Michael Jacksons Auction Update
Michael Jackson sued the auction house that was due to auction off his stuff next month. Jacksons company MJJ Productions claims Juliens Auction House promised to send Jackson an inventory of sale items but that the singer hasn’t given permission to move them all. How did I know this was going to get ugly. The suit claims many of the items are “priceless and irreplaceable” and describes the attempt to sell them as “malicious, fraudulent, extreme, outrageous and without any legal justification whatsoever.” Julien said the lawsuit was a “total surprise to us, because Jackson had been apprised of everything since the day we started. His manager…has approved everything.” Some of the things that are being auctioned are his American Music Award for “Thriller”, a pair of rhinestone-trimmed socks from 1981, basketball signed by Michael Jordan, platinum and gold records, a customized Harley Davidson, a Rolls Royce limousine and some of his own original artwork. Is he hurting that bad that he’s going to get rid of some of his awards? That’s just stupid.
