It’s been 26 years since Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” video was released, and the woman who played his love interest is just now filing a lawsuit claiming she hasn’t been paid her share of royalties [click here to read].
TMZ.com reports that Ola Ray is suing Jackson and his production company to receive her cut of profits from the groundbreaking 13 minute clip, in which her character watches her boyfriend (Jackson) turn into a dancing zombie [click here to read].
“We spoke to Ola Ray’s attorney, who tells us the former Playboy Playmate is suing for breach of contract,” TMZ stated. “We’re told Ola’s not sure exactly how much she’s owed — her accountants will figure that out.”

why would she wait 26 years and after the man has passed away…that was dumb on her part!!!
guess she want get that now rip micheal
She waits until now. C’mon. She has to be broke and/or jumping on the band wagon to get loot from him. Funny part is – he has nothing now! His Neverland ranch has tons of stuff up for auction. Even the front gates! So, wish her well but doubt she’ll get some huge retro pay. For waiting so long her name is now Mrs. DuMass. It’s French.
Why now?? Is she just broke or what?
Mike need to hold her off until he dies (which is like in june/july) and send her a note that say Thanks for a great time. lol
she has been suing micky for long time and she wants to get every penny from him that’s nt fair
Hey check out some good new R&B music at http://www.reverbnation.com/rickeyelvisowens and join the mailing list.
she should have sued, right after he settled his 1st case. he should send her a per of his peeny loafers and call it even.
She wants to get Mikey for every penny he has left, after paying those parents off. Why, 26 years later, I have no idea, myself, especially since I’ve read interviews post-Thriller, where she’s had nothing but kind words for Jacko. Somebody probably got in her ear and said, “GIRRRL, you KNOW you can sue Michael, right? You ain’t doin’ shyt, you better get that money!”
she has sued him about 30 times for this…
Why the hell would she wait this long to sue over some damn royalties……..Thriller is over 20 years old….this just let’s you know just how bad the economy has gotten…….
she is getting old and probably broke thriller has made money off the sobe drinks lately how does she fit in with that?
Hello ur like 20 years late u think. Now that the economy being bad everyone is suing everyone. She had plenty of time to collect. I hope they drop it, they should of pursued it like uh back then lol

“PLAYBOY PLAYMATE(BUNNY)
fo hugh hifner(85 yrs of age)
he’s dried up now, kicked her to the curb like spongebob did to big bird.

money up from playboy salary
she should of said
” NO TO DRUGS ” didnt she know that “CRACK IS WACK”
and drained her cash up like
that.
THIS MESS IS CRAZY! MICHAEL JACKSON IS BEING SUED BY EVERYBODY AND ITS NOT HIM THAT MAKES THE DECISIONS ON THE PAYROLL. I WANT TO SAY DAMN SMH HE SHOULD BE SUIING FOR ANY UNPAID ROYALTIES! PEOPLE AINT LOOKING AT THE TRUE PICTURE…ITS ALL ABOUT MONEY THEY WANT AND THEY WANT TO GO AFTER THE BIGGEST AND TOUGHEST. SHE WILL LOSE THIS BATTLE!
