Michael Jackson's Oscar missing
Written by . Published: February 26 2016
Michael Jackson's Gone With The Wind Oscar has disappeared.
The King of Pop purchased movie mogul David O. Selznick's 1940 Best Picture Academy Award for $1.5 million in 1999 at a Sotheby's auction, but now the star's attorney tells The Hollywood Reporter it has gone missing.
"The estate does not know where the Gone With the Wind statuette
is," Howard Weitzman said. "We would like to have that Oscar
because it belongs to Michael's children. I'm hopeful it will turn
up at some point."
