Michael Jackson pic Michael Jackson appeared at a star-studded World Music Awards in London last night, but only managed to join a group of kids onstage for a few minutes and, in a cracking voice, sang a couple of lines from "We Are The World". Even with the short performance he forgot the words.

Jackson was at the event to collect a Diamond Award for selling more than 100 million albums. But what was billed as a spectacular comeback for the world's biggest star fell flat and the King of Pop was booed off the stage. His big song "Thriller" was performed by Chris Brown.

Michael Jackson: Stop Him! Before He Adopts Again

Posted by Fara Kearnes at 2:06 AM | Permalink | Comments ( 0 )

Currently looking to add to his assortment of three white kids, Michael Jackson has been shopping around orphanages in Japan to possibly pick out another kid. Or two.

Fox News columnist Roger Friedman is reporting: "His trip to Japan was not all about publicity and quick self-gratification for a dimmed star with no fans. He toured orphanages. I'm told he's looking for children to add to his current collection of three."

His other kids are Prince Michael, 9, Paris, 8, and Prince Michael II, 4. The pop star is in a legal battle with ex-wife Debbie Rowe over custody of the two older kids and there's rumored to be some explosive revelations due sometime soon. No one knows where Jackson got the third child.

MJ finding Neverland too expensive

Posted by Melanie McKane at 11:32 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 0 )

Troubled pop prince Michael Jackson has closed his home on the Neverland Ranch in an attempt to save money.

Jackson, who currently lives in Bahrain, has laid off many of his staff but has agreed to settle an outstanding $300,000 wage bill after he was fined for allowing his insurance to lapse.

The $170,000 fine was imposed in January by authorities, who ordered staff to stop working immediately until the issue was resolved.

Some parts of Jackson�s estate are to remain open as staff employed by third parties (and are therefore insured) have been allowed to continue working and security for the estate is being handled by the Jackson family.

Jermaine Jackson's Tell-All Was Squashed by Michael

Posted by Fara Kearnes at 10:53 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 0 )

According to Jermaine Jackson, brother Michael used a "sperm doctor" to help his ex-wife conceived his two children. The information was revealed in a book proposal the pop star's older brother made in 2003. Michael Jackson threatened to sue his brother and ban him from the family if the book was ever published.

The eight-page synopsis, obtained by the New York Daily News, for Jermaine's unpublished book, "Legacy: Surviving the Best and the Worst," is a contradiction to Jacko's often-made claim that he himself fathered both Prince Michael I, 9, and daughter Paris, 7, in "the natural way".

Jermaine's book proposal alleges that Michael paid several million dollars to Debbie for carrying the artificially inseminated babies. In the outline, Jermaine wrote: "My brother purchased children... It is like a sanctioned black market."
