Michael Jackson Facing Breach Of Contract Lawsuit For $20…


Michael Jackson is being sued for $20 million by AllGood Entertainment, who claim the 'Thriller' singer has breached a contract his manager signed with them.

Despite reports to the contrary, it has emerged that the Jackson 5 reunion that was supposed to take place in 2010 and have Michael on stage as well will not take place after all. Organizers AllGood Entertainment have just filed a lawsuit against the King of Pop saying the one-night special concert will not take place because of him, and they’re asking for a minimum of $20 million in damages, TMZ informs.

Michael Jackson himself seemed to confirm the reunion a short while ago, as the paparazzi caught up with him as he was being escorted to his car and asked him whether fans would see him as part of Jackson 5 again. At about the same time, AllGood Entertainment was also speaking in optimistic terms of the outcome of what is already a longstanding conflict of interests, saying that it had the utmost faith that Michael would eventually fulfill his contractual obligations, to which he had agreed when his manager signed on the dotted line on his behalf.

Now, TMZ says, since Jackson has failed to respond to the organizers’ ultimatum, they are taking matters to court. “AllGood Entertainment just filed a Federal lawsuit, claiming Jackson reneged on his promise to perform with his brothers and sister Janet before performing any other concerts on his own. After allegedly agreeing to the deal with AllGood – the company that was producing the family concert – Jackson inked a separate deal to perform a series of concerts in London. According to the suit, Jackson and his manager, Frank Dileo, ‘secretly teamed up with AEG [the London producer]’ knowing full well that Jackson committed to doing the family concert first.” TMZ says of the lawsuit, after seeing court papers.

The problem now is that Michael is refusing to do the reunion show, in which the organizers have already invested a lot of money, or at least so they claim. Because of this, AllGood wants to receive $20 million in damages, but it is also asking to have the series of concerts about to begin at London’s O2 Arena postponed until a sentence in the case is reached. Michael has yet to respond to any of the allegations of the suit.

“AllGood claims its deal with Jacko prohibited him from signing any other contracts until 3 months after he performed the family concert. Jackson has claimed he never signed the deal with AllGood – his manager did. AllGood says the manager speaks for Jackson. AllGood is suing for $20 million – minimum. The company is also asking the judge to derail the London concerts, scheduled to kick off next month.” TMZ further explains.

Britney Spears topless photos leaked


That Britney Spears would pose topless is hardly surprsing. The star is famous for being very explicit and public about her sexuality and sexual appeal. I think however, it raises a question about gender, equality and and empowerment. Can a woman expose her breasts while pretending to be a stripper and still be an empowered woman? This is the issue Spears raises.

Here is the information according to The New York Post:

Topless pictures of the pop tart emerged yesterday, showing her flashing her boobs while shooting the music video for her 2007 hit "Gimme More."

A brunette Spears pole-dances in a strip-club setting during the video, while a blond Britney enjoys the show from the bar.

At points in the four-minute spot, she merely appears to be topless.

But these photos clearly show Spears' greatest hits, which were adorned with temporary tattoos.

Playing a topless stripper would seem to indicate that Spears is expresses herself as a male fantasy and pure sex-object ... and thus contributing to demeaning women.

Some, however, contend that a woman can perform a striptease and still be empowered. This is an interesting question to consider.

Britney’s dad claimed the show go on


After performing a slew of sold out shows across North America, Britney Spears will soon embark on the European leg of her “Circus” tour. Not that she really wants to. Sources close to the singer claim she’s still emotionally fragile, and it’s her conservator-father Jamie Spears who insists the show must go on.

“It's a freak show right now,” a tour insider told the Awful Truth’s Ted Casablanca. “(Britney’s) phoning every song in. It's pretty obvious she is not happy to be here.”

But happy or not, the Britney Spears comeback tour is far from over. According to a recent report in Reveal magazine, Jamie Spears plans to add even more dates and keep his reluctant daughter on road.

“Jamie can't physically force Britney to get on stage and do more concerts, but he does have nearly all the power,” a family friend explained to the magazine. “He controls the purse strings and can make things very difficult for Britney if he chooses to. He gets to dictate her schedule — where she goes, who she sees, who she doesn't see. He's in charge of everything to do with her life. It's a battle of wills over who will win — but while her dad remains in charge, he'll be laying down the law."
