This is chapter 2 of the True Hollywood Story of the Ninja Turtles

Chapter 2: Michaelangelo's story

The nicest, most sensitive and most funniest of them all, Michaelangelo Allen
Jamison was always the party guy. He's also the most innocent. Sometimes,
that could come with a price.

Donatello:This was mainly because Raphael kept messing with him, saying he's
real soft and junk like that. Well, Michaelangelo is kinda soft, but when it
comes to fighting, he kicks some major (bleep).

Michaelangelo may not mean to do bad things on purpose, but this issue has
been sneaking up on him. On January 31st of 1987, Raphael was taunting
Michaelangelo, just plain out hurting his feelings. Then one hour of torments
later, it happened. Michaelangelo immediately went on an emotional rampage
and was arrested by Shredder, who was the Turtle's neighbors at the time.

Shredder:I was just trying to listen to LL Cool J's new single called "I'm
Bad" but I could'nt even hear that (bleep) all 'cuz those (bleep)in' turtles
(bleep)ed it up for me! I mean, Michaelangelo was just crying really really
loud!! Louder than the (bleep)in' THX theme sound on full stereo that is
louder than an atomic bomb!!!! That's why I arrested those mutha(bleep)as! I
wanted to kill them very, very badly, but I just had a bad day that day and
did'nt feel like getting possibly caught. It was just plain, straight up
bull(bleep)!!!

Michaelangelo was arrested and charged with disturbing the peace. He did'nt
have to serve any time in prision, he was just fined for $3,000. Then, the
next rampage was just too much. Back in September of 1989, while putting the
final touches on their first feature film to be released the following year,
Raphael's been at it again messing with Michaelangelo. Then, Michaelangelo's
next emotional rampage was extreme enough to have him locked in a nuthouse,
and that's what happened, too. Shredder, annoyed with Michaelangelo again,
called Pine Rest on him. They came, and put Michaelangelo in a
straightjacket, and tossed him into a van for mental patients. Michaelangelo
had to spend a year in Pine Rest, where he was still straightjacketed, tossed
in a solitary confinement asylum, and been fed nothing but cheese sandwiches,
milk and pills.

Raphael:It was (bleep)ed up. It's ridiculous. Here I am, locked up in a
mental facility. Even though I ain't do it on purpose, I still feeled like a
stupid-(bleep). When I got out, all people could call me was El Stupido. The
food there was terrible! They fed me ungrilled cheese sandwiches. When I eat
that stuff, I prefer mine grilled on a skillet, but their's were'nt, which
made it taste nasty to me. I kept refusing to eat. Then they force-fed me
with a stomach tube. Hours after that, I started getting really sick, then
I'd repeatedly start vomiting. It's their fault why I was this way. Then I
asked for pizza, they game me a week old slice with maggots and everything.
It was one (bleep)ed up place to go, yo. For real, man.

This is'nt the 1st time he's gotten in trouble when Michaelangelo himself
is'nt the motive. In 1997, bored with the new TV series they were doing, he
started a singing career on Apocolypse Records and released his debut called
"Serious As A Mutha". His 1st smash hit single "The Beginning" had sampled a
song without permission. They told Michaelangelo that he could sample the
song, but they really wanted to trick him out of his money.

Michaelangelo:I got sued by the Bone Thugs N Harmony. I wanted to sample "1st
Of Tha' Month" from them. I asked them personally, but they said we gotta
speak with your lawyers on this. So I told them to speak to them, and that
I'll pay them $1,000 to do it. But later, I discovered I was gypped.

His lawyers were'nt even lawyers. They were wannabes who just wanted to put
money in their pockets. They scammed Michaelangelo into giving out money to
them. On June 14th of '97, the lawsuits began. Ruthless Records, home of the
Bone Thugs N Harmony, sued Apocolypse Records and Michaelangelo for sampling
their song without proper permission. Ruthless Records won the case, and
Michaelangelo and his record label were forced to cough up $4.5 million to
Ruthless.

Michaelangelo:I almost went bankrupt. All I had left after this was just $25.

But now, things look more brighter for this young, enthusiastic youngster.
He's currently filming a new Ninja Turtle movie with his comrads (Raphael is
getting replaced with a lookalike due to his arrest), and is back in the
studio finishing up his new album to be titled "Scythe" and is said to be
released sometime this October.
