The latest mysterious figure in Jackson’s life and death is Dr. Tohme Tohme, who has been called Jackson’s “adviser”, “sole spokesperson”, and “business manager” for the last year and a half of Jackson’s life. So far the press hasn’t really delved into Tohme’s background as a recent AP report on Tohme listed his background as “murky”. The AP news article stated the Tohme used the title “Dr.” and that Tohme “apparently” has a medical degree even though there’s no record he’s practiced in the United States.
According to the AP, Tohme is an American citizen of Lebanese descent, in his “late 50’s”, and a “financier” who, out of the goodness of his heart and a relationship with Jackson’s brother Jermaine, contacted a “close personal friend”, Tom Barrack, Chairman of Colony Capital, to meet with Jackson. Purportedly, both Barrack and Tohme were “so impressed” with Jackson that Barrack bought the note to Neverland while Tohme decided to help Jackson get his finances into order without Tohme being paid for his services. And yet we found court documents filed by Tohme on behalf of Michael Jackson that list Tohme as President of Michael Jackson Productions. Documents that were filed in the March 23, 2009 lawsuit against the auction house set to auction Jackson’s Neverland personnel items. Also listed in the lawsuit, Tohme’s “business partner” James Weller
Tohme claimed he set up the original meeting between Barrack, Tohme, and Jackson. One result of the meeting: Barrack wound up saving Neverland from the auction but also gained ownership, with Jackson given some sort of profit sharing agreement. It was Barrack who contacted the owner of AEG, Phillips Anschutz.
On June 2, Business Mirror.com reported that Barrack’s own fortune, which Forbes estimated in 2008 at 2.3 billion when Barrack met Jackson, had dwindled to the “multi-millions”. Barrack and Anschutz believed worldwide ticket sales to Jackson’s “greatest” comeback tour could exceed $450 million. The money that Barrack invested in Jackson was backed by his investment in Neverland. Phillips Anschutz’s AEG’s investment in Jackson: $20 million.
More from the Business Mirror and Dr. Tohme:
“In an interview last week Dr. Tohme Tohme, an orthopedic surgeon-turned-businessman who had previously worked with Colony Capital, identified himself as the singer’s “manager, spokesman, everything” and spoke about the benefits of dealing with business titans Barrack and Anschutz rather than their “sleazy” predecessors. “Michael Jackson is an institution. He needs to be run like an institution,” Tohme said.
The next day, however, Frank DiLeo, Jackson’s current manager and a friend of three decades, claimed he was Jackson’s manager and said Tohme had been fired a month and a half earlier. Tohme denied being fired but declined further comment.”It was Tohme, who previously “worked with” Colony Capital, who now acted as Jackson’s ‘adviser’ and who also escorted Jackson to the meeting where Jackson agreed to an initial 10 concerts with AEG and Colony Capital as promoters. It was Thome’s business partner who threatened the auction house who was set to auction off the very same memorabilia which will be undoubtedly be used in a Michael Jackson museum, which chances are, could be Neverland. It is Colony Capital who owns Neverland and who would benefit from a Jackson museum or shrine.
It was AEG Live who hired Dr. Conrad Murray, the cardiologist who was with Jackson when he collapsed in his rented Los Angeles Bel-Air mansion and later died.
Even though Tohme claimed he wasn’t “being paid” by Jackson as Jackson’s “adviser”, Tohme did state he was “working with” Barrack and Anschutz. Yet official court documents filed by Tohme state he is president of Michael Jackson Productions. It remains to be seen just how Tohme has, or will profit from his association with Jackson. What we do know is that he has been publicly promoting in the press “his desire” to see a Michael Jackson museum at Neverland both before and after Jackson’s death. And that, prior to Jackson’s death, as well as after, Tohme promoted the allusion that Jackson was “healthy”.
