All the talk in the media about whether he was the children's biological father.... Surely all that matters is that he adored them and they clearly loved him very much.

I think some fans are desperate to think that Michael passed on his DNA to his children. It would be nice to think that he did. To me, they don't resemble the Jacksons in anyway, but you are right, he definitely adored them and brought them up so well.

Lol! And just how do know this? Media reports? Or perhaps you were there when they were each conceived? Since his family seems uncertain of this information I'm not sure how you've come across such privileged knowledge.

ETA: Blanket, imo, looks very much like Michael, more so than Prince & Paris, & quite a few people have said the same thing. Either way, it's nobody's business.

and what proof do you have that he is the biological father of those kids? because they look alike? we have to come up with something better than that.

just because folks think they look alike doesn't mean they do. just like someone would need to have witnessed the conception, some of us would need the confirmed paternity results to believe such a thing.

bottom line, we dont know if they are biologically his kids or not. So to shoot down someone's opinion is just as hypocritical.

Isn't that great? It's a still pic from the Smooth Criminal video. MJ invented these special shoes with a device in the bottom to hold his body in place while he leaned forward. There's some sort of knobs that come up from the floor that attach to the bottom of his shoes where he's standing. The move is even more amazing in his live concerts.

But they had that image on TV the other night and said that it was done with wiring - not special shoes. Seems as though there's conflicting stories on just about everything surrounding MJ.

How the He** did she go through that kind of $$$ in such a short period of time that she needs yet a THIRD huge influx of cash???

Not surprising, though. I knew the only reason she resurfaced was to get some more money out of the family. She has no desire to be in these kids' lives.

I think the reason she keeps surfacing is that he was not continuing to pay her, as per their deal. (She was supposed to get a certain sum a year.) It wouldn't be the first time, MJ turned his back on his debts and he did it with her too.

Apparently, she had to make sure she would continue to get her cheque, which is fair, if that's what the initial agreement was. She certainly fulfilled her part of the agreement.

There's no wiring. I watched the actual video and his concert performance in slow motion and I could see the knobs retracting back into the floor when the dancers moved from their spots. 2 knobs per shoe. I saw one of his friends explaning how MJ invented these shoes for that move in an interview so I had to go home and watch it in slow motion to see. :)

You're saying this as if you're sure. How do you know this without any testing being done. If you're basing this off looks alone, you could be wrong. Have you seen Rashida Jones from I love you man? She has no so called "black" traits whatsover, and Quincy Jones IS her biological father.

Rashida Jones looks like her gorgeous mother, Peggy Lipton, who I loved, back in the day, when she was on The Mod Squad. She looks a bit like Q too - she got the best of both, but mostly her mom, who is stunning.

Technically, Rashida Jones is Jewish, because her mother is Jewish.

This morning I was listening to the radio and there was an interview with the author of Unmasked (I think that's the title) new released book about MJ's later life

Has anyone read the book? Are you planning on buying it?

The author seems to just want to make $$ off of this but he claimed MJ wanted to come out to the world and reveal what his last moments of his life were like. He had many things to say such as MJ being gay, how he went undercover as a hairdresser to find out what MJ's hair really looks like, that he really did bleach his skin..
I thought it could have been done more tastefully and was all about promoting the book. :/ This guy sounds shady.

This guy looks shady! His Elvis glasses make him look like a caricature, why would he want to appear so untrustworthy if he is shilling his book in interviews every night on TV? :shrugs:

Apparently though, he's supposed to be a respected journalist? Can't be...

Oh I agree!! I had never heard of him before but I googled right after I had heard the radio interview. He doesn't seem like a respected writer. I may not know much about him, but he said that he gets death threats all the time. To me it seems like he's just one step up from perez hilton and writes in the form of books not a blog. What he had to say about MJ was not the same as speakers at the memorial..it didn't sound respectful at all and I sure don't believe what he has to say about MJ bleaching his skin, being gay. He went undercover to research this stuff! wtf?? Just so weird....

Amen to that! When Paris said MJ was the best daddy anyone could ever ask for, that was all I needed to hear and frankly that's all that matters. MJ was an icon, an idol, and a humanitarian to millions, but he was those 3 kids daddy and I don't think anyone will miss him more than his kids. Whether he's the biological father or not is irrelevant. Would he have loved the kids more? No. It was an unconditional love and bond that can never be replaced.

ETA: There's never going to be another MJ. Yes, he was a musical genius, but he was also a humanitarian that donated hundreds of millions of dollars to make the world a better place. He even donated the 1.5 million dollar settlement from the Pepsi accident to the Brotman Medical Center. Who does that? These days, we have a ton of the athletes and actors *****ing and whining because they think they're not getting paid enough. Boo freakin hoo. You're not getting paid that extra million dollars a year. Get over yourselves.
