*AllGood Entertainment has amended its original lawsuit against Michael Jackson over profits from the upcoming movie "This Is It." The original suit, which was filed before Michael's death against the singer, AEG Live and Frank Dileo for $40 million, now goes after the King of Pop's estate in federal court for more than $300 million. The company claims Dileo acted as Jackson's agent and agreed to a Jackson family reunion concert – and that got torpedoed when the London concerts were booked. In justifying the $300 mil, AllGood says it never anticipated that Jackson would die and that a movie would be made, which now ups the ante.
*Katherine Jackson is reportedly claiming that she and other family members have been snubbed from attending the Los Angeles premiere of "This Is It." TMZ.com says it has "multiple sources" claiming that she was never contacted about getting seats to the event, despite an offer of 60 tickets to the family. Sources say Sony not only offered the Jackson family seats to the premiere, but also offered a private screening. TMZ says Katherine doesn't want to see the movie anyway, because in her eyes, "there is no acting -- just rehearsal footage." However, Jackson's three kids "have been telling Katherine they want to see it ... bad," the Web site reported. Meanwhile, Papa Joe insists "This Is It" is mostly body doubles and "the media is going to tear this movie apart."
*Four giraffes once belonging to Michael Jackson may be evicted from their new home in the Banjoko Wildlife Preserve in Page, Ariz. unless their new owner can raise $100,000 for insurance on the animals. TMZ.com is reporting that Freddie Hancock, who has cared for the giraffes since 2006, is trying to obtain a $100,000 bond from an insurance company to look after the pets, as required by local council officials. The legislators refused to issue the insurance that would provide emergency cover for the giraffes.
