Michael Jackson News


The massive amounts of news about Michael Jackson has finally begun to slow over the past few days, but the salacious stuff is just now starting to emerge. This is the stuff that would have never seen the light of day while Michael was alive and able to sue.

Tatum O'Neal says that she and Michael dated briefly. According to an interview she gave The Mirror, "He was a huge star but it seemed he barely even dated and knew little about life. He once came to my house and asked to come upstairs because he'd never been in a girl's bedroom before. He sat on the bed and we kissed very briefly, but it was all very awkward."

According to Tatum, this encounter took place in 1982.

The Sun meanwhile has interviewed Ian Halperin who has written a biography about Michael Jackson. In the biography, I an claims that Michael Jackson was gay and that he found two of Michael's former gay lovers who agreed to be interviewed for the book. Ian defends his accusations by saying, "Virtually everybody has told me. Even those who are his most ardent defenders, people who maintain he is innocent of the molestation charges, insist that he is homosexually inclined."

One of the men interviewed in the book states the first time he and Michael were going to have sex, Michael said, "The King of Pop’s going to lick your lollipop." Umm, yeah, that might be too much information.

In some good news to report, the custody hearing of Michael's children has been delayed a week. Apparently Debbie Rowe and Katherine Jackson are in talks that would see Debbie drop her claims in return for the promise that Joe Jackson never gets near the kids and has nothing to do with raising them. I don't care how much money Debbie gets for dropping her claim, because if that is really one of her conditions to dropping her claim, then that shows she actually does care about the kids to some extent.

Meanwhile, LaToya Jackson is going to make it her life's work to find the people who murdered Michael. She also thinks there will be another will that turns up because she can't believe Diana Ross was named as a back-up guardian for the kids if Katherine had died.

"We believe there is another will which will emerge. He updated his will almost every five years, so we expect one to come from 2007. Michael always told us that he wanted his eldest sister, Rebbie Jackson, to look after the children. Rebbie had a nice family, which Michael loved. He told many family members that she was his choice."

I believe that about Rebbie being his second choice, Rebbie aka Maureen has a wonderful family away from the Hollywood madness.

Also I find it hard to believe MJJ would give DR custody when he had a private falling out with the Diva, which led him to write the song Dirty Diana.

ItsJustMe said...

From what I know, I am all for Rebbie raising the kids.

As for Debbie, I admire her for doing that. Joe Jackson is the devil.

If I were drinking soda, or coffee, or water, this would have made me spew it all over my computer monitor: "The King of Pop’s going to lick your lollipop."

Oh, Ian -- hah!

KellyLynn said...

I wouldn't be so tired of hearing about MJ if places like Entertainment Tonight wouldn't waste so much airtime rehashing nonsense. (Yes, I watch ET. When it's late and I'm too lazy to hulu, there isn't much else on.)
You just summed up the massive amounts of news into about 2 minutes of actual reading. Thanks.

Paisley said...

I'd prefer it if Rebbie started raising the kids right now. Katherine is 79. I doubt she'll be around, let alone in good health, when Blanket is a teenager.

merrick said...

AnonMom, totally agree with you .. It comes as no surprise to me that Mr. IUC himself would put such a blantly stupid line in his book about MJ. But his peeps believe it, so it must be true. I laughed outloud when I got to that part of the story!

RocketQueen said...

What?! Dirty Diana is about Diana Ross? I really can't see that as the song narrated a sexual relationship, unless he just used her name for it.

I had never even heard of Rebbie before Michael died.

I think Michael was probably gay, too, and I personally don't think he was guilty of molesting children. In appropriate behaviour for the majority of people, yes, but not molestation. That being said, I believe Lisa Marie's claim that they had an intense sexual relationship for a while, too, so who knows.

Merrick - I'm extremely surprised he didn't throw the word "orgasm" in there -- you know how fond he is of that word! ROFL

merrick said...

I am sure he used it two or three times in the next paragraphy just in case the masses did get the drift the first time! The man is a hack, pure and simple.

He should take some lessons from our dear friend Enty on how to really win friends and influence people, notjust brainwash them with ridiculous, unsubstantied garbage.

MontanaMarriott said...

MJJ had a crush on Diana and she rebuffed him so he wrote Dirty Diana with lyrics implicating all the gossip about her Motown days and all the sex she had and men she used to become a star

sassenach said...

Ian is a hack with no credibility.

stiffkittens said...

Has anyone read this blog:
http://crazyliesandnights.blogspot.com/

Crazy is a word for it...I would think it was Perez if it wasn't so articulate!

RocketQueen said...

Wow. Thanks MMarriott - that has always been one of my favourites by him (the other being Smooth Criminal), and now I think I like it even more :)

ItsJustMe said...

Stiffkittens -- it must be John Mayer writing that. Lol.

BigMama said...

Now I have that darned Mika song stuck in my head. *sigh* I used to like that song but the images now attached to it are going to give me nighmares....

K said...

I think Rebbie and Bubbles should have the kids.

jax said...

ya stiff, you missed the whole article about me on that shit blog.

Judi said...

Doubt Rebbie has what it takes to protect the kids from the press/paps. DRoss knows what this is like and could do a better job.
LaToya needs to shut the eff up. Every SINGLE time she opens her mouth, idiocy comes out. MJ WROTE DOWN what he wanted and, with some slight adjustments for Rowe, that's what the court will go with.

mygeorgie said...

StiffKitten/Jax: I thought it was an interesting read actually. Nothing wrong with asking questions.

califblondy said...

Too bad O.J. got locked up. I could just see him riding shotgun for LaToya while they're out cruising the streets looking for the real killers.

Sue Ellen Mishkey said...

I agree with mygeorgie

I just finished reading it too. I want to know what happens next! I hate when blogs just leave you hanging like that.

Treesap-Covered Lady, the Humanist said...

As long as Joe Jackson is kept far away from those kids I'll be happy.

copperkitten said...

OH no, how will I ever get that out of my head? "The king of pop is going to lick your lollipop' ??

Jen said...

I read the blog, too. I have wondered how an attorney would have so much time on his/her hands from 9-2 pst...

Sue Ellen Mishkey said...

I just went to the first post of this blog and read a bit. It's like the person who started this blog is not the person writing it now. Sincerely.

.robert said...

Sue Ellen,

I thought the writing style had changed too. The newest stuff is poorly written and very different from the voice of the earliest, but it could be drunk posting responsible.

Sue Ellen Mishkey said...

Seems as though the posting style/voice changed around Feb/07. I can't wait to see how this all turns out.

lauren said...

"MJJ had a crush on Diana and she rebuffed him so he wrote Dirty Diana with lyrics implicating all the gossip about her Motown days and all the sex she had and men she used to become a star."

Well, that does reflect very well on him, doesn't it?

bionic bunny! said...

imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

guess i'll have to check said site out, see what they're saying about our jax!

and has anybody stopped to think that maybe, just maybe, enty's "voice" has changed because he's become more comfortable w/ his online personality?

i know i've certainly changed since i've been online.
but, hey. whatever floats our own boats, right? :)

ardleighstreet said...

Good for Debbie Rowe. I wouldn't want Papa Joe raising a feral stray cat. The man is a disease.

I'd like to see Rebbie raise the kids. They might have a shot at normalcy.

link88 said...

I didn't see anything written about Jax on there.

link88 said...

I didn't see anything written about Jax on there.

link88 said...

And I looked twice! ;)

shakey said...

Things change when you've been doing something for quite some time. Back in 2006, he seemed a much more wide-eyed innocent. Meh. He entertains me, and I am quite happy with that.

As for that lollipop remark - was this before or after 50 Cent's hit came out? As for Debbie Rowe - I'm guessing she probably had a ton of money thrown at her to stay far away from the kids with a good mix of threats added for good measure.

LaToya is an idiot. She will milk this until everyone tells her to go away.

Parsley Mostly said...

dirty diana is about a groupie. and sheryl crow. who was a groupie.

Jungle007 said...

wow stiffkittens... Thanks for posting that, it is very interesting.

I'd rather stick by ent as his blog has always been entertaining for me to read (it's the only one I read on a regular basis) and i never take anything I read too seriously, especially gossip, so i don't really hold it against him if he posts something that turns out to be false...

And not to offend Ent or anyone else, but i've always had my doubts that ent is really everything he says he is. But who cares if he is a real lawyer or not? he isn't giving any legal advice, it's a gossip site for fucks sakes.... I always thought that it was supposed to be funny and ironic.. some big shot lawyer who is drunk half the day living in his parent's basement?? Yeah, It could happen, but come ON, this is not the real world. This is the internet. No one has to reveal their true identities and that is in part why it is so great!!

I'm gonna leave the MJ stuff alone. The discussions I get into raise my blood pressure. But enty, whoever you are, we love you and I will continue to read what you write, even if it total bullshit and even if you get your pictures from a dollar store.

Selock said...

Him being "homosexually inclined" doesn't strike me as shocking or salacious whatsoever.

None of this is that disturbing...besides the quote that is just vaguely embarrassing.

stiffkittens said...

Jungle007 - I'm co-signing your comment haha

I think the whole blog is ridiculous & someone obviously needs a productive hobby.
Some people that visit/comment here must go to that blog to bitch about CDAN (given what the posts say on that site). And spying on this blog? Jesus, take up knitting or something you spiteful hags!

jlb said...

That "anti ent" site is kinda funny - someone has a lot of free fucking time.

I'd like to know if "anna" is REALLY female. I mean, "she" could be playing everyone and be, say, a male lawyer. Can "she" prove who "she" is? "She" seems to expect her readers to blindly accept what "she" typed simply because "she" says it to be true. We don't even know if "her" contacts are real and connected enough to prove what "she's" trying to prove.

Yeah. See how easy that's turned around. Hey "anna" why isn't there an anti Dlisted posting? Can you prove MK is in fact a gay man? Can you prove he lives in NYC? Can you prove he really loves those cholita eyebrows?

See how easy that happens.

mooshki said...

Gee, Enty, thanks so much for that lollipop visual. I'm gonna have nightmares tonight. ;)

Link88, "she" deleted the post about Jax because it was pointed out to "her" that it was libelous. Pot, meet kettle.

I do think it's fun to speculate about Enty's identity in a non-mean-spirited fashion, but I can promise you, he is a male entertainment lawyer. The way he blogs so much is by working harder and longer than most of us would ever want to. Which is a lot of the reason I'm so defensive about him - if he ever stops feeling appreciated, he'll have no reason to write the blog anymore, and how much would that suck?!

link88 said...

Mooshki,

You are kidding, right? You really think he is a lawyer? Even if you don't have a problem with the fictional premise for the blog, I didn't think anyone was gullible enough to believe that this writer was really a working entertainment lawyer. For one, it is obvious that if he was he would be commiting career suicide and jeopardizing his license. But to even go there is laughable.

Another obvious way he isn't a working lawyer is that NO man, a professional man at that, would sit all day long and blog about trivial gossip and reality shows and who looks good wearing what and writing catty things about Jennifer Aniston and celebrities most men either think are hot or don't even think about. Yeah, right! (Of course, I love Michael K., and he is no doubt what he says he is - a gay man with a sense of humor who spends all day posting about gossip he is interested in for his gossip blog. I suppose he could be a woman, but who cares? He is not claiming to be a connected professional spreading lies as truth (because a lot of you believe his blinds, admit it) and asking people for money so he can keep doing this "on his free time.". No comparison.)

If you honestly don't care that this blogger lied and took money from his dedicated readers on the premise that he needed the money to keep the blog going...then you are extremely gullible.

OR...you could be the "Mooshki" that has countless times jumped in to explain, clear up misunderstandings, and defend Ent whenever someone says something the blog writer doesn't like.

It's a little obvious/disengenuis to threaten that beloved Ent might stop the blog if he feels "unappreciated."
This blog is entertaining enough, and I read it out of habit, but the only dedication to it that I see is that there are a handful of familiar names that comment all day, every day, on every post. They feel a sense of community, and that is fine, but it is laughable for some of them to smugly talk down to someone to "get a life" or get a hobby, and how can we believe who so and so is? Don't they see the irony?!

I am not out to get this site or its author. It did bug me that they took money from readers based on a threat to not go on with pictures (not matter how lovingly given - doesn't it bug you if the author lied to you? I guess not - it's your money!) I find the other site even more interesting, because that person claims to be an actual celebrity/insider who became aware of this site from one of the blinds Ent wrote about her/him, and continues to write about people "Anna" knows. I guess it could be bullshit as well - but out of the two, which seems more plausible? This writer having such incredible insight and knowledge (yet no money for photos) or someone mad at what he wrote about them?

Why am I wasting my time. Forget it, who cares, really? The rabid fans or friends of the author will defend and attack, and anyone who isn't one of them doesn't care enough to chime in or read the comments anyway. I am interested to see how the other site pans out.

ItsJustMe said...

Here’s the thing about Ent for all the naysayers. If you are an avid follower of this blog, you’ll realize he hasn’t made his identity a secret. And in my opinion, his identity is absolutely delightful and the thought of which always brings a huge smile to my face.

If you follow Ent on FB, you’ll see he’s a night owl. I imagine he gets a bunch of stuff done late at night (unless you’re really watching porn, Ent!)

I still stand by my claim that "Anna" is really John Mayer. ;)

mygeorgie said...

I think you can be skeptical & not be a naysayer. Just because someone asks questions, or doesn't fully agree with everything Ent says, or drools pathetically on every word, doesn't mean they are "the enemy". I love the sight, donated funds, but I also don't believe Ent is a fat lawyer living in his parent's basement & I don't care. NO ONE has real insider info. Not Enty, not Lainey, not my local news station. It's all borrowed shit, spun a different way.

I think the same people that slam other bloggers & sites, yet aggressively defend Ent, need to check their own biases.

Still reading & enjoying & will make up my own mind, thank you.


Anonmom: That actually makes sense that the other blogger might be John Mayer! Now I'm REALLY curious.

merrick said...

AnonMom .. please do tell, why do you think that? Other then the fact that he loves the internet .. Blind Gossip also thinks that he is on there posting ..

link88 said...

mygeorgie -
I agree and respect your opinion.

About the John Mayer thing: As interesting as that would be, the only thing is if you read the blog, the writer uses the Canadian/British spelling for words such as "favourite," "realise", etc. and words such as "rubbish," "bullcookies," etc. The way the person "speaks" is not American.

I thought it was interesting as well when I clicked on the link back to this site where "Anna" is questioning his marital history/age, etc (One of the early posts in April '09), the page comes up and says it was saved on such and such a date "GMT", and it had the name "tilda swinton" on there. Check it out: It's where she says even his own readers question his info. and goes to the blind page with all of the comments. I am going to check it again.

mygeorgie said...

link88: You little P.I.!! That is very interesting. I'm not so investigatively inclined, but I look forward to "Anna's" story & the wise people here putting all the pieces together.

This Anna/Ent debaucle is definatly better than those generic NY DAILY BI's :)

ItsJustMe said...

Just a hunch, knowing that John Mayer is a huge online junkie, and if anyone has tons of times to write out those posts, it would be him! LOL …. But, good thoughts on the Tilda Swinton guess and the footwork.

“Anna” makes all kinds of claims that she’s going to the authorties, What authorities? The internet police?

Sue Ellen Mishkey said...

I am super intrigued about this ent/anna mystery so last night I read a lot of the archives to see what I could find, and so far what I have been able to discern is that at some point ent went from a single dude in his 30's who lived in a loft in downtown LA, to a dude in his 40's who has a couple ex-wives and lives with his parents. I know someone said yesterday that people's internet voices can change, but this is two different stories. I have only read the archives and comments up to the begining of '07, so I am not 100% sure if he addresses the change or not. Either way, it's pretty fishy.

stiffkittens said...

Sue Ellen Mishkey - It's very possible that he was in his late 30's at the start, and is now in his early 40's.

Link88 = 'anna' = John Mayer (hahaha!)/Tilda Swindon? y/y?

I'm glad the link is being used as another 'BI' of sorts, and not causing all-out war. I didn't mean for it to be insulting to Enty in any way, i just thought it was interesting (and something he should see if he hadn't already).

link88 - There are regular posters on here that have met Enty. Unless you are one of them, i wouldn't rule anything out.
Also, many intelligent/high profile people enjoy smut/gossip (and some even write about it). It's nothing to be ashamed of.


I believe MK is who he says he is - just look at his myspace.

stiffkittens said...

Sue Ellen Mishkey - Forgot to add:
I remember when he wrote about having to move back into his parents basement. He has talked about the changes in his life (though maybe he hasn't felt comfortable addressing all of them).
That which he writes tends to fall close to the subject matter of his posts, so it makes sense that we don't get the whole picture - only fragments here and there.

It's interesting, but who really cares who he is? His blog makes for great pastime, and i for one would not feel any differently about him/his blog if i had evidence of him being anything other than who he claims to be.

Sue Ellen Mishkey said...

Stiffkittens:

Oh, I don't care who Ent is really. I'm not emotionally or personally attached to Ent, so if it is proven he is not who he claims to be I won't be heartbroken in the least. This is more of a juicy mystery to me that I would like solved, one way or the other.

It's the summer and I have a lot of free time on my hands. What can I say?

Sue Ellen Mishkey said...

I forgot to add that I also think MK is who he says he is because the feel of the blog and the writer behind it has never changed. I've been reading Dlisted for a long ass time and not once have I ever doubted what he says. Also there is a small video clip of him in his apt talking about gay blogging. Either he posted the link himself or one of his many readers did in the comment section. Either way, I watched it and was convinced.

Also, MK is more believable than Ent because he is just some hilariously bitchy gay living in NYC. He doesn't make blinds, just posts ones from other blogs, nor does he talk like he is coming from somewhere in the know. I dunno he just feels more authentic.

Sorry if this is hard to read, my mind is working faster than my fingers can type.

link88 said...

stiffkittens,

It's funny that the only way I found out about the "Anna" site was from your post asking if people had read it!

I have never questioned Michael K's identity. I was responding to someone upthread saying how do we know who he is, like the issue is the same for all blog writers.

"People have met Ent" - Are you one of them? Is someone that you know personally telling you that he or she met him? Are you saying he is really a lawyer, or just that they met the person who writes the blog? Because someone like Jax saying she met him doesn't prove squat - she could just be a friend of the blog writer helping out. It seems a little silly to use that as proof!

I read this blog pretty regularly - how did you, Jax and others find out about the "crazyliesandnights.blogspot.com site? Seriously, please tell me how, because I am curious.

Sue Ellen Mishkey said...

Link: During my sleuthing last night I googled "who is ent lawyer crazy days and nights" and that crazy lies and nights blog came up. I think it is at the bottom of the 1st or 2nd page. Also, as I am still reading the archives I found where Ent claims to be, " You have to realize that I am a 65 year old, fat, balding, glasses wearing guy and so it seemed odd that Ms. Reid was so entranced my persona that she found me again." This is from Monday, Feb 12 07. I also stumbled upon why Ent hates Eva Mendes. Apparently he said hello to her and she snubbed him. I believe that Ent said she snubbed him like he was a homeless man.

On a side note I agree wholeheartedly about the people who claimed to have met him meaning squat. Anyone can say they met anyone. I met Gordon Ramsey. There. Also, I noted when these people said they met Ent, that was it. Just a claim.

link88 said...

Sue Ellen Mishkey (I love your name, by the way! Best sitcom ever!):

Sorry, didn't mean to ignore your response. I see where if you google you would come across the site, but I am curious how people that wouldn't be googling the name (because they would have no reason to) would find out about it. I was curious how Stiffkittens and Jax knew about it (since Jax read something about herself on it previously). I know the blog writer emailed Ent, so that is how "he" is aware of it. Maybe Ent told Jax about it, seeing how they met each other and all. (snicker, eye roll, take your pick!).

I remember reading that when Ent said he was older and balding, and I think that they explained it away as an obvious joke where you were stupid if you didn't get it that he was joking about himself. After that he started the fat persona.

Sue Ellen Mishkey said...

Link:

I doubt that Ent told them about the site as "anna" said she emailed him at the end of June. Plus Mooshki and Jax both said that the things written about Jax were taken down as they were libelous.(is that a word?) So, to me, that would seem as though people were aware about the blog before "anna" sent the email to ent.

Moving on.

I am STILL reading the archives and from what I can gather this Hez person was all up on Ent's shit, then suddenly, not so much. So what was the catalyst? I think it was the Police concert that Ent gave Hez tickets to. After that Hez's omgiloveuenttt! comments slowed down a lot, as did her posting. Also, she never commented on the concert so far as I am able to discern.

This is quite the riddle.

p.s. I hope "anna's" blog is really writted by John Mayer because I have a celeb crush on him(don't judge!) and that would be tops.
p.p.s In the archived comments a lot of people have called Ent out on inconsistancies such as saying he partied at the Virgin Mega store in London in the 90's, but as someone pointed out, that store didn't open to 2004. WHO KNOWS!

Link(again):

On the Sue Ellen Miskey note, I agree that Seinfeld is the funniest sitcom ever. I watch it all the time in re-runs, no matter the episode.
