Höhere Gehaltsvorstellungen z.B. von Travis Payne mussten doch von Michael abgesegnet werden. Ging doch auch aus einer Mail hervor. "Das ist nicht AEGs Geld, das ist Michael Jacksons Geld, wir brauchen Genehmigung."

Das ist eine Stellungnahme von Seth Righs 1 Woche nach Michaels Tod:
On Thursday of last week, the world wept as we all came to grips with the fact that, Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, had passed away. Anyone who has ever loved his music knows what an effect he had on our lives, our culture and our souls. He was truly a creative genius and gave his life to the perfection of his art.
I have worked closely with Michael for over 21 years, as his vocal coach and his friend. We have been through countless concerts, performances, rehearsals and tours… but nothing quite like his “This is it Tour”. We worked tirelessly, everyday, as Michael is indeed a true perfectionist. He took every measure to make sure he was prepared for the grueling tour, vocally and in all other aspects as well. It truly would have been a legendary tour.
Ich habe mit Michael über 21 Jahr gearbeitet als sein Vocal Coach und sein Freund. Wir gingen durch zahlreiche Konzerte, Perfomances, Proben und Touren... aber nichts war wie seine "This is it Tour". Wir arbeiteten unermüdlich jeden Tag, weil Michael war in der Tat ein Perfektionist. Er nahm jede Anstrengung um sicher zu stellen, dass er vorbereitet war für diese anstrengende Tour, stimmlich und in allen anderen Aspekten. Es wäre wirklich eine legendäre Tour geworden.
The death of Michael Jackson had indeed come to me as a dramatic shock and I was overwhelmed with a deep sense of sadness. Not only for the late star, but also for all fans and friends, but most importantly, for his family. I not only loss an extraordinary pupil, I lost a great friend. He will be truly missed as one of the most inspirational, kind, and dedicated people to have graced us with his enormous talents.
At this time there are millions of press releases flooding us with “reports” and accusations. I stand strong that Michael Jackson was well before his tragic death and eager to begin his world-wind tour. I believe he was devoted to making the best tour for his fans that was humanly possibly, and beyond! Any other misquotes or assumptions posed to be my words are false, as this is my first and possibly only public statement regarding this matter. I believe that unless it is proven otherwise, his cause of death was accidental.
Zu dieser Zeit gibt es Millionen von Presseveröffentlichung, die uns überfluten und Anschuldigungen. Ich stehe stark dafür, dass es Michael Jackson gut ging vor seinem trag. Tod und bereit war diese Welttour zu beginnen. Ich denke er wollte die beste Tour machen für seine Fans, die menschlich möglich ist und darüber hinaus. Jede andere Misinterpretierung oder Annahmen, die meine Worten wären sind falsch, da dies meine erste und wahrscheinlich einzige öffentliche Stellungnahme zu diesem Thema ist. Ich glaube, falls nichts anderes bewiesen wird, dass sein Tod ein Unfall war.
I do hope that in this time of mourning, we as a people, can focus on the immense greatness that Michael shared with the world, and not diminish his name with any negative accusations. He was a beacon of light and harmonious genius, and he should be remembered for all the treasures he left us. We are blessed to have lived in the time of, Michael Jackson.
