MJ'S PRIVATE CONVOS LEAKED?

MJ's personal conversations have been leaked to the internet. Don't know if this is real or made up (can't tell these days), but here they are. These phone conversations allegedly were recorded at the beginning of MJ's Dangerous tour, he's talking to a friend named Glenda. Glenda's husband, Scott, recorded the convo's. Supposedly, it was Glenda's husband who recorded them without their knowledge because allegedly, he was mistrustful of their friendship and thought that something was going on between them. These tapes were allegedly used in the molestation trial to prove that he was interested in a relationship with a woman.




MJ talks about childhood and how he used to throw shoes at Joe's head.


MJ talks about a girl who confessed she's in love with him. He says that he's gonna give it a try but he won't have sex until he's married. He says he really wants a relationship and to know what it's like to be with someone, before he dies. He talks about Tatum, the fact that he gave her a lot of material things and she just played him and the fact that it took him a very long time to get over Diana.
Wow - MJ had a serious crush on Ms. Ross.



Although I've posted these tapes, I did so to show that MJ was a human being. He loved and lost just like most of us. But one thing is definitely clear - he could not trust anyone and these taped conversations proved that.

KATHERINE JACKSON GETS PERMANENT CUSTODY

Michael Jackson's mother was granted permanent custody of the singer's three children Monday, ending one of the court battles that had been brewing since the pop star's death.

Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff approved the agreement reached last week by attorneys for Katherine Jackson and Debbie Rowe, mother of the two older children, in which the children will be raised by their grandmother and Rowe keeps visitation and legal parental rights.
The late pop icon had said in his 2002 will that his mother should care for Prince Michael Jr., 12, and Paris Michael Katherine, 11, and his youngest child, Prince Michael II, 7, known as Blanket, who was carried by a surrogate.

Beckloff made the appointment over a last-minute bid by Jackson's dermatologist to get involved in the case. The judge ruled that Dr. Arnold Klein, who treated Jackson for nearly 25 years, had no legal standing. An attorney for the doctor said his client had concerns about the children's welfare, but did not specify. Rowe met Jackson while working in Klein's office.

Moving through a long list of issues before him at the day's hearing, Beckloff also approved undisclosed monthly allowances for the singer's mother and children. Katherine Jackson's attorneys filed papers last month asking for the payments, saying their client had no source of income other than Social Security, and that her son had provided for her when he was alive.

Beckloff granted Katherine Jackson the full amount she requested for herself, but reduced the sum that attorneys requested for the children, saying some of it appeared unnecessary.

The matter of Jackson's estate, on the other hand, still seemed contentious. Attorneys for Katherine Jackson and the special administrators named in Jackson's will met for 90 minutes during the morning hearing to discuss a settlement, but came back and told the judge they were unable to reach one.

Katherine Jackson, in papers filed last week, accused the temporary administrators -- music executive John McClain and entertainment attorney John Branca -- of keeping her in the dark about the estate's affairs.

Beckloff on Monday extended the temporary powers of the administrators for an additional 60 days.

DEBBIE ROWE WANTS CHILDREN OR MORE MONEY - WHICH ONE?

MJ's mom, Katherine Jackson and his ex-wife, Debbie Rowe have joined to seek a delay in a hearing that could decide who gets custody of MJ's children. A guardianship hearing that was scheduled for Monday has been delayed for a week, an attorney said Friday. Instead, the two sides are trying to broker ($$$$) an out-of-court settlement.

"We are pleased that the child custody hearing has been continued over until July 20th to further our progress and allow us to privately and amicably resolve this most important matter in a dignified manner for the benefit of the children first and all involved," L. Londell McMillan said in a statement to The Associated Press.

Rowe has not indicated in court filings that she intends to seek custody. Well, it sounds like to me that D Rowe is looking for another pay off. What do you think?

If MJ wanted her to take care of his kids - he would have named her in the will. But he specifically and intentionally did not want her to have anything to do with those kids.
