Michael Jackson’s Kids Honor Dad in Wales

Posted on October 9, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Christina Aguilera rocked the house and Jennifer Hudson no-showed , but the big story of the Michael Forever tribute concert was the appearance by his kids. Michael Jackson’s children Prince, 14, Paris, 13 and Blanket, 9, took the stage briefly in Cardiff, Wales, to introduce a live satellite performance by Beyonce. “We’re very happy to be here on this special night to honour our father,” said Paris, dressed in an exact replica of the jacket MJ wore in his “Thriller” video. Prince’s outfit conjures up images of “Bad,” while young Blanket went for one of his dad’s more recent looks, with the long hair and the signature armband: The legendary singer, perhaps the single most successful artist in modern music, died in 2009 aged 50 while rehearsing for a series of comeback concerts. The Michael Forever tribute concert coincides with the involuntary manslaughter trial of the singer’s doctor, Dr. Conrad Murray , currently underway in L.A. Prince, Paris and Blanket have agreed to boycott coverage of the trial, though Prince has also said he will testify if called by the prosecution in the case. Michael’s brothers Jermaine and Randy boycotted the tribute show, calling it ”ill-timed” and ‘inappropriate” given the criminal proceedings taking place. Janet Jackson was less opposed to the show, but declined to perform because it would be “too painful”. In any case, here’s a video of Michael Jackson’s kids … Paris, Prince and Blanket at Michael Forever Concert

Prince Michael, Paris and Blanket to Attend MJ Tribute Concert

Posted on August 14, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Michael Jackson’s kids are planning on attending the upcoming MJ Tribute Concert in person. This in spite of objections from two of their uncles. Prince, Paris and Blanket have all decided that they want to fly to Wales for the event, regardless of what Jermaine and Randy Jackson think. An Jackson family rep tells TMZ: “Paris, Blanket and Prince have been asked to attend the MJ Tribute in Wales and they have decided to go.” The rep adds that the kids are “extremely excited and they’re hoping they will have the opportunity to contribute in some way by making a speech.” “Nothing has been set in stone, but they really hope they can.” Jermaine and Randy are fighting their attendance, as well as the concert itself, which they consider “inappropriate,” given that the event is due to take place in October during the involuntary manslaughter trial of Dr. Conrad Murray . We can see that side of it, but at the same time, Michael’s kids – who are said to be so happy these days – should be allowed to honor his memory. [Photo: Fame Pictures]

Bert and Ernie: Just Friends!

Posted on August 12, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Is Big Bird a male or a female? That issue is still unresolved. But Sesame Street has finally responded to a different long-running rumor regarding two veteran players today and revealed: Bert and Ernie are just friends. In response to an online petition that urged the show’s creators to marry the supposed couple, producers wrote the following message on Facebook this afternoon: “Bert and Ernie are best friends. They were created to teach preschoolers that people can be good friends with those who are very different from themselves. Even though they are identified as male characters and possess many human traits and characteristics… they remain puppets, and do not have a sexual orientation.” Okay, but why does Bert have one long eyebrow and Ernie possesses none at all? And… seriously, they’re straight? Are you buying this, readers?

Children of Michael Jackson: Happy!

Posted on August 12, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Michael Jackson must be smiling from above. Two years after his death, his once-veiled children Prince, 14, Paris, 13, and Blanket, 9, are facing the world and adjusting to their new life with flying colors. “They are really happy kids now,” a source says . Paris, Blanket, Prince and some other person we don’t know. Monday, they made a public appearance with their grandmother, Katherine Jackson, and aunt, Latoya Jackson, at a ceremony to donate some of MJ’s artwork. They were also spotted at Six Flags Magic Mountain last week with their cousins, Jermajesty and Jaafar, plus Prince Michael Jackson’s girlfriend Niki (sp?). As summer winds down, the Jacksons – like any kids – will focus on school. “Prince and Paris are going back to [private school] this year. They love the social aspect of it,” says the source of the long home-schooled kids. Blanket, on the other hand, will stay home to receive his education, at least for now: “He’s still very, very shy. He’s still home-schooled.” [Photo: Fame Pictures]

Source: Dianna Agron Dumped Alex Pettyfer Over Racy Photos

Posted on February 21, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

How does a couple fend engagement rumors one week and announce their split the next? Such is the question fans have about Dianna Agron and Alex Pettyfer . But TMZ now claims to have the answer: a source tells that website the Glee actress was steamed over a racy Tyler Shields photo shoot involving Pettyfer, Lydia Hearst and Leven Rambin. The only problem with this break-up basis? While the pictures were released a couple weeks ago, Pettyfer posed for them months before he even started dating Agron. Still, they are pretty darn hot. Might he have kept news of their existence from Agron, fueling her anger once they actually hit the Internet? We have no idea. But one thing is certain: Hearst and Rambin are awesome!

MJ’s Kids on Conrad Murray: Best Doctor Ever?

Posted on February 21, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Last fall, we reported that Michael Jackson’s children may be asked to testify on behalf of Dr. Conrad Murray, as the embattled physician’s lawyers seek to establish that the late, great King of Pop had longstanding drug addictions. While that says little about Murray’s actual care, Jackson’s kids apparently thought highly of him in that regard too, because their famous father did. The children refused to believe that their dad died of a heart attack in June 2009, since MJ raved that Dr. Conrad Murray was the best doctor on Earth. For what it’s worth, Michael and the kids loved Murray. Jackson’s former nanny, Grace Rwaramba , has described his addictions in detail, and spoke with LAPD investigators about how Dr. Murray became a “regular” around the house when the singer lived in Vegas, visiting at least twice a week. Grace said Michael would constantly praise Murray in front of the kids, and that’s why after he died, the kids would say , “There’s no way daddy could have died of a heart attack because Dr. Murray is the best doctor in the whole world.” Grace also said Michael first met Murray through a member of MJ’s security team. As she explains it, Jackson felt he could trust Murray in large part because the security guy claimed he had some sort of mysterious leverage over the doctor. Grace offered no further explanation about the mysterious leverage, but like everything else related to Michael Jackson, truth is often stranger than fiction. On an unrelated, but equally peculiar note, Grace says on a family trip to Florida, the kids called 911 when they discovered MJ “passed out” in their hotel. It’s unclear when the incident took place or what caused it.

We Better Not EVER Hear Someone Say Prince, Paris And Blanket Are Broke

Posted on February 17, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s no secret that the Jackson family doesn’t practice the most effective financial habits. But with what TMZ is reporting Michael’s estate brought in since his death, his kids better be taken care of forever! The Michael Jackson estate has made more than $310 million since MJ died back in 2009 … this according to legal documents obtained by TMZ. TMZ has obtained the first accounting that MJ executors filed … showing exactly how much money Michael owed when he passed away on June 25, 2009 … and how much the estate has made since — and the numbers are astounding. According to the documents, MJ had more than $400 million in various debts when he died … but the estate has already made more than $310 million since. Documents show excecutors have already spent roughly $159 mil paying back various debts, income taxes and other expenses such as providing “uninterrupted support for Mrs. [Katherine] Jackson and Michael Jackson’s children as Michael intended.” The estate has also paid for Katherine to make “substantial improvements” to the family’s famous Havenhurst estate in Encino, CA. Executors have also shelled out cash to “pay last illness and funeral and memorial service expenses.” In addition to the $400 million in debt — MJ’s estate had $40 million in liabilities to concert promoter AEG stemming from the “This Is It” tour … which MJ was rehearsing for when he died. The documents show the estate received more than 65 creditor’s claims — with some of the debt accruing interest at “extremely high” rates. The MJ executors admit the estate still faces several lawsuits in multiple countries. Man, listen. We’re only going to say this one more time: we better not EVER hear ANYONE say Michael’s kids are broke.

Did Michael Jackson Subject Blanket to Unnecessary Anesthesia?

Posted on January 13, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

A fatal dose of the anesthetic Propofol led to the demise of Michael Jackson, and Dr. Conrad Murray will be tried for involuntary manslaughter as a result. Part of Murray’s defense may be Jackson pressuring, even begging him for drugs . While this story is separate, it may speak to MJ’s power of persuasion. According to a TMZ report , Michael subjected one of his kids – Blanket – to the same kind of risky, unorthodox medical treatment that later killed him. In 2008, Michael reportedly cajoled a Las Vegas dentist into performing a procedure on Blanket in which he was put under anesthesia for two hours in a dental office. An office that did not have the necessary permit for anesthesia. The Nevada Board of Dental Examiners kept records of MJ’s interactions with Dr. Mark Tadrissi, who initially refused to work on Blanket due to the lack of permit. According to the Board’s investigator, MJ didn’t want to hear about permits and told the doctor, “Have an anesthesiologist do whatever type of sedation required.” Tadrissi capitulated and performed the two-hour procedure on Blanket, who was just six at the time. An anesthesiologist had Blanket sedated the entire time. Here’s where it gets even weirder. The Board learned of Tadrissi’s actions after Michael died and initiated disciplinary action against Tadrissi for allowing Blanket to be anesthetized in his office. The Board also went after Dr. Tadrissi for allowing Jackson to receive – you guessed it – Propofol in his office, without the proper permit for that drug either. Dr. Tadrissi was sanctioned in 2010. In a draft of the report, the Board based sanctions on his treatment of Blanket and Michael. However, in the final version of the report Blanket was absent. There is no mention of the boy or his treatment. A source connected with the investigation says pressure was put on the Board to omit Blanket from the report. From who, it’s very much unclear. All that is clear is that Michael Jackson got what he wanted when it came to risky medical procedures, and may have put his youngest at risk.
