Two weeks ago, rumors began circulating that a Norwegian dancer, Omer Bhatti, is the secret son of Michael Jackson, a love child resulting from the King of Pop's one-night stand with his mother, Pia Bhatti, a quarter-century ago.
Speculation then increased when photos surfaced of Omer Bhatti sitting with Jackson's brothers at his memorial service July 7, and when it was revealed that Bhatti lived at Neverland Ranch with Jackson when he was a kid.
But last week, according to The Mirror (UK), Omer said that while he and the star were very close, and he was "like a son" to him, they are not related.
That made sense ... at least as much as anything regarding Michael Jackson can. But now, Michael's insane father, Joe, is weighing in on the subject.
In an interview with NewsOne, Joe Jackson is now saying Michael Jackson is the father of Omer Bhatti, and that he always knew Omer as his son.
Compelling, yes. But there are a couple of problems with this account:
- Joe Jackson is typically not lucid.
- When Joe Jackson does have a coherent thought, it more than likely is based around a shameless attempt to cash in on someone or something.
More than likely, Joe either has no clue where he is at this moment, or is angling to make money off of this story somehow. A pimp always finds a way.
The kid himself has explained the relationship with Michael, and with a lack of anything more concrete to go on, it's still hard to believe that the 25-year-old is the secret love child of Michael Jackson. Oh, and Omer Bhatti is WHITE, people.
Here's the recent Joe Jackson interview in question ...

UM, Michael Jackson is also white.
Seriously though, the mother is Nordic and mixed kids can have any range of skin color, even within the same family.
In any case, the only way to know for sure is with a paternity test.

Jean,
You NEED to know that using CAPS is for EMPHASIS ONLY. Using it in regular type gives a person a headache. You also need to learn how to SPELL, as well as to coherently string together relevant words to MAKE A PROPER SENTENCE. If your communication skills are still unble to surpass those of Cheetah (Tarzan's pet chimpanzee), then obviously you have no locus standi in commenting on major issues such as this.

MJ is not at Neverland you twat! He doesnt own it anymore! No one bought it back to burry him there. Dumb ASS! Im with Dwayne(never thought id hear myself say that) your opinion doesnt count jean!

Jojo you're also a dumb ass! MJ was not born white, he bleached his skin. Yes mixed race children can be born lighter but VERY VERY EXTREMELY RARELY are they born WHITE! Look at his 3 other mixed race children. Because the father bleached his skin doesnt mean the kids come out with bleached skin too!

Today it was announced that Michael Jackson’s mother, Katherine will receive custody of Michael’s children. I found a great article that explains everything. Ex-wife and mother to Prince Michael and Paris, Debbie Rowe, will receive “meaningful visitation rights”. Hopefully this is what is best for the children! Check out the article here:

Amber,
Michael had vitiglo, therefore he only bleached his skin to make his skin tone even, and when you have vitiglo it can change your DNA from black to white .

The continued ignorance always amazes me. Maybe young mister bhatti denial is to prevent him from being hounded like MJ. Did you ever think this was the father and son's way of keeping him from getting pummeled by the paprazzi and scummy press that ruined MJ's life?
If it is true, leave it to selfish Joe Jackson to let the cat out the bag...what a opportunist creep. RIP Michael-wherever you are!

It's funny how this website was fast to accept supposed quotes from Omer via his friend, but now that Joe is saying Omer is in fact the father of Omer, you are listing "problems with this account." Is it a problem, or do you want to continue being a "credible" source? I'll be the first to admit that Joe doesn't always seem sincere, but you have to wonder why he would say Omer is Michael's son when Omer is supposed to be just a really good friend.
