He housed him, fed him, chauffeured him and even imported jackson&#8217;s friends to Bahrain for a special Christmas in 2005.<\/font><font size=\"2\">All the prince wanted in return was to make a CD and start a record company with Michael. Jackson agreed, as usual signed agreements he had no intention of keeping and then did no work. You may recall Two Seas Records, the joint venture that Jackson agreed to, for example.<\/p>\n<p>Now the prince is demanding in his lawsuit that Michael go to work for him as agreed. Abdullah expects Jackson to make his record and put it out so the prince can begin to recoup the millions he invested in Michael during their friendship. Fat chance.<\/p>\n<p>Jackson hasn&#8217;t worked at anything in years \u2014 no performing, no recording. Occasionally, he announces that he is making some kind of record, but so far there&#8217;s no evidence of this.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mjstar.com\/forum\/viewtopic.php?t=963\" title=\"Discuss In Forum\">Discuss in MJSTAR Forum<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Fox<\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Roger Friedman is back, and this time he has news on a new lawsuit brought against Michael Jackson from former friend and business associate Sheik Abdullah bin Hamad Al Khalifa.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-77","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-michael-jackson-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
