Katherine Jackson's Partner -- My Bad!

17 minutes ago by TMZ Staff  

Howard Mann, Katherine Jackson's business partner in JacksonSecretVault.com, screwed up royally and he knows it -- and now he's reaching out to all Michael Jackson fans to say he's sorry.

Mann published a Jackson song on his website that was touted as an "unreleased MJ track" that came with the blessing of Katherine. As we previously reported ... it was neither of those things.

Mann knows that now, and in a letter to TMZ, apologizes for his "act of stupidity and random ignorance." Mann says he had no idea the track he thought was called "Opis None" was really just a version of an old track called "Destiny."

Near the end, Mann writes, "Our goal at JacksonSecretVault.com is to pay tribute to the legendary artist and artistic visionary that was and is Michael Jackson. The fans are entitled to a higher level of integrity then I demonstrated this past weekend and for that I am sorry."

What's with this Howard Mann, maybe it's me but i've searched on google, all the pictures i've got where mostly Katherine, Michael, and one picture of Kat and Howard like the picture on TMZ.
I searched for information on Howard but could'nt find anything.(only a lot of Lawyers under that name)
My first feeling was that there was something stange about that picture on TMZ, it's in the eyes, it remind me of the Mayor of the Ghost video......maybe i'm going nuts :?

If you are nuts, we all are. It's a possibility, ANYTHING can be done with makeup, most definitely of your name is Michael Jackson.

I'd also thought he could be an actor or MJ in disguise, he does have very smooth skin and I know that was mentioned in the thread about prosthetics.  And he has very dark eyes in that pic.  We're questioning everyone involved in this now, more confusion, which is exactly the intention... We'll see if Katherine fires him or not, if she doesn't I'll be even more suspicious that he's a "character" in all this and he has a further part to play.

Maybe we can make a threat with all the "suspicious" people, like the MJ casket man, conrad Murray speech picture,the Howard mann, the Mayor and probable many others
We can compare them easier then.
I'm getting progress with the posting, but i still can't manage to post pictures.
Maybe somebody can explaine how to do that.

All for L.O.V.E

Sounds like 'damage control'... maybe that Michael did not expect such reactions towards his mom?

I wanted to take this opportunity to sincerely apologize to the Jackson family,
his fans and to TMZ for my act of both ignorance and random stupidity this
past weekend!
Our goal in releasing” Opis None” was simply to satiate fans appetite for
unreleased MJ music and to provide a vocal that the world could believe
strongly was an authentic MJ vocal, when in reality the song turned out to be
solely a remake or remix of an old Jackson track titled “Destiny”. The MJ fans
pointed this out within 15 seconds of the track going live, however the damage
was done.
For the record: At no point in time did Mrs. Jackson give me permission to
release the track or frankly did she even hear the track in the first place. That
stupidity was ALL ME. We grabbed the track from a series of masters we own
and researched the title and found no listed release titled “Opis None” in the MJ
releases and I felt it sounded like such a weird track for an MJ song, the fans
would get a kick out of it. I certainly did not expect fans to become enraged
with Miss Jackson about the track as it was given away for free and was not
intended as a commercial product.
Mrs. Jackson is a sweet, kind and giving person, much like her son Michael
Jackson was known to the world. As his loving mother, she was bar none his
biggest fan. Our goal at JacksonSecretVault.com is to pay tribute to the
legendary artist and artistic visionary that was and is Michael Jackson. The fans
are entitled to a higher level of integrity then I demonstrated this past weekend
and for that I am sorry.
When the world sees Mrs. Jackson on Oprah tomorrow, they will see a
devastated mother trying her best to both grieve the loss and also to celebrate
the life of her iconic son. I hope the fans will not hold my stupidity against her,
as she is a truly quality woman who has certainly been through enough!
Humbly,
Howard Mann

We love you Katherine.    I don't know why but this sounds like Michael wrote that letter for me.

Wow, I think you're on to something. I'm ready to burst out laughing if this is true! The eyes again have it.

Such a long list of guys with the same eyes.

[bleu eyes]

Mjonmind, thank you for post the pictures, you can see it much clearer now.

L.O.V.E

[MJonmind]

You're welcome! Just makes you wonder how many more we've missed. :?  8-)

 :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

MJ was in that song  just not main singer

[trustno1]

OMG thanks for posting all the pictures, it's so much easier to see the similarities between all these "guys" now.  And you're right we could've missed so many of them because the prosthetics are so convincing.  The eyes have it for sure.  He could've used coloured ccntacts but chose not to because it's one thing we would all identify with him, those eyes.
