SoCal Wildfire Threatens Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch
Michael Jackson‘s Neverland Ranch was threatened with foreclosure, but his Estate was able to step in and save it. The Estate now has a more formidable job against Mother Nature.
A seemingly unstoppable blaze is becoming perilously close to MJ’s famous/notorious ranch in Santa Barbara County. It’s called the Lake Fire, and it’s caused a mad scramble with evacuations in its path.
The blaze has spread to more than 12,000 acres in areas thick with brush … which in the heat of SoCal makes it more than problematic.
Neverland will be a backdrop for the soon-to-be-released MJ biopic, simply titled “Michael.” The movie stars MJ’s 27-year-old nephew Jaafar.
It looks like Neverland had a facelift for the flick, because the fairgrounds, including the rides, have been gussied up. Ditto the landscaping.
Fingers crossed.
