Washington, July 11 (ANI): While Michael Jackson reportedly died with a debt estimated at around 400 million dollars, it has emerged that the ‘King of Pop’ enjoyed an excessively lavish lifestyle, and had a “thing” for cars.

The ‘Thriller’ hit-maker was known for splashing out money to support his lavish lifestyle with private planes, zoo animals, fantasy rides, antiques, hotels, and personal staff.

However, court papers from his 2000 divorce with Debbie Rowe have revealed that Jackson absolutely loved automobiles, reports Fox News.

According to the papers, 75 vehicles had been registered under Jackson’s name in California, ranging from several Rolls Royce’s to fire trucks to motorcycles to convertibles to Chevys to Mercedes to pick-up trucks.

But Rowe was permitted to keep just one car - a 1998 Ford Explorer-as part of her divorce settlement.

The settlement also states that Jackson was to be the sole owner of “all trains” in his possession.

Rowe was also awarded a house in Beverly Hills, but Jackson owned Neverland ranch and three other sprawling properties in California.

And it is believed that his trustees now have their work cut out piecing together all his funds.

At the time of his divorce, MJ had 16 checking accounts and 5 savings accounts with numerous different Californian banks.

But despite being such a big spender, Jackson’s made it to the 2000 edition of the Guinness Book Of World Records for breaking the world record for the “Most Charities Supported By a Pop Star.” (ANI)
