There was no press release issued from Mr. Jackson's organization regarding any European tour plans.  Despite reports to the contrary, Mr. Jackson is currently in the studio putting finishing touches on his music.

Mr. Jackson has not left Las Vegas nor is he being evicted from his residence in Las Vegas.  He decided not to exercise the option to purchase the house.

Mr. Jackson does not believe that his brother, Randy Jackson, has stolen monies from him, nor does he believe that Randy, or any of his family members, would ever steal from him.  Reports regarding the same were untrue and malicious.

Contrary to published reports, Mr. Jackson is neither losing, nor is he selling his share of the ATV/Sony partnership.  Reports regarding the same are ludicrous, without merit,  and are being written without sufficient personal financial information to make such an unwarranted pronouncement.
