Michael Jackson Sexual Abuse Cases Revealed

Michael Jackson Sexual Abuse Cases Revealed
Los Angeles – Nearly six months after Michael Jackson death, finally FBI release secret document concerning Michael Jackson sexual harassment cases to the public.

Then on September 2003, an investigator from the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) and Santa Barbara Sheriff’s Office arrived in Philippines to talk with two former Michael Jackson employees.

Both of them are the men who reported seeing their former boss’s Michael Jackson conducted a sexual abuse to some boys.

The involvement of FBI in this case is because LAPD asked about the possibility interstate cases. There are allegations that Michael Jackson was sent interstate boys for immoral purposes.

This matter brought by the FBI to Attorney General’s office, but denied because the allegations were not true. “An FBI agent accompanied the California authorities to make interview. He served only to make sure there would be no problem,”.

Michael Jackson documents dated 1992 to 2005 were stored the FBI barn. But U.S. mainstream media, Associated Press (AP) know about the document. So they demanded the release of Michael Jackson documents through the Freedom of Information Act. AP also received support from other media, especially after Michael’s death on June 25.

The FBI said that the original document have 679 pages. But they could not release all document because there are some Michael Jackson privacy on the document.

Moreover, the status is as one of high profile cases. But the real media spotlight on this matter is FBI’s involvement in Michael Jackson sexual abuse case.

When Michael Jackson sexual harassment cases take place, the FBI’s role was not seen. Public only see that Michael Jackson only dealing with the police during the trial.

THE ARTFUL DODGER BECOMES SEXY: The Rise Of Clive Owen

Clive Owen reportedly fell about laughing when Angelina Jolie told him that he looked sexy in “Beyond Borders”. This may have been news to the actor who used to be a big fan of David Bowie and changed his hair color every time the singer did. But the green-eyed, darkly handsome, very British actor attracts women audiences to every film, including the very scary “Derailed”, his latest movie.

“Derailed”, about a happily married man who begins an affair with a beautiful, young woman he meets on a train only to find out all may not be as it appears, is Owen ’s latest movie. The complicated character he plays in this film is the kind of part that he prefers because he ‘has never been interested in playing good guys. I’m always attracted to dangerous characters. Those roles are usually far more interesting and I hold no fears about doing them…’ (Clive Owen quoted at AllMoviePortal.com)

This film caused controversy when Anniston claimed that she was covered in bruises after her steamy, sex scenes with Owen, but Owen denies this. In an article by Jack Ryan at The Post Chronicle website (November2, 2005) Anniston reportedly said that she didn’t mind, describing Owen as ‘dreamy’ to work with. He had nothing but praise for her, admiring her courage in handling her divorce from Brad Pitt.

Owen who comes from Coventry, England aimed to be an actor ever since playing the Artful Dodger in a school play but. according to his biography on the IMDB database, a teacher told him that: “You’re a working-class boy from Coventry. What do you know?”

His rise to fame after attending the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art began with classical parts on the stage and he joined the Young Vic Theatre Company where he met his wife, Sarah Jane Fenton, who played Juliet to his Romeo. They now have two daughters: Hannah and Eve. Although he’d had an extensive stage and film career in England by his late 30’s he was still little-known in America. His big chance came in “Croupier”, in which he played a struggling writer working as a casino employee who is taken in by a female scam artist. Robert Altman, impressed by the actor’s performance, asked him to join his all-star movie, “Gosford Park” and Owen’s career has shot ahead ever since with starring roles in “King Arthur” and “Closer”.

Owen’s latest role is in the brilliant director Spike Lee’s “Inside Man” in which he plays a bank robber and hostage taker. His co-star is Jodie Foster. Owen loved spending time in New York while the movie was filmed, which he said in an article on the Star Pulse website (Starpulse News Blog: 03/13/06) is “the best city in the world and the capitol of the world…There’s so much to do and never enough time to do it.” If it weren’t for his daughters, Owen would like to move to New York.

The gorgeous actor’s career appears to be going from success to success. His next role is likely to be Essex alongside Cate Blanchett in a new movie about Queen Elizabeth 11 . This swashbuckling character who won the heart of the flame-haired, young queen is likely to suit the actor who likes to play ‘dangerous roles’.

Nollywood Movie Updates

All over the world, artistes are generally regarded as eccentric people, except for a few of them who are predictable, based on their individual lifestyles and quality of work. It is also generally believed that only a few of them can manage stardom with humility.

In fact, majority of them are usually perceived by the quality of their works while some of them easily become controversial either through their lyrics or messages.

With these factors, artistes tend to exhibit certain behavioral patterns that can either make or mar their career as singers or role models.

Just recently, the music industry was awash with the controversial contract involving popular telecom giant, Globacom and hip hop singer, Oladapo Oyebanji better known as D’ banj.

It would be recalled that the management of Glo deemed it fit to select, promote and empower a number of popular artistes as its worthy ambassadors. Of all the selected stars including Sammy Okposo, Ego of the Lagbaja fame, Madam Kofo, Jimi Johnson, among others, D’banj stood out of the lot and was more recognized. This for him, translated into more cash and shows. He was paid an upfront sum that ran into several millions of naira, offered a land cruiser jeep, among other endorsements.

After performing in a number of shows out of a total of 18 earlier slated for him by Globacom, D’banj who is the rave of the moment unexpectedly demanded an increment of his remuneration from N2million per show to N4million naira, a condition which Globacom could not meet and for which it nearly cancelled the contract with D’banj.

But for his remorseful mien and the understanding of the Globacom boss, D’banj could have been dropped from the list but Globacom promptly replaced him (for the mega shows) with his close rival in the industry, P-Square and barred him from performing in any of Glo shows until further notice. D’banj nevertheless remains one of the company’s ambassadors.

Among scores of popular acts in the country, D’banj had earned great fame and fortune since coming into limelight a couple of years back. Although he started courting controversy when he was invited by Zain to perform free of charge at Nelson Mandela’s birthday in London, the Ogun State born artiste refused and insisted on being paid.

This refusal then forced Zain to replace him with another singer, 9ice, who not only performed but also returned home with cash and material gifts.

But D’banj is not the only artiste who has been so mired in controversy following certain demands. Popular Afro-pop act, Tuface Idibia who, after the success of his runaway hit song, African Queen, was also contracted by another telecom giant, MTN, on performing tour of some selected towns, tagged Tuface and Friends. However, Idibia’s case was not lined to alleged greed but conduct. He was reported to have thrown caution to the winds when he allegedly smoked marijuana or weed (a banned substance) openly during one of his shows, which drew the ire of the telecom outfit. Among other endorsement was the use of his picture on MTN recharge cards and billboards but that singular act of his reportedly jettisoned the mouth watery deal with the communication company.

A few years ago too, Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji became the face of Lux having been paid millions of naira as contractual fee. But when Nnaji was to renew the contract with Lever Brothers, it was alleged that she demanded for more money like Oliver Twist following the fame and fortunes the endorsement brought to her. The contract was cancelled and the company vowed never to use Nollywood stars as its ambassadors any longer.

On a similar note, rap artiste, Eedris Abdulkareem once had a duel with the American superstar, 50Cent, when both artistes were slated for performance in Abuja. But while traveling to Abuja inside the aircraft. Abdukareem rudely challenged 50Cent, who was seated in the business class segment and insisted he too was qualified for the same segment. It was however discovered later that both artistes had different contractual agreements with their host, Nigerian Breweries Plc.

Following the dust raised by his behaviour, Abdulkareem earned an indefinite ban from both PMAN and Nigerian Breweries Plc, and this affected the musician’s career as he was not being featured by music promoters until recently when he released Last Man Standing, which is now making waves in some quarters.

Recently, the unprofessional behaviour of the duo of Naeto C and Ikechukwu in Imo State, during the Ichu Afo music concert, which held on December 31, 2008, did not augur well with fans.

They blatantly refused to go for Sound Check, prior to the main show, and deliberately kept all the other artistes who, were already at the venue, waiting for several hours. Not even the pleas from Okey Bakassi, the coordinator of the event, could assuage them. They eventually did not turn up, even when the other acts moving in a convoy to the venue for same mission, berthed at their hotel. They arrogantly stormed the show with gun totting policemen and that wrong move eventually affected their very poor and dry performance at the concert proper.

Since many of these young stars are seen as role models in society, some observers have said they should be cautious in sending wrong signals to the younger artistes who are trailing them behind. Some music critics also urged musicians to dissuade from the habit of discouraging multinationals that are making frantic efforts to encourage and support showbiz.

The critics also asked young talented singers who need corporate sponsorship to always demonstrate maturity and sincerity especially when entering into contracts with their promoters. They were equally cautioned on the use of vulgar and indecent lyrics, which can easily corrupt their audience, particularly the youths and children.

Celebrity Baby Names

Celebrities are not like everyday people. They have busy schedules, drive expensive cars, and wear jewelry that others can only dream of owning. Maybe it is because celebrities are so far removed from normal life that they often give their babies unusual names.

Some names are just a little different. John Travolta and Kelly Preston have two beautiful children. Their daughter’s name is Ella Bleu. Their son’s name is Jett. Jett is different, but anyone who knows anything about John Travolta knows he has a love for flying. Gwyneth Paltrow, pregnant again, came under scrutiny for naming her first child Apple. While it is unusual, it is somewhat cute, like in the “apple of their eye.” Chris Martin, her husband, tired of the controversy over the name Apple, has jokingly stated their second child, whether male or female, will be named Banana. Another cute name is Dandelion, the name of Keith Richards’ daughter. Julie Roberts recently gave birth to twins – a boy and a girl – and received flack over the names she chose. She received almost as much grief over the choice for her daughter’s name, Hazel, as she did the more eccentric choice of Phinnaeus for her son.

Many people speculated what Madonna would name her first child. Lourdes Maria seems a fitting name for child who’s mother’s name is Madonna, but she often goes by Lola. Her son is named Rocco, which sounds a bit like a cartoon character, but at least it is a tough sounding name. Actor Casey Affleck and fiancé Summer Phoenix recently had a son named Indiana August, which leads one to wonder what state and month their son was conceived in. Toni Braxton has two sons, Denim and Diezel. While both useful products, they make somewhat strange names for children. Rob Marrow decided it would be cute if he named his daughter Tu Simone Ayer, calling her Tu Morrow. Wonder if she will think it is cute 20 years from now? Actor Jason Lee named his son Pilot Inspektor, but magician Penn Jillette may have topped them all. He named his daughter, Moxie Crimefighter, saying “because when she’s pulled over for speeding she can say, `But officer, we’re on the same side, my middle name is CrimeFighter.”‘

If you think it is a new trend, think again. Back in 1971, David Bowie and his then wife Angela decided to name their son Duncan Zowie Heywood Jones. He soon became known as Zowie Bowie. Cher named her children Chastity Sun and Elijah Blue.

The Phoenix family is well known for their unusual choice of baby names. Summer Phoenix’s siblings are the late actor River Phoenix, actresses Rain and Liberty Phoenix and actor Joaquin Phoenix. Joaquin felt his name was so out of place with his siblings, that when he was four, he decided to change his name to Leaf. By the early 1990’s, he had reverted back to using his birth name. Another family infamous for their choices of baby names is the Zappa family. Frank’s children are Dweezil, Moon Unit, Ahmed Emuukha Rodan and Diva Muffin. While many people think that Dweezil is his given name, his birth name was originally Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa because the hospital refused to register the name Dweezil. Always called Dweezil, when he was a child, he wanted to make the name official and his parents took him to have it changed legally. Paula Yates, former wife of Sir Bob Geldof and girlfriend of late rocker Michael Hutchence, also had a knack for giving her children unusual names. Among her brood are Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa, Heavenly Hiraani Tigerlily, and Little Pixie.

Some celebrity baby names make sense if you know the story behind them. Eurythmic’s Dave Stewart named his son Django after jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt. Stevie Wonder named his son Mandla Kadjaly Carl Stevland, however Mandla means “powerful” in Zulu and Kadjaly means “born from God” in Swahili. Helen Hunt just gave birth to a baby girl she named Makena’lei Gordon. The name Makena’lei is from a friend’s dream and means “many flowers of heaven.” Gordon, an unlikely girl’s name, was to honor of Helen’s father, television director Gordon Hunt. Nicolas Cage just named his new baby boy Kal-el. Because Nicolas took his stage name of Cage from comic book character Luke Cage, he decided to name his son Kal-el after one of his favorite comic book heroes. Kal-el is Superman’s kryptonian name.

So, do the children like these unconventional names given them by their parents? In some cases, they do. The Phoenix’s seem to love their nature-inspired names and the Zappa children seem to have had no ill effects from their eccentric names. However, some children tire of the peculiar names quickly. Zowie Bowie had had enough of his moniker by the time he was 12 and asked to be referred to as “Joey.” Although Dandelion Richards does not seem too bad, she has since started referring to herself as Angela. Recently, Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa Geldof has been the most outspoken about the odd choice her parents made in naming her. She has been quoted as saying, “I hate ridiculous names. My weird name has haunted me all my life.”

While having an unusual name might be difficult for any child, the celebrity of a child’s parents may enhance it even further. Thankfully, celebrity children who decide they don’t like their given names can switch to a nickname or even eventually have their names legally changed.

Big Brother 7 – Week One

The housemates have been banged up in the lunatic asylum that is the Big Brother house and one will be leaving this weekend. Here are the “first impressions” of the housemates during their short stint as reality TV stars thus far.

Pete Bennett
Win Odds: 11/10
Since falling down the stairs to enter the house and being asked if he was “on something” by Bonnie, Pete has emerged as the favourite to win and at present looks unstoppable. The Tourette’s sufferer is genuine, funny and at the moment is liked by all the housemates despite him not joining one of the two “camps”. It’s early days yet but Pete will be odds on to win within the next few days.

George Askew
Win Odds: 16/1
George has not come to the forefront as yet in that he has not paired off with one of the female housemates nor has he done anything to rile anyone else. He has bonded with Mikey and appears to be part of the “in crowd” for the time being at least and should be safe for a few weeks yet.

Mikey Dalton
Win Odds: 16/1
Mikey has emerged from the shadows this week and has taken over the mantle as the leader of the “Big Brotherhood” following Shabaz’s exit. He has also paired up with Grace and has formed an alliance with George. Originally thought to be quite a boring housemate, Mikey looks to have done enough to stick around until the latter stages.

Richard Newman
Win Odds: 16/1
With Shabaz gone, Richard looks set to revel as the “only gay in the village”. He sees himself as a father figure to the group and looks set to battle Sezar for the role of alpha male. He has found friends in Lea and Nikki but may find his position in the house precarious after some of the weaker members of the group are picked off.

Nikki Graham
Win Odds: 20/1
Given that Nikki’s pre-entrance video suggested she wanted to find love in the house, she hasn’t made any effort to pair up with any of the available men in the house, preferring to find comfort in gay Richard. Nikki may adopt the role of “baby” in the group due to her childlike behaviour despite being older than six other housemates and showed during the infamous “bottled water” scene she could explode into fits of tantrums should she not get her own way. Despite being part of the London nightclub circuit scene, she has not formed alliances with Sezar, Imogen, Grace or George and is in danger of finding herself an early casualty if her behaviour irritates the others.

Lisa Huo
Win Odds: 20/1
Lisa is the other leader of the “Big Brotherhood” but could also find herself in a precarious position when she is eligible to be voted out of the house. She has found a friend in Pete but her laddish behaviour, coarse language and chainsmoking could grate on the other housemates when they are looking for reasons to nominate people for eviction.

Imogen Thomas
Win Odds: 20/1
Before entering the house Imogen said she would “make all the boys fancy her” and she has certainly done that. She shared a kiss with Sezar after three days and appears to revel in stringing him along. Should he grow bored of her and if she wanted to score points off Grace, Imogen could also move on to Mikey who described her as “beautiful”. Bar a short interaction in Welsh, she has failed to bond with fellow countryman Glyn, preferring the company of the London social set.
