Prince (Not That One) Targets Michael Jackson

By Eriq Gardner

Jacksonmichael_2 The King of Bahrain's son was so eager to hear the King of Pop's next album that he fronted Michael Jackson millions of dollars as an advance for a record, an autobiography and a stage play.

The singer didn't produce, so now Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa is suing Jackson for $7 million in U.K. court to recover money that allegedly went to expenses including legal fees and a hairdresser.

Jackson claims there was no valid agreement, that the money was a gift. His lawyers also claim the singer is too sick to travel and will the seek permission to testify by video link from the United States.


He is still king of pop but after his vitiligo story and facing so much criticism he could not perform and

gain huge fame he deserved.
