Mr. Jackson is continuing to reach out to artists who would like to work with him on this project, which he humbly hopes will make a tremendous difference to all individuals who have been affected by this tragedy,

Michael is very, very, very saddened to learn of the passing of Bill Bray, who was a longtime friend and mentor to him and very trusted adviser to him.

There are others who have to lay vocals well. (Jackson) plans on getting together with them for the chorus. We still have two to three more steps before the song will be ready for release.

The reports having originated out of London regarding this thing are untrue.

I want to state for the record, unequivocally: Michael Jackson has not sold Neverland. He is not moving to Europe. That is a rumor.

I'd prefer they didn't show them or accept them. They certainly looked like the artists' work, but if the West Australian gallery was interested in works from the Western Desert, you'd like to think they'd come to us directly.
