MICHAEL JORDAN’S EX-WIFE IS GETTING PAID

Tuesday, November 13, 2007

mj_wife.jpg

Michael Jordan’s divorce is set to cost him $168 million. Yes, you did read that correctly, Michael Jordan will be paying his ex wife, Juanita Vanoy, $168 million dollars to finalize the divorce.

In an interview that aired Friday on NBC’s “Today Show” Michael spoke about the divorce and his kids:

His eldest son, Jeff, who plays collegiate ball at the University of Illinois in Urbana, said the breakup was “hard for all of us” — including his younger brother Marcus and sister Jasmine.

His mom and I were on the same page when it came to that — our kids came first. We still communicate each and every day. Nothing’s being done with the kids that we don’t communicate. And we’re very good friends actually. And they can sense that,” said Jordan, who led the Chicago Bulls to six championships.

Jordan, in his first comments about the divorce, said he and his ex-wife were open with their children about their marital difficulties — a period he called “a trying and negative time.” [ READ MORE ]

Money is all relative to what someone has. Michael Jordan is a media and sports darling and mogul and will make that ten times over in the next few years.

Their marital situation is unusual in that they were married for several years above and beyond many marriages made in entertainment are, and the fortune was created during the marriage.

Divorce is never pretty. But sometimes it’s a relief to all parties involved. And if they have settled on this amount and are still friends and co-parenting, then that’s all that needs to be said.

I wish them both the best.

Its really not about the money and those of you who have families can understand that. It is about what is best for their children and She is entitled to continue to live the life she is used to and if it takes 168million Dollars for her to continue to do that oh well.

Besides all the mental stress and abuse the marriage probably put her through she deserves every penny. and finding a Date is going to be hard who can take a woman out that has 168 million Dollars where you gonna take her that she hasn’t been.

When you’re worth what Jordan is worth it’s not that much money. She isn’t even getting half of what’s in his accounts.

I’m just glad that they’re not dogging each other in the media like some other celebrities.

It would have been nice if the marriage lasted though…

SHIT thats a lot of fuckin money in a divorce settlement. How do the courts quantify the costs made out to other party, for all those who know their law?

Michael looks old wow.

You know what…thats what MJ get!!!!!!!…she deserves every bit of the money….he should have thought about before he cheated….she gave him too much chances! Some people gotta learn the hard way i guess! His over-priced sneakers makes me mad on how many of these kids hurting each other over them…I know went off topic but he just ticks me off sometimes.

But Juanita is making out good though…….

I see you Juanita! Go head girl! This reminds me of the scene from Dairy of a Mad Black Woman where Madea was adding up all the things the guy owed his wife for putting up with him all those years. Clearly Michael is paying for EVERY mistake he made, thought of making, anticipated creating, all that.

29.

Intrigue216

Tuesday, November 13, 2007 /

I agree with 17 & 18. I’m pretty sure the money she is getting is no where near enough to compensate everything she has put in with in her marriage and everything she will have to deal with post-divorce. Michael Jordon is probably worth close to $500 mil and maybe more so the little $168 mil he has to pay her won’t even break his pockets. Its so good that they are civil with each other and still maintain a balanced relationship with the children.

BEAUTY Q.T.

Tuesday, November 13, 2007 /

WOW! I can’t even dream of spending that much money! I don’t understand why people want to wait until they are damn near wrinkled to get a divorce. Most of the time, the man’s di*k aint worth shi* anyway, so he might as well stay with his wife. IMO

Fucking disgusting………..

She deserves 168 million dollars for pumping babies out of her pussy……

Give me a break…..

I bet 99.9% of the people who are saying that she deserves the money are women….

That’s why you should never marry women, their only purpose is to satisfy a man lower regions, nothing else. And that’s not worth 168 million dollars.

why did she do to deservce that? has this woman ever had a job in her life?
pushing the kids out of her pussy is not worth $168m
so what if he cheated? she got comfortable in the marriage and got fat and wouldnt do anythng about it….typical black woman
jordan is another idiot getting married without solid prenupt…!
black women keep saying she`s getting paid..! theny`all wonder why statistics show you as the least likely women in america to get married because you think child support and divorce settlements are entitlements…sad!!

“black women keep saying she`s getting paid..! theny`all wonder why statistics show you as the least likely women in america to get married because you think child support and divorce settlements are entitlements…sad!!”

I usually agree with most stuff that you say but I disagree with you on this one. Black women aren’t known for “sticking black men for their paper”. It’s mostly white women who hook up with black stars that are looking for the easy way out. And yes if I have a child with a man who lacks providing financially for his child like he should, then I AM entitled to child support. And yes if I am married to you and you do something stupid and break that union we have, then I AM entitled to a divorce settlement/alimony. If I wasn’t entitled to it, then the law wouldn’t state that I am.

In Martin’s voice *Juanita, you are about to get broke offfffff. Woo Woo Woo*

Okay I’m sorry but I have to be the voice of reason here…
How in the hell does Juanita deserve 168??? I mean lets be real ladies, if she were that distraught about her living situation she should have left long ago YET she didn’t. Now I know the first thing you all will say is she loved him, let me tell you something I may love someone but not more than I love myself. There’s no way in hell I’m staying with a man because of “love” because like Ton said “love should have brought you home last night”. Juanita knew just what she was doing, the longer she stayed the more money she would get, because I can almost guarantee they weren’t having sex… How can I say that two words MAGIC JOHNSON!!! No woman in her right mind would continue to sleep with a womanizer like Mike….AND BELIEVE ME JUA JUA IS IN HER RIGHT MIND LOOK AT ALL SHE’S GETTING!
Now don’t get me wrong she does deserve something but what she’s getting isn’t fair and she doesn’t deserve it. Micheal is the one with the championship rings not her, she’s just the one with the diamond rings and they don’t count.

It was cheaper to keep her!!!!

y’all need to shut up.. it ain’t that serious! He probably wants her to have the money.. he knows the problems he may have put her thru and he also knows that she deserves it.. she can’t just run out and get a job and get back on her feet that fast.. The amount may be excessive, but it’s not ur money to give! it’s not much for him…

Putting up with his infidelity, getting his jumpoff’s pregnant was very sick on MJ’s part, but Juanita kept her mouth closed! She could’ve wrote books, etc, but no because he was Michael Jordan a God to some…$168 million is nothing compared to what he has.

Lmao @ # 31 You trippin

of course to us that an awful lot of money but for money mike ? please he pulled that walking around money out of his sock and tossed it on the table :)

He shouldve had a prenup in place though although I hope people don’t confuse wanting a prenup with meaning she shouldn’t get anything .As the mother of his kids I doubt he could look them in the eye if he didn’t at least try and keep their mom well off even though they were not together. I know I couldn’t .

It’s so easy for some muthafuckers to sit here and type about what she SHOULD or SHOULDN’T get. You don’t know what hell that woman went through with that man during their ENTIRE marriage. His ass probably BEGGED on her on numerous occasions not to leave, because he KNEW he had fucked up PLENTY of times. No, she didn’t play ball, but I’m pretty sure she played with HIS balls, and put up with all of his shit. She was there BEFORE he got rich, so yes, she deserves all of that. Fuck the dumb shit.

I’m glad she’s getting EVERY PENNY!!

59.

Meechie

Tuesday, November 13, 2007 /

Wow, this great that she is getting 168 million but this is not enough. Juanita put up with the numerous affairs, and practically raised their children her damn self. The work that goes into raising children is more than all the money Micheal Jordan has. She should have gotten 500 million or more. Michael is trash. Michael Jordon convinced her to marry him and she knew what he would become. He told her it wouldnt be that way and they would have a good life. Juanita went thru hell. One day Michael Jordon will have to answer for everything he has done. If he were my father I would have no respect for him at all.. What is his daughter supposed to think about men when she has a daddy that is a lying,cheating, deceitful, adulterer. When 2 people are marrying it is an oath between them and GOD. It is not 60/40, 50/50, 30/70. It is 100/100. Juanita is equally just as important in her job as Mike. She deserves half hands down.

60.

Louis RICH

Tuesday, November 13, 2007 /

To say what a person does or doesn’t deserve is being a little immature because most people feel because a person stayed married to someone for so long it does entitle them to be accommodated, BUT BE CLEAR! SHE IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL HOUSEWIFE! SHE HAD MAIDS,NANNIES & PRIVATE TUTORS FOR THE KIDS AND TO MAINTAIN THE HOUSE so if anything the maids & nannies deserve a hefty chunk of that money!

it’s not about whether or not she ever dribbled a basketball or sold shoes evidently MJ feels she should have it & that’s all that matters BUT I DO FEEL IF SHE HAD ANY INTEGRITY AS A WOMAN SHE WOULD ONLY TAKE WHAT IS NEEDED CAUSE THANKS TO “DADDY” THOSE KIDS FUTURE ARE SET SO IT’S NOT LIKE SHE’S GONNA DO ANYTHING PRODUCTIVE WITH IT.

I know most women are gonna champion for her cause he allegedly cheated but NO ONE HAS PONDERED THE QUESTION “WHAT WAS HER ROLE IN THE RELATIONSHIP?” sometimes things aren’t as black & white as you think!

MR MR

Tuesday, November 13, 2007 /

funny posts, but has anyone on here actually done any background checks on Juanita?

I didn’t think so….

The reason she is getting so much (and less than what is due actually) is because of the contribution she played in making the money.

Juanita is MBA educated and was in charge of most of Mike’s off court businesses (i.e. steakhouses, car dealerships in NC, etc)…she also used her business education to solidify some of Mikes most lucrative endorsement deals

Even Mike has said she deserves the $….so why are we arguing about it…

how much of the money she will spend on herself? at best 10 millions. The rest will go to her kids when she dies. few millions after your life has been messed up and the pain you will get from a divorce? that’s NOTHING PEOPLE.

All the money in the world will never heal her!!

makes sense…this was a good deal for both parties. They probably just settled on the amount in order to avoid unnecessary litigation. Mike didn’t want to be married anymore and Juanita didn’t deserve to be cheated on constantly. 168mil to avoid paying alimony and trial fees and the media fiasco seems well worth it, especially when your net worth is close to if not more then half a billion.

#61 I have no need for a back ground check I’m fully aware of Juanita’s contributions to the house hold and my opinion still stands.

As for the others calling people outta their name over money you nor I will ever see is childish…

#58 I will say this; you’re right I don’t know all that she endured however we also don’t know all that Mike has endured either.. we don’t know the whole story nor will we ever know.

I’m entitled to my opinion just as anyone else and if I feel she doesn’t deserve the money then I will say so whether others agree or not..point blank PERIOD.

Now I’m done with this discussion if there is anything else you’d like to say I can be reached at my home number 732-202-I DON’T GIVE A SHIT… please be sure to leave a message, thanks have a great day

marital property (assets and property acquired during the course of a marriage) is split 50-50, in the absence of a pre-nup. it doesn’t matter if it’s the man or the woman who has the money. if a woman buys a lottery ticket worth $100 million dollars and divorces her husband the very next day…he still gets half of all marital property, in this example $50 million dollars. it’s not a man vs. woman thing. the money she is receiving must be half of what was acquired during the marriage.

R U kidding me, pleeeeeez, everyone women in freakin America knew about MJ. Next thing I knew that hefa was pregnant. They waited awhile before they got married! He had to marry her even if he didnt want to. She knew exactly what she was doing….setting him up and setting her herself up to get paid!!! NEVER LIKED HER AND NEVER WILL!

SOURCE? The link never mentioned 168 million.

…and no, she doesn’t deserve it. She didn’t meet him in high school or anything. Michael was already in the NBA for 2 years when she met him. He was already very well paid, and on his way to becoming very wealthy. She hit the lottery, basically. Someone explain why she needs that much money to live? Michael will sure nuff take care of all his kid’s expenses. I think 10 million for her and the kids would be more than enough.

I guess your purpose is to educate yourself some more because the ignorance displayed is truly laughable. But I guess some men think using women as a piece of meat is cool. No mr. e-thug, it’s unacceptable. Without a women you wouldn’t even be breathing right now.

168 million is crazy money but not all women are gold diggers. some more respect for women in general in here please.

I believe she deserves it because she got it didn’t she, lol? In this society everything is qualified by the dollar sign so whatever she gets is what she’s deemed to be worth. The courts decided that Michael Jordan’s investment in her companionship was to be accrued at $168 million. Neither Michael nor she can spend a fraction of that money in their lifetimes if they’re in their right minds, so why is it really relevant? Let’s understand one thing; this society is pro-white male and pro-woman so of course it will seem as though the black woman is a gold-digger but she’s no more a gold-digger than any other Americanized woman. The two most truly “American” women in the world are the American-European white woman and the black women of the captivity. The black man is the most disenfranchised man on the earth so it makes the black woman look like more of a gold digger than the white woman to take half the black man’s nickel in some rinky-dink divorce court than it does to see Heather Mills take half of Paul McCartney’s billion. It’s still half regardless. Let’s also get one thing clear though; just as you have Jeanne Strahan, you also have the black women that set up Mike Tyson and Tupac. The lesson learned is that the black man is the ultimate target because he has no defenders. One last thing too; brothers need to chill with that male feminism and female worship, lmao. The Lord and Christ are the reason why the black man; or any person for that matter, is on the earth, not a woman or man.

First, let me say……GOT DAAAAAAAMMMMMNNNNNNNN!!!!!! Second, people kill me talking about ‘She didn’t play for the Bulls, how she getting all that!’ Having to be there for him WHILE he was cheating on her IN HER FACE, having and raising his kids (I personally don’t have no kids but I can feel her because I’ve babysitted for my little rugrat cousins and I swear, I didn’t know I could be as happy as when they parents come and get ‘em!) and allowing him to go out and make the money that he makes. Nobody EVER knows what goes in behind closed doors so I personally won’t even try to speculate on how bad the bad times were and how good the good times were. All I know is, raising kids and maintaing a home and being a good wife to a cheating assed dude, its fair. She deserve it. And obviously he feel like she deserve it too since I don’t see anything about him making her sign a prenup.

Hello, dummies did you also not know that this is also a tax writeoff for this man, why not give it to her and their children than to give it to the government. look this woman was with him when we did not even know who Micheal Jordan was and I am quite sure that is is not an amount that he has amicably agreed to Mike is a smart business man and what I ahve been told she was very good with their maoney when they were married, she did not squander nor still from him she was instrumental in his investment choices. Juanita is no fool, and he knows more than we what he put her through. Most of you who say she doesn’t deserve it is because you don’t have a man in your lives with that kind of money, most of you can’t even get child support, differnt league so you don’t have a clue and she also has grown accustomed to a certain lifestyle due to his success, she and their children she has paid her dues and does nto have to go back.

I guess we forgot about NFL player Michael Strahan’s ex WHITE wife who won a huge divorce settlement herself.

— — —

I am aware of that, but a lot of ppl (especially based on the media and stereotypes) wanna generalise black women and put them in one-box (including some black men who date and marry white women). It’s quite sad really, since I know a lot of black married women (friends, family, etc) who are wonderful spouses. They’re in love with their husbands, always willing to put the family first and taking care of their children, and never fall into the stereotype of black women as over-demanding, bad attitude, baby mama, gold diggin types–images which are so often perpetuated in this society.

What I should have said is that I hope that brothers just look at this as just another ex-married couple gettin a settlement, like so many millions of couples out there, and not attribute it to the black woman.

People keep saying she put her dreams on hold, she was a mortgage banker… I think she should get PAID!!!! But $168 million is a bit much, I wonder how we would feel if our bad choices cost us more than half of everything we earned and worked for. I certainly wouldn’t like it. Everyone makes bad choices!

With that said. Michael was a big dummy, Juanita has him by a few years, got pregnant and now getting paid, I’m pretty sure getting pregnant at 29 was no accident. If he was too dumb to do a pre-nup, if it was me I certainly would have done a post-nup.

This is EXATCLY why marriage is a joke. What does she have to pay him for putting up with her ass? NO woman deserves that much money for marrying a man. No man with that much money should ever get married. Why are so many black women single? Why will a man would rather have a cheap whore than a high price wife is evident. Women always talking trash about the “cheap b*tch” or “golddiggers” that mean “cheat” with, but anyone wanting half of anything is greedy as f*ck.

I estimate that by 2020, you won’t be able to pay a sucessful brother to marry, no matter how good the head, cooking, backrubs or anything is. She just eff the game up for a lot of women right there. If you think I’m lying watch the residual effects of this settlement.

Small thing to a giant like MJ, but she would have gotten more respect from me if she was like, “Keep the 100 mil, 68, should get my nails done boo.” I would have been like, ”
Here take another five.” But out the gate? Hell-to-the-naw.

there was no gun to that nigga’s head when they got married, so whatever her motives were, MJ was all about it so why is that even up for speculation.

second, that nigga stepped out with white bitches every chance he got. you think putting up with the humiliation of being cheated on while/after taking care of three of their kids aint worth a small percentage of his millions (that 168 is less than half his worth and he’ll still be making bread as long as yall dumb niggas keep runnin out buyin his expensive sneakers.)

also, what the hell are yall black men so worried about? i seriously, seriously doubt youll see enough money in your life for any REAL black woman to break their neck to get to. and if my fellow black women know like i know, yall lucky to even get attn from one since most of yall gonna be in jail therefore it is black women who need to be looking elsewhere anyway. haha

plus alimony, divorce, all that shit is the white/rich people game and lazy ass white women (who didnt work, didnt contribute financially to the marriage) have been collecting from their cheatin ass husbands for years. black women have been putting up with sorry ass, not-there-for-their-kids-barely-making-ends-meet niggas since Creation with no option but to keep it moving alone.

She deserves every penny. She was a lawyer who gave up her career to be Michael Jordan’s wife. I am sure he married her because she was beautiful, intelligent and had something going for her. She had his children and raised all of them. She stayed by his side, and helped build his squeaky clean image and LEGACY as Jordan, “the family man.” Juanita’s support HELPED BUILD MICHAEL JORDAN’S BRAND IMAGE.

Michael Jordan was not only famous because he could play ball, but his family man image sold shoes, underwear, and cologne. His image as a wholesome, loving dad allowed him to star his own children’s movie, “Space Jam.” The song, “Be Like Mike,” was based on Jordan’s IMAGE.

Had Juanita left his ass high and dry years ago, while he probably would have continued to excel on the court, his value would have dropped substantially OFF THE COURT in endorsements and network air time. Had Juanita exposed him as a cheating bastard back in the day, he would not HAVE the kind of income he now has to pay her this kind of money.

What is it that people don’t understand about couple’s becoming ONE after marriage? She married him when he still had HAIR. BEFORE the championship rings. When the Bulls were LOSING. She deserves every, damn dime.

He played, now he has to pay. He knows what’s up. I’m sure he knows he’s getting off cheap considering that she kept his family and image in tact, so long.

I think Mike may have married juanita becasue she got pregnant (possibly deliberately). I don’t know whether she used her biz skills to help grow his fortune, but its without a doubt a fact that him being a married family man (as opposed to a baby daddy whore) helped his image with sponsors etc. Ever wondered why despite the fact that he was a known whore, very few media outlets ( celeb gossip rags) did many stories on his numerous affairs? I can only recall one white mistress that ever came out. MJ made a lot of people a lot of money. And a big part of that money depended on his clean cut image. Truth be told, a lot of people who are not mega rich, tend to be very very envious and covetous of anothers wealth. And it seems, also very very paranoid and petty about their own 8 pennies.This is the same issue we saw with Diddy’s ex Misa. People who have little monetary wealth sometimes cannot accept the fact that richer people play by different rules–they have more,the make more, they pay less tax and pay more when they divorce.This last one is nothing to them and so it should be nothing to you too.

MJ says they are friends. So did y’all just skip this bit or …………what gives?

Yet STILL we see biterness. Why?

Very few people here have worked out that

a) MJ will make it all back in a few yrs
b) These mega rich folks have so much, it doesn’t matter who gets what
c) The kids will get most of it in the end
d) Despite the millions, this marriage hurt these two emotionally and that we should understand that sometimes in folks marriages, it is not about material things. Shit can cut you and hurt your soul much deeper than any amount you get or give will be able to heal.

They seem to have parted in good faith so i wish them well.

@#114

I didn’t see your post b4 i posted but i agree with you about the value of his IMAGE. People are only looking at it as ‘he’s the one who played ball” without realising that a lot of the money he has, came from sponsors who knew they could make a killing marketing him and that clean cut family man image he had/has.

And this is why whoever said maybe Mike begged her several times not to leave could be right. Their divorce (especially if she had filed due to adultery) would have eventually opened the door to all the women to come out with their stories. Goodbye IMAGE. Goodbye endorsements.

You must be a fan of mine because you have dudes here that made blanket statements about all black women and you gravitated towards me, lmao. Now you must either be a feminist black man or a masculine black woman. Either way, it makes no difference because they’re the same confused creature. You’re not even intelligent enough to get offended and know why you’re offended much less be able to articulate it. The fact of the matter is that marriage as an institution in America is a sham, it has been for a while, and it will continue to deteriorate. There’s too much competition instead of cooperation between the genders. Idiots like yourself can try to deflect the attention on people that tell the truth but it is what it is. Soon “gay marriage” will have more prevalence and relevance to this satanic society than marriage between a man and woman, especially a black man and woman.

I’m talking about the topic at hand and the degeneration of marriage. If you want to debate me on the topic at hand then do so. You will lose. The scripture details that iniquity will abound and that the homosexuals will “declare their sin as Sodom”, meaning they will be given rights to the point where they will be bold with their evil.

BLACK WOMEN GOLDIGGERS WAIT UNTIL THE BROTHER GETS PAID. MOST WHITE PEOPLE HAVE SCHEMES, THEY ARE ALWAYS PLOTTING THEIR NEXT MOVE WHILE OUR PEOPLE REMAIN CRABS IN A BARREL, AND TRYING TO OUT DO ONE ANOTHER, THAT IS WHY THE WHITE RACE CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THE WORLD ECONOMY, ESPECIALLY IN THE UNITED STATES. MOST OF US FOCUS ON BEING RICH, WHILE OTHERS FOCUS ON WEALTH. HAVING A 65,000 TRUCK WHILE YOU ARE PAYING RENT, ISN’T ABOUT NOTHING.

JAUNITA WAS MAKING MONEY BEFORE MICHEAL WAS. SHE IS NOT SOME SHOPPING HOUSEWIFE, WHO WAITS FOR HER HUSBAND TO BRING HOME THE DOUGH. I AM A HUGE MICHEAL JORDAN FAN, BUT ON A PERSONAL NOTE HE DID NOT DO RIGHT BY HIS WIFE. THAT MONEY IS NOT GOING TO EVEN AFFECT MICHEAL AT ALL.
