Tabloid: MICHAEL JACKSON'S NEW TELL-ALL MEMOIR

Re: MICHAEL JACKSON'S NEW TELL-ALL MEMOIR (Could this be true ??)

I think it's very likely that after the trial Michael needed to put his thoughts down on paper, as in a journal, where he could get it out and process his pain over the whole thing. During the searches of his homes by the prosecutors, he spoke of how they took his personal papers, and he spoke of the journals and his thoughts he had written down about his mother, and he said he felt violated that a law enforcement person was reading his private thoughts about his own mother like that. It is also possible he left them behind in Bahrain. The person who has them, if he is connected to this sheik, which I assume he must be, is very unscrupulous b/c the sheik already sued Michael when Michael left Bahrain for 7 M so why do this now? What a rotten 'friend.'

Love this to be true. Real thoughts on different things that went on in the world regarding MJ.
 
Re: MICHAEL JACKSON'S NEW TELL-ALL MEMOIR (Could this be true ??)

Still does not add up. If you are this sheikh you do not need a tabloid to get publisher & public interest. With a product like that, i.e., an autobiography from Michel, you go to any publisher and they will take it. This is a hot item if it is a legit story. You will get an advance. Your publisher will arrange for the TV thing & this book is a bestseller.

If it is the sheikh, when Michael left did he forget to take it? Let's say Michael gave it to him for safekeeping, why didn't Michael ask for it back when they had a fall out. The sheikh also claimed all the things Michael owed him, including ice cream, did he also put in a claim for autobiography not completed?

Jamba thanks for that new information ^^. So Michael may have left some things behind? How about what the police took? Did they ever return his papers to him? I hope someone did not make some deal with a shady law enforcer person, collected papers for him and them intend to add them to any Michael left in the Middle East. That would make sense why the article talks about getting someone to arrange the thing.

well if this is true..then they need to release this book "as is"...no need to edited it. WHY edit Michael's very own words.??,,,he ment what he said...I don't want to read someone else's crap anymore...IF this is true and I hope it is..I WILL be buying this book.

Me too. Can you imagine the interpretation they would put on it, & Michael is not here to look it over before it goes to print. Don't get me wrong. If Michael left a manuscript, I would love to hear his words. In fact, I am sure half the fan base would buy 2 copies. The problem is, if this is true, how did you get your hands on it in a legitimately way? Is every page signed to" XYZ from Michael Jackson" (just humor here). Guys remember when the Body Exhibit began & many Americans were concered about where the Chinese got the bodies from since there were cases of execution. They wanted to know if the executed people had given their assent. The people in charge affirmed that non of the exhibits died as a result of execution, and people felt much better about the display. I am like that here. I want to know how did you get it? Was it done in some underhand way without michael's knowledge.
 
Re: MICHAEL JACKSON'S NEW TELL-ALL MEMOIR (Could this be true ??)

MJ did keep journals and notebooks, but Jermaine said the family has those. From what surfaced from the Vaccaro vault it seems MJ really did keep everything. Post it notes, notepads where he was just copying out Bible verses back in the late 70s, draft notes to people at his record label, etc

Could it be possible that someone in J family sold those journals & now claim MJ was writing his autob?

Oh you know I never thought of that, but since they like money, they would know they could keep it all for themselves. Why would they sell the doc to someone who would make more after publication? For that reason I think it is not them. I could see them saying that their loving brother left them with the manuscript & publish it after taking out all the stuff about the family. They would not give the manuscript to someone with the negative family stuff in it.

Also, they do not know how to wait & would have published this ASAP. For them to go through with the fake belts, perfume, AEG, fake tribute shows they have no big money making material at home. We should ask Latoya what happened to the notes she took, although I think she said she was keeping the for the kids.

King of Pop Michael Jackson secretly began writing an autobiography about his lowest moments in the last years of his life.

Jackson, who died in 2009, reportedly wrote 600 pages of notes about his struggles during the late eighties through 2007, Daily Express reported.

He also accumulated sketches and documents in an attempt to correct how history was written about him. During those two decades, Jackson was rarely out of the headlines, not least for paying off Jordie Chandler 12 million pounds amid child-sex allegations.

His admission that he shared his bed with children led Jackson to be accused but acquitted in 2005 of molesting Gavin Arvizo.

Anguished, then Jackson flew to the Middle East where he began writing the manuscripts, where a former business contact has locked them away.

The wealthy associate is in two minds over releasing the book, which is not complete and would need to be fleshed out to make a full autobiography.

Jackson wrote one biography, 'Moonwalk', which had to be heavily edited because of attacks on family members. "The manuscript covers a raft of Michael's adventures and business dealings. He makes it clear that he is the father of Prince and Paris. Michael wrote the book because he never got a chance to tell his story and at some stage needed to express his feelings on everything.

"The book addresses the child molestation at Neverland, insisting how he felt sickened that he was accused of doing that. Michael also talks about Jordie even though both parties agreed a gagging order when they settled in 1993," a source said.

Jackson died after his doctor, Conrad Murray, pumped him with anesthetic Propofol days before his comeback tour in June 2009.

An LA source

“Michael also talks about Jordie even though both parties agreed a gagging order when they settled in 1993.

“One of the key aspects of Michael’s book is his thoughts on his family.

“He talks about how he had been let down by all of them for many years. He accused most of them of wanting his money and being jealous of his fame.

“The only person who doesn’t get his venom is his mother Katherine.

“Michael says he felt that his mum was the only one, who understood him and his delicate nature.”

Re: Michael Jackson Wrote A Tell All Memoir

I was just about to post this article. I find it very fascinating that a book like this might exist. It would truly be a real gem and the only authentic reflection from MJ on his life and career. I really really wish this book exists and that it will be published some day!!
 
Re: MICHAEL JACKSON'S NEW TELL-ALL MEMOIR (Could this be true ??)

I've been thinking Randy Jackson could consider this route, yup.

But yeah, the fact that he reportedly calls his family greedy - they'd never allow that.

I suspect as of right now the reason they're calling his journals and papers he has "sacrosanct" is because they know he talks about them there.
 
Re: Michael Jackson Wrote A Tell All Memoir

Wow, this would be so precious! And if he intended this for the public, I wouldn't feel like I'd be violating his privacy.
 
A raw MJ book. his own words.. that would be really interesting.. i somehow doubt this will get published (if its even true)
 
Would be great if true? But, not if they edit what he said to twist it in another way. Has to be as is. And what's up with that article saying MJ paid off Jordan SMH. No HE DID NOT!

There they go again with the Michael paid lies. Is this what this alleged book will be like?

Guys, if we do not know the integrity of the person, i.e., how they got it, how are we going to know if the final product was not edited to change the meaning? How do we know that michael really wrote it? If this is true, I hope people find a trustworthy person who can attest that the information in the book is true to the notes.

The problem I have is that this person could claim that michael wrote he really did these things to a child, and since we do not have the notes or know the person they are coming from, we will have to use court documents to refute it. They could say that from his own mouth he is admitting it. I really don't like this news, and hope this person is reputable, if this story is true.

It seems that after the last failed book that talked about the bad family, this manuscript has that information as well. So did someone look at the last book and decide to write something along the same lines but make it an autobiography?

Did the kids ever tweet that daddy was writing a book?
 
As part of the agreement Michael had with the Bahrain prince, I can't believe he would sign-off his memoirs, if they did exist. No way. This is either a completely fabricated story, or someone simply trying to make money off Michael. If someone other than the Estate is in possessin of his writings, I believe they came to own it by chance or deceit. It's nothing new, just look at what happened with his art and drawings.

I would love an autobio, espcially focusing on the last years of his life, but I will only support such a project if it came from the Estate of Michael. I don't trust anybody else, other than Michael's kids to publish something like that out of sincere love and admiration for Michael and his legacy.
 
Petra, I remember reading Michael talking how how when they did the searches, which they did in 93 and later in 03 (we are talking 100s of search warrants), they took his personal journals. He talked about how horrible it was for him that a law enforcement person was going to read his private thoughts, and he specifically mentioned his mother (that he had written his thoughts about her down). I don't recall now whether he made the statements in the 93 or the 03 situation, but I think it was the 93 one. I will try and find the links.I know he said that they did not give MJ even a list of what they took (!) even though he asked for it. Also MJ said they did not give the stuff back, as of the time he was speaking anyway.

Re Bahrain, I got the impression MJ left the sheik without making it clear he wasn't coming back. The sheik seemed to be shocked to find out 'his brother'--the one he was going to sue (for ice cream??) wasn't coming back. So maybe some stuff was left behind.
 
Oh dear. Jamba in the court documents is there a list of what was taken & marked for evidence? Under what conditions does the police keep your possessions especially after a case is finished? I thought after a case they were supposed to give you back all your possessions? His children may have to look into this.

About this ice cream guy, as someone said, Michael would have something like his diary with his personal belongings, so how could he leave it behind? Well Michael did claim his jewelry was stolen while he was growing up, so anything is possible.
 
Re: MICHAEL JACKSON'S NEW TELL-ALL MEMOIR (Could this be true ??)

I question this. Michael was making notes and keeping journals, why would he leave it behind? I know that when I carry my journals with me, I keep them close. No one knows for sure except Michael if these memoirs exist. Of course I question the timing of it all as well. My heart just hurts knowing that people are still trying to profit by Michael. :no:
 
Re: MICHAEL JACKSON'S NEW TELL-ALL MEMOIR (Most Likely Story is not True)

Ha ha, it's BS. MJ would never keep anythig so personal out of his possession. And on top of that, it comes out just now, why not when he was alive, or sometime in 2009, or 2010, 2011, 2012, etc. They just want to make money, ha ha. MJ's songs and his Moonwalk book is autobiographic. :rofl:
 
Also anyone can edit what Mj has said and MJ can't come out and defend himself because he's no longer with us. Sorry, it's BS.
 
"Reuters reports that Sheikh Abdulla is suing Michael Jackson for $7 million, the amount of a "payback agreement" between the two which included a "recording contract, autobiography and a musical stage play," by means of a "combined rights agreement."

I wonder if Guy Holmes is behind this rumour about MJ's bio? For him being british, I would think it is natural that he would go to british tabloids with his info?

"U.K. record executive Guy Holmes has been tapped as CEO of the Two Seas label and will also be tasked with managing Jackson's other business interests. "

If Michael started recording and doing stuff with 2Seas, it could possible he started writing his bio with them.

We'll see what is going to happen.

They had to return things back to him in 2005 though they did take many of his things for the trial.

If he left it behind I imagine it was because he was thinking about doing this biography, but never managed to put down anything substantial and then backed out.
 
Like others have said even if this were true what was written could be changed to suit ppls agendas. And no one would know.story probably created out of nothing tabloid dream and imo tabloid fantasy b.s.
 
The express isn't much of a newspaper, it's owned by an ex-porn publisher and when it's not ranting on about diana being murdered it's telling us how house prices are soaring, or crashing - it hedges it's bets. However the james desborough has form with mj - he used to be with the notw until it folded and it was he who had the exclusive interviews with joe and latoya post 25 june and he was the one who published the trust document. So i suppose he has sources. Anyway he's a hater, you can read some really disgusting defamatory articles with his byline before mj died never mind after. And he is described in glowing terms as never getting any facts wrong and being a rock solid reporter by er ian halperin no less. So if you're going to demonise everything from sullivan, you really are going to have to ignore this story when he won't even name his source from la.
 
Agree bonnie. its hardly believable considering the source. or if theres some slight truth its prob been twisted and made into something bigger than it is
 
Another lame attempt to make money at Michael's expenses. :doh: Why would Michael leave behind a journal(s) with his personal thoughts behind if he really wrote it? I hope The Estate stops them.
 
Real or not.....edited or unedited, I worry that if this thing ever hits the market, it will be picked apart and the media will cherry pick exerpts to mock him yet again. I don't see the media sitting quietly and allowing Michael to have any say about his life that would deter from the "freak" portrait that they've worked decades establishing.

It might even have self proclaimed experts like Sullivan making more rounds saying Michael was delusional, read my crappy book for the "real" story.
 
I read a comment on another site that according to Sullivan (a.k.a. Cry Babe), Tohme says there was a safe left in Bahrain w.personal stuff including jewels and papers and that the sheik kept hold of it during the lawsuit. When the case was settled, Tohme went to pick it up and found it was empty. According to Tohme, Grace W. was the only one with the key. But maybe Tohme took the stuff. Who knows???
 
:wtf:


Well, Michael is no longer here. So it's very easy for someone to show up and say it was written by Michael. It is not enough just to say, has to prove that it was actually written by him. I do not believe this story of book. :nono: Again are wanting to use the name of Michael to make money. :( :perrin: Disgusting.... :puke:
