Neverland in Foreclosure?

Rumors have been rampant for months that Michael Jackson's Neverland estate was about to be foreclosed upon, but now comes the first concrete evidence that Jacko's home is about to go back to the bank. Who's bad?

The Implode-O-meter has obtained the foreclosure and Notice of Default report for Santa Barbara County -- and Neverland is listed. According to that report, Jackson is, as of October 12, delinquent $23,212,963 on a $23,000,000 loan.

Notice of Defaults in the state of California typically go out when a homeowner misses their third payment. After another 30 days, the homeowner is issued a foreclosure notice. According to this document, it appears that the King of Pop is $212,963 delinquent on the loan's principal of $23 mil.

A rep for Jackson did not immediately return our call for comment.

76. Michael has already bought a home on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. How lucky for us to have him in our part of the country.

77. I wish I had the money to buy it. If it would go commercial it would be worth
a fortune. Imagine what the tours would bring. It would dwarf the Elvis home tour.

78. Goofy Dude, The California government should by it at a discount and use the property to help kids in a positive way. Good Bye Neverland, no Peter has left this lifetime!

79. I am so sorry to hear Jacko is having financial issues that it is driving me into a state of deep depession. The only thing that can possibly bring me out of this terrible state of mind is the day Neverland is actually sold by the sheriff on the steps of the county courthouse. Couldn't be happening to a nicer guy!

88. This lunatic has no money left because he has to pay all his little boyzzzz off, he is stigmatized for life and his career is ruined. Even the record companys dont want nothing to do with him. Quincy jones tells michael im busy with other things to help you. Jackson dug his own grave and now needs to jump in it.

89. What good is Neverland now that he can't use it to attract young boys for sleep over parties?
