More wacko court action

Michael Jackson, sued by promoter Marcel Avram over two allegedly cancelled concerts, makes dismissive remarks outside court and in the courtroom.

Even more from the world of Michael Jackson.

First, outside the court where he is being sued by gig promoter Marcel Avram for allegedly cancelling two concerts. He was asked by the press what he though of Gloria Allred, the attorney who last week wrote to California authorities questioning Jackon’s abilities as a father after the baby-on-the-balcony incident in Germany.

"What would you say about Gloria Allred?" a journalist asked.

"Who's that?" Jackson replied.

"She's the attorney who's calling for an investigation by children services as a result of the ..."

"Ah, tell her to go to hell," Jackson replied.

Meanwhile, in the courtroom, word is Marcel Avram's attorney Louis ‘Skip’ Miller got so frustrated by Jackson answering questions “I don’t recall” that he asked Jackson if he suffered from memory problems. Jackson replied, "Not that I can recall."

Others were more interested in his conduct in court. He reportedly shouted "Eeeow!" into the microphone several time and made hand motions such as antlers and devil horns on the stand.
