[disappointing news]

Disappointing news!

I'm so sorry that you have been given this misinformation. None of this information is true. There is no album being released in November, 2007;and, there is no title associated yet with an album.Information this "insider" has given you is a hoax.What is customary before an album is released, regardless of the artist, is for several singles to drop first. Right now, there is noscheduled date for a release because Mr. Jackson is continuing to finish his music.Thank you.

from the rolling stone website thanks queen

As you’re reading this, Black Eyed Pea and producer to the stars Will.i.am is locked away in a New York City recording studio working with Michael Jackson on the Gloved One’s highly anticipated comeback album. Last week, we reported that Jackson is in town plotting his return, and now as Will.i.am’s solo album Songs About Girls is about to hit record stores, Will tells us, “We’re taking it day by day, we’ve finished some songs. I like what I’m doing, I’m really happy with it, but it’s not my project to talk about. I could be talking about song titles what they sound like and be excited about it, but those songs I made may not make his record and then I look like an idiot.” Fair enough. So what was it like stepping into the studio with a true legend? “That was the hardest thing on the planet Earth that I ever had to endure,” he said. “I even said, ‘You know what, Mike? I know how to work with Justin. I know how to work with Fergie. I know how to work with John Legend. I know how to work with thee people, but it probably took four or five days [for me to figure it out with you].’ He’s like, ‘Why? What do you mean,’” Will recalls, doing a disturbingly spot-on imitation of Jackson’s falsetto whisper. “’Well everything you do I like.’”“Because we had that conversation, I could navigate the session and not just be like, ‘Ooooh, damn, it’s Michael, oh my God,’” Will remembers. “You can’t let that affect you in the studio when you’re working with newcoming artists,” he adds of working with established greats. “Newcoming artists can have a great idea but because you just worked with Michael Jackson you’re going to think their idea is not superior. You can’t do that. You have to be able to tame a lion and then forget all about it when you’re chillin’ with cats.”

i think will.i.am is cool! haha!

[news article]

The Michael Jackson Phenomenon (Toronto Sun)

And now, a few words about Michael Jackson. Oh no, you say, not again. You say you already know more about Michael Jackson than you ever wanted to know. You say the only thing you don't know about Michael Jackson is why he's the biggest phenomenon in the history of show business. Hence, a few words about Michael Jackson -- and who and what he is. But before I tell you what he is, let me tell you what he isn' t. Who is Michael Jackson? And why are all these people writing all those things about him? Michael Jackson is not a media star. Michael Jackson was not created by the media. The media, frankly, are sick to death of writing about him. In much the same way as many of you are sick to death of reading about him. And my guess is that Michael Jackson is as sick to death of reading about Michael Jackson as you are. Michael Jackson is news. He's news because he rose to superstardom on talent -- his own. It wasn't the media who sold umpteen zillion Thriller albums - - it was Michael Jackson. You, the audience, made Michael Jackson a star. As for the media, well, we're still scrambling, just trying to keep up with you while we cover our tracks. Who is Michael Jackson? And why are all these people saying all those things about him? Ah yes-- the Michael Jackson jokes. Michael Jackson recently issued a press release in which he stated, flatly and unequivocally, that (a) he is not gay, (b) he has never taken hormones to maintain his high voice, (c) he has never had cosmetic surgery on his eyes. (His decision several years earlier to have cosmetic surgery to narrow his nose was not exactly a closely guarded secret.) The fact that he felt compelled to go on record at this time, however, seems more indicative of a man who is weary of swatting media flies than of a man who has something to hide. I suspect that he didn't much mind the jokes at the beginning -- he knows he has a light voice and, like many male singers of his generation, a high octave range -- but that he grew irritated when jokes persisted, unrefuted, and were consequently misinterpreted as fact. The word most commonly over-used to appraise his appeal, by everyone from the man on the street to New York university psychologists is "androgynous." Some showbiz analysts have stated their belief that Michael Jackson sends out "non-threatening" sexual vibrations and consequently appeals to a wider audience than the average entertainer. Ask young girls if they find his appeal androgynous; the polite ones will try hard not to laugh in your face. Both young girls and not-so-young girls tell me that Michael Jackson sends sexual sparks flying the moment he walks on stage, but -- and this is a big but -- both groups seem to regard him as a romantic sex symbol, which they clearly regard as a definite improvement over garden-variety macho. Who is Michael Jackson? And what is the secret of his appeal? It's not much of a secret. First and foremost, it's his music. Beyond that, of course, it's his peculiar personality, with which he imbues everything he touches, personally and professionally. Part of his appeal is a child/man image that seems to arouse maternal instincts in older female fans. But "mothering" him, to put it delicately, is the last thing on the minds of younger girls I've talked to. Mixed with that, however, is an element of maturity and sophistication that is markedly lacking in the images of run-of-the-mill rock stars. Michael Jackson may do a photo session for the cover of Rolling Stone, but he keeps his clothes on. Michael Jackson, unlike current pop pretender-to-the-throne Prince, keeps his armpits to himself. Rock stars, traditionally, manufacture their images to appeal to the rebel soul in teenagers -- those adults-in-transition who unconsciously choose music idols they assume their parents will disapprove of.

[RECENT MJ INTERVIEW!!!]

holy mother of fuck! its a recent interview on michael jackson in his studio with will.i.am in ireland! cool shit! he looks not bad. he seems so shy and kind. sigh. except the face though. i cant get past that. eventhough i love the guy.

[delay]

Hunh? Why didn't I know about this already? It looks like MJ is recording tracks with will.i.am and several other producers for an album that was originally slated for release in late 2007, but that may now be delayed until early 2008. I'm very curious to see how this turns out. As much as I'm mostly baffled by Mr. Jackson's antics, it's hard to deny the incredible impact he's had on popular music. I'm eager to hear what he comes up with next.

[michael comeback]

shit last i heard was that michael jackson is doing a comeback album and is due before the end of this year but i just read that it could be next year or early 2009?! what the freaking hell?! so when is it? sigh. well at least the part about the vogue magazine photoshoot is true. and i think he looks quite good if i do say so myself.

Pop superstar Michael Jackson is in reunion talks with filmmaker John Landis to direct his comeback video. The 48-year-old famously worked with Landis on the famous promos for his hits “Thriller” and “Black Or White.”
And Jackson, who was acquitted of child molestation charges last year, is hoping Landis' magic touch will make his return from the wilderness a success.
Landis says, "I talked to him last month. He was in Bahrain or some bizarre place. It was a business thing we had to talk about. Michael is a genius. He's obviously an eccentric, but he really has a great talent."

[mj to make comeback]

Rumors of tours, new CDs, and reality shows --- all involving Michael Jackson - abound. What is the truth?
It’s a good bet that no one except Jackson himself knows the specifics of what projects he fancies, what timetables he will set for upcoming musical or theatrical releases. Jackson insiders said that floating “trial balloons” about various projects is a method Jackson often employs to test the waters of public acceptance. Could be.
All that is known right now is that a host of musicians – from will I am of the Black Eyed Peas to pianist extraordinaire John Legend -- have stated they have worked with Jackson on music they expect him to soon release. But do these statements hold any clues to what is to come? Probably not -- A host of artists also reported various experiences working with Jackson on a single to benefit Katrina survivors – and that has yet to materialize.
It’s also known that Jackson family members have seemingly gone out of their way in the past few months – almost since Jackson emerged from his self-imposed exile in Bahrain – to claim knowledge of his musical plans and his consideration of a Jackson family reunion show. Are clues contained within those statements? Again, probably not. Almost as soon as many of those statements are made, Jackson’s publicist denies them. Other statements hang in the air, their own trial balloons.
What is clear is that Jackson’s fan base seems stronger than ever. Consider the turn out of fans in Japan – many from the western world – who paid 1721 GBP ($3400 US) to spend 30 seconds with him. Turn your attention to the dozens of Jackson fan boards that set off a hurricane of postings whenever a new rumor circulates. Read the accounts by musical heavyweights who aren’t Jackson collaborators – Chuck D. of Public Enemy, Amerie – who speak reverently of the King of Pop and excitedly about his next musical project.
Jackson is Rocky up against a formidable component, the Little Drummer Boy who’s lost his way, the shamed Prince who holds his head high despite public humiliation. In a way, the expectations for Jackson’s success have never been higher. Little wonder Jackson is seemingly taking his time releasing his new music.
Volumes have been written about Jackson’s musical accomplishments, which most note are second to none or at least very few. Just as the magicians whom he so admires, Jackson has musically pulled off a host of musical and cinematic magic tricks to the surprise and delight of his audiences.
But like most magicians, Jackson had assistance. His most-heralded past musical accomplishments also involved a host of heavy-weight collaborators – Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie spring immediately to mind.
Many are concerned that this time out, Jackson seems to be alone. Yes, there are others on the metaphorical stage, but they are magicians in their own rights, with their own unique acts. Some fear that the result will be a mishmash of sounds – devoid of Jackson’s unique signature. That would be a shame. If there’s one thing that Jackson delivered – time and time again – is his own clear musical sound.
But while rumors abound, it’s important to remember that Jackson has faced such challenges before. Harkening back to his childhood, Jackson took stands against his own father and brothers who tried to impose certain styles upon him. His opinion prevailed and their success soared.
The bottom line is that the truth is likely not the rumors and trial balloons that float about. The truth is that Jackson has had a remarkable 40-plus year career with nary a musical misstep, because he runs his own show. Fans may best be advised to hold onto their patience a bit longer, and see what the magician pulls out of his creative hat. My guess—it’ll be his most amazing feat ever.

[MJ comeback]

Michael Jackson is plotting a very serious return to the music industry, the Chicago Sun-Times reports. “This is something Michael is carefully planning. I think the album is going to be amazing,” a source told the paper. “From what I’ve heard, it will be as big as Thriller — and yet will take his music in a new direction to appeal to new, younger fans — but will still have those Michael touches his traditional fans love.” The smooth-talking source who speaks suspiciously like a music publicist went on to claim that the new sure-to-be huge album may feature appearances by Janet Jackson as well as some of Michael’s brothers. “Can you imagine what a sensation it would be if Michael and Janet toured together?” the source teased. “That is something that’s being discussed.”
Meanwhile, the New York Post is reporting that Jackson is in the city shooting a cover spread for Italian Vogue. The reclusive pop star is apparently tucked away at a Midtown hotel with his entourage and sat for three hours while stylists groomed his mane for the alleged shoot. Oh, and Jackson has also reportedly finally found his dream home in Ireland. Reports claim that Jackson forked over €20million on the Irish estate that he rented for three months last year. Banking on a major financial windfall coming his way soon, perhaps? So far Jackson’s long-in-gestation major comeback has primarily featured hand-shaking appearances. Last year, MTV News reported that Jackson had expressed interest in working with 50 Cent and Kanye West on new material.

[special shoes]

Discover the secret behind the 45 degree lean in the Smooth Criminal video and in the live performance.

Michael Jackson and two of his costume designers obtained a US patent (US5255452) in 1993 on "Methods and Means for Creating Anti Gravity Illusion". The invention outlines how a special pair of shoes attaches to a stage to allow leaning forward beyond the centre of gravity of the wearer of the shoes. A case study of this patent is presented here.

Michael Jackson and two of his costume designers obtained a US patent (US5255452) in 1993 on "Methods and Means for Creating Anti Gravity Illusion". The invention outlines how a special pair of shoes attaches to a stage to allow leaning forward beyond the centre of gravity of the wearer of the shoes. A case study of this patent is presented here.

Background and Prior Art Interesting stage designs, lighting, fog generators, laser light shows, and large video screens have been used by music entertainers and dancers to enhance the appeal of their live and recorded performances.

In the past Michael Jackson had incorporated dance steps in his recorded video performances, wherein he and other dancers would lean forward beyond their center of gravity, thereby creating an impressive visual effect. In the video this effect was accomplished by the use of cables connecting a harness around the dancer's waist with hooks on a stage, thereby allowing the dancer to lean forward at the required degree.

However, since this requires stagehands to connect and then disconnect the cables, it has not been possible to use this system in live performances. Moreover, the cables obviously restricted arm and body movements.

Description of the Invention

The present invention overcomes the above noted deficiencies of the previously employed cable system by providing specialized footwear and
a moveable hitch or post to which the specialized footwear can be detachably engaged to, allowing the footwear wearer to lean forward on the stage, with his or her center of gravity well beyond the front of the shoes, thereby creating the desired visual effect. The hitch or post protrude upwardly through the stage platform at a predetermined time.

THANKS!

[full biography]

Michael Jackson was unquestionably the biggest pop star of the '80s, and certainly one of the most popular recording artists of all time. In his prime, Jackson was an unstoppable juggernaut, possessed of all the tools to dominate the charts seemingly at will: an instantly identifiable voice, eye-popping dance moves, stunning musical versatility, and loads of sheer star power. His 1982 blockbuster Thriller became the biggest-selling album of all time (probably his best-known accomplishment), and he was the first black artist to find stardom on MTV, breaking down innumerable boundaries both for his race and for music video as an art form. Yet as Jackson's career began, very gradually, to descend from the dizzying heights of his peak years, most of the media's attention focused on his increasingly bizarre eccentricities; he was often depicted as an arrested man-child, completely sheltered from adult reality by a life spent in show business. The snickering turned to scandal in 1993, when Jackson was accused of molesting a 13-year-old boy; although he categorically denied the charges, his out-of-court settlement failed to restore his tarnished image. He never quite escaped the stigma of those allegations, and while he continued to sell records at superstar-like levels, he didn't release them with enough frequency (or, many critics thought, inspiration) to once again become better known for his music than his private life. Whether as a pop icon or a tabloid caricature, Jackson always remained bigger than life.
Michael Joseph Jackson was born August 29, 1958, in Gary, IN. The fifth son of steelworker Joe Jackson, Michael displayed a talent for music and dance from an extremely young age. His childhood was strictly regimented; from the start, he was to an extent sheltered from the outside world by his mother's Jehovah's Witness faith, and his father was by all accounts an often ill-tempered disciplinarian. Joe began to organize a family musical group around his three eldest sons in 1962, and Michael joined them the following year, quickly establishing himself as a dynamic stage performer. His dead-on mastery of James Brown's dance moves and soulful, mature-beyond-his-years vocals made him a natural focal point, especially given his incredibly young age. Dubbed the Jackson 5, the group signed to Motown in 1968 and issued their debut single in October 1969, when Michael was just 11 years old. "I Want You Back," "ABC," "The Love You Save," and "I'll Be There" all hit number one in 1970, making the Jackson 5 the first group in pop history to have their first four singles top the charts. Motown began priming Michael for a solo career in 1971, and his first single, "Got to Be There," was issued toward the end of the year; it hit the Top Five, as did the follow-up, a cover of Bobby Day's "Rockin' Robin." Later in 1972, Jackson had his first number one solo single, "Ben," the title song from a children's thriller about a young boy who befriends Ben, the highly intelligent leader of a gang of homicidal rats. Given the subject matter, the song was surprisingly sincere and sentimental, and even earned an Oscar nomination. However, the momentum of Jackson's solo career (much like that of the Jackson 5) soon stalled. He released his fourth and final album on Motown in 1975, and the following year, he and his brothers (save Jermaine) signed to Epic and became the Jacksons.
In 1977, Jackson landed a starring role alongside Diana Ross in the all-black film musical The Wiz, a retelling of The Wizard of Oz; here he met producer/composer Quincy Jones for the first time. Encouraged by the success of the Jacksons' self-produced, mostly self-written 1978 album Destiny, Jackson elected to resume his solo career when his management contract with his father expired shortly thereafter. With Jones producing, Jackson recorded his first solo album as an adult, Off the Wall. An immaculately crafted set of funky disco-pop, smooth soul, and lush, sentimental pop ballads, Off the Wall made Jackson a star all over again. It produced four Top Ten singles, including the number one hits "Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough" and "Rock With You," and went platinum (it went on to sell over seven million copies); even so, Jackson remained loyal to his brothers and stayed with the group.
No group could have contained Jackson's rapidly rising star for long; however, there was still no sign (if there ever could be) that his next album would become the biggest in history. Released in 1982, the Quincy Jones-produced Thriller refined the strengths of Off the Wall; the dance and rock tracks were more driving, the pop tunes and ballads softer and more soulful, and all of it was recognizably Michael. Jackson brought in Paul McCartney for a duet, guitarist Eddie Van Halen for a jaw-dropping solo, and Vincent Price for a creepy recitation. It was no surprise that Thriller was a hit; what was a surprise was its staying power. Jackson's duet with McCartney, "The Girl Is Mine," was a natural single choice, and it peaked at number two; then "Billie Jean" and the Van Halen track "Beat It" both hit number one, for seven and three weeks respectively. Those latter two songs, as well as the future Top Five title track, had one important feature in common: Jackson supported them with elaborately conceived video clips that revolutionized the way music videos were made. Jackson treated them as song-length movies with structured narratives: "Billie Jean" set the song's tale of a paternity suit in a nightmarish dream world where Jackson was a solitary, sometimes invisible presence; the anti-gang-violence "Beat It" became an homage to West Side Story; and the ten-minute-plus clip for "Thriller" (routinely selected as the best video of all time) featured Jackson leading a dance troupe of rotting zombies, with loads of horror-film makeup and effects. Having never really accepted black artists in the past, MTV played the clips to death, garnering massive publicity for Jackson and droves of viewers for the fledgling cable network. Jackson sealed his own phenomenon by debuting his signature "moonwalk" dance step on May 16, 1983, on Motown's televised 25th anniversary special; though he didn't invent the moonwalk (as he himself was quick to point out), it became as much of a Jackson signature as his vocal hiccups or single white-sequined glove.
Showing no signs of slowing down, Thriller just kept spinning off singles, including "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'," the airy ballad "Human Nature," and "P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)"; in all, seven of its nine tracks wound up in the Top Ten, obliterating conventional ideas of how many singles could be released from an album before it ran its course. Thriller stayed on the charts for over two years, spent 37 nonconsecutive weeks at number one, and became the best-selling album of all time; it went on to sell 25 million copies in the U.S. alone, and around another 20 million overseas. Naturally, Jackson won a slew of awards, including a record eight Grammys in one night, and snagged the largest endorsement deal ever when he became a spokesman for Pepsi (he would later be burned in an accident while filming a commercial). At the end of 1983, Jackson was again on top of the singles charts, this time as part of a second duet with McCartney, "Say Say Say." In 1984, Jackson rejoined his brothers one last time for the album Victory, whose supporting tour was one of the biggest (and priciest) of the year. The following year, he and Lionel Richie co-wrote the anthemic "We Are the World" for the all-star famine-relief effort USA for Africa; it became one of the fastest-selling singles ever.
Even at this early stage, wild rumors about Jackson's private life were swirling. His shyness and reluctance to grant interviews (ironically, due in part to his concerns about being misrepresented) only encouraged more speculation. Some pointed to his soft-spoken, still girlish voice as evidence that he'd undergone hormone treatments to preserve the high, flexible range of his youth; stories were told about Jackson sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber to slow the aging process, and purchasing the skeleton of John Merrick, the Elephant Man (Jackson did view the bones in the London Hospital, but did not buy them). Jackson bought a large ranch in California which he dubbed Neverland, and filled it with amusement park rides and animals (including the notorious pet chimpanzee Bubbles), which only fueled the public's perception of him as a somewhat bizarre eccentric obsessed with recapturing his childhood. He also underwent cosmetic surgery several times, which led to accusations from the black community that his gradually lightening skin tone was the result of an intentional effort to become whiter; a few years later, Jackson revealed that he had a disorder called vitiligo, in which pigment disappears from the skin, leaving large white blotches and making direct sunlight dangerous. One of the rumors that was definitely true was that Jackson owned the rights to the Beatles' catalog; in 1985, he acquired ATV Publishing, the firm that controlled all the Lennon-McCartney copyrights (among others), which wound up costing him his friendship with McCartney.
During his long layoff between records, Jackson indulged his interest in film and video by working with George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola on the 3-D short film Captain Eo. The special-effects extravaganza was shown at the enormous widescreen IMAX theaters in Disney's amusement parks for 12 years, beginning in 1986. Finally, Jackson re-entered the studio with Quincy Jones to begin the near-impossible task of crafting a follow-up to Thriller. Bad was released to enormous public anticipation in 1987, and was accompanied by equally enormous publicity. It debuted at number one, and the first single, "I Just Can't Stop Loving You," with vocal accompaniment by Siedah Garrett, also shot up the charts to number one. Like Thriller, Bad continued to spin off singles for well over a year after its release, and became the first album ever to produce five number one hits; the others were "Bad," "The Way You Make Me Feel," "Man in the Mirror," and "Dirty Diana." Jackson supported the album with a lengthy world tour that featured a typically spectacular, elaborate stage show; it became the highest-grossing tour of all time. Although Jackson's success was still staggering, there were faint undercurrents of disappointment, partly because of the unparalleled phenomenon of Thriller (Bad "only" sold eight million copies), and partly because the album itself didn't seem quite as exuberant or uniformly consistent when compared to its predecessors.
Jackson took another long hiatus between albums, giving the media little to focus on besides his numerous eccentricities; by this time, the British tabloids delighted in calling him "Wacko Jacko," a name he detested. When Jackson returned in with a new album in late 1991, he'd come up with a different moniker: "the King of Pop." Dangerous found Jackson ending his collaboration with Quincy Jones in an effort to update his sound; accordingly, many of the tracks were helmed by the groundbreaking new jack swing producer Teddy Riley. As expected, the album debuted at number one, and its lead single, "Black or White," shot to the top as well. Jackson courted controversy with the song's video, however; after the song itself ended, there was a long dance sequence in which Jackson shouted, grabbed his crotch, and smashed car windows in a bizarre display that seemed at odds with the song's harmonious message. With the video given a high-profile, prime-time network premiere, Jackson was criticized for the inappropriate violence and the message it might send to his younger fans. However, Jackson would not be the biggest story in popular music for long. In early 1992, Nirvana's Nevermind symbolically knocked Dangerous out of the number one spot; after the alternative rock revolution, the pop charts would never be quite the same. Jackson scored several more hits off the album, including the Top Tens "Remember the Time" and "In the Closet," but the aggressive "Jam" and the saccharine "Heal the World" both performed disappointingly.
Jackson had long preferred the company of children over other adults, and befriended quite a few, inviting them to stay at his Neverland Ranch and enjoy the massive playground he'd assembled over the years. In 1993, Jackson was accused of molesting a 13-year-old boy who'd become a frequent guest at Neverland. Predictably, there was a tabloid feeding frenzy, and a mainstream media circus as well. In the court of public opinion, the charges seemed all too plausible: Jackson was near-universally perceived as a weirdo, and here was a handy explanation for his heretofore asexual persona and distaste for adult companions. Additionally, Jackson entered rehab for a short time, seeking treatment for an addiction to pain killers. Investigations were unsuccessful in turning up any other boys who echoed the allegations, and Jackson countersued his accusers for attempting extortion; however, in spite of the fact that no criminal charges were ever filed against Jackson, he settled the boy's family's suit out of court in early 1995, paying an estimated 18 to 20 million dollars. Many felt the settlement was tantamount to an admission of guilt, and when Jackson married Lisa Marie Presley in 1994, the move was perceived as a desperate ploy to rehabilitate his image; the marriage broke up just 19 months later, seemingly lending credence to the charge.
In 1995, Jackson attempted to put the focus back on his music by preparing HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book 1, a two-CD set featuring one disc of new material and one of his greatest hits. The album debuted at number one, but the format backfired on Jackson: his fans already owned the hits, and the new album simply wasn't strong enough to offset the added cost of the extra disc for many more casual listeners. There were some encouraging signs -- the lead single "Scream," a duet with sister Janet, debuted at number five, setting a new American chart record that was broken when the follow-up, "You Are Not Alone," became the first single ever to enter the Billboard Hot 100 at number one. But on the whole, HIStory was something of a disappointment. Additionally, Jackson collapsed during rehearsals for an awards show later that year, and had to be rushed to the hospital; what was more, the Eagles' Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) was threatening to catch Thriller's American sales record (it eventually did, and the two continued to run neck and neck). There were signs that Jackson was grasping at his self-proclaimed King of Pop status; the cover of HIStory depicted an enormous statue of Jackson, and he performed at the 1996 BRIT Awards dressed as a Messiah, with children and a rabbi surrounding him worshipfully (Pulp lead singer Jarvis Cocker stormed the stage to protest Jackson's hubris during the middle of the song). The 1997 remix album Blood on the Dance Floor failed to even go platinum, although remix albums historically don't perform nearly as well as new material.
In late 1996, Jackson remarried, to nurse Debbie Rowe; over the next two years, the couple had two children, son Prince Michael Jackson, Jr. and daughter Paris Michael Katherine Jackson. However, Jackson and Rowe divorced in late 1999. In 2001, Jackson was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and later held a massive concert at Madison Square Garden celebrating the 30th anniversary of his first solo record. Among many other celebrity guests, the show featured the first on-stage reunion of the Jacksons since the Victory tour. In the wake of September 11, Jackson put together an all-star charity benefit single, "What More Can I Give." His new album, Invincible, was released late in the year, marking the first time he'd issued a collection of entirely new material since Dangerous; it found him working heavily with urban soul production wizard Rodney Jerkins. Invincible debuted at number one and quickly went double platinum; however, its initial singles, "You Rock My World" and "Butterflies," had rather disappointing showings on the charts, with the latter not even reaching the Top Ten. To compound matters, the expensive "What More Can I Give" single and video were canceled by Sony when executive producer Marc Schaffel was revealed to work in pornography. Jackson's camp tried to distance the singer from Schaffel, and the various corporations that were attached to it (McDonalds, Sony) claimed they had minimal involvement if any with the song. Sony and Jackson began a press war in the summer of 2002, starting with Jackson's claims that the label asked for 200 million dollars to pay them back for marketing costs. Although they had spent 55 million on his disappointing comeback, Sony released a statement saying that no such request had ever been made. Jackson stewed for a few weeks before launching a press attack on Sony Music chairman Tommy Mottola, calling him "devilish" and making claims that he used racist language and held down black artists. Many Sony artists, including Mariah Carey and Ricky Martin, defended Mottola, but Jackson and his family maintained that racism ended their professional relationship.
From that point, Jackson's career took an extreme turn toward the bizarre, starting with MTV's annual Video Awards. When Britney Spears presented him with a birthday cake, an offhand remark about being the artist of the millennium inspired a rambling Jackson to accept a meaningless trophy (which everyone presenting on-stage received) as an actual Artist of the Millennium award. Next came accusations from a promotional company over his promises of a tour and several appearances that he then canceled. Jackson arrived in court late, gave a drowsy testimony, and inspired gasps when he removed a surgical mask to reveal his nose had caved in from a botched cosmetic surgery. Only days later, German fans were horrified when Jackson came to the balcony of his hotel suite and briefly dangled his 11-month old baby Prince Michael II (nicknamed "Blanket" by Jackson) over the edge with one arm. Although he apologized the next day, claiming he had gotten caught up in the moment, this only did more to cement the King of Pop's public image as an out-of-control millionaire. 2003 turned out to not be Jackson's year as in November his Neverland Ranch was extensively searched by police, whereby he was subsequently arrested on charges of child molestation. That same month the single disc retrospective Number Ones hit the stands with one new song, "One More Chance". A year later - nearly to the day - the four CD and one DVD box set The Ultimate Collection appeared with numerous rarities including the original demo for "We Are the World". In January 2005 his child molestation trial began and by May he was acquitted on all counts. Jackson soon relocated to the Persian Gulf island of Bahrain and began working on new music including a charity single that would benefit victims of Hurricane Katrina. The single never appeared but the two disc The Essential Michael Jackson did and in 2006 the strange box set Visionary was released featuring 20 DualDiscs replicating 20 big hit singles with their videos included on the DVD side. In early 2007 it was announced that a comeback album was planned for late in the year. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide

COMEBACK TRAIL: A new Michael Jackson song has been played by an American radio station.
A new song by troubled pop star Michael Jackson has been leaked on a US radio station, it has been reported.
Pittsburgh's 96.1 KISS FM is believed to have debuted the track.
Mamacita is an upbeat love song with lyrics in English and Spanish and appears to feature the singer's trademark vocals.
However, Jackson's publicist Raymone Bain, has denied the track belongs to his client, saying: "Michael Jackson has not released any new material. This appears to be a smooth criminal pulling a fast one!
"However, if someone has leaked material illegally, my client's legal team will pursue the matter."
The Thriller singer has not released any new material since One More Chance in 2003, but he has been spending a lot of time in the studio working on new material in recent months.
In July, rapper-and-producer Will.i.am revealed he had been working with Jackson on his comeback album, his first new studio LP for six years.
The Black Eyed Peas star said: "Man, he still sings like a bird. He could go anywhere. We have a real opportunity to do something here. It's either going to be really big or nobody's going to care. Ain't no middle ground on this one."
Will.i.am recently revealed he was shocked to be asked to work with the former 'King of Pop'.
He said: "Michael called up and I thought someone was joking. I hear, 'Hello, its Michael,' and I was like, 'Yeah right, stop playing!'
"Then he said, 'I want to congratulate you on all your success. Do you mind if I call you in a couple of days at 4pm?' Then he started ringing me every day at 4pm. So I started working on music for him on the tour bus."

OK THIS IS SOMETHING GOOD. GOOD GOOD!

Jackson family stands up for Michael
They dismiss reports of the singer’s alleged dependency on drugs

Michael Jackson's claims that the pop star does not have a dependency on pain killers and alcohol.

LOS ANGELES - Michael Jackson’s mother and four of his brothers have formed a united front in dismissing reports of his alleged dependency on pain killers and alcohol.
An open letter to the media, signed by Katherine Jackson and sons Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Jackie, responds to what the family views as “troubling and heinous” rumors about Michael.
An attempted drug intervention and takeover of Michael’s business affairs are among the rumors denied by the family in the letter, which also takes aim at quoted “sources” believed to be making false claims for profit.
A particular target of the letter is People magazine, which has published a story on Michael and his children in their Sept. 17 issue.
A rep for People magazine provided the following statement to “Access Hollywood”:
“We stand by our story. Throughout the process we gave Mr. Jackson’s rep, Raymone Bain, the opportunity to respond and we reported her comments.”
Below is the text of the letter, dated Sept. 7 and issued by Jackson’s rep, Raymone K. Bain:
“People magazine has followed other publications in reporting untrue and inaccurate information about Michael Jackson and the Jackson family. Of these widely reported rumors, what has become the most troubling and heinous, is that my son, and our brother, Michael Jackson, is dependent on painkillers and alcohol.
“People, and other news organizations, have quoted ‘sources’ indicating that our family has attempted a drug intervention, and engaged in an effort to take over his business affairs, because of this alleged drug and alcohol usage.
“We categorically deny ever planning, participating in, or having knowledge of any kind of intervention, whatsoever. We strongly believe that these ‘sources’ and others, no matter who they are, are making these defamatory, inaccurate, and untrue claims for monetary reasons.
“Michael Jackson, and the Jackson family, has endured years of false accusations and misrepresentations.
“It is time for these unfair and hurtful rumors, for profit, to end.
“Thank you.”

Michael Jackson plagarized hit tune, Belgian court rules
4 days ago
BRUSSELS (AFP) — A Brussels court has ruled that Michael Jackson's 1995 hit "You are not alone" is largely similar to a song penned by Belgian twins two years previously, local media reported Tuesday.
All the authorial rights of the Jackson number one hit, written by Robert Kelly, alias US singer-songwriter R. Kelly, therefore are switched to the brothers according to the court ruling handed down last week.
The twin composers have fought for 12 years to gain recognition for their work, however the judgment is only applicable in Belgium and getting hold of royalties may be no simple task.
"You are not alone" was released in August 1995, the second single off the multi-platinum Jackson album 'HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I'.
It became the first-ever single to debut at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.
On their website the Belgian composer-brothers said that the Belgian rights society SABAM had confirmed that "the most important and largest part" of the Jackson hit is "identical" to the Van Passels' work.

BLEAH THATS ALL I CAN SAY.

Jackson song guilty of plagiarism

Michael Jackson has lost the rights to his song 'You Are Not Alone' - because a European court has ruled the R. Kelly-penned 1995 track is "largely similar" to one written by Belgian twins two years before.A Brussels court ruled on Tuesday that rights to Jackson's hit single will now be transferred over to brothers Eddy and Danny Van Passel - but the order will only be applied in Belgium, reports gossip website TheCelebrityTruth.com.In a court document investigating the plagiarism case, it states: "The largest part of the melody is identical. There is a strong similarity."
However, the twin composers - who have been fighting to gain recognition for their work for the last 12 years - are likely to find it difficult getting their hands on the song royalties, because of the length of time which has passed since the single's release.'You Are Not Alone' was released in August 1995 and became the first ever single to debut at number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.
