Release of Jackson's 9/11 Charity Single in Doubt

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A charity single recorded by Michael Jackson to raise money for victims of Sept. 11 has fallen into limbo since the pop star learned that the song's executive producer is involved in the pornography business, the singer's spokesman said on Friday.

 

The self-proclaimed King of Pop "cut all ties" with the song's original executive producer "the minute he found out about this guy's background," several months ago, Jackson publicist Dan Klores told Reuters.

 

Klores said fallout from the disclosure and other issues had thrown into question whether the all-star single, "What More Can I Give," will ever see the light of day, but added that as of "three or four days ago there was still hope that this single will be released."

 

The producer in question, F. Marc Schaffel, acknowledged in an interview with the Los Angeles Times on Friday that he worked "in the adult film business" and had produced and directed dozens of gay pornography videos.

 

The Los Angeles Times, citing unnamed sources and documents obtained by the paper, reported the singer's own advisors quietly had asked Sony to bury the project after learning of Schaffel's background.

 

Schaffel, whose production company does business as Neverland Valley Entertainment, urged Sony executives in an open letter last month to release "What More Can I Give" or allow another label to issue it. Neverland also is the name of Jackson's private compound in central California.

 

The Times also reported that fast-food giant McDonald's Corp. pulled out of a multimillion-dollar agreement to sell the single in its restaurants over concerns about Jackson's involvement in a 1993 child molestation case that he settled for out of court for a reported $15 million. Jackson, who denied any wrongdoing, was never charged with a crime.

 

A spokeswoman for McDonald's said the company was in talks about "a potential fund-raising effort" with Jackson last year, but "there was never an agreement between the parties."

 

"We looked at it from a strict business perspective and decided to take a pass on it based on timing, distribution and cost issues," McDonald's spokeswoman Lisa Howard said.
