NEVERLAND RANCH MIGHT BE TURNED INTO A MUSIC SCHOOL!

Michael Jackson's legendary estate "Neverland Ranch" may be turned into a haven for teenage musicians.
TMZ.com reported that Colony Capital, which owned the ranch before the pop singer's untimely death, reportedly wants to turn the ranch into a music institute modeled after Juilliard, the prestigious music school in New York City.

The plan, TMZ reported, is to teach writing and performing for many different genres of music to teenagers across the economic spectrum.

Since his death, different ideas for Neverland Ranch have been floated by numerous interested parties.

In July, the NAACP backed a plan to turn the ranch into a state park.

"I think Michael's history is world history and I think it would become the No. 1 attraction for the state parks if we could pull it off," California NAACP President Alice Huffman told The Sacremento Bee at the time.

But with the actual owners of the Ranch wanting to make the music school happen, it seems a little more likely than other plans - as long as it can overcome a few procedural issues.

Before the teens start flowing back into the ranch, Santa Barbara County reportedly has to approve the plan and Jackson's estate must allow his name to be used to promote the institute.

"It's an interesting idea," a rep for Jackson's estate told the website. "And we'd be open to it."
