I don't know how true this rumor is. But the mark under the photo says:

"Similarities: Omer, pictured as a 17-year-old in 2001, shares a likeness with Michael's youngest son Blanket" is full of lies."

Wasn't Blanket adopted?
What they are saying doesn't make sense to me at all. They are comparing photos of this 17 year old with photos of Michael after a few surgeries, after he put the cleft in his chin. They do look alike, but shouldn't they be comparing pictures of Michael pre-op?
 
has anyone heard anything new on MJ's burial?

I saw an interview clip of his brother Jermaine during the news a couple of days ago, the family members are still fighting amongst themselves regarding the final resting place.

It's shameful his remains are still in limbo,good god in two days he'll be dead a month.It appears some family members are insisting he be placed at Neverland and others are dead set against that option.Turning Neverland into another Graceland would generate big bucks while placing him somewhere such as Hollywood Cemetery would be of no monetary value.God only knows which side of the family will win out on this issue :rolleyes:.
 
what the hell man? He still hasn't been buried

God, creamate him or something!! This is money being wasted as Im sure it costs just to keep him in the morgue!!

All this stuff should have been included in a will. When my father passed, he had already purchased a plot and because he was a veteran the casket was already covered. Only think we had to do was find a place to hold the funeral.
 
^^ Jermaine is bankrupt, he may not want to let it go. From 2007:

Jermaine's off the hook because the judge could not verify any income for the Jackson brother, though his ex-wife Alejandra claims he made money off a UK version of "Big Brother" and got $150,000 from Prince Abdul in the Middle East -- which Jermaine called a "loan."

Jackson's mother was ordered to continue paying for the children's expenses and must let Alejandra continue to live in their home for free. The next hearing will take place September 24.

TMZ caught Jermaine on his way into Stanley Mosk Courthouse, where he was none to happy to see our cameras -- even flipping us off to prove it!

This is a very informative and beautiful article about Michael by two Music executives Cory Rooney and Chris Apostle. It tells of the real michael they know.... the professional performer, the abused child and philantropist

CYInterview.com
 
As soon as Michael passed I read an article that stated Jermaine and two of the other brothers hadn't talked in three years due to a dispute over a sum close to $800,000.00 they claimed Michael owed them and had refused to settle.Money has a way of bringing out the worst in some people and this family is a prime example.
The only two in this family with real talent was Michael and Janet,the rest were just tag alongs.

He is "buried", they are fighting over his final resting place. Right now his body is at Barry Gordy's family's masoleum.
 
^^ No, they moved it for some reason. He was at Berry Gordy's crypt at Forest Lawn's Hollywood Hills location. But he's now at Forest Lawn Memorial Park's Glendale location. Safety reasons, maybe?
 
jermane just wants to make money thats why he want mike at neverland i also hear marlon was bankrupt and was evicted from his san diego home . the only jackson doing well is jackie he saved all his money . i got all this info from the daily 10 and e news

Michael said in an interview that Blanket was conceived using his own sperm with a surrogate mother. I heard on the news, they are speculating that Omer's mom was the surrogate. They did compare a pic of Blanket and Omer, when he was Blankets age, and they look just alike. I also heard that Omer is seeking a paternity test, but doesn't know if he will get it because then he would be another heir of Michaels and the Jacksons will get less.

Is Omer Bhatti Michael Jackson's Fourth Child? - ABC News

British newspapers are alleging that Omer Bhatti, a 25-year-old dancer and aspiring rapper from Oslo, Norway, who once traveled the world with Michael Jackson, lived at the singer's Neverland ranch and was referred to by the Jackson family as "Michael J," is really a fourth child of Jackson's.

According to The Sun, Bhatti is believed to be seeking a DNA test to find out the truth.

Bhatti has features similar to Jackson and shares an uncanny resemblance with his youngest son Prince II, known as Blanket.

One thing is for sure: Bhatti, who was seated on the front row at Jackson's memorial service next to Jackson's children and siblings, occupies a special place in the Jackson family.

In Vienna Wednesday, Jackson's brother Jermaine said Bhatti would be welcomed into the family, if he's proven a Jackson.

"If Omer's his son, he's his son," Jermaine told Britain's the Daily Mail. 'We won't deny it. We are going to give him the same love and care that we give Prince and Paris and Blanket. I can't clearly say if he is Michael's but I saw this kid around him."

Jermaine said Jackson's eldest sister Rebbie seated Bhatti up front next to the family.

"My sister went and got him during the service and got him to sit closer to my mother," Jermaine said.

Since the memorial service, Bhatti has remained in Los Angeles and been seen playing at the Jackson family compound with Michael's three children -- Prince, Paris and Prince II -- according to the Daily Mail.

Stacy Brown, a Jackson biographer who once worked as a family spokesman, said he first began hearing about Bhatti in 1992, when he would have been 8.

"He would tell them [the Jackson family] that he was Michael's son," Brown said. "The fact is he is not Michael's son."

And no, his mother's name is not Billie Jean, the title of Jackson's pop hit in which he famously sang, "The kid is not my son."

Bhatti's mother, Pia, worked as Jackson's first nanny, taking care of Prince, according to Brown. His father, Biz, reportedly worked as one of Jackson's drivers.

Following Jackson's death on June 25, Pia told a reporter: "He was the King of Pop. But for us he was so much more."

Since then, the parents, who returned to Oslo, have refused to answer reporters' questions about Bhatti's parentage.

"Michael took him [Bhatti] in and took his parents in, he would travel the world with him," Brown said. "He lived at Neverland for a long time and moved out when Michael left Neverland."

"Maybe Michael loved him like a son, treated him like a son, and maybe he [Bhatti] felt like Michael was really his father," said Stuart Backerman, a former family spokesman. "But I just don't buy that he's his son."

Backerman believes if Bhatti really were Jackson's son, Jackson long ago would have acknowledged it, especially in light of how close he was to his three children.

In 2004, Us Weekly reported that Jackson did, indeed, acknowledge that he was the father. A source told the magazine: "Jackson has told his closest associates Omer's mom's was a Norwegian with whom he had a one-night stand."

An ex-Jackson associate who requested anonymity told ABCNews.com he remembered Bhatti from his days at Neverland.

"He was this kid who fawned over Michael Jackson on a trip overseas, so he became one of Michael's 'little friends,'" the former associate said. "When Michael met a new friend the parents often come along. His parents worked at Neverland for a while. It wasn't Michael's kid. This elaborate 'Billie Jean' scenario is ridiculous. Don't you think he would turn up in the will?"

"Nobody called him Omer, they called him Michael J.," said Brown. "Ever since he was a little boy he would make himself up to look like Michael. They would wear the same -- hat, pants, shoes, even socks. Michael loved it."

Now he's an aspiring rapper who goes by the stage name O-Bee.

He also has remained a staunch defender of Jackson. Bhatti was living at Neverland when Los Angeles police raided the estate in 2003 looking for evidence of child molestation.

An investigator later testified before a grand jury that Bhatti became nervous when he was asked about pornography.

He "seemed to have trouble forming a sentence. It was almost like a stutter," the investigator, Jeffrey Ellis, said on the stand.

Ellis testified that when he questioned Bhatti about the consumption of wine and alcohol, referred to as "Jesus Juice," he saw "that same type of uneasiness in him that I noticed when I started talking to him about pornography."

Last year, Bhatti recalled the day police swooped in.
