Trouble In Paradise?
Michael Jackson is about to embark on what may be the biggest tour ever. But the struggle for power in the Jackson camp could lead to a major disaster.
BY MICHAEL GOLDBERG AND CHRISTOPHER CONNELLY

Still, there is Joe Jackson. Though he has not sought a new management contract with his sons, he continues to be closely involved with their careers. In fact, it was Joe who encouraged the Jacksons to work with boxing promoter Don King. But why King? As Branca himself says, ”You’re taking the number-one artist in the world; you would normally want somebody who has some experience in the music business.” Why Don King?

Biggie Smalls would have said 'You Dead Wrong'
An MTV REPORT. Eminem isn’t making a fan out of Michael Jackson with his new video, which pokes fun at the embattled pop star. The singer has asked video channels to stop playing “Just Lose It,” and BET has since pulled the clip out of rotation.
In the video, Eminem riffs on several Jackson-related themes, from an opening routine reminiscent of “Billie Jean,” to a joke about the 1985 incident in which the singer’s hair caught on fire during the filming of a Pepsi ad. Wearing prosthetic makeup to look like Jackson, Eminem also targets the singer’s molestation scandal by sitting on a bed with boys dancing around him.
