Michael Jackson Is Being Sued by Former Publicist

Raymone Bain, Michael Jackson's former spokeswoman and personal general manager, is suing Jackson for $44 million. Bain filed a breach of contract lawsuit in Washington, D.C. claiming the pop star allegedly failed "to pay her for her services," Reuters reported.

In a statement, Bain said she filed for the lawsuit "with deep regret" because she admires and respects Jackson, but he didn't leave her with any other alternative to solve the matter.

"Unfortunately, Mr. Jackson has elected not to honor the financial obligations of our contractual relationship, despite numerous attempts to amicably resolve this matter," Bain said.

She added that she is "disappointed" in Jackson's "failure to honor his obligation." Despite this though, she explains that her actions are on a "professional and business" level and not personal, according to E! Online.

"Michael Jackson, in my opinion, is the 'King of Pop,' she said, expressing that she has "no regrets."
