Paul Anka Gets Publishing Rights

Michael Jackson’s estate just got a partner that it wasn’t expecting because it’s just been said that Paul Anka is now a 50% partner for the publishing rights to ‘This is It’. The singer will also get other profits but the publishing rights are usually the biggest ticket and sources say that the King of Pop’s estate has agreed that Paul gets half of it. I bet that Paul wasn’t expecting that when he woke up. Sadly for Sony, they didn’t either. But it’s just fair. Paul did write the song with Michael. They could find themselves in an even bigger mess if they didn’t acknowledge that.
