Charlie Charleston in the Media
Herb and Andy are proud and excited to be represented exclusively by the mighty super-star manager Charlie Charleston. The co-founder and CEO of Monkey Business Management & CO. co:nut has been an icon in the entertainment industry for many decades.
A close friend of Tarzan in his youth Charlie was no stranger to the entertainment industry. But it was more instinct than knowledge that gave him enough foresight to sign King Kong for the big screen last century.
And whilst creating such a vast fortune would have been enough for many a primate Charlie just kept on doing what he was doing: He remained with his fingers, nose and ear close to the Zeitgeist. And when digital hit the market for the 1st time big in the 80ties it was again Charlie who sealed the biggest deal. This time signing the original Donkey Kong for Atari.
Feared by his competitors and praised by his peers Charlie single handedly pretty much revolutionised (if not created) the entertainment industry. His achievements have been recognised by international forums, associations and all media on both sides of the pond.
Success at such scale inevitably attracts gossip and rumours and although it was never confirmed the alleged affair with Bubbles behind Michael Jackson's back still divides his large fan base today. Charlie himself however has never spoken about it and neither has Bubbles.
Charlie did however confirm he once "snuggled" with Jane, but that they both regret the encounter and attributed it to having had too much banana-schnaps that night.
