Michael Jackson Manager Frank DiLeo Dies
. DiLeo worked his way from the bottom of the music business all the way to the top. While with Epic Records, DiLeo helped sign and develop the careers of The Clash, Quiet Riot, REO Speedwagon, Cyndi Lauper and Culture Club � in addition to his work with the King of Pop. DiLeo managed Jackson during the '80s, and again at the end of his career, before the star's death in 2009. He also managed Richie Sambora and worked with Prince many times.

His most famous role was as Tuddy Cicero in Martin Scorsese's Goodfellas. more on this story Gibson.com is an official news provider for the Day in Pop.
