Michael Jackson Gets Sued By Disgruntled Sheikh
Michael Jackson's friendships always fail - usually they're soured by an unproved accusation of molestation or something. But at other times Michael Jackson falls out with people because he goes to live with them and then doesn't pay his way. That's the case with Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa of Bahrain, who's suing Michael Jackson for taking an advance on a recording contract and not seeing it through, amongst other things. Apparently Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa paid Michael Jackson a $7 million advance for his participation in a joint recording project that never happened. Some observers are claiming that this lawsuit could spell financial ruin for Michael Jackson. However, given that the alternative is the release of an album of duets by Michael Jackson and a rapping sheikh, that's something we'd be absolutely happy to live with.
