The Kid is Not His Son, Or Is He?

The kid is not his son … or is he?

Rumors abound over whether Omer Bhatti, who is not a kid anymore, but a 25-year-old Norwegian dancer, is Michael Jackson's son and the offspring of an alleged one-night stand the King of Pop had with Bhatti's mother in 1984, the New York Daily News reports.

Fueling the speculation is that Bhatti sat at the end of the row with Jackson's brothers at his memorial service in Los Angeles and he and his family lived at the Neverland Ranch for a period in the 1990s, the Daily News reported.

According to The Sun, a London tabloid, Jackson's older brother Jermaine said of Bhatti:

"If Omer's his son, he's his son. We won't deny it. We are going to give him the same amount of 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."

The Sun gossips that Omer's mother, Pia, and her husband, Riz, worked for Jackson as a nanny and driver, respectively.

"I told my wife, 'Just wait until the press see this. It's not a small thing'," Riz told the Sun.

"Make what you like. I don't want to discuss anything."

I doubt M.J. ever fathered anything. I'm also very weary of all things relating to M.J.

The same thing happened when Elvis died! His children were thought to be everywhere! Some were even bold enough to come forward and claim to be his child hoping to get a cut of his money and estate. Nothing was ever proven, though, and Lisa Marie is his only legitimate child.

Who really gives f----k but omer?I never judged the man because here say gets people jailed killed and ruins lives but the man is dead and only people who worship false idols are the ones hanging on to this glorious figure they cooked up in thier head. I lived on the samr street as johnny paycheck, sammy smith bob white {inventor of the ninth and tenth pedal on the steel guitar played for bob wills and the texas play boys . these people hung out with conway twitty porter wagnor . I discovered at a early time in my life they are just people who sing songs for a living and when they werent working didnt want to be around the public.Most people in the music business lead a dramatic and corruptive life. The public sees all thier material thing s and envy them. When in fact after so many years you might be surprised to find out how many would give up that lifestyle to be a non famous person. BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR.

As always, whenever there is a lot of money involved, there will be claims, counter-claims and infighting for years. Look at all the hoopla over Anna Nicole Smith's daughter. Do you think any of those men really cared about the baby? It was the money the baby would have and taking care of the child meant control of the money. Same thing here.

This kid might be a biological son, but that is probably it. Why would we care. If MJ promised him something, but he has no rights to anything by my thinking.

A legitimate son would have full rights as an heir. If he proves to be then he will be taken care of by the Jackson family. They apparently know something or the young man would not have been on the front row at the memorial with the family.
