Topic: Neverland Bash A Flop Return to archive

Mother baby Neverland bash a flop


Michael Jackson's Neverland open day has failed to light the fire of American tourists who seemed unwilling to fork out up to five grand a pop to get the chance to stroke llamas and ride on Jacko's fairground rides. Even celebrities were thin on the ground at the weekend event, and only a lone Backstreet Boy turned up alongside ear biter Mike Tyson - himself in the same financial difficulties as Jacko. Celebs such as Liz Taylor and Ben 'n' J.Lo, hyped as attendees, failed to show on the day, and tickets are said to have been sold for as little as £150, nowhere near their original asking price.

The exercise was intended to fight the recent negative press the fallen King of Pop has attracted but has only helped to further damage his reputation with speculation about where the money he made from the tickets would go. He received a further blow last week when it was revealed that the taxes he pays for the Neverland Ranch may be increased following an investigation into the way his land is used. He was receiving a tax break for undeveloped parts of land but this will diminish over the next nine years as he has developed large parts of the ranch. It seems Jacko's glory days are now certainly, in his own words, history.

corgi37 Just why in the world that freak never got jailed, or lynched, is beyond my comprehension. I have said to my wifey that he will top himself within 2-3 years. Good riddance to the bastard.

corgi what odds do you give, at 2/1 i wouldn't take the bet - he'll "officially" die of natural causes (you think he didn't get a tip or two from lisa marie)and for a bona fide "suicide" there must be a note or else all bets are off and monies wagered are lost...

so on that basis 3/1 on the inside ...EMI but his old man is long dead,isn't he?


what about diana ross? - is she still alive? - it's all her fault afterall - isn't it?

corgi37 jacko's dad is still kicking. Wacko says he belted him as a kid and mistreated him sooooo badly, but daddy is still around getting an allowance and sponging off his kid and gets trundled out every time the fuckwit needs support.
