As you all know, Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch is set to go up for auction next week because of the singer's failure to keep on top of his finances. But word has it some rather obsessive British fans could buy it back for him. So that's alright then.
According to The Sun, two young British businessmen, Liam Collins and David Bone, say they want to buy the 2,800 acre property. The idea being that they would then let Jacko have it back under some kind of rental agreement. Of course, this plan rather assumes that he genuinely wants to keep the place, which I'm starting to doubt, given that he hasn't set foot there since 2005.
Collins and Bone founders of property firm CBS, say they want to bid for the ranch because of their love of Michael Jackson and their belief that he helped them get where they are today.
Bone told the tab: "we really want to see Jacko back on his feet. He's had a hard time of it", whilst Collins explained the history: "We've idolised Jacko since we were kids. Both of us used to sing along and dance to his tunes in the 80s and David even had a cardboard cut out of him in his room. I decided to hook up with David and go into property development. To earn enough cash to build a portfolio we used to go down to London where we did a 'Jacko show' in Trafalgar Square. We must have done 15 Billy Jeans a day, earning anything from £500 to £1,000".
So that's all lovely.
