Interesting jacket they have found on a post-Sandy NJ beach. Why does it look familiar? Also interesting wording in the article about what the jacket represents.

Michael Jackson Lawsuit Accuses Doctor of Fueling MJ's Addiction 
Dr. Arnold Klein provided serious drugs to Michael Jackson, which left the singer so out of it ... he couldn't even stand up straight ... this according to a new lawsuit obtained by TMZ.
In the lawsuit, filed by Klein's former assistant and confidant Jason Pfeiffer -- it is alleged "Throughout 2009, Michael was a frequent patient of Klein." The lawsuit continues, "Several times, Klein told Pfeiffer to help Michael down to the car because Michael was too drugged up and disoriented to stand on his own."
Pfeiffer says he voiced his concern for Michael's "safety" -- because he and Klein's nurses "were worried that Michael was being 'overmedicated' by Klein." Pfeiffer says Klein simply told him to "keep his mouth shut."
And there's more -- Pfeiffer claims Klein tried to sneak Michael prescription muscle relaxers in 2009 by writing a prescription in Pfeiffer's name. Pfeiffer claims he refused to participate in the scheme.
Pfeiffer also claims in the suit ... sometime around October 2008, Klein was contacted by Michael Jackson, who told the doc he "needed 'to get out of a court appearance' and needed a doctor's note."
According to the suit, Klein told Michael he would take care of it and issued a note saying MJ was suffering from a Staph Infection ... based on a fabricated test.
Klein's treatment of MJ has been questioned in the past -- TMZ broke the story ... Klein injected Michael with 51 Demerol injections in the 3 months before Jackson died. Klein has always maintained that he treated Michael in accordance with the highest medical standards.
Pfeiffer claims he was wrongfully terminated by Klein -- and in the suit, filed Wednesday in Klein's ongoing bankruptcy case, Pfeiffer alleges that Klein forced him to help round up gay sex partners for Klein, including prostitutes and homeless people.
Pfeiffer also claims he would have to help "prepare" Klein for sexual encounters -- adding, "Klein required that Pfeiffer wash Klein's groin."
Pfeiffer says he suffers from severe emotional problems as a result of Klein's treatment -- and is suing for unspecified damages.
UPDATE: A lawyer of Klein tells TMZ, "Dr. Klein is one of the most esteemed and respected dermatologists in his profession in the country. This counter claim is totally unfounded, and frankly it's garbage. The claims in Dr. Klein's lawsuit are very serious, and we're taking them all the way."

Big Blow to Defense In MJ Manslaughter Trial
5 minutes ago by TMZ Staff
The judge in the Michael Jackson manslaughter trial just undercut a big part of the defense, by ruling 16 hours of rehearsal footage for the "This Is It" tour doesn't show MJ to be in poor health.
Dr. Conrad Murray's lawyers wanted the outtakes to prove Jackson was very ill in the days before his death. The argument goes -- he was already dying, so Dr. Murray can't be held responsible for his death.
But Judge Michael Pastor ruled ... the outtakes were valuable to Sony Pictures -- which objected to turning over the footage -- and the video did not show MJ in poor health.
If the hours of video show a healthy Michael, it undercuts a major line of defense for Murray.
Macaulay Culkin Does It 'My Way'
15 minutes ago by TMZ Staff
Macaulay Culkin hit up The Red Door Lounge in Billings, MT last night where he did a fantastic rendition of the classic song, "My Way" -- but did he do it as well as our own Harvey Levin did?
Now HL's version, slightly more produced and with the help of Paul Anka.
So the question is ...

Willow, Jaden & MJ's Kids -- Superstar Children Unite
17 minutes ago by Johnny Lopez
It was a meeting of the A-list celebuspawn as Michael Jackson's three kids (Paris, Prince and Blanket) hung out with Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith's children, Willow and Jaden Smith, on an L.A. film set the other day.
The Jackson kids arrived to the set with their grandmother, Katherine Jackson. So far, it's unclear if the kids were on the set to act ... or just to hang out with the Smiths.
As we previously reported, the Jackson kids have expressed a serious interest in Hollywood -- earlier this year, Prince told "Good Morning America" he was "looking at a couple of opportunities in show business ... mostly producing."

Katherine Jackson: I 'Can't Stand to Look' at Murray
1/25/2011 12:45 AM PST by TMZ Staff
Katherine Jackson says she "can't stand" the sight of Dr. Conrad Murray -- but she shows up to his court hearings anyway because of her undying love for her son Michael Jackson.
http://www.tmz.com/videos?autoplay=true&mediaKey=f3319c77-c800-444b-9e1d-0a2e67e2efd5
During a brief interview with ABC, Jackson also fired back at MJ's estate for suing her business partner Howard Mann ... saying "when they're suing Howard Mann, they're suing me."
Meanwhile, Dr. Murray is due in court this AM in L.A. to be arraigned on one charge of involuntary manslaughter ... so stay tuned for updates.

Mama Jackson's Partner: MJ Estate is a Dictatorship!
1/20/2011 4:21 PM PST by TMZ Staff
Katherine Jackson's business partner who is being sued by the Michael Jackson Estate tells TMZ the Estate is a "fraudulently obtained dictatorship," guarding "a collusive and corrupt status quo."
Howard Mann -- whom the Estate claims in a new lawsuit is violating copyright and trademark laws by cashing in on all things Jackson -- calls the lawsuit "malicious and unfounded."
Mann says, "These lawyers have absolutely NO interest in the preservation of Michael Jackson's legacy and less interest in generating revenues for his beneficiaries."
Mann goes on: "...the Estate will fall as a result of these draconian tactics and it is my hope that Miss Jackson regains control of that which was stolen from her."

'This Is It' Producer: I Didn't Cause Michael's Death
19 minutes ago by TMZ Staff
The producer/director of Michael Jackson's "This Is It" tour is scoffing at Katherine Jackson's wrongful death suit in which he's named as a defendant, because he had nothing to do with the drugs or treatment that caused the singer's death.
Kenny Ortega just filed legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- asking the court to remove him as a defendant in Katherine's suit, claiming, "Kenneth Ortega is not alleged to be involved in the medical treatment or administration of drugs that allegedly caused Michael Jackson's death."
Ortega's lawyer adds ... Kenny never had a contract with Dr. Conrad Murray or with Michael Jackson, nor has he had any official affiliation with AEG.
Ortega's lawyer says, "The naming of Kenneth Ortega as a defendant in this action, without any basis, without any substantive charging allegations against him, is a gross error."

Joe Jackson's Brazilian Babe Tour
12/2/2010 5:10 AM PST by TMZ Staff
When not compromising his wrongful death lawsuit against Dr. Conrad Murray in Brazil this week, Joe Jackson has been throwing back drinks and hangin' with pretty young things.
While Papa Joe is technically in South America on a book tour, he's spending more time promoting his smooth moves.
No word if Michael would have supported his mac daddy in these instances too.

Randy Jackson Goes Nuts Over Michael's Album
14 minutes ago by TMZ Staff
Randy Jackson went on a tear on Twitter Wednesday night, swearing some of the songs on Sony's upcoming Michael Jackson album are fake.
Jackson tweeted, "Some of the songs are him, and some aren't. I would be [sic] my life on that ... I know this may seem harsh, but this is the truth, as I know it..."
Pretty much every expert who has analyzed the tracks says the voice is MJ's, but Randy is undeterred.
And he gets conspiratorial: "But what's worse then [sic] harsh is that my brother isn't here, and ll these people are more concerned about making money off his death...They could care less about why and how he died, or maybe they already know."
Randy also claims co-executor John McClain "didn't care about the quality or how complete the vocals were."

MJ 'Hold My Hand' Video - Starring No-Handed Person
17 minutes ago by TMZ Staff
It's the most bizarre casting call we've ever seen -- the people behind Michael Jackson's new music video for "Hold My Hand" are in the market for some incredibly ironic talent ... a person with no hands.
The listing was posted yesterday on an LA casting network -- billed as a "low budget" project -- and among the available roles ... 10 dancers, several real-life couples, a mother and child for a baptism ... and "a disabled person with no hands."
The director Mark Pellington tells TMZ, "The video is a spiritual collage of MJ's legacy told through a visual mosaic exploring the themes of life" -- but based on the name of the song, we can only guess why they'd need someone without the requisite appendages.
We're told they shot Akon's part Monday night -- and according to sources close to the production, a green screen came in mighty handy.
:?After investigating this so long, does anybody else see references to the MJ hoax theories everywhere now?! :D
I don't watch much TV but one of my favorite shows is "Bones" on Fox TV. I wonder if a writer or producer there reads at these boards or is "in the know" about MJ. A couple weeks ago they had an episode about the possible government cover-up of the JFK assassination and a Michael Jackson reference at the beginning of the episode. This week they are investigating the corpse of a "hellboy" who has horns and a tail. Well they are led to a sanitarium by the name of Havenhurst of all things. lol I was doing something else and when they said Havenhurst my head snapped around so fast I think I might have given myself whiplash. :lol: Anyway the interweaving moral of the story is about evil... with a little bit of prejudices thrown in with their misunderstood intern who happens to be of the Muslim faith. I've read theories from JFK, NWO, and government corruption to the religious and racial theories. Now I see it everywhere, so I guess MJ did create more awareness. Anyway, everywhere I look now there are all these "MJ lessons" to be seen and I was just wondering if anyone else experiences the same thing or am I just off my rocker. :lol: It's so bad I even questioned the black and white checkered tile floor at Havenhurst and the diner Bones/Booth eat at. Guess I just answered my own question...I'm nuts! lol
L.O.V.E.
OMG, The new Bones episode about JFK cover up just referenced MJ. How weird is that?
