope. Any fan that criticizes Michael, even in the slightest gets either attacked and bashed by other MJ fanatics, banned, suspended or threatened with banning or suspension. No doubt about it, fans who criticize Michael arent very popular to say the least. I've seen it happen time and time again on MJ messageboards. disbelief

Lawsuit 'will not stop Jackson residency'

Lawsuit 'will not stop Jackson residency'




Michael Jackson's upcoming residency in London will go ahead despite legal threats, according to tour insiders.

Doubts over the legality of his 50-date tour at the capital's O2 arena were raised last week, after the singer was slapped with a $20 million (£14 million) breach of contract lawsuit.

AllGood Entertainment has alleged that a contract they secured with Jackson prevents him from performing for AEG Live, the promoters of his comeback shows, until a previously agreed Jackson 5 reunion concert takes place.

However, sources close to the star have told Metro that they are "not worried at all" about the highly-anticipated gigs falling through.

"Things are beyond belief, absolutely incredible," said one insider.

Jackson is scheduled to perform his first live shows in nearly a decade from July 13. The Jackson 5 reunion concert has been postponed until July 3, 2010.

I don't want to get into the vitiligo thing, but there are very good grounds for doubting his story. You say no black person has ever bleached themselves white before, but I've never heard of any vitiligo sufferer getting gradually whiter like Michael either. I read a link you posted of a supposed example, but the source was a website run by MJ fanatics that was totally devoted to exonerating Michael of every charge ever laid against him. It was clearly an untrustworthy source. I actually think wikipedia is a far more trustworthy source than a website devoted to defending MJ.

And by the way, look what I've just done. You made a point and I responded to it. Your point was COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT since as you yourself said, I have not participated in the vitiligo debates you're mentioning, but nonetheless, I was at least courteous enough to acknowlege your irrelevant point and give some kind of direct response. By contrast you have completely ignored my points about MJ's miming, which were actually pertinent to the subject in hand (MJ fans deviousness in debates). This proves everything I've been saying. I am simply more honest than you. I don't try to dodge points or change the subject half way through, as you just did.


whether you believe it or ( and i don't really care) that story i posted was from aperson who was not an mj fan she just had vitiligo and happened to come across that website and posted her story. besides she had picture evidence of her transformation using makeup. so i don't get what you're arguing about. why am i even talking to you. you are the laughing stock of about 90% of the people on here

You don't realize it, but you've just proved how right I am yet again. You have COMPLETELY avoided the subject under discussion. You asked me to prove how MJ fans are devious. I gave specific examples of them dodging points, and how did you respond? You responded by COMPLETELY CHANGING THE SUBJECT. lol lol Now you and your fellow loon are talking about vitiligo which was not what we were discussing. You don't even realize that you're proving my point. That's how out of touch you are. If you could see yourself clearly you would be embarrassed right now.

what messageboards are you going to? I go to Maximum jackson all the time and people criticize him on there to a good amount and no one is mad or gets banned. Actually a lot of them agree with what the person is criticizing on or gives different viewpoints. Again, please stop generalizing and stop posting tabloids please biggrin .
