So The Jacksons Are Broke?+Halle Gets Nahla's Nursery Baby Fab+What's Really Going On With Mario & Karina?+Other Fabness

So the Post has a 5 page article about Michael Jackson and Co. being on the road back from riches to rags.  But this excerpt right here pretty much sums it up: Marlon Jackson, 51, an original Jackson Five member who stocks shelves at a Vons supermarket in San Diego, had to temporarily move into an extended-stay hotel. Randy, 46, does odd jobs, including fixing cars in a Los Angeles garage owned by a family friend. He recently claimed Michael was going to give him $1.7 million - "a pipe dream," said another brother last week. Jackie, 56, the oldest and most debonair of the brothers, is struggling to manage his son Siggy's aspiring rap career after an Internet clothing business startup and attempts to produce music failed. Jermaine, 54, shuttles back and forth from his girlfriend's home in Ventura County, Calif., to his parents' mansion in Encino, where Jackie and Randy still bunk. Tito, 55, is the only brother still making music, but it's a meager living. The guitarist fronts a blues and jazz band that plays small venues and nets him $500 and $1,500 per occasional gig - a far cry from the days when the Jacksons could pull in 50,000 people at $30 a ticket. And we all know Mike's financial status.  And apparently Janet's trying to suport everybody at this point.  I'm no Greenspan, but from the looks of things (including them relying on Janet), their joint economic status is f'd up.  Good luck with that. Check out some of the things Halle has laced Baby Nahla's nursery with.  Y'all know that baby was diagnosed with fabulosity at birth.  But Halle and Gabe seemed to keep things pretty low key for the most part.  Cute ish. I keep hearing whispers from multiple sources that R&B singer Mario may be crushing on his Dancing With The Stars partner Karina Smirnoff.  Even though Karina is Mario Lopez's (her former partner's) main chick.  And yesterday. R&B Mario said he knows nothing about that relationship with the other Mario, but when it comes to dancing, he and Karina "just click".  Congrats to Estelle for killing the UK charts with her new album. So who's getting one? The Randomnes:
  1. Wait, Tyra had a stalker?
  2. But do we really blame this 12 year old?
  3. "The Hills" premieres tonight and Mariah Carey is doing a special performance on it.

Do we really need tp post the lies about the Jacksons? Its bad enough people think black folks dont have any money and to post their fininacial problems is not a good look. And I highly doubt it that these stories are true.

The Jackson info

The Jackson info is`speculative....white media has been saying for years that the Jackson's are broke...and to date no one has come close to proving it so whaeva on that. As far as Mario is concerned I knew he was crushing on her the first show. And she seemed to be all on in his Kool-Aid as well. Maybe she isn't with the other Mario anymore...weather she told him that is soo Hollywood

I think Karina and Mario

I think Karina and Mario Lopez are still together. I wouldn't be surprised if R&B Mario has a crush on her. He's young, and he's spending hours and hours every day with her. Every season on DWTS people speculate about dancers & stars being involved. And it's generally the good teams... why? Because a great dancing partnership is going to make you believe the couple is really connected. Everybody thought Cheryl Burke and Drew Lachey were hooked up the year he won... they thought Julianne was hooked up with Apollo the year they won and then Helio the year she won with him. Sure, sometimes they do hook up (like Mario L. and Karina), but for the most part, it's just because they're a great partnership.

Jacko "owned" the publishing rights to the Beatles Catalog... but that being said... Jacko sold half those rights to Sony back in 95 due to his broke state... and from what i understand, as part of that same deal he's got to sell the other 50% to Sony some time in May of this year to cover the rest of his debts... so take it as you will... he ain't as rich as you think he is.

IMO Mario is DEFINITELY

IMO Mario is DEFINITELY crushing on Karina. Moreover, he stated in his video package that he wanted to be on the show so her could meet HER specifically and he was so EXCITED when he found out she was his partner. Last week he held her real tight, gave her direct eye to eye contact and kept KISSING her multiple times after their dance and she let him, it was a very STRANGE moment...I knew then that he really LIKES this chick and would hit it given the opportunity. This week he wasn't as demonstrative but nonetheless he is CRUSHING BIG TIME and she'll let him if it helps her win and elevate her status. I don't care for the chick at all, she is a snake in the grass, an opportunist and a sore loser like her live-in lover Mario Lopez... but they have a great chance of winning because Mario is that good.
