After a parent dies, it can be hard for everyone to get over the fact that they’re no longer around.
For the children of Michael Jackson, life is going to be difficult now that their father is now moonwalking in heaven. After all, being swung off a balcony just won't be the same if it's being done by somebody else. They won't be able to get that feeling of love whilst assuming that imminent death is about to occur.
But hey, the death of a family member isn't all bad. Especially when your dad was a global superstar. Prince Michael, Paris and Prince Michael II can now lead the life of luxury, though they?ll still curse their dad for giving them stupid names. However, would you care when you get ?45,000 pocket money per month? Apparently so – the little tykes want more cash to spend on stuff we can only imagine will be limited edition and00 has a pattern resembling vomit.
During his own lifetime Michael Jackson squandered his own money away on all sorts of rubbish. This comes despite the fact he literally earned billions of pounds with fans buying records, even if they weren't as good as the earlier output. But how do you blow all your cash? We?d forgive him if he'd blew it all on booze and wild nights with hookers. But he just disappointed us all.
What he really should have done is invested in a mirror. Over the years, it looked like he decided to spend his musical royalties on morphing his face into something out of a B-movie horror flick. Towards the end of his lifetime, his nose pretty much looked like one of his children had moulded it out of putty and stuck it back on his melting face. A tragic site for all to see. But a money saver when Halloween came round.
As someone once said, money doesn't buy happiness. Though we need to take that quote in proper context. Going out on a night can cost an arm and a leg, so we won’t call Michael Jackson?s kids spoilt little brats for demanding more money. For all we know they’re smart and have an in-depth knowledge of the housing markets to guarantee a place on the property ladder. Or they're going to be just like their dad and spend strange amounts of money on chairs and lamps made out of denim until they end up horribly in debt. The Daily Star reports:
?A judge has agreed a ?10,000 boost to keep the youngsters in the style they are used to. Lawyers acting for the children appealed to increase the amount to ?55,000 a month, say court papers. They had argued that the current sum paid to Jacko?s mum Katherine, 80, was not enough to make ends meet.?
Urgh, imagine only getting a normal person?s salary of possibly around ?1,500 per month or, shock horror, being on a minimum wage job. To the Jacksons that would seem like physical and mental torture. Where would they put their 1000? TV and pillows stuffed with Dodo feathers? They?d have to fight with tramps in order to survive.
If anyone from Channel Five is reading, would you take us up on our new Jackson TV show that involves taking a member of the Jackson family and putting them in a normal situation? It could be amusing to watch them break down as a failed door to door salesperson.

Wow. So full of hate. He loved those kids. Those kids loved him. Leave them alone.
Why not do something constructive with your time and try to help the people of
Haiti. That’s what Michael would be doing if he were here.
BH says
You have a sad life, why dont you worry about your own father and your own life you sad ba*tard! R.I.P Michael
Marina says
This is ridiculous. MJ’s children need expensive security arrangements, which is obviously hard for you to grasp, and they are almost certainly NOT enjoying as high a standard of living as they did when their father was alive. What Michael Jackson did with his money is none of your business. You will never make anywhere close to the same!
JoeMomma says
Can’t wait for more… come on Google news, pick this up!
Jen says
Will you just die already, go to hell you piece of shit, your such a hateful bastard, trying to turn on MJ’s kids and treat them the same way you treated Michael. You will eat your words, this is GARBAGE, you are so full of SHIT, go suck on your cock, ok, and choke on it, thanks!! Michael is the King he is better than Elvis ever was and the Beatles suck, Michael is King over all of them AND HE IS A BLACK MAN, so too bad for you you racist bastard. LET’S JUST GET YOU DEPORTED TO HAITI, YEAH THAT WOULD BE NICE, AND THROW YOU IN A HOLE WITH ALL THE POOR DEAD CORPSES, OR BURY YOU WITH SOME CONCRET!! yaaa WHO’S GOING TO HELP ME?
michelle says
You have no idea what you are talking about. It really is none of your business what Michael did with his money, or how much the children get. Leave them all alone, they just lost the father. There was nothing wrong with Michaels face either. What are you jealous, because you will never have what Michael did, you will never be as loving a human as he was.. Why don’t you use your time reporting on things that matter, like Haiti. Stop bashing the deceased, show some respect, unless of course you dont have any of that…
RIP MICHAEL
dylan says
WOOW
bitter much
get a life
get of your couch and stop eating so many chips
maybe then you’ll earn more money
doubt that with your writing “talent”
trying to be funny, never looked so sad…
Monica says
Wow Mr.Matthew Laidlow you seriously don’t have a life. So much hate and jealousy for a person you havent even met. Are you upset you will never be able to earn such money? Are u jealous of the millions of fans who still adore Michael?
You frigging idiot. Get a life and leave MJ and his kids alone. Burn in hell you retard. So much vicious garbage. Eat it back you filthy beggar.
RK says
You are a fucking retard. Waste of life.
Natalie says
Mr Laidlow, your scorn of Michael Jackson’s lavish lifestyle and his children’s allowance is pure sour grapes. Apparently you must be making minimum wage or less. MJ worked his butt off since the age of 5 to accumulate his wealth, so it is really none of your business how he chose to spend the money. Don’t forget MJ has donated at least $300 million to charities during his lifetime and also regularly supported 39 charity organizations. BTW, MJ adored his children and they loved him very much. One day, these kids will grow up to tell the world what a great father MJ has been. And Mr Laidlow, you should get yourself a mirror and take a look at the man in the mirror and reflect on what useful contributions you have made to the world, besides trampling on someone far greater than yourself?
Monica says
I said the truth so my comment is removed. Wow. Looks like that hurt u. Get a real job. You suck at the current one.
Beth says
Well said, thank you :)
mari says
Obviously these children need very expensive security measures to keep out as morons who wrote this shocking article.
Dee P says
I think that YOU need to invest in the mirror.. and take a good long look at your hateful self. Only then might you realise just what a lowlife you really are.
lana says
You are a sick, sad, pathetic excuse for a human being to write such a hateful and distasteful article about a person you know based on what you saw and read primarily in the TABLOIDS. Mj like all people had his faults, but that he loved his children dearly is undisputed and as such he did his best to give them the best he could emotionally, materially etc. This was evidenced for instance by Paris’ tribute to her father at his memorial service. May God have mercy on you when your time to be judged comes.
Susanne says
Yeah! Michael blew it on 39 charities around the world. Michael gave well over 300+ million dollars. How much have you given to charities Matt?
Naomi says
wow that’s te biggest load of bullshit I’ve ever read in my life!
R.I.P Michael Jackson their lies can’t hurt you now!
wendy says
crappy crappy article…….why so much hate towards the late MJ ? What did he ever do to the writer of this piece …..everything written here
is nonsense.
Sweet Angel says
I totally agree – the additional allowance will most likely go to security which is a necessary expense for them.
And I am just so sick & tired with this author’s mocking (and other media reporters, too) of MJs cosmetic surgeries. Spent most of his money on that? Do you even know about the $300 million MJ donated to charities? Maybe you know but will not of course write such noble facts. Because you probably believe that will make you ‘uncool’….well, you are wrong!! Decency & fairness will go a long, long way & will always triumph in the end.
megan says
This tabloid piece is as usual full of sh*t. thumbs down !……Don’t
you people have better things to do with your life than churn out such hateful rubbish ? Do something CONSTRUCTIVE for a change !!!
anne says
Matthew laidlow is a LOSER !!! MJ is God’s gift to the world ! Loser -accept it. And I’m sure you’ll delete this comment, the losers that you are !!!
Susanne says
Help STOP people like this from writing the GARBAGE.

BlanketJacksonOnline says
The kids didnt request any money, those greedy a$$ adults did!
Byron says
I highly doubt that the kids asked for money themselves… if it was anybody, it was Joe
Janice says
Leave mj’s kids alone. most of the money goes to security and you people stop hating Michael he was a great and beloved person.
Susie says
This is a most stupid and bullshit article I have read in my life.
Mr. Matthew Laidlow, just read your words we can know that you’re full of jealousy and idiot. What any body did with his face and money is non of your business. Try to do any thing good for people in your society than judging a person who’s awarded by Guinness Record as a most charitable artist in history.
maureen anderson says
That’s right michael, REST IN PEACE, because they [ CAN’T HURT YOU NOW ]! Here’s what I think, all these A – HOLE’S the way they alway’s run michael down, I’M starting to really believe they are JEALOUS OF HIM ! Think about it, all they do is talk about him . That sound’s like JEALOUSY doesn’t it? And THEY HAVE ALOT TO BE JEALOUS OVER! Take your MEDIA SHIT & GO WIPE YOUR MOTHER’S ASS WITH IT, HA,HA,HA,HA,HA,. PUT THAT IN YOUR PIPE & SMOKE IT! WE LOVE YOU MICHAEL,NOW & FOREVER BABY XOXOXOXO
hoohaahee says
Another MJ article = another horde of sheep bleating for their fallen leader.
“BAAA! we love you Michael. Take our lambs (only the male ones though) and “sleep” next to them. We believe any incredible, shite you care to make up.”
“BAAA!”
Moronic fucking sheeple. Use your brains. Defending a goddam paedophile. If MJ was honest as you say..what the fuck was all that about those kids being “biologically” his?
The man was a liar, a fraud and a criminal. His utter arrogance lead him to believe he could talk the most unbelievable shite and get away with it..he was a total insult to the black community that supported him.
Chris Rock, Katt Williams and a hundred other comedians (some of whom supported him previously) have pointed out the many contradictions in MJ’s public statements.
People like these pro – MJ posters have the right to vote and to affect the course of society. How fucking scary is that? It should be rescinded until they can pass a mandatory intelligence test.
I shall now sit back and absorb the mindless “outrage”.
Jacqui says
Please don’t say that The Beatles ‘suck’.
I don’t see you out there, revolutionising the music industry.
Thank you.
JoeMomma says
*feeding more fuel to the fire*
MJ was a talentless hack.
Wow says
I continue to stand amazed and fascinated by the worshiping members of The Church of Michael Jackson. We don’t know what the money is being spent on. It could be the need for security. It could be for the type of tutors, nannies, etc., the children are accustomed to having, although it’s best I keep my negative opinion of classism for another day. It could be that Katherine Jackson likes money more than she wants to admit. It may be this is a covert way for greedy, I’ll-use-my-sons-as-a-get-rich-scheme-rather-than-love-them-as-just-sons-and-don’t-care-that-I-openly-pimp-them-and-my-money-projects-in-public Joe Jackson to ream his son’s estate. Unless we see the documents, we’ll never know.
I am, however, perplexed why people are elevating a dead man to God Status. He was human.
MJFAN says
OH PLEASE !
GO TO BED, MATTHEW LAIDLOW , GO TO BED !!!!
JoeMomma says
You MJ fans suck… if you were real fans you’d keep defending this weirdo… no you just give up… just like you have in life.
Anh says
Let’s make it right for MJ, Vindication now at MichaelJacksonRedemption. com
JoeMomma says
You know, I can’t bring myself to go to that link even for fun. As MJ fans are generally kinda sad and funny. If I go there, I’ll loose the funny part and I’ll genuinely feel bad for MJ fans, similar to third world kids. Actually as I think about it I should start a new foundation.
Save the MJ fans, go to ectmjfans.com
costech says
wow…what a cynical person you are….
leave the man and his chidren alone. Its their money left to them by their father, how does it concer you??
you lead a sad sad life.
gabby says
I agree with wht yu said leave michael alone wtf did he do to you he was so kind and generouse filled with love and all everyone does is shit on him gooo fuck yourself pleaseeee do us that favor!
R.I.p mj.
wendy says
i think they are reall yrich and their grand are taking care of them
wendy says
i really think they are cute
SMILEY649LUVSMJ says
So pathetic. Everyone else in the media and in his life used Michael to get rich. And you’re doing the same. Michael is so Magnificent that lowlife people like you and others. Use his name to make money. Even though I have little respect for his father. He’s the one who helped make him and so did his mother and they should benefit just like everyone else. As for the kids, it’s their fathers money and he would want them to have it. They made him happier than anyone ever did and that’s worth more than any amount of money.
And I’m so proud to be apart of the flock of MJ’ Army of Love!!!!!! People worship someone they’ve never seen aka GOD. It being a free country and all. I can worship anyone I choose. And that’s MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I speak only for myself, not all other MJ fans.
I Promise To Love You, Forever and a Day, Michael!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mjishbabe says
Matthew,
Why u b so inhuman not to understand that Michael is a human with feelings. He’s a man with a big heart who has done much to this world.
Why people never discuss his charity, his music & the humanitarian. Is it because he’s Black that you only show a dark side.
He started his carrier as a 5 year old kid, working hard for his age. He never had a normal life, surrounded by the media mafia & entangled by their myths. Once he do the “Moonwalk”, once he made “Thriller” once he start to broke Elvis’s record, once he bought “Beatles”, they start to call him weird, call he bleached his skin, and what-not.
The moment they saw their own son worshipping this black man, they start killing his carrier. People are that dumb to believe whatever they read on the print.
Noone will ever understand how his heart bleeded by those wrong accusations. Michael never had the peace he searched in vain. Now he’s at peace, free of pain. Now it’s time for you to let him be.
Love u Michael, Love you more than ever sweet angel
Bigred says
SHUT UP ALL OF YOU MJ HATERS. HOW DO YOU KNOW HE WAS A PEDOPHILE? IT WAS NEVER PROVEN IN COURT, BUT I GUESS YOUR DUMB ASS WILL NEVER KNOW DUE TO THE FACT THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS FOR ANYONE TO TRY TO EXTORT FROM YOU! AS FAR AS KATT WILLIAMS AND THE OTHER AFRICAN AMERICAN COMEDIANS WHO MADE COMMENTS CONCERNING MJ THEY NEED TO GET REAL WITH THEIR USED TO BE DRUG DEALING AND DRUG USING ASS’S. AS FAR AS HIS CHILDREN ARE CONCERNED LEAVE THEM BABIES ALONE!!!!!!!!!! YOUR STUPID ASS RETARDED COMMENTS ALSO PLAYED A BIG PART IN MJ’S DEATH WHETHER YOUR DEAD BEAT SLIMY, ALLEY RAT ASS WANTS TO ADMIT IT!! YOU PUNK ARE YOU JEALOUS YOUR BROKE ASS CAN NOT LEAVE YOUR CHILDREN SHIT? OOPS I’M SORRY FORGOT YOU HAVE NO TALENT AND YOUR BITTER AND HATEFUL!!! THE CHILDREN DID NOT ASK TO BE BROUGHT INTO THIS WORLD, THEY WERE BLESSED TO BE BORN INTO GREATNESS!!! DO YOU HAVE CHILDREN? IF SO HOW WOULD YOU FELL CONCERNING SOMEONE WHO IS A MJ FAN AND KNOWING YOUR CHILDREN READ THIS ARTICLE AND TAKE IT OUT ON YOUR KID’S? BE CAREFUL BECAUSE IT AIN’T NO FUN WHEN THE RABBIT GOT THE GUN!!!!!!!!!!! SO BE A REAL MAN AND STOP PICKING ON THE DECEASED AND LITTLE CHILDREN WHO ARE ALREADY HAVING A HARD ENOUGH TIME TRYING TO ADJUST TO A LIFE WITHOUT THEIR DAD!!!! OH AND BY THE WAY I’M AFRICAN AMERICAN AND SO ALL OF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMEDIANS OF TODAY YOUR STUPID ASS’S WOULD NOT BE WHERE YOU ARE TODAY IF MICHEAL JACKSON AND OTHER GREAT AFRICAN AMERICANS BEFORE HIM HAD NOT PAVED THE WAY. SOMETIMES HAVING A GOOD HEART CAN BE A BAD THING!!!!!!!!! TO BAD THAT THE TRUTH CAME OUT AFTER HIS DEATH. THE MAN WHO SUED MICHEAL JACKSON FOR 20 MILLION COMMITTED SUICIDE AFTER MICHEAL’S DEATH, DOES THAT TELL YOUR STUPID ASS SOMETHING AND TO TOP IT OFF THE LITTLE BOY WHO IS NOW AN ADULT DISOWNED HIS PARENTS AFTER THEY RECEIVED THE MONEY. THE YOUNG MAN STATED THAT IN THE PRESS THAT HIS PARENTS CONCOCTED THE SCHEME TO GET MONEY. SO YOU NEED TO LEARN HOW TO RESEARCH SHIT BEFORE YOU WRITE SOME STUPID UNEDUCATED SHIT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!! FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO AGREE WITH THIS MR. LAIDLOW YOUR JUST AS BROKE AND IGNORANT AS HE IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
