Deluded old woman sues for $40 billion


Some of you may instantly recognise this pleasant looking older lady. For those of you who do not, this woman is called Katherine Jackson. Yes, that's it! she's the mother of the late Micheal, and the rest of the clan. Well, over the many years this long suffering granny (I'm sorry Mrs Jackson...) who is perhaps the behind the scenes matriarch has lead a somewhat quiet and low key role within the somewhat peculiar world of the Jackson's. Mrs Jackson, I surmise, watched with pleasure and pride as her brood of microphone headed boys went on to be world superstars. Then one of them decided he wanted to be white and subsequently became probably the greatest ever performer. Janet did her thing as well, and La Toya, was on celebrity Big Brother UK. Anyway, it turns out that the crazy virus has finally caught up with sweet old momma. The reports are that she is attempting to sue AEG Live for a whopping $40 billion. Yes, 40 BILLION. I know I am stating the obvious here, but that is a lot of money.

According to news sources, $10 billion of the money this lady wants is for her grandchildren. This is because their daddy would have made mega bucks from 'that' tour and other future tours that he was planning to do before he died. The quantity for 'his kids' (still dubious about that) would have amounted to that of $10billion. How they work that out I do not know. Also, part of the $40 billion compensation is due to AEG for hiring shifty Doctor Conrad Murray. That sucker basically got the blame for killing MJ. Involuntary manslaughter they called it, and that just isn't cool.

So, AEG are not happy about an old lady demanding such a ludicrous sum of money. They are saying that MJ's career was on the way down anyway and basically Mrs Jackson can take a hike. (Get your boots and gear on lady). But, I know that if Katherine is anything - she is most certainly resilient. The wife of an original gangster like Joe Jackson has to be. She has her grand children's best interests at heart (so she claims), but from the bling around her neck, I don't know. Well, swiftly moving on she wants the best for Paris, Prince and Blanket - which obviously equates to billions of dollars.

Time will tell if this shrewd grandma will get her paws on nearly anything like the amount she probably decided she wanted after waking up from a hearty afternoon nap. If she is successful, then take it from me that the world has officially gone that bit more bonkers.
