Al Khalifa, 33, testified that Jackson, 50, reneged on a contract for a new album, an autobiography and a stage play after accepting millions of dollars in advances. The sheik said that in addition to covering Jacko's living and travel expenses during his year-long stay in Bahrain, he built the singer a recording studio, spent more than $300,000 securing him a "motivational guru" and gave him $250,000 in cash so Jackson "could entertain his friends at Christmas."
