MORE JACKSON NEWS

THE PARENTAGE OF MICHAEL JACKSON'S KIDS GETS EVEN MORE CLOUDY . . . NOW DEBBIE ROWE MIGHT NOT BE THEIR REAL MOTHER:

We've all heard the rumors that MICHAEL JACKSON is not the biological father of his three kids. Now, here's a new wrinkle: There's talk that DEBBIE ROWE isn't the biological mother of the two eldest children.

Yes, Debbie carried both 12-year-old Prince Michael and 11-year-old Paris in her womb. But this new rumor claims they were created in vitro . . . which means OUTSIDE of Debbie's body. And supposedly, she didn't supply the egg. (--There's no word who did.)

Debbie's attorney is strongly denying this. She says, quote, "We refuse to be drawn into addressing the various rumors and speculation swirling in the media. The vast majority of what is out there is untrue. -"Particularly hurtful and insidious is the most recent rumor . . . which is entirely false . . . concerning the maternity of the children. Ms. Rowe is the biological mother of the two oldest children."

Meanwhile, "Us Weekly" claims that the real father of Prince and Paris is Debbie's former boss and Michael's former dermatologist, Dr. Arnold Klein. -A so-called "Jackson insider" says, quote, "He is the dad. He and Debbie signed an agreement saying they would never reveal the truth." -

As for the youngest child, Prince Michael the Second . . . he was also conceived in vitro, and born to a surrogate mother who was, presumably, the biological parent. But Michael . . . (--once again, ALLEGEDLY) . . . was NOT the sperm donor.

Klein's attorney issued the following statement in response to this chaos . . . quote, "Dr. Klein is aware of media reports connecting him to Michael Jackson. Because of patient confidentiality Dr. Klein will make no statement on any reports or allegations. --"Like millions of Michael's fans around the world, Dr. Klein is saddened by Michael's death and extends his condolences to Michael's family."

IF Michael isn't the biological father of any of these children, that brings up an interesting issue. According to TMZ, Michael never filed papers to adopt any of these kids. --Which means that the actual biological parents . . . whomever they may be . . . could conceivably have a stronger claim to them. (--It's not clear if the mother of Prince Michael the Second knew she was carrying a baby for Michael Jackson. Supposedly, the kid was scooped up from the hospital by an attorney just a few days after he was born.)

DO POLICE WANT TO QUESTION MICHAEL JACKSON'S DERMATOLOGIST???

Another one of MICHAEL JACKSON'S doctors might be on the list of people the LAPD wants to interview. That would be Dr. Arnold Klein . . . Michael's longtime dermatologist, and now the alleged biological father of Michael's two eldest children. Supposedly, the cops want to talk to Klein about drugs he may have prescribed or given to Michael. But Klein's attorney says, quote, "Dr. Klein has not been contacted by any governmental agency with request for an interview."

On a related note, RadarOnline.com is reporting that Michael was visiting Klein's office three or four times a month for some kind of "treatment". The last time was about a week before Michael's death.

THERE WILL BE A MEMORIAL SERVICE AT NEVERLAND THIS WEEKEND:

There will be some kind of memorial service for MICHAEL JACKSON at the Neverland Ranch this weekend. The Santa Barbara Sheriff's Department is already coordinating with the California Highway Patrol on issues like traffic and crowd control.

Michael's body is expected to be transported from L.A. to the ranch TOMORROW. --Details haven't been released yet, but so-called "sources" say a public service, with Michael's body "lying in state", may take place on Friday . . . followed by a private service on Sunday.

The Jackson Family has already denied that Michael will be buried at Neverland. But TMZ claims that a CEMENT TRUCK arrived there yesterday.

Here are two people who won't be attending Michael's funeral: Producer QUINCY JONES and Michael's now-infamous physician, Dr. Conrad Murray. Murray's attorney says he's currently ISOLATING HIMSELF. -As for Quincy, he just can't deal. He says, quote, "I won't go to any more funerals as long as I live. I can't handle it."

THREE OLD MICHAEL JACKSON ALBUMS SOLD OVER 100,000 COPIES *EACH* LAST WEEK:

Old MICHAEL JACKSON albums have been selling like crazy since his death last Thursday. That isn't all that surprising . . . but we're hearing that the sales numbers for a few of his albums are pretty insane.

According to "Billboard", three of his albums . . . the 1982 classic, "Thriller", and the greatest hits discs "Number Ones" and "The Essential Michael Jackson" . . . sold around 100,000 copies EACH last week.

As you might expect, a significant portion of those album sales were DIGITAL. --Each of those three albums sold more than 30,000 copies through online retailers last week. (--Last week's numbers include sales from Monday, June 22nd, through this past Sunday. Obviously most of the purchases happened AFTER Michael's death on Thursday . . . since no one randomly buys music without a specific reason anymore.)

For comparison, Michael's ENTIRE catalog sold just 10,000 copies in the previous week. --If you haven't been following the music charts lately, those numbers are pretty big.

For example, last week's #1 album . . . (--which won't be officially announced until later today) . . . is expected to be the BLACK EYED PEAS' disc, "The E.N.D.", and it is NOT projected to make it to the 100,000 sales mark.

None of Michael's albums were eligible to top the Billboard 200, though, because they're too old. That chart only includes albums that have been released in the last 18 months. --Instead, Michael's sales numbers will be reflected on the Billboard Top Pop Catalog chart . . . which is for sales of older releases. Michael is expected to DOMINATE it.

The record for the most simultaneous albums on the Top 10 of that chart is FIVE . . . which is held by both THE BEATLES and AC/DC. If you count JACKSON 5 albums, Michael has a decent chance to take ALL 10 spots.) MICHAEL JACKSON RANDOMS:
