    What?!?!? It’s been 25 years! Stupid ambulance chasing lawyers.

  • Annie

    Why has she waited over 25 years to file suit?

  • Tyre

    Three words: statute of limitations. You only have so long to sue before the time to be able to expires. I think 25 years is a bit too long.

  • Anne

    Ola, this is pretty pathetic. Why didn’t you sue when Michael actually still had money? You must be either desperate or incredibly stupid to try a stunt like this after all this time has passed. I usually have no sympathy for Michael but feel safe in predicting this lawsuit will go nowhere.

    I predict a landmark decision in this case, henceforth known as Frivolous v. Hilarious.

    ola thats kinda dumb that you waited 25 years to sue him you could of just done it when he actually had the money. give the damb guy a break

    Excuse my language but this chicken is a f*cker. First off she waits 25 years to come at MJs head and ask for money!!!!! AND THIS WAS ONE MONTH BEFORE HE DIED! She helped to kill him too. She saw that a whole bunch of other money hungry people were coming at him and she wanted a piece too! Shes going to hell. And I’m going to laugh.

  • me

    wow.
    ya’ll are dumb.
    she sued along time ago.
    and she didnt sue MJ she sued the directors and people involved. michael had nothing to do with it. of course the media is gonna tweak it.
    and thats pretty wrong of you to say she helped kill him and that shes goin to hell. you’re sick! and who are you to judge?

    This is BEYOND pathetic.
    I suspect the only reason that she keeps suing over “Thriller” is because she can’t find work anywhere else.
    Though, in all fairness, I’ve read that she at least had the decency to drop the lawsuit shortly before Michael’s death.

    Jeez people. No wonder MJ secluded himself and didn’t trust people. Everyone was after the money. He donated so much to charity and these leeches were certainly not worthy. Even the director John Landis was suing for his share. I think they should just be glad they are a part of history and leave it at that. What is our world becoming. Get a job!

    You go Ola. I don’t care if it’s been 25 years just because he is supposedly the “King of Pop” doesnt mean he can cheat people like this.
