Michael Jackson Will Be Debt Free
According to a recent interview with a Michael Jackson associate, the star has $100 million in loans. This is a good news indeed: the very same loan was more then $300 million back in 2005.
If Jackson will pay his loans like this, then he will be DEBT FREE before 2011 (and we did not take into consideration his incomes from the AEG Live deal).
New Michael Jackson Calendar
ML Publishing will release a new Michael Jackson calendar this October on 14 pages.
It is still unclear if the product has been approved by Jackson himself.

Updates in the Harris-Scott Case
4/10/2009
As I have reported, Helen Harris-Scott's case against Michael Jackson is still pending.
However Harris-Scott did not appear on the last hearing yesterday, therefore Jackson's lawyer filed for a dismissal.
The judge will decide on the motion on May 14, 2009.
-> Nachdem die Sache mit der Auktion nun geregelt ist, muss man sich, meines Wissens nach, nur noch mit einer weiteren, wichtigen juristischen Angelegenheit auseinandersetzen: die Klage von John Landis. Alle weiteren Klagen sind kleinere Sachen und demnach nicht wichtig bzw. bald auch vom Tisch.
Zudem denke ich, dass auch die Angelegenheit mit John Landis außergerichtlich und schnell geregelt werden kann. Hier nochmal die letzte Meldung aus dem März dazu, weil sie in diesem Thread noch nicht gepostet wurde:
ZitatAlles anzeigen"Thriller" musical delayed over legal battle
March 22, 11:11 AM
Michael Jackson's "Thriller" music video.Work on Michael Jackson's stage-adaption of his hit song "Thriller," into a Broadway musical, has been delayed because of the legal battle he's involved in with filmmaker John Landis (Animal House and The Blues Brothers).
Landis filed suit against Jackson the day after he announced his plans for "Thriller" in January. Landis is suing over royalties he says are owed to him for the song's music video that he directed. He says he's due 50 percent of the net profits for the video, thought to be over $1 million.
What timing.
Jackson just sold the rights to "Thriller" to James Nederlander of Nederlander Organization in January. He said the story is made for Broadway — "Girl meets boy, they fall in love, boy has major secret and let’s see what happens from there."
Who knows if or when we'll see this classic music video live on the stage.

Ola Ray suing Michael Jackson
Jackson's Thriller 'Date' Sues -- Michael Stiffed Me!
Posted May 5th 2009 2:35PM by TMZ Staff
The chick who starred as Michael Jackson's female date in the "Thriller" video is suing Jackson and his production company -- claiming she hasn't been paid royalties from the legendary video.
We spoke to Ola Ray's attorney, who tells us the former Playboy Playmate is suing for breach of contract because she claims she never got her cut of the Thriller profits.
We're told Ola's not sure exactly how much she's owed -- her accountants will figure that out.

blabablub...kaum sieht es so aus, als käme bei mike wieder ordentlich flüssiges rein, kriechen wieder alle aus den löchern, und meinen, michael verklagen zu müssen.
das geht mir derbst auf den zeiger 
witzig, dass der dame das dann doch schon nach 25 jahren einfällt... 
interessant vor allem, daß sie wegen dieser Sache vor Jahren schonmal geklagt hat.
Das ist dann aber irgendwie im Sande verlaufen.
Vielleicht denkt sie ja es wäre ne gute Idee sich an Mr. Landis dranzuhängen.
Ola Ray Lawsuit
5/06/2009
Despite the recent media reports, Ola Ray did not sue Michael Jackson again.
Ray's case has been closed last December, because she was unable to show the cause of the case.
On April 24, 2009 Ray's lawyer filed a motion to reopen the case citing that it's been closed in error.
No rule has been made on the motion so far.
Ola Ray Sues Michael Jackson Over Thriller Royalties
The co-star of the blockbuster Thriller music video, Ola Ray, has reportedly filed a new lawsuit against Michael Jackson claiming that she is owed royalties for her role in the short film. The lawsuit, if accurate, comes on the heels of another Thriller-related lawsuit filed by John Landis earlier this year, which also cites unpaid royalties and breach of contract (Landis filed two separate, yet interwoven lawsuits and a status conference is set for May 11th).
Interestingly enough, Ola Ray has gone on the record in recent years as admitting that it was not Michael Jackson who was withholding funds from her, but some other party--going as far as to apologize to Michael Jackson for wrongfully believing he was the one keeping back her money (in a late-2007 interview with KCRA). In 2008 Ola revealed that Michael Jackson used to routinely send her checks in excess of $3,775 each for her involvement in Thriller, although it is unclear at this point whether any contractual obligations required him to do so or if the checks were merely in good faith. In 2008, Ola proclaimed that "Everyone thinks I made millions but I don't care... I wouldn't change anything. I'm just so proud to have been part of something that's still so special." In celebrating the 25th anniversary of Thriller, Ola told the media that she would be "more than ready to star with Michael once again."
In fact, this isn't the first time Ola Ray has sued Michael Jackson. More than a decade early-in the mid-1990s--Ola Ray filed a lawsuit against Michael Jackson and the Screen Actors Guild with regards to the Thriller music video, claiming that she was promised a percentage of the profits generated by the video and never received what she was entitled to. The case was eventually settled and she was given $10,000 via the Screen Actors Guild. In addition, a case was quietly filed by Ola Ray in June of 2008 against Michael Jackson, the Screen Actors Guild, and Amazon.com although it is unclear at this time if that case is connected to the newly rumored lawsuit, as reported today by TMZ.
Other than modeling for various commercials and print advertisements in the 1980s (including Playboy), Ola Ray has struggled to find work. Repeated hopes of writing a book and starting a singing or acting career have generally ended in vein. In 2001, Ola spoke to Vibe Magazine while producing tracks for her anticipated debut album "Resurrection," and named Michael Jackson as one of her major musical influences. "He has such a presence. You can feel his energy from across the room."
Ray was arrested for possession of cocaine in 1992 and spent almost a year at a drug treatment facility; later moving in with football player Jim Brown and enduring an abusive relationship which subsequently lead to her continued reliance on drugs. Ola at one point sued Jim Brown as part of a paternity case, whereby he was cleared by DNA of being the father of Ola's daughter. Earlier this decade Ola Ray made money primarily by hosting parties at the Playboy Mansion. She is now a stay-at-home mom.

She said she's since discovered someone else was holding back her money.

THRILLER ACTRESS SUES JACKSON
05/05/2009 22:00
MICHAEL JACKSON's smash hit THRILLER is coming back to haunt him - his video girlfriend is suing the pop superstar over unpaid royalties.
Actress Ola Ray, a former Playboy Playmate, has filed suit against Jackson and his production company alleging breach of contract.
According to TMZ.com, Ray's attorney claims she was promised a cut of the 1983 promo's revenue but has yet to receive a penny.
The epic 14-minute video, which was directed by John Landis, was the most expensive promo of its time, at a cost of $500,000 (£336,470).
Landis also filed suit against Jackson in January (09), claiming he's owed royalties for his work on the iconic promo and related spin-offs.
In his suit, the moviemaker alleged he had a deal in place with the superstar, which entitled him to 50 per cent of the net profits from the video and related material. That case continues.
Ola Ray Allegedly Sues Michael Jackson Over Thriller Royalties
Update: Leslie (MichaelJackson.hu) indicates that "Despite the recent media reports, Ola Ray did not sue Michael Jackson again.

On April 24, 2009 Ray's lawyer filed a motion to reopen the case citing that it's been closed in error." As mentioned in the original MJJR.net report below, Ola had sued Michael Jackson and related parties twice in the past decade or so seeking money for her participation in the Thriller music video; it appears that TMZ may have mistaken her case from 2008 for something new.

MIJAC SUED BY 'THRILLER' CO-STAR: Ola Ray says she hasn't seen a dime of promised royalties.
(May 6, 2009)
It's been 26 years since Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video was released, and the woman who played his love interest is just now filing a lawsuit claiming she hasn't been paid her share of royalties.
TMZ.com reports that Ola Ray is suing Jackson and his production company to receive her cut of profits from the groundbreaking 13 minute clip, in which her character watches her boyfriend (Jackson) turn into a dancing zombie.
"We spoke to Ola Ray's attorney, who tells us the former Playboy Playmate is suing for breach of contract," TMZ stated. "We're told Ola's not sure exactly how much she's owed -- her accountants will figure that out."
Gloves are off! 'Thriller' co-star Ola Ray sues Michael Jackson for royalties
By Nancy Dillon
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER
Wednesday, May 6th 2009, 4:00 AM
LOS ANGELES - The former Playboy centerfold who played Michael Jackson's crush in his legendary "Thriller" video wants a jury to end her nightmare of trying to collect royalties.
Ola Ray, 48, filed a lawsuit in Santa Monica, Calif., Tuesday claiming Jackson deadbeat when it comes to paying for her her famous strut and blood-curdling scream in the 14-minute zombie fest.
"She just wants to get her fair share of payments from this extremely successful project that she's very proud of," her lawyer Jason Feldman told the Daily News. "She did receive some payments early on, but we don't believe they were complete, and they were never timely."
A Jackson attorney reportedly paid an unspecified amount to Ray through the Screen Actors Guild in 1998, but payments to date have fallen short, Feldman said.
"We're expecting it to be a significant sum that she's owed," he said. "The video continues to sell a lot worldwide and was just released again for it 25th anniversary."
He said licensing of the video's content and images to various DVDs and video games might also add up to a "substantial sum."
Now living away from the spotlight in Sacramento, Calif., with her 14-year-old daughter, Ray declined to comment on the lawsuit.
"I'm a stay-at-home mom, everything is good, especially now," she told the News, referring to the lawsuit.
She still pursues her acting, modeling and music work Feldman said. She was busted for cocaine in 1992 and later told People magazine that she stopped working after "Thriller" because she refused to give "sexual favors" to producers.
Ray isn't the first to sue Jackson over the ground-breaking video. Famed director John Landis, who wrote and shot the mini-movie, sued Jackson for back royalties on Jan. 21.
Calls to Jackson's spokesman Tohme R. Tohme were not immediately returned.
