Kanye West Never Said He Was the King of Pop

Kanye West may have made a lot of boasts in his career, but claiming to be the new King of Pop following the death of Michael Jackson is not one of them.

The superstar rapper hit his official Web site to shoot down rumors that he's taking the title from the late Michael Jackson.

"I was just listening to [radio host] Wendy Williams and heard some quote about me saying I'm the new King of Pop," he wrote. "Not only did I not say that, I haven't said anything."

Kanye also blogged that it upsets him that people would think he would make such a statement following Michael's death.

Katherine Jackson’s Request for Michael’s Estate Info Gets Rejected

 

The legal team for Michael Jackson's mother on Tuesday asked a judge for the power to press the administrators of her son's estate for more information ahead of a key hearing next week, but the judge rebuffed the effort.

Lawyers for Katherine Jackson on Tuesday requested the authority to interview attorney John Branca and former music executive John McClain this Friday, as well as demand they produce business contracts and other documents related to the late pop star.

Her lawyers argued in a court filing that the information was "potentially crucial" to a hearing set for Monday that could determine the permanent representatives of Jackson's estate, which is estimated to be worth more than $500 million.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff put off dealing with their request until Monday, effectively quashing it.

Michael Jackson’s Autopsy points finger even more at dr. conrad murray

It was reportedly a chaotic scene inside the bedroom of Michael Jackson on June 25 -- clothes strewn around the stifling hot room, handwritten notes papering the walls.

The King of Pop , for all intents and purposes, was dead -- killed, ABC News has learned, by a lethal cocktail of prescription drugs that included Oxycontin and Demerol.

But according to the Associate Press, investigators believe it was Dr. Conrad Murray who injected the pop icon around midnight with propofol, the power anesthetic authorities believe ultimately killed him.

"This doctor is in serious trouble," criminal defense attorney Roy Black told "Good Morning America" today.

Murray, whose Houston office was raided by local and federal authorities last week, has already been named in court papers as the subject of a manslaughter investigation.

Debbie Rowe doesnt attend michael jackson's funeral!!!

Debbie Rowe, Michael Jackson's ex-wife and mother of his two oldest children ,has decided to not to attend the singer's memorial service Tuesday afternoon.
As recent as Monday, Rowe was confirmed to attend, but at the last minute, changer her mind believing, "her attendance would be an unnecessary distraction to an event that should focus exclusively on Michael's legacy," her lawyer Marta Almli.
The funeral comes at a time when Rowe's pending custody battle is a biding reality for the Jackson family. When asked if Rowe had been in contact with the Jackson family, Mark Schaffel, a former Jackson business associate, claimed she has attempted to get in touch with them, but has been unsuccessful, reports Eurweb.com.

Quincy Throws Michael Under the Bus... "He wanted to be white"

Quincy Jones recently did an interview where he spoke on Michael Jackson and his ever changing appearance! Read below for the folly:

Oh, we talked about it all the time. But he’d come up with, “Man, I promise you I have this disease,” and so forth, and “I have a blister on my lungs,” and all that kind of B.S. It’s hard, because Michael’s a Virgo, man—he’s very set in his ways. You can’t talk him out of it. Chemical peels and all that stuff…”He then continued on talking about the “King of Pop” saying that he wanted to be white.

“It’s ridiculous, man! Chemical peels and all of it. And I don’t understand it. But he obviously didn’t want to be Black.” When asked if that’s what he really thinks Michael’s problem was, he replied, “Well what do you think? You see his kids?” Following that he was then asked if he thought Michael was beautiful before the chemical peels to which he replied, “Man, he was the most gorgeous guy."

This coming from a man who has had multiple relations with Caucasian women... Quincy get a clue or buy one ... you've got enough money!

Last Call... MJ's Final Rehearsal Video!

Here's some footage from MJ's last full dress rehearsal for his upcoming tour which was set to kick off July 8th. He looks healthy and in great shape leading many to still have serious questions concerning his death! From what I hear there will be a memorial service for MJ at the Staples Center on Tuesday at 11 AM with Tuesday with 11,000 tickets distributed to the general public.

Debbie Rowe wants her Kids and her 40 percent!

The mother of Michael's two oldest children Debbie Rowe is taking legal action to gain custody of her children. According to MJ's will his children will receive about 40 percent of the family trust left in his will! Read the details:

“I want my children,” Rowe said during a 90-minute phone conversation Thursday morning with NBCLA’s Chuck Henry. Rowe said she was willing to submit to any testing, including DNA to prove that she is the children’s true biological mother. Rowe also said she would submit to psychological testing. She also said she would seek a restraining order to keep Jackson’s father, Joe Jackson, away from the children.

The agreement does allow for visitation, but Rowe said it’s a very difficult process. She said if she misses a visitation date, it is difficult to reschedule with the Jacksons. “I am stepping up,” Rowe said. “I have to.” Rowe said she was still grieving. She said she decided she had to seek custody after Jackson’s death. “We had an agreement… he didn’t keep his end,” Rowe said, referring to Jackson’s death. “It hasn’t been easy. It’s been painful.” Jackson, who died at age 50, left behind three children: son Michael Joseph Jr., known as Prince Michael, 12; daughter Paris Michael Katherine, 11; and son Prince Michael II, 7. Rowe was the mother of the two oldest children. The youngest was born to a surrogate mother, who has never been identified. Rowe said she was concerned about splitting up the children. She said she did not expect the court to grant custody of the third child, but added that she would be willing to accept custody.

Rowe, who was married to Jackson in 1996 and filed for divorce three years later, surrendered her parental rights. An appeals court later found that was done in error, and Rowe and Jackson entered an out-of-court settlement in 2006. In her testimony eight years ago, Rowe said, “I had the children for him. They wouldn’t be on this planet if it wasn’t for my love for him. I did it for him to become a father, not for me to become a mother. You earn the title ‘parent.” I have done absolutely nothing to earn that title.” Earlier this week, Jackson’s mother was appointed temporary guardian of the children, pending a hearing on Monday. A will signed by Jackson in 2002 and filed with the court Wednesday requests that Katherine Jackson be named guardian of the children, but in the event of her death, he asked that singer Diana Ross be appointed.

The will also specifically leaves Rowe out of any inheritance. “I have intentionally omitted to provide for my former wife, Deborah Jean Rowe Jackson,” the will states. Rowe’s attorney, Eric George, told the Los Angeles Times he will be at the custody hearing Monday to represent her.

So You Want the Kids Now???

During an interview early this morning Debbie Rowe (a.k.a Michael Jackson's ex-wife) stated that she wants custody of her three children and that she is willing to take a DNA test to prove that the children are hers. In addition to this she also stated that she does not want her children to be around Michael's father Joe Jackson, which probably would be a good idea because we all know how children end up when they are raised by Joe. Now I only have one question for Debbie, "You never wanted to raise your children any other time so why do you want them now???" I think we all know what the answer is ($$$).

In other MJ news, footage from his last rehearsal, which was only 36 hours before his death has been released so click on the pic below to watch. The rehearsal took place at the Staples Center in L.A., which will also be where Michael's public memorial will be held on Tuesday July 7th. The location for the families memorial is still unknown but it is between the Staples Center and the Nokia Center, which is smaller.

And the Foolishess Begins...

The woman pictured above is Nona Paris Lola Ankhesenamun (WOW what a name) the estranged wife of the late Michael Jackson, at least that is what she claims. Nona has stated, "that all my husband's properties, monies and assets must be transferred to me immediately" and "my husband's body must be returned to the coroner's body [sic] or the mortuary immediately." She is also saying that all three of Michael's children are hers, but she needs to take a second look at those children because it is obvious that they don't have a drop of black blood running through their veins. As if these claims aren't crazy enough Nona also stated, "Though he (Michael Jackson) died to this earth he lives with my father Khailid Lucifer (Satan the Devil)." WTF!!!

I am waiting for these claims to be denied in 3,2,1.
