Following reports yesterday alleging that Michael Jackson is gravely ill, the King of Pop’s spokesman has issued a press release shooting down the claims:
Michael Jackson’s spokesperson is denying a report that the artist is ill with a serious lung disease, calling the claim “a total fabrication.”
In a recent interview with In Touch, author Ian Halperin said Jackson, 50, is suffering from Alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency, which can be fatal. Halperin is the author of a forthcoming unauthorized biography of Jackson.
“Concerning this author’s allegations, we would hope in the future that legitimate media will not continue to be exploited by such an obvious attempt to promote this unauthorized ‘biography,'” said Dr. Tohme Tohme, described in a statement as Jackson’s “official and sole spokesperson.”
“The writer’s wild allegations concerning Mr. Jackson’s health are a total fabrication,” Tohme added.
The statement concludes with word that Jackson is “in fine health” and is “finalizing negotiations with a major entertainment company and television network for both a world tour and a series of specials and appearances.” {Source}
It’s great to hear that Michael isn’t being idle and is cooking up something special for the fans. It is even better to know that he is in good health; the lengths some people will go to sell something. SMH…
Your thoughts?
great for you
LOVE THE JACKSON’S BUT YOU SEE THERE IS ONLY TWO COMMENTS YOU KNOW WHY….? BECAUSE DON’T NOBODY CARE ABOUT MICHAEL’S ASS. HE HAS DONE TO MUCH I BELIEVE TO SALVAGE HIS CAREER. AND IF DOES COME BACK I THINK IT WILL BE HARD FOR HIM TO BACK WHAT HE ONCE HAD. BLESS HIM.
Oh people care… people WILL care when we hear more on this tour. And other thangs, trust me.
