  • Trivia
    When son Micky received his first royalty check from The Monkees (which he described later as having "a dollar sign followed by a telephone number"), he turned to Janelle to help him invest it wisely. She put his money into relatively secure stocks and holdings, which weathered Micky through some dry years after the Monkees ended, and left him with the most to show financially, from the band. He in turn looked after his family.
