Michael Jackson's London Show in Jeopardy
Posted May 11th 2009 11:20AM by TMZ Staff
Michael Jackson's hailed London concerts may never happen -- if a new bunch of lawyers get their way.
We've AllGood Entertainment -- the company that was putting together a series of concerts with Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, and their brothers -- has fired off a cease and desist letter to the people organizing Jackson's London concerts, demanding that the show not go on.
Here's what went down. In November, 2008, Jackson's manager -- Frank Dileo -- signed a deal promising that M.J. would appear with his family on tour. Part of the deal -- Jackson was prohibited from even making another concert deal for 18 months. But lawyers for the family tour claim after their deal was signed, Jackson went and signed up for his London concerts -- allegedly a violation of the 18-month blackout clause.
Lawyers for the family tour now want to block the London concerts. As for *****'s defense ... we're told his position is that he never signed his name on the family tour deal. But we know his manager signed, and in the law an agent can often sign for the client.
So will the show go on?
Stay tuned

Again, too many chefs in the kitchen will ruin the pot. So who is it? Tohme, Dileo or Rowe? Or is it Bain who was never technically fired (according to her court papers)?
