Joe Jackson Net Worth: Father of Janet and Michael Jackson | Money

Fired as a manager by his children and accused of abuse and cruelty by several of his kids, Joe Jackson died without much in the way of money or an estate. At the time of his death, his net worth was estimated at $500,000, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

A lawyer for Joe Jackson filed a petition seeking an allowance from Michael Jackson’s estate, stating that the elder Jackson had little in the way of income. Joe Jackson was hoping to receive a stipend that would cover the $1,200 monthly rent on his home in Las Vegas, as well as monthly allotments of $2,500 for dining out, $1,000 for entertainment and gifts, $2,000 for flights, and $3,000 for hotels. The total sought by Joe Jackson came to over $15,000 a month, or nearly $200,000 per year.

Over years, Joe Jackson has been involved in many businesses attempting to profit off the Jackson family’s music legacy. In 2012, for example, he was seen in a mall kiosk selling “Jackson Perfumes,” and he reportedly did not have permission to use the image of Michael Jackson used on the bottle.

Jameson Blake apologizes after asking for free graphic design from artists | Inquirer Entertainment

Local actor Jameson Blake was slammed recently by netizens after he asked graphic artists if they could make him a banner he could use for his social media accounts. And instead of remuneration, Blake said the best banner would get a “shoutout” from him in exchange.

The solicitation was made on Twitter last July 4, although the tweet has since been deleted. “Any graphic designers here?” Blake asked then. “Willing to make me a cover photo/banner for (ex. Youtube, Twitch). I need a banner with the username ‘Lucid Express’. Best one gets a shout out from me.”

If people really want to get back at the guy, dapat hindi na lang pinansin yung post. Ano ba ang habol na mga KSP? Any publicity is still publicity.

Simple... young people nowadays won’t flock to buy records from veterans even if they are still miles better than the current crop of teenage heartthrobs (with a few spectacular exceptions like morissette).

Sadly, That’s just how it is.... image and looks play a big role even in the music industry.

Yes, pera pera na kasi. Even non-singers basta popular nag-click. Tignan mo si Anne Curtis tapos yung sa Probinsiyano na nanalo sa Your face sounds familiar. Nawawala na yung art sa music hehe.
