Wow - thank you for sharing this information with us. I have not heard that DiLeo was in the hospital. I'm wondering - did TMZ even report that he had surgery? If not, I wonder why when they are so set on "breaking the news"....
I must be a horrible person because my first thought was "if he dies its one more person who won't be able to be called to the Murray trial".
I know life happens but it seems like a lot of people surrounding Michael have dealt with difficulties in health or finances after June 25, 2009.
I will keep him in my prayers. Blessings.

:o Thank you for posting this information.. It is sad in a way. Was he good to Michael? I am wondering if he really was? I wish him all the best and a prompt recovery

:shock: :(
He's in my prayers... I hope he will recover soon!

I really hope he will be okay, but if Frank dies, he would be the second person in Mike's life to die in a very short time. :?

Thank you for sharing this. I really do hope he will be ok. I will keep him in my prayers.
Love and Blessings

Can anybody please explain why radar online would think it were appropriate to have a link in this article about Frank's serious condition pointing towards
* photos "inside Michael's house"
* pictures of Liz Taylor taking Michael's kids to Universal Studios at Halloween
* a law suit of Citadel Limited against Frank after Michael's "passing" and
* photos of Michael's family arriving at court.

You're right, Grace. It's disgraceful and totally inappropriate. They are tabloid, right? I think that explains it all. Anything for money.

Has this been confirmed by any other news sources?

EXCLUSIVE: Michael Jackson’s Ex Manager Frank Dileo Hospitalized, Fighting For His Life
Michael Jackson’s one-time manager Frank Dileo is in a Los Angeles hospital fighting for his life after having heart surgery and subsequently experiencing complications, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.
Sources close to the situation tell RadarOnline.com that Dileo had bypass surgery on his heart last week and then suffered from complications the next day.
RadarOnline.com has confirmed that Dileo is currently at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, but the status of his recovery is unknown.
“Frank scheduled his bypass to be at Cedars, but after suffering the heart attack, he’s taken a turn for the worse,” the source said.
“Much of his family is in town right now to be there for him. They’re worried, but of course hoping for the best.”
In August 2010, concert promoter Citadel Limited sued Dileo on accusations that the King of Pop’s manager had kept $300,000 the company paid as a fee for performances Jackson was supposed to make in Trinidad and Tobago just months after his June 2009 death.
Citadel Limited claimed Dileo personally accepted fees, which Citadel Limited paid via wire from April 2009 through June 2009.
Sadly, Michael Jackson died weeks later on June 25, 2009 in Los Angeles after suffering a sudden cardiac arrest.
The 63-year-old manager was the executive producer for Jackson’s full-length movie Moonwalker as well as eight music videos including Grammy winner Leave Me Alone. He also managed Jackson’s Bad World Tour and the Jackson family Victory Tour.
Dileo has also managed the careers of Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora, Taylor Dane and Jodeci as well as worked with Prince :shock: on numerous projects.

I'm guessing it's because we only know his name because of his association with Michael. Michael has put perhaps thousands on names on the map that no one would have cared about before.
I sure hope he will recover. He seems like a nice sincere guy.

From Aphrodite Jones' program on True Crime, September 30--- the program about Michael Jackson and the 2005 trial
The scenario: Here's a snippet from Part 2. Frank DiLeo is talking to Aphrodtie Jones about "daily life on the Bad Tour."
DiLeo tells Ms. Jones that on the Bad Tour, in every single city the tour played --- Michael Jackson visited a hospital, and bought a new piece of equipment for that hospital. "Yes, it was Michael's idea," DiLeo answers Ms. Jones' question.
Then Frank DiLeo tells a story. There was a child who was dying in a hospital (during the Bad Tour) in the city where the tour happened to be playing. Michael happened to have been at that particular hospital doing what he always did --- for LOVE. The extremely ill child wanted to meet Michael, and Michael went to the child, talked to him; and Frank DiLeo states...."the child perked up. It was amazing. I really couldn't take it. I went off -- over in a corner, and cried. And Michael came over to me and put his arm around me and said, 'You have to understand Frank. This is OUR JOB.......not getting up on stage and singing and dancing. Our job is making people feel good.' "

it is my prayer that franks heart will be healed in whatever ways it needs healing.
in Jesus name
-
Only a little over 10 years between Michael and Frank but Michael called him "Uncle Tookie".
-
Awww :cry:
I hope he recovers! Whether he was Michael's friend or not, (which I think he was), I still will keep him in my prayers & I pray that he recovers!
-
question. hadn't frank already had some by -pass surgeries. remember when he was to supposed to have told michael that was good that he had a cardiologist because of his heart? can they do them over or did he only have so many done or what?
-
Thank you for posting the news...
I am praying for Mr. Dileo and his family. :(

I think that's just a blogger trying to get more hits by placing links either automatically or manually that links to the more popular of the two names--Michael Jackson. I wouldn't really look into that that much or view it as a negative. It's just a blogging thing.

This is why other celebrities pale in comparison. And this is why we love Michael.
So....Is it confirmed that this story about Frank is true?

Edit: How come I don't find anything on the Internet about this? You would think more media sites would be putting out stories. I don't want to call hoax with everything but perhaps because it's "heart" related we need to look at this further.

what a touching little story

question. hadn't frank already had some by -pass surgeries. remember when he was to supposed to have told michael that was good that he had a cardiologist because of his heart? can they do them over or did he only have so many done or what?
Yes, you could have more than one bypass... there are four arteries that connect to the heart and it could be that he only had some of them replaced, and this time he needed the other ones done too.
My father had a quadruple heart bypass... which means he had all of the arteries done. But some people only have a triple, or a double, etc... so i suppose Frank could have more than one bypass over the years.
They use the veins in your legs to replace your heart arteries... im not sure if they would replace one thats already been replaced.
Either way, the more heart attacks he has had and the more times he has already had open heart surgery.... then the more riskier it becomes. Franks heart must be pretty weak and scarred by now. This is probably why he has had these complications.
He is also a very heavy man. He doesnt seem to have learnt the lessons from the past, and lost much weight. Thats not going to help things either.

Helllo!!!
This is what I found about Frank Dileo:
Per qbee & Ivy@MJJC (who contacted Frank's niece): "Frank had a bypass on March 21st. After his surgery he went into cardiac arrest and hasn't woken up since. His condition isn't good but the family is still hopeful."
Oh dear, this problem started right before Elizabeth died on the 23rd and they were both at Cedar Sinai for heart problems. I wonder if Elizabeth knew he was there. [/color]
-
Let's all pray for him.
-
I pray that he recovers. Maybe I'm wrong but I always thought that Frank was a good manager that Michael could trust. I dont know why I feel this way. You know if all of these people that are close to Michael are dying, who is he going to be able to rely on if and when he comes back. He doesnt have the support of Elizabeth Taylor like he always had.

Can i just say, i apologise if the title of this thread offends anyone.
I may have panicked a bit and was in shock when i first heard the news.
I have personal experience of this kind of health problem, and it may have influenced how i first reacted to the news.
I understand how the actual title might be offensive. However, i cannot change it.
MODS.. please edit the title if you feel fit.

I don't believe Chandler is dead. That man has no conscience. Why would he kill himself after 15 years when MJ dies? Doesn't make sense to me at all. I think he is in the WPP in exchange of information on the ones that emplyed him back in '93 to take down Mike. Chandler only cares about himself and money, no way he killed himself. And on November 5th? I don't buy that, and the fact that he was found 12 days later tells me that they had 12 days to get him out of the country with a new identity, before reporting on his death. Because i think those behind the accusations are really doubting this death as well.
When Jermaine said that Chandler's death proved Michael's innocence, I think he meant it in that way. Chandler being in the WPP because he gave info on the masterminds behind the 1993 accusations, is proof that Michael is innocent.

Well now Souza, that was interesting. I haven't researched any of that Chandler stuff, but now you have me thinking...

Wow! He basically lives with cardiac arrest? he did not die of cardiac arrest even after surgery where his body is weak. Interesting how easy and quckly, younger than Frank, Michael "died" of cardiac arrest and could not be helped in anyway of todays medical technology .
Could this also be a sign of possibility that Michael went to cardiac arrest for many days after June 25,09, then woke up? But before then, family decide to save him and announced him "dead". Which means family hoaxed Michael's death not Michael.(http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/aktion/action-smiley-015.gif)

OT:
So you're saying Evan is alive?
I don't think he killed himself because of Michael's death... That guy was mentally unstable, he was suffering from bipolar disorder. It has been claimed that Evan refused to take his meds. I think that the news reports of Jordan's confessions threw him over the edge. His own son had refused to play along after all these years and he'd been exposed.

Did we learn anything new about his health? Did he wake up?

Hmmm...if he's aware of what is going on around him but is "asleep" he must have brain activity. That is a good sign. Mr. Dileo is still in my prayers. May he wake from his sleep and be blessed with a speedy recovery.
About Evan Chandler - that whole situation was odd to me. Souza's thoughts about the WPP and why it was 12 days before he was found are very intriguing.
I don't have an opinion though because I have a brother-in-law who was bipolar and committed suicide. He wasn't taking his medications either, apparently. Not saying this is the same with Mr. Chandler but if he's bipolar I know it can make you unstable.
Blessings.

Those believers are the reason why non-believers think that we're crazy. They think that everything is a hoax.

Cardiac arrest can go either way. It depends on how quickly you get emergency medical care and the efficiency of the care giver.

I heartily believe this is what happened, even BACK's comments seem to infer that if you read between the lines.
JUSTICE........For it is already written!
And shall be illUMINATED! (E. Chandler— I hope you left proper notice repenting---the inferno awaits and you shall become a believer in what you didn’t before. HELL is your EQUALIZER. You’ve earned it!
“With all the ingredients—is it Simmering---can you smell it—how long before the “pie” is done.” – As many have realized, IT would have been greatness to an infinite degree.
Mr. Jackson--- you know I still have your back--- until my end.
Connected
KEEP Watchin'.......
Oh the pie is almost done, but the simmering is so challenging for us all. While this long hoax/MJ dream is going, life is continuing for all people, and unfortunately people age and succomb to physical ailments. I'm sure MJ has lost many other friends to death over the years.

I think he meant his condolences because Frank isn't doing well. That doesn't always mean he passed away, but his wife & kids may be going through some stress and worry right now because of his condition.

Maybe I answered my own question. It appears that Randy Jackson visited Frank in the hospital.

In the English language, when you offer condolences to the family... that means someone has passed away.
It is never used to describe someone who is sick in hospital as there is always hope when someone is still with us in the land of the living. Condolences suggests no hope.
Its an extremely poor choice, and an inappropriate choice of wording for Randy to use.

I'm not a native english speaker but I've never heard of people use the word "Condolences" when someone is in a coma or sick. As far as I heard, it is used when someone passes away. I wonder why Randy chose that word. Because there's no hope for his recovery? :(

I think it would be better for him to delete the tweet where he confused freak and Frank. :?

Not just a typo, but he forgot to write the F in caps as well. Strange.

i have been thinking that it was time for randy to show back up in this though.
it does seem rather interesting for someone who was in a similar boat not that long ago to be so callous.

maybe randy has some special healing powers ;) did anyone ever say if frank is supposed to testify or not?

I find it a bit strange that there are only a few media sources that have reported it. We get all of our info from family member's twitters, but it seems there are controversies in their stories.

Even if they call him like that, is it appropriate to use it on the internet when you are sending your "condolences" to that person's family? I don't think so.

How can you give condolences to a family if the person did not die? What is going on here?
-
Not just a typo, but he forgot to write the F in caps as well. Strange.
A typo mistake would be to forget putting a capital F or spell his name Fank.. forgetting an R not Freak. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THOSE PEOPLE?? Ok If I would be the Di Leo family I wouldn't be too pleased.

I mentioned on the .net forum that either Randy is a bit uneducated or he did it on purpose with the okay from the Dileo family to tweet that way just so he can tweet the one liner "which means he's still alive". I also found an old tweet of his from May 2010 and it looks like he knew the meaning of condolences back then:
randyjackson8 Randy Jackson
Saddened by the unexpected loss of my friend & lawyer Peter Lopez, who has represented my family ovr 20 yrs. Condolences 2 his wife & family

What I'm thinking is he tweeted that one liner for us. He's talking about Michael.

I'm not saying it was not a message- but: I have an iPhone and it has autocorrect. If I type Frank and forget to capitalize and in addition accidentally hit a neighboring key (which happens all the time with the virtual keyboard) - it is possible that Frank gets changed to freak. Texting, tweeting, etc all the time- I know those autocorrect errors are only too common. There's even a website about it.
Just keeping it real...

What upsets me is that they get angry for James in American Idol stating the pepsi thingy, but them they can make mistakes and it is ok for them. DiLeo family can get pretty angry. They are Italians, and Italians have a short temper, believe me I know :lol: What is fair for the goose is fair for the gander. blessings.

That's what I'm thinking too.Also,to say, he is still alive about Frank DiLeo sounds to me al little disrepectful.One can say Randy is not so good in choosing his words. :?
-
In the video: "was it a gift - a message of Michael for us? Which means that he is still alive?"
I think that most believers, who are hoax minded, would see Randy's tweets as a message like in the video, because his tweets seem kinda strange. Or.. we are a lil too sensitive and clues are everywhere :roll: :?
-
The only one who has ever been called a "Freak" I'm sad to say is Michael, but in this case saying he's alive, at least makes it a little more palatable. Frank's nicname is Tookie. I thought it's funny that you almost never see Frank without a big cigar in his mouth. Here's a good article on him, looking back.

FRANKLY SPEAKING An exclusive HITS interview with Frank DiLeo
Industry vet Frank DiLeo, who was the manager of Michael Jackson from 1984 through 1989, returned to the fold to help guide the superstar through his “This Is It” concerts and presumably beyond, but it was not to be. Here, the industry veteran shares his thoughts with HITS’ own ambulance-chasing Roy Trakin.
Q. This is like Godfather III… Just when you thought you were out, they pull you back in. How did you get involved with Michael again?
Michael first called me a couple of years ago, after he came back from Bahrain, then was in Ireland and Vegas for a while. We chitchatted, he called again and we started communicating about film projects. There were a couple of scripts we wanted to develop and produce. Then he got involved in this concert deal.
He called me in March and said, “Frank, I need someone with a little bit of experience. Would you like to manage me again and take care of all this stuff?” And I said, “Yeah, sure.” By the time I came in, everything was signed. Dr. Thome Thome—who is someone I don’t want to talk about in this interview—had miscalculated the scheduling on the dates, which is something I had to take care of, because Michael didn’t want to perform more than twice a week.
Q. Was Michael aware that he was signing for up to 50 individual shows?
Absolutely. I read the contract. I know what the minimum amount of dates were, as well as the maximum number of dates. That contract was read to Michael by three different lawyers, as well as Dr. Thome. He wanted to beat Prince’s record and be in the Guinness Book of World Records. He was the one who picked the number 50. There were enough ticket sales to do 85 shows, but he was zeroed in on 50. That’s what he wanted and that’s what happened. Dr. Thome had him doing three or four shows a week, though. I was adjusting and moving dates to try to make it more palatable for Michael to do.
Q. What had you been doing since managing Michael the first time?
I was in New York with a management company in the ’90s. I retired for a while and spent some time with my son and daughter, seeing them through college. My kids didn’t get a lot of time with me growing up because I was on tour so much, so I felt I owed them that. And that lasted seven years. I did a lot of consulting work. I owned a piece of Tribeca Grill with Robert DeNiro, which did very well.
In 2004 I lost my eyesight, and it’s taken six operations to enable me to see. I still have limited vision. It was a diabetic condition that separated the retina. I lost complete sight in one eye and 80% in the other eye. It took two years for them to figure that out. There’s a lot of scar tissue still, and I don’t see well in light. I have to wear dark glasses all the time. I have to move my head to see certain letters because I have a permanent “V” in my vision.
Q. You sat in on most of the rehearsals.
Every single one. He was in good condition. He was working out with Lou Ferrigno. He was dancing over three hours every day after his workout. He was prepared. A lot of times he would watch and direct. These are songs he’s sung his whole life. He didn’t have to go full out every day. The last couple of weeks, he stepped it up.
On the night before he died, when he came down after doing 10 or 11 songs, Kenny Ortega was at the bottom of the stairs, we all hugged and Michael put his arm around us and we around him, to walk him to his dressing room. And he said, “Frank, I’m ready. I’m doing all 50 shows. Don’t even think that I’m not.”
We talked about possibly doing stadiums after the 50. He said, “Frank, I’ve never been happier. Since you’ve been back, things are going well. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. We did it once. This is our time to do it again.” And that was the last time I saw him alive.
Q. People were saying Michael was down to 110 pounds and wasn’t in good physical shape.
No, that’s all bullish. He was not down to 110 pounds. He was around 140. At his maximum, he was maybe 155.
Q. You’re telling me this is a very confident guy, ready to take on this challenge.
He knew he was 50 and that the other dancers were young. He built his stamina up to the point where he knew he could do it. Michael’s a competitive guy.
I don’t care whether you’re five years old or 40, you’re not going to out-dance Michael Jackson. He’s gonna put it to you sooner or later. And he worked himself up to that.
Q. How did you originally hear about Michael falling ill?
A fan called and said there was an ambulance in front of Michael’s house. I had just sat down to lunch. I called Michael’s assistant and asked what was going on, and I was told there was something wrong and he was on his way over there. So I got in my car and drove over. When I got to the gate, they told me everyone had already left. I turned around and went to UCLA Medical Center, and while I was in the car, Katherine called and I told her she should meet us at the hospital.
So we went in the back, and they were working on him in the room. So I thought he was going to be OK. Then the nurse came out, she looked at me and I looked at her… I almost fainted. The look told me it was over, but they would keep working on him until his mother arrived.
Meanwhile, the kids were all there, in another room. I had to go in with a doctor and a social worker to tell them what happened. And those are two things I never, ever want to do again. Excuse me a minute, I might cry here. Let me get a sip of water.
Q. What was the children’s reaction?
Exactly what you think it would be: [they] ran up to me, grabbed me, crying and screaming. Finally, Jermaine and LaToya showed up, then Randy… And a social worker started talking to all of them. Meanwhile, I was dealing with the press, trying to keep everybody out, and set up some security.
At that point, they said the kids wanted to see their dad. So they moved Michael into a room and covered him. I went in first, got a chance to hug him, kiss him and say goodbye, and 20 minutes later, the kids and the rest of the family got to do the same thing.
Everybody forgets. Michael wasn’t just a client to me; he was my friend. I always managed him from that basis. We were friends in the ’80s, and we were friends after he fired me. We were always friends.
Q. Were you aware that Michael had a prescription drug problem?
I didn’t know. I realize it’s come out that he did go to rehab. I asked him in March about it, and he got very indignant. He said, “Frank, do you think I would do something that would jeopardize my kids and leave them alone? Don’t be ridiculous.”
So what do you say? Do addicts ever admit they’re doing drugs? No. So, I got to take the man’s word. He’s 50 years old. How far could I push him? I never heard of the stuff he supposedly took [propofol]. When I heard about that on TV, I couldn’t believe it.
Q. Do you have any opinion about the two doctors under investigation, Dr. Arnold Klein and Dr. Conrad Murray?
Michael’s gone to Dr. Klein for years. I don’t know how Michael met Dr. Murray. Michael brought him up to me when he mentioned that part of his contract required AEG to hire him a doctor to be with him in London, and he specified he wanted Dr. Murray, claiming he was his family doctor. The original price he asked for was outrageous. I told Michael I could buy him a whole hospital for that kind of money.
Q. The press reports said AEG was paying him $150k a month.
That’s what I OK’d. What he originally asked for was astronomical. AEG did not hire the doctor. That was Michael’s doctor for months. AEG just advanced him the payment, which was part of the budget.
I had one meeting with him, making sure Michael had the right vitamins, what kind of smoothies to make, should it be G2 or Gatorade after the show? He told us he was a cardiologist, and I said, “Michael, this is perfect. Because I’ve already had three heart attacks and I have seven stents in my heart. If I drop over in London, this guy’s right there.”
Q. Dr. Murray was the last man to see Michael Jackson alive.
He was, yes. Nobody knows what happened in that room. We have to wait for the toxicology and the autopsy. I do know the preliminary autopsy said Michael’s organs were in good shape, his liver was good, his heart was strong. They said he did not have a heart attack. It had to be some sort of allergic reaction or something that didn’t blend right. There was some sort of reaction.
Q. Where does that leave you at this point?
There are a few things that have to get cleared up. I have to make sure the estate understands some of the things that I know. I’ve been appointed to the board of Sony/ATV Music Publishing. So I have a role to play there.
Michael wrote the letter getting me appointed. After they removed Dr. Thome, they added myself and Joel Katz.
Q. Does it sadden you to see how the family’s inner disagreements are now being aired in public?
It’s sad to the point that there’s a lot of misinformation. The family didn’t know what was going on. They didn’t see Michael every day like I did. He was the closest to his mother and his kids. But I gave him that personal space to be with his family.
Some of them are talking about things I don’t think they have the knowledge to talk about. That’s just emotion. They have to face the facts and make some decisions.
Q. What was Michael’s relationship like with his father?
Joe was his father, and that’s what Michael wanted. He didn’t want to know about any business. He just wanted him to be his father. He wanted to be loved as a son, not a commodity.
Q. Did he ever get that?
I don’t know. Watch the Larry King interview with Joe Jackson and you make that determination. It was a train wreck.
Q. You must still be in a state of shock.
Michael created one of the greatest shows ever, a $27 million production. I went through it with him every day. It’s sad that people will never get to see that. But the key thing here is that I lost my friend. That’s what matters to me. All this other stuff is what it is.
Q. Where is your nickname “Tookie” come from?
That’s derived from the name “Tookie.” The chief of police in Pittsburgh came to see my dad when I was born and called me that. Then it became “Tukkie” when I met my wife. Everybody I know from childhood calls me “Tookie.”
For everybody after I met my wife, it’s “Tukkie.” We’ve been married for 32 years. I’m the only guy in the record business who’s never had to go to rehab or get a divorce.

And again someone close to Michael is claiming he didn't know Michael had a prescription drug problem and doesn't believe it either. So does Dr Treacy viewtopic.php?f=219&t=18533 (http://www.michaeljacksonhoaxforum.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?f=219&t=18533)

I'm not saying it was not a message- but: I have an iPhone and it has autocorrect. If I type Frank and forget to capitalize and in addition accidentally hit a neighboring key (which happens all the time with the virtual keyboard) - it is possible that Frank gets changed to freak. Texting, tweeting, etc all the time- I know those autocorrect errors are only too common. There's even a website about it.
Just keeping it real...
I agree with you, but normally don't you proof read what you write and submit? I know I can make a typo mistake, when I write a post, and do submit it before I proof read it, then I see my mistake, thank God for the edit button, I correct the mistake I made. I think it is the obvious. We are not all perfect, we do make mistakes, but calling a person freak, when his name is Frank, that is the top of the mistakes.

I mentioned on the .net forum that either Randy is a bit uneducated or he did it on purpose with the okay from the Dileo family to tweet that way just so he can tweet the one liner "which means he's still alive". I also found an old tweet of his from May 2010 and it looks like he knew the meaning of condolences back then:
randyjackson8 Randy Jackson
Saddened by the unexpected loss of my friend & lawyer Peter Lopez, who has represented my family ovr 20 yrs. Condolences 2 his wife & family
1 May
What I'm thinking is he tweeted that one liner for us. He's talking about Michael.
which hints of larry's still dead comment maybe ;)
