Jackson's Manager Tells All!
Filed under: Michael Jackson
One of the people closest to Michael Jackson, his manager and business advisor Dr. Tohme Tohme, has opened up publicly about the passing his late friend.
And he won't stop yapping!
Although Dr. Tohme has been subjected to media scrutiny, he wants the public to realize that he's not a total skeezeball, rather he is a "private man." He says: "A lot of people like the media and I don't. I respect the privacy of other people but lately nobody respects mine."
Enough of Dr. Tohme, onto the good stuff!
Tohme first met Michael to discuss the King of Pop's finances but slowly grew closer to the pop legend. "I saw him with his children and I had never seen a better father… I saw how kind he was and what a wonderful human being," the doctor gushed.
He tried to set up a protective "fence" around Jackson in order to keep control of his finances, which included firing numerous staff members, security guards, and nanny Grace Rawaramba. "We had an agreement… I would never interfere with his creative decisions and he wouldn't interfere with my business decisions," continued Tohme.
Tohme was completely taken aback by Jackson's death, recalling that Michael appeared to be in perfect health when he saw him two days before his passing at the Staples Center rehearsal. He said that Jackson always ate healthy, never touched red meat or alcohol and to his knowledge never took drugs, although that would now appear to be devastatingly untrue.
"He wanted to be remembered as a great human being and he wanted to create as many happy places for the children of the world as he could," said Tohme. He said that over the past few months, both he and Michael had been planning to create "a special place ten times bigger than Graceland" for fans to take a peek at his numerous awards and memorabilia.
And yes, Tohme is upset that the family has not decided to bury Jackson at Neverland Ranch! "He deserves to be buried in the wonderful world he created."
It's where he belongs, right?

Re: JigSaw – u said that right….#1….
fucking first!!!!!!!!!!
he sounds just as nuts
"He deserves to be buried in the wonderful world he created."
Where he molested young men?
if he always ate healthy why was his stomach full of pills and no food when they did the autopsy.
Love u mj
RIP xxxx
Is he ignorant of the laws or what? You can't bury people on private property in California.
Of course they want him buried at Neverland. They want some of that Graceland money like Elvis's family got for putting him on display.
I think his family should have buried him in neverland as well coz it was his perfect fantasy world since he was the living peter pan - his utopia and sanctuary…so let him lie and rest in peace there!

This guy is deluded or a complete liar. MJ's business strategy was simple; if you have a bill, don't pay it. Force them to sue, get a judgement, and wait in line with everyone else.
As to MJ's health, I'm the same height MJ was. I got down to 135lbs once and people were worried about me. MJ was a buck 12. How could anyone close to him think he was in perfect health?
Douche Bag!!!!!!!!!

Re: jds –
No, his beloved Neverland which was taken away from him. Unless you havnt studied the courtscripts you should shut up. One observer who did attend the trial was Andrew Cohen, chief legal analyst for CBS News.
Following the trial he wrote a column addressed to those who were upset with the verdict: "The case against Jackson was so bad that even you would have acquitted him based solely upon the evidence. Yes, it was that bad."
If MJ had eaten red meat perhaps he still would have been with us. He looked like a living corpse. Ironically, now he is one.
Quit calling this man a doctor!! He is NOT a doctor and took Michael's money whenever he could, to work on his side projects. He refuses to reveal where his medical training (or any doctorate) comes from and Fox long ago outed this man as never having a doctorate from ANYWHERE in the world!!
hOW THE HELL COULD mICHAEL APPEAR TO BE "IN PERFECT HEALTH" WHEN HE WAS ON DRUGS???????? tHESE PEOPLE WERE ALL IN FANTASYLAND THAT WERE CLOSE TO HIM. DUMBASSES!
The fact that Micheal and his family weren't living at Neverland Ranch at the time of his death, is an indication that he wouldn't want to be buried there.
Um, he doesn't belong there if he no longer owns the place.

It's absurd to say he was in perfect health. Any idiot could see that wasn't true. And why would they bury him at Neverland, where he never returned after the trial? Obviously he didn't want to be there in life. Why would he want to be there in death?
agreed :]
I am sure that alot of people who are yapping and yapping since he has died are probably just finally relieved to be able to actually talk about shit that they never could talk about when he was alive. EVerything was so hush hush when he was alive that it was almost impossible for anyone to even have a conversation about how shit really was with him. I am just glad that he doesn't have to suffer any more. MOre than anything that is the one thing that I am most at peace with. He was tormented when he was alive by the media and his immense fame. He was never able to ever have a normal assemblance of a life and he never had or experienced a childhood. I don't think that he ever knew what it was like to just walk down the street or sit out at a rest. with family and friends and have dinner. That is sad, really sad. If your so famouse that you cannot have any kind of normalicy to life whatsoever then I really don't think that someone can enjoy that kind of fame. I am sure that Micheal had much inner conflict about his fame and what it cost him but at the same time that was all he ever knew and I don't know that he would have wanted it any other way. He lived a priveledged life but not without a high price. I just hope that he can rest easy now. He finally doesn'[t have to fight it out everyday anymore. Its finally over.
#6, I wasn't aware of that fact??!?!? that is so sad, he had an empty stomach and all they found in his gut was a bunch of pills?? Oh that is so F@#$%^ up!! And I suppose his Physician that lived with him knew what his daily routine was like and what his habits were down to the last detail. That is so wrong on so many levels. If you cannot rely on a Dr. who took the Hypocratic oath then there is no hope for any of us anymore. There is so much greed and corruption any more. People just throw out all of there dignity out the window for big bucks and to be connected to a famous person. SAD
The Jackson family and Neverland co-owners owe it to the public who loved Michael to build a shrine at Neverland that fans can visit and pay homage to the late idol.
Re: jds – shut the fuck up. immature ass bitch.
I've heard, on several reports, that although MJ spent twenty odd years at Neverland, that after the 2005 search of the place that he never wanted to go back there. If that's true, it is sad. But understandable….
I saw him with his children and I had never seen a better father… I saw how kind he was and what a wonderful human being" that's so sweet!
