Managed Holly Valance's career in its early stages. He discovered her
when she was 15 and got her the role of Flick Scully in Neighbours.
Later, in 2002, he got her a record deal but in 2003, he sued her for
breach of contract. Valance retorted by saying she wanted to go in a
different direction because Michaelson was making her image too sexy.
Ms Valance was ordered to pay £145,000 to Michaelson for loss of
earnings and management commission he would have made during the term
of their contract. During this court case, Valance and her new
management made a music video where she was seen stripping and getting
changed into a mini-skirt and ripped top.
