The Last Gift Michael Jackson Bought His Children
What was MJ’s final gift to Prince, Paris and Blanket before he died? Apparently, Michael ordered a set of 3 paintings by artist Nelson De La Nuez for his kids, entitled “Alice in Dali Land,” “Lost Fairy Tales” and “Flavor of the Month.”
The paintings were originally supposed to be delivered on the week following Michael’s death… unfortunately, that didn’t work out. Instead, Katherine arranged to have them delivered yesterday.
Yesterday, we also learned that MJ’s kids would be listed among Barbara Walters’ 10 Most Fascinating People of 2009. But of course, we know most of the mystique that hangs over the children comes from super-fascinating dad — who’s so cool that he ordered his kids cartoon-themed, original pop art.
Apparently, MJ loved Nuez’s art, and considering the cartoony subject matter, it’s no surprise. MJ reportedly bought $13,000 worth of Nelson’s art for himself only 2 weeks before he died.
You can take a look at Nuez’s pop art creations — now hanging in the Jackson estate — at TMZ.
