Beyonce and Jay-Z to Buy Neverland Ranch?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Rumors,
Beyonce and Jay-Z are looking to buy Michael Jackson's Neverland ranch.
The "Love on Top" singer and her rapper husband were given a tour of the $30 million ranch in Santa Barbara, California by owner Thomas Barack Jr, according to The Sun newspaper.
The famous 3,000-acre ranch - which was named after the fictitious magical island in children's story 'Peter Pan' - was home to the late King of Pop between 1988 and 2005 and has largely been abandoned since the singer's death in 2009. Beyonce, 31, and Jay-Z, 43, spend most of the time in the rapper's home state of New York with their 13-month-old daughter Blue Ivy, but also spend some months as a family in Beyonce's hometown of Houston, Texas.
Meanwhile, the "Single Ladies" hitmaker opened up about her marital life in an interview with Oprah Winfrey on Saturday, telling the talk show host that she "would not be the woman I am if I did not go home to that man."

Michael Jackson Keeps Neverland Ranch
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Sports, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Despite coming narrowly close to losing his Los Olivos home, Michael Jackson has managed to stay on as owner of Neverland Ranch.
The 2500-acre property was set to go on the auction block next week due to unpaid taxes. Luckily for Jackson, his lawyers were able to work out a private agreement that would allow him to refinance his $24.5 million debt.
It’s unclear at this point whether the singer will opt to hang on to the home or attempt to sell it on his own terms. Michael has not actually lived on the estate since the whole 2005 child molestation scandal.
David Beckham - Victoria’s better half - is one of the parties rumored to be interested in the property.

No More Neverland for Jackson
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Legal Issues,
Unless fallen icon Michael Jackson can pay off a $24.5 million loan by March 19th, the infamous Neverland Ranch will be auctioned off to the public.
On top of that, it’s not just the house that’s being auctioned off—it’s everything in and on the property, according to FOXNews.com. They report that Jackson may even let the Santa Barbara estate be sold, as he has not lived there for nearly three years.
Although Britney Spears has been giving Michael competition for the Most Mentally Unstable Celebrity Award, Jackson is still quite the oddball who just might fight at the very end to keep his beloved ranch. Then again, it could very well go in the opposite direction by falling into the hands of a very crazed fan. Some people are even speculating that it may even be best to leave as a museum, since Jackson’s international fan base is still very strong.
