Michael Jackson #115: The downfall of Conrad Murray.

quote:

Thumb MJ Tribute Concert Promoters -- Accused of Dodging $200,000 Bill ... For Plane Tickets The bills are starting to roll in for the Michael Jackson Tribute Concert in Wales last weekend -- and TMZ has learned, the organizers have already been accused of ducking a $200,000 tab ... for VIP plane tickets. A rep for the Entertainment Travel Company tells TMZ, Global Live -- the company behind the event -- hired Entertainment Travel to book plane tickets for the Jackson family, Christina Aguilera , her crew, Jamie Foxx , Heavy D , roughly 15 Global Live employees and others. GL allegedly racked up a $200,000 bill in the process -- which they were SUPPOSED to pay two weeks ago.

But Entertainment Travel Co. insists they haven't gotten a cent ... and now GL isn't even returning their phone calls. Several members of the Jackson family are scheduled to fly back to the U.S. this Sunday -- but Entertainment Travel is getting ready to play hardball ... telling TMZ, they're gonna cancel the Jacksons' tickets if GL doesn't pay up. The next step is a big, fat lawsuit. TMZ spoke with Global Live CEO Chris Hunt ... who tells us, "All bills are being reconciled and as they have been told, they will be completely paid in full."

Katherine Jackson is “livid” that Dr. Conrad Murray told cops two days after her beloved son, Michael Jackson died, that he provided solace to her and the singer's three children after the tragic death.

In fact, far from it, says the Jackson family matriarch, who claims that the embattled cardiologist made the whole thing up, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

Katherine Jackson called Deputy District Attorney David Walgren on Monday night, and told him that she was outraged that Dr. Murray made up such a preposterous tale.

"Katherine was almost beside herself with anger after she heard Dr. Murray telling cops that he comforted her and the grandchildren after her son was declared dead. it just never happened, Dr. Murray made the whole thing up. She is disgusted and outraged at Dr. Murray for even daring to suggest that he was there for her," a Jackson family insider tells RadarOnline.com.

Katherine Jackson's nephew, Trent Jackson told CNN's Alan Duke, that Michael's oldest son, Prince also says Dr. Murray never even spoke to the children.

According to Trent, the children were kept in an SUV outside of the UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Center and it was Michael's manger, Frank DiLeo that escorted the children into the emergency room after their grandmother arrived.

According to the official interview that Murray did with cops:

Dr. Murray: So we -- they brought her into a room down the hall. And I went in there with the emergency room physician who was treating him, whom I was with all the time through his code, and they broke the news to Mrs. Jackson. So the doctor started to tell that, you know her son came in and he was having difficulty breathing and they tried everything. And she said, "well how is he? He's not dead is he?" and the doctor said "yes," and she broke down. It was very -- and weeping. We stayed there, held her hand."

Dr. Murray then talked about how he went to another room where Jackson's three children were, and told them their father had died.

Transcript from the interview:

Dr. Murray: They asked questions, and the children found out that daddy wasn't doing well, that he had passed away. And then they were weeping, really weeping...after they cried and cried and then his daughter uttered a lot of words of unhappiness, and you know she will live alone without her dad and she didn't want to be an orphan...She cried and was very stark. And then she asked to see him. And then that was another thing. How do you let children see him? I asked them to prepare Mr. Jackson's body, make it as presentable as possible, because I recommended an autopsy be performed, so that the children would be able to view their daddy and have them say good-bye to him at this time."

The source says that when Katherine apprised Prince of what had happened in court on Monday, he was more steadfast and determined than ever to take the stand for the prosecution.

"Katherine tells Michael's two oldest children, Prince and Paris what has happened in court everyday. Blanket is just too young to comprehend it, and doesn't ask questions. Prince was mortified when Katherine apprised him of what happened,” the Jackson insider told RadarOnline.com. “He is begging his grandmother to let him take the stand. The decision will be up to David Walgren though.

“Right now, its a 50/50 chance that Prince could take the stand. Prince doesn't want the jurors to feel sympathy for Dr. Murray, and felt that was the reason he made up the entire story about what happened at the hospital. The DA will assess the need to put Prince on the stand, after the defense rests it's case.

Nou, als het waar is dat Murray dat toen verzonnen heeft, kan ik me goed voorstellen dat de familie laaiend is Lijkt me erg om te horen hoor, als dat helemaal niet zo gegaan is.

Inderdaad! En ik kan heel goed begrijpen dat Prince dat wil rechtzetten, hij kan en wil hiermee ook een soort van laatste eer aan zijn paps bewijzen!

Heb zo'n medelijden met die die kinderen

Ik vind dat ze het zoooo goed doen, de kinderen. Michael heeft ze echt een goede basis mee gegeven. Zo'n lof daarvoor Het is alleen...Blanket is nog wat jong, en heeft het idd niet makkelijk denk ik....

Dat zeker te weten, dat ze het goed doen! MJ. zit te glunderen vanaf zijn wolkje, hij is trots!!

Ergens hoop ik niet dat Prince gaat getuigen, ik zie die advocaten van Murray er wel voor aan om niet zachtzinnig met hem om te gaan...

Ik zie het i.d.d. al voor me....De aanklager zal wel een inschatting maken of hij het aankan of niet.

Denk niet dat de advocaten het aandurven om een kind aan te vallen in de rechtbank. Dat toont niet goed tov de jury en de rest vd wereld.

Ja erg heh Is een foto van het tribute concert dat afgelopen week gegeven werd. Hij stond voluit op het podium en schijnt een traantje te laten omdat hij zich versprak tijdens een aankondiging met Prince en Paris. Heb hem op mijn mobiel heel scherp...kon die online niet vinden helaas.

Blijkbaar is er afgelopen vrijdag toch een of andere hearing geweest volgens CNN. En er is volgens het artikel een kans dat er morgen geen hearing is, maar dinsdag pas weer.

Ja, Paris verbeterde hem nog even. Zielugggg! En dan had hij nog niet eens het vooruitzicht van een Joseph die hem backstage met een riem stond op te wachten.

Neeeeee.

Vanmiddag was My Life as a Dog op tv. Ik vond het wel een leuke film en ging een beetje lezen wat de acteur verder nog gedaan had, lees ik dit: He is also known for being friends with Michael Jackson, who contacted him in 1987 after being impressed with his performance in My Life as a Dog. Even gegoogled:

Former friend "in shock" after receiving the news of Jackson's death.



In 1988, Michael Jackson contacted the then 14-year old star of "My life as a dog" Anton Glanzelius. He remembers the day they spent together at Liseberg, the largest amusement park in Scandinavia. The park was closed to the general public for the sake of Jackson and his friends' privacy. The news of Jackson's death came as a shock for now 35 year old Glanzelius.

"I couldn't believe it at first. When it was confirmed, I was shocked. It was so strange that it happened so close to his tour and his comeback," Glanzelius tells Göteborgsposten.

Anton Glanzelius met Michael Jackson for the first time when he was 13. Jackson had seen the movie "My life as a dog", directed by Lasse Hallström and with Glanzelius as the leading star, and had enjoyed it so much he invited the boy to his home Neverland. Michael had seen the movie twice, the second time with his mother. The movie was very special to him but Jackson' never revealed why or what the movie meant to him, to Anton. As a 13 year old growing up in southern Gothenburg, he had no idea who Michael Jackson was.

"I ran to the neighbors' house and asked them if they had any records with Michael Jackson. I wanted to see what he looked like." Anton arrived in Neverland along with his mother. They spent a couple of hours in Jackson's company but they did not get to know each other that well that time. Anton remembers that Jackson was very polite.

" I remember walking around and meeting his Llama and a giant snake. Then he went to wake Bubbles up and brought him downstairs. Bubbles was wearing a red t-shirt and a diaper and he shook my hand. I thought it was more strange to meet a chimpanzee than Michael Jackson," he says. "He had a room filled with candy and I ate as much as I wanted."

Glanzelius explains that he was probably too young to realize the greatness of his friendship with the popstar. "As a child, you have a different perspective," he says. Anton Glanzelius describes his friend as "very kind-hearted and humble". On stage he was an artist who influenced the world. In private, he was very shy. "He was a very ordinary guy who lived an extreme life from early on."

When Jackson came to Gothenburg in 1989, he contacted Glanzelius. "It was such an amazing and fun experience as a 14-year old to have the entire Liseberg to ourselves." Glanzelius remembers that they rode the rollercoaster "Loopen", Michael's favourite ride in the park, a dozen times. "He was laughing constantly, we had so much fun."

The marketing director of Liseberg, Pelle Johansson, had been working the first half of -89 to bring Jackson to the amusement park. Jackson was going to hold a concert at Erikberg, Gothenburg, and the owners of Liseberg saw their chance to put the amusement park on the map. They made hundreds of phonecalls and sent letters to Jackson and his managers, but it was still uncertain whether he was going to show up.

"We didn't think it would actually work. The huge media coverage made it hard for him to even leave the hotel and get here," Johansson says. Jackson arrived with his friend Glanzelius and a company of approximately 100 people. "We closed the park and they were able to move as they pleased in the park without any photographers or journalists. The only thing we asked in return was his handprint."

The roofs were filled with photographers trying to get a picture of the smiling Jackson. The visit lasted 3-4 hours. Jackson and Glanzelius also rode the bumper cars, which he really enjoyed, Glanzelius tells Göteborgsposten. "He was fooling around and laughing and we were chasing each other trying to get a hit. He was such a sweet, humble, warm and lovely person."

Glanzelius also spent the evening in Jackson's bedroom, watching movies and eating candy."I tried to make him show a few moves but he wouldn't, he was so shy! He said that it was different to perform in front of 50 000 people. We talked about everything from football and fame, to girls and love," he says. "It was impossible for me to understand what it was like to be a superstar in the US, I was just 14 years old. I probably asked him some really stupid questions," he laughs.

The last time they met was in 1992 in Stockholm. They kept in touch via letters and Jackson often sent him packages with presents and videos. "We were pretty close but then we just lost contact, I don't remember why," he says. Glanzelius remembers Jackson with fondness, and is in shock to hear the news of the star's death. "It's so devastating. I don't want to believe it. It's not ok, he was just 50 years old, it's way too soon."

Glanzelius now works as a TV-producer and is no longer acting.

Niet weten wie MJ is als 'ie je uitnodigt, pfft.

Lees net dat Murray's advocaten 3 experts hebben opgeroepen en een dozijn aan ex-patienten. Dat zal wat worden.

ABC heeft gisteravond gemeld dat er vandaag geen court is. Dinsdag weer.

Bedankt! Handig om te weten.

Volgens de twitter van de journalisten die in de zaal zitten morgen ook geen hearing:

Another delay in #MurrayLA trial: Defense wants more info on new coroner's test re: lorazepam. No testimony before jury till Wednesday

Als het maar niet zo ver wordt uitgesteld dat de uitspraak straks komt als ik op vakantie ben. Ik wil het niet missen!

Nu kunnen we wel weer even lekker bijslapen, het hakte er wel in bij mij die late nachten!

Dat hoop ik voor je, dat er niet meer vertraging komt!

Bij mij ook, je zit toch vaak tegen beter weten in tot 1.00 uur op, en dan 's morgens reuze moe opstaan

Waarom nou weer vertragingen?

Vandaag geen hearing voor de jury omdat getuige dr. Shafer zijn vader is overleden, en hij daarmee bezig is.
Maar wat je kan merken is dat de advocaten wel gewoon aanwezig zijn.
Morgen geen hearing voor de jury omdat:

Het gaat dus om de hoeveelheid lorazepam die is gevonden.

Volgens de twitter van de journalisten is dit het.
