The New York Post is reporting that Michael Jackson is shuffling his kids from friends’ house to friends’ house since he can no longer afford his own home.
The nearly broke one-time King of Pop has been relying on the kindness of friends to put a roof over his head and the heads of his three kids, now that he’s been booted from several other residences he “rented” in Las Vegas and Washington, DC.
On the verge of losing his sprawling Neverland Ranch as his bank account spirals toward zero, the sad-sack artist and his three kids, Prince, Paris and Blanket, spent last week at the Beverly Hills home of his longtime friend, babe-chasing supermarket billionaire Ron Burkle, a source told Page Six.
“The whole family has been hiding out. They were holed up in Burkle’s place behind the Beverly Hills Hotel,” said our spy. “They even refused to come out of their rooms and hid when Burkle had guests over.”
It’s hard to blame them. Jackson, once one of the richest pop stars in the world, remains in default on a $23 million loan against his ranch after years of mishandling his once-enormous fortune. Before he hit up Burkle for a free place to stay, he spent three months living in a private home in Franklin Lakes, NJ.
Sources told Fox News’ Roger Friedman the Gloved One showed up on the doorstep of Dominick and Connie Cascio in mid-August and stayed through the first week in November, when he split for Los Angeles to attend Rev. Jesse Jackson’s birthday party. Jacko has had a long association with the Cascios, having met Dominick in the mid-’80s when the latter worked for the Helmsley Palace Hotel.
The problem here, besides the fact that Jacko is a leech, is that his kids have no stability and no schooling. There has been speculation that Jackson prefers the transient life because without a home in a specific state, no authorities can investigate why his kids wear masks and burkas, or why they don’t have a stable home or why they don’t seem to attend school. Plus without a state to call home, no one has the authority to check his sanity No one is even sure there’s a tutor on the payroll since Michael Jackson doesn’t seem to have much money these days.
I think it is an American tradition to ridicule it’s own especially when they are black. Look at what the likes of Mike Tyson, Michael Jackson, Kobe Bryant, R Kelly and Wesley Snipes.
They are all accused of something or another, Michael Jackson is asset rich and might have cash flow problems but he is far from being poor.
