LOL the crazy rumour of the day is – get this "Macauly Culkin" the dude who played the Home Alone kid is the father of Micheal Jackson’s son Blanket.  I guess he could be the father as well as any other blond haired, blue eyed man.  The mystery here is why arn’t there women claiming to be the mother’s of these children?

Macauly Culkin is godfather to Michael Jackson’s two older children, Prince I and Paris Michael Jackson. Blanket’s real name is Prince Michael Jackson II.   The actor has reportedly told close friends he will not comment in public regarding these rumors out of loyalty to his late BFF Michael Jackson.

The pop legend – who died of a suspected cardiac arrest on June 25 – had been given surgical anaesthetic Propofol by his personal physician Dr. Conrad Murray earlier in the day and is thought to have awoken when the drugs wore off and demanded pain relief.

However, Murray was asleep at the time so one of Michael’s aides reportedly gave him a shot of powerful painkiller Demerol and the combination of the pain relief and Propofol – also known as Diprivan – is thought to have triggered a fatal heart attack.

An insider told Britain’s The Sun newspaper: "Murray would set up a system
to give Michael a steady intravenous release of Diprivan through the night. "But this time Michael woke up before Murray did and asked one of his aides for some Demerol. "The aide gave it to him, but it was too soon after receiving the anaesthetic. That’s what killed him."

When Murray – who is being investigated for manslaughter – awoke he found the 50-year-old star had stopped breathing and desperately tried to revive him. Murray is said to have confessed to Los Angeles police about administering Propofol – which should only be given in a hospital environment – two days after Michael died.

However, his lawyer has always insisted Murray denies giving the ‘Thriller’  singer anything that killed him. Michael is thought to have first taken Demerol in 1984 to help ease the pain of the burnt scalp he suffered while filming a Pepsi TV commercial.
Meanwhile, Michael’s sister La Toya believes her brother is performing for the angels in heaven. Writing on her blog, she said: "Michael, after 50 years of waiting, God has finally called you home to do what you do best. "He shared your extraordinary talent with us all for many decades and now it’s time for you to spread your wings to a much higher level, which of course I know you will do, and join the other angels and give them an incredible eternal performance."

If Michael was indeed taking Propofol to help him sleep, as some reports indicate, it would have been a serious misuse of the drug. Common as an anesthetic for colonoscopies and plastic surgery, Propofol is given intravenously and works quickly and safely – it slips patients into a deep sleep as soon as the IV is put in, but allows them to wake up easily once the IV is removed.

The powerful anesthetic is considered a clean drug, meaning that it clears the system more quickly than other anesthetics such as sodium pentothal, which tends to circulate into the blood stream once the infusion is stopped, prolonging the patient’s drowsiness.

Propofol "is short-acting: quick to sleep and quick to wake-up. It’s a wonderful, wonderful drug," says Dr. Barry L. Friedberg, an associate professor of anesthesia at UC Irvine. "People feel refreshed afterward. They don’t feel like they’ve just had surgery."  Photo: Flynet Pictures

Madonna will pay tribute to her late friend, Michael Jackson, at her Saturday concert at London’s O2 arena, on the very same stage Jackson was to kick off his comeback tour this summer.

The Material Girl will debut a special song for MJ at Saturday’s O2 arena show, the singer’s rep, Liz Rosenberg, confirms. Rehearsal photos are posted online of the tribute sequence, which features Madonna flanked by a Jackson lookalike wearing his signature white glove.

In an interview with The Sun, the 50-year-old superstar revealed she will be dedicating her forthcoming concerts to Jackson, who died last week.

She said: ‘I am so terribly sad about Michael Jackson’s death. I don’t know what artist wasn’t inspired by him.

‘To be able to do what he did at such an early age was unearthly, everybody grew up in awe of him.

‘To work with him and become friends and hang out with him was exciting for me.’
Both singers became huge solo performers in the 1980s and each performer was renowned for their on-stage dancing, huge fan following and extravagant lifestyles.
Madonna said: ‘He was a real paradox, one of the world’s greatest performers and obviously very confident on stage, but in real life he was very shy and you really felt for him.’

"I can’t stop crying over the sad news," Madonna, who was escorted to the 1991 Oscars by Jackson, said in a statement to Access Hollywood. "The world has lost one of the greats, but his music will live on forever! My heart goes out to his three children and other members of his family…God bless."

The 911 call from a member of Michael Jackson’s entourage was released, providing an insight into the pop star’s tragic final moments as he lay unconscious. On a tape released by the Los Angeles Fire Department, the unidentified male caller tells a switchboard operator that repeated attempts to revive Jackson via CPR had been unsuccessful.

The caller also tells the operator that Jackson’s personal doctor — who was reportedly being sought by police on Friday — was the only witness to the star’s collapse.  To hear the 911 call go HERE

Unmasked: Daring Michael Jackson, out shopping in Beverly Hills without his famous surgical mask

Despite the diagnosis, Michael Jackson was seen without his famous mask as he shopped for toys with his three masked children in Beverly Hills yesterday. The singer looked in good spirits on his day out, it is believed that he has been told by experts that the cancer is treatable.

And aides say that the determined star is still set to perform his 50 sell-out UK comeback concerts at London’s O2 Arena from July.
It’s believed that the disease is linked with vitiligo – a skin problem that affects pigmentation, which the star says he had been diagnosed with in the 1980’s.
Experts have warned that anyone who bleaches their skin would increase their risk of cancer, but the famously pale star , has always strongly denied doing so.

A source told The Sun: ‘Michael’s test showed spots of skin cancer on his body, and cell which could turn to skin cancer on his face.
‘He was at first very concerned, but says he has been assured by the doctors that they can treat this and he will recover.
‘Michael is really looking forward to his concerts and is determined to wow his fans at each and every gig.
‘He said he’s insisted that any treatment must fit around the concerts, and the show will go on.’

Jackson is said to have been making regular visits to a dermatologist in Beverly Hills wearing a mask and surgical cap.
And weeks ago, he was seen at the Cedar-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles, which has a specialist lab to test for such diseases.
The visit was widely reported after his car was in a collision with an ambulance when it arrived to pick him up.

It is thought he will be treated by award-winning Santa Monica-based skin cancer surgeon Dr Ralph Massey, who was educated at Cambridge.
The superstar was already facing questions over his fitness for the 50 concerts at the 20,000-capacity O2 Arena in Docklands, East London.
There are worries he is underweight and will struggle to complete the gruelling run of shows, which start on July 8.
But the star is determined to make the £150million This Is It residency work and is holed up in LA working on his dance moves.
The shows are expected to last more than two hours and are said to feature 22 different sets, many costume and a Moonwalk-style dance.
Phenomenal demand – at once stage, the website was attracting 16,000 visits a second – meant the run was expanded from 10 dates to 50.
The shows, which the Beat It singer has billed as his ‘final curtain call’, will be his first major live performances in 12 years.
His last live appearance, at the World Music Awards in 2006, ended after just a few lines.
It is the latest in a long line of reported skin problems for the star.
He was reportedly diagnosed with vitiligo and lupus, which both cause colour loss,  in the late 1980s. But it is suspected by some that the star bleached his own skin.

Last year, a fan put a skin whitening cream said to have been used by the singer up for sale on eBay.

Jackson is also thought to have had ten cosmetic surgery operations to his face, notably on his nose which has become distinctly thinner in recent years. In 2002, it began showing the first signs of disintegration.
Last night, agents representing Michael Jackson did not deny he had the illness.

A spokesman for his publicist Dita Miller said: ‘I cannot comment on this issue. I am afraid there is nothing more to add at this time.’
His New York-based lawyers, L Londell McMillan, said: ‘We don’t speak about these sorts of things. I cannot say any more.’
