  • Michael Jackson Will Forged

    Randy Jackson is saying that Michael Jackson’s will is a fake. Rumors persist that the King of Pop did not sign his will which was dated July 7, 2002 as the late singer was apparently across the country in New York and the document alludes to Los Angeles. Randy says that he can prove that Michael was in New York on that day, protesting against Sony exec Tommy Mottola as he was prejudice against African American artists. The lawyer for the Jackson estate, Howard Weitzman claims that witnesses to the will were present when Michael signed it but he would not verify if it was in LA.

  • Private Michael Jackson Memorial

    Before the public viewing and star-studded memorial this past Tuesday, family and friends of Michael Jackson gathered at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Los Angeles on Monday night and early Tuesday morning. Over a thousand guests were said to have attended the private memorial. The evening service was held in a large auditorium at Forest Lawn and featured a closed casket. It has already been two weeks since his passing but I still can’t get a firm grasp that a great music icon has been taken from us. Rest in peace Michael. You will be greatly missed. May the music of the King of Pop live on.

  • Judge rules against Jacko’s mother in battle for control over superstar’s estate


    A Los Angeles judge has denied Katherine Jackson’s petition for control over her late son’s estate – ruling in favour of Jackson’s long-time lawyer and a family friend.

    At the Los Angeles Superior Court today, Judge Mitchell Beckloff ruled that lawyer John Branca and music executive John McClain should be the conservators of Jackson’s estate.

    The superstar’s mother, who did not appear at the hearing, had filed an application to be the conservator of the pop legend’s estate before a will emerged, which was drafted in 2002, stating that Branca and McClain would be in control of the estate in the event of Jackson’s death.

    Lawyers for Katherine Jackson wanted Judge Beckloff to delay the decision, as they said the family were concerned about Branca’s relationship with the singer before he died.

    One of Katherine Jackson’s lawyers, John Schreiber, argued that he was suspicious that Branca had rejoined Jackson just weeks before the singer’s death, and claimed that Branca is unfit to look after the estate – which is estimated to be worth around $500m – because he suffers from a disability.

    But Judge Beckloff refused Schrieber’s claims and ruled in favour of Jackson’s will.

    A bond has been set at $1m to protect the estate in the event the administrators waste or misspend assets.

  • Sting’s Daughter Suffers Head Injury

    Sting’s 18-year old daughter, musician Coco Summer, is in the hospital recovering from a fractured skull following a nasty spill. The aspiring singer was dining at a restaurant in Los Angeles when she complained about not feeling very well. When she stood up, Coco fell and hit her head hard. Sting, who happened to be in the US, rushed to be at her bedside while her mother Trudie Styler flew in from the UK. It’s being said that it’s a “serious injury and Coco is under constant surveillance” but Coco is said to be doing well and in good spirits. I wish her a speedy recovery.
