Michael Jackson Mystery Unravels

Editorial

The biggest bombshell so far has been the claims by Debbie Rowe, the mother of Jackson's two oldest children, that Michael wasn't actually the biological father. Speaking with Britain's News of the World, she said that she was inseminated with another man's sperm. "Michael was divorced, lonely and wanted children", she claimed. "I was the one who said to him, 'I will have your babies'. I was just the vessel. It wasn't Michael's sperm. I got paid for it, and I've moved on. I know I will never see my children again". She went on to say she never actually slept with the singer during their marriage. The fate of Jackson's three children remains in limbo.

A common theme emerging from all the stories currently doing the rounds is that Jackson really wasn't well, physically or mentally. A former nanny, Grace Rwaramba, has claimed he would regularly need his stomach pumped after overdosing on painkillers, and the general consensus is Jackson was in no shape to perform the 50 shows he had been booked to play in the UK. Indeed, reports only a few weeks back had Jackson complaining about the shows and saying he only signed on to do 10 shows.

Sadly, we're pretty sure things are going to get stranger (and sadder) as the details about his last few years emerge in the coming weeks and months.
