More On The Jacko ‘What More Can I Give’ Fiasco
Tony Ortega of the Dallas Observer has a fantastic account of the details surrounding gay porn producer Marc Schaffel and his work on the ill-fated Michael Jackson charity single ‘What More Can I Give?’. Ortega spoke extensively with Joe Becker, whose production company, ThinkFilm, got involved in the project and spent $120,000 prepping for a video that never happened. He hasn’t been paid by Jackson or Schaffel either. Becker says when he tried to write Jackson attorney Karen Langford that the entire project had seemed like a “scam” perpetrated by Schaffel “and perhaps Jackson himself,” he was greeting with a response from another Jackson attorney, Zia Modabber, who accused Becker of trying to extort the singer with “obnoxious e-mails threatening to disseminate false and defamatory statements in the hope of extorting a payment.”
