Biographer Claims Michael Jackson Seriously Ill, MJ’s Reps Deny It

It started as a U.K. tabloid report sourcing an unofficial biographer, but it’s grown into one of today’s most talked about news items — Michael Jackson is rumored to be battling an illness that has left him half-blind and in dire need of a lung transplant. According to Jackson biographer Ian Halperin, the singer is suffering from a disease called Alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency, or A1AD, a genetic disorder that depletes a protein that protects both the liver and lungs. Jackson is reportedly suffering from chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, 95 percent blindness in his left eye and emphysema, one of the major symptoms of A1AD. Halperin says the illness has left Jackson barely able to speak and adds, “He needs a lung transplant, but may be too weak to go through with it.”

This evening, Jackson’s “official and sole spokesperson,” Dr. Tohme Tohme, issued a statement on the singer’s behalf that paints Halperin’s assertions as a mere publicity stunt: “The writer’s wild allegations concerning Mr. Jackson’s health are a total fabrication. Mr. Jackson is in fine health, and finalizing negotiations with a major entertainment company & television network for both a world tour and a series of specials and appearances.”

Rolling Stone did some digging today and determined that many of Halperin’s other assertions don’t hold up. The first line of Halperin’s biography reads “Ian Halperin is also a former winner of the Rolling Stone magazine Award for Investigative Journalism.” This came as news to us, so we looked in our own archives and discovered this claim has been greatly exaggerated: He did win an RS honor, but it was the College Journalism Award in 1985 and it was split among the staff at Concordia University’s student newspaper in Montreal. Halperin also co-wrote a pair of “Kurt Cobain was murdered, maybe” books, scandalous biographies about James Taylor and Celine Dion (title: Behind The Fairytale – A Very, Very, Unauthorized Biography) and a new book called Hollywood Undercover: Revealing the Sordid Secrets of Tinseltown (not exactly The Greatest Generation).

Still, Halperin’s claims are intriguing: Jackson was seen in a wheelchair earlier this year and The Sun quotes his brother Jermaine saying, “He’s not doing so well right now. This isn’t a good time.” Plus, Jackson did claim to be sick when he was avoiding that whole Bahrain lawsuit trial in London. We put out calls to Halperin but have yet to get a response.

Its Over | 12/22/2008, 3:30 pm EST

Michael Jackson’s time is over. He was amazing and did great things for music but his personal problems, both money and legal overshadow what he has done.

Having said that wish improving health.

Invincible | 12/22/2008, 3:44 pm EST

Michael Jackson is the king of pop, the worlds best dancer and singer and we in Europe love you. I hope you will make a new album and world tour. We will see you dancing and singing.

Could this be publicity for his auction and to promote his biography? After all, it was the biographer that leaked this info. If he is sick, I wish him well.

Anonymous | 12/22/2008, 5:54 pm EST

a few years ago it was revealed that micheal’s press people planted those wierd stories about the elephant bones, elizabeth taylor, etc. so this is just more of the same. same hype but it gets old.he thinks any press is good press. old adage btw.

Some of these comments are not only the epitome of cruelness and ignorance… they’re just plain sick.

And I blame the media, the sickest ones of them all.

friend | 12/22/2008, 7:43 pm EST

A ha ha ha ha.
Michael’s spokesperson just issued a statement saying that the legit media should investigate their “sources” before reporting tabloid trash. MJ’s spokesperson says he’s in good health. All is well with MichaelJackson. Yay.
I cannot beleve someone who is to be a respected journalist would stoop so low to sell an UNAUTHORIZED book.

We still love you Michael! Be strong as always!

Best wishes from Canada.

Elizabeth | 12/22/2008, 9:33 pm EST

I’d believe that MJ didn’t have an illness which leaves him unable to speak… if he denied it instead of his spokesperson.

Michael,

Use the power of your mind and spirit to overcome these latest health challenges! Ascend to a place of happiness,peace, and contentment!Dance in the courtyard once again! You Will endured because you are loved not only by your fans, but by God Almighty!

captainwalnut | 12/23/2008, 9:22 am EST

WOW, I can’t believe how many bleeding heart supporters are out there for a washed up, plasticized, egomaniacal child molester. Yes, Wacko Jacko had some great songs (or was it Quincy Jones all along?), but his legacy is forever tainted by… the young taints he’s tickled.

Margot | 12/23/2008, 10:23 am EST

Very happy to hear Michael is ok – we await the comeback of the century. Never underestimate the enormous talent of this man – he is music’s living legend for a reason. How sad that so many people have gotten used to mediocrity. How sad that so many are blinded by the myth of Wacko Jacko and are unable to see the real person behind all that rubbish. We have people making light about death and talking about allegations they know nothing about. Well, no one escapes misfortune and life will teach you better.

westmonster | 12/23/2008, 10:26 am EST

Unknown -learn to type using proper diction and grammar your stylized gibberish is painful to read. HB -you are clearly insane. Like someone else noted its amazing how Michael still has any fans. He clearly molested children and attempted to intoxicate them prior, as he admitted to filling coke cans with wine.

Really, we’re sick of Michael’s crazy ridiculousness.

westmonster | 12/23/2008, 10:33 am EST

Margot -comeback of the century?? Are you freaking serious? Wacko Jacko is no myth just look at the man! His face has more plastic then flesh, he dangles his children from hotel balconies, covers his face in a bizarre zoroesque face mask and on and on…

I mean, how does this man appear even remotely sane and respectable to you people?

Go listen to Thriller and hang your heads in shame knowing your great musical savior is a pedophile of magnificent proportions.

Jeroen | 12/23/2008, 12:03 pm EST

What the hell is wrong with some guys?

You’r innocent till proven otherwise, So He’s innocent according to federal Law.

I would like to see what his tour will look like, magic again or another playbackshow like HIStort tour….

Wow. People can be so stupid. Of course MJ still has fans. He has the greatest selling album of all time. A star like that will not just wash away that quickly. No matter how long you MJ haters hate, Michael will still be around because he has more fans than haters. And as for the child molester thing, he was innocenet almost five years ago, and still is innocent so you really need to get over yourselves.

I don’t care about what you all saying, I love Michael’s songs … I grow up with “Michael Jackson is the kind of Pop” and he’ll always be the king of kings with all due respect to other singers

Am I missing something...... | 12/24/2008, 5:45 pm EST

….did Michael Jackson get convicted of some crime that I haven’t heard of, Westmonster? Far be it from me to be anyone’s apologist, but using this forum to recycle tired jokes and accusations is just pointless. It doesnt matter if he doesnt appear “sane and respectable” to you or anyone else. Do you wish death and harm on him? Then you are despicable. If not, and you dont want to hear about his craziness, then dont read it.

My mother has A1AD, unfortunately if this is true, he will not make it through A1AD. As they said, it’s a genetic, and terminal disease. The lung transplant will simply prolong his life, but the illness will begin hitting his “new” lungs the same as his original lungs. I do pray for him, I wish this terminal disease on no-one. May God bless you Michael.

I’m not really a big Jackson fan or anything, but I must say that this story is quite intriguing . . . I just have to wonder how much time we have to wait to find out the truth.

Maybe God is a just creator.

Just my 2 cents (sense?)

shame on you jo,may this illness come to you an d perish you,you are a big bastard,how many children have you molested without the press knowing? may your jealousy consume you,may you never know peace,to put the record straight for all you haters my is the king of pop,and will always be,a living legend,he still has the talent and will soon move the world again with his wonderful songs and moves.i love you michael

Michael Jackson IS NOT a child molestor.. TRY RERSEARCHING HIS LIFE before you judge him!
THAT FAMILY WERE CRAZIER THAN HE EVER HAS BEEN!!
It is as if these people WANT him to be a child molester? wouldn’t they rather wish he WAS innocent? am i to believe a man touched a young boy with cancer during that whole martin bashir incident when the eyes of the world were wathing Michael? come on seriously it is all bullsh*t

Micheal i love you so much your strong your dedicated your talented, this year hasn’t been good for you i know i know but you have so much to give still you’ll be fine. we love you we all make mistakes okay? its okay..you are gods child his creation his mold he molded you created you. i am praying for you your amazing we love you and your going to get better with time, it may seem impossible right now but you’ll get better. i promise..if you do not survive we’ll always remember you. you have so much to give don’t worry. we still love and adore you….your the king of pop music no matter what happens. you’ll get better. even though this may seem impossible to get better keep believing each day the sun will rise each day the sun will set and new things new ideas will come. we love you micheal jackson we really do.

Jon G. | 12/28/2008, 12:58 pm EST

Nobody knows if Mike really did the things that he’s been accused of; what IS apparent is that his life has become a very sad story. Look at the person on the cover of “Off the Wall,” or watch his performance on the Motown Anniversary special… then look at the recluse he is now.

sharon | 1/9/2009, 12:31 pm EST

I’m not sure what or how Mr Jacksonis doing we the people of this country made his life a hell and poeple accused him of alot so if he is sick the ones that did the accusing can live with the fact that they have this to deal with the rest of their lifes when some one has money they try to make you out to be some one you aren’t or they take what they can from you I have read alot over the years and Mr. Jackson has giving alot of time and money to sick children what have you done for them lately I know that most of you have some time in you life made fun of the out cast in school or the disabled person on the street time to sweep your own back door america or what about the american GI that came back for a war and was spit on and called baby killer thikn about it I know it happen I was their to see my brother have this done to him and you want to run with all of the thing that have happen to Mr Jackson and say guilty well what are you guilty of in your life time the man is a good person and I think I as a 51 years old would still love to meet him and know him as a friend they some of the people I have meant and call their self my friend just to cut me with a knife later I respect you Mr Jackson and wish and pary to god you have many more years tkae care and know there are people that care

My brother has A1AD. He is on the waiting list for a double lung transplant. I also have two other siblings that also have the disease, but have not developed the symptoms, because this is a genetic disease, all of his siblings should be tested as well as their spouses. The disease is passed down from each parent who have the gene. I hope this is not what he has, but all should get tested.

Leann, Dunfermline Scotland | 3/3/2009, 3:59 pm EST

We are all entitled to our opinions but is using foul langauge necessary, you obviously would’nt know talent if it hit you in the face and talent is some-thing you cant deny he most definatley has, If you knew any-thing you would know that he gave alot of his fortune to charity, he has earned the right to spend some of HIS money on himself however he see’s fit, and as for the claims of peodophilia he was found NOT GUILTY, what parent in there right mind would accept a pay off regardless of who they are!

Raven | 7/13/2009, 8:43 pm EST

So its come to this. Everyone knows Michael Jackson was proven innicent on all 14 accounts. So throw away the false remarks of being a pedophile or whatever. Another thing Michael did not have what this fraud is claiming he sufferd with. Michael Jackson was in the wheelchair sometimes b/c he has a medical muscle issue (forgot the proper term) and that caused his muscles to be a little weak, he could see perfectly as well as talk and sing. So i think something has to be done about this heartless “ian halperin” for the lies he mixes together to make them seem “real”. oh please, america isnt naive, they wont beleive any crap he says…hopefully….i know that i WONT! Anywho his new book “unmasked” is clearly a lie, it didnt take me long at all to discover that! It says Michael has “secret gay lovers” and whould dress up as a woman for them…seriously!? Dont you think that either he would have been spotted at some point or one of his “lovers” would have spilled the beans? I hope the Jackson family sues for this one, because this is beyond puplic humiliation for their loved one, who in which they know the truth about. Need i add the fact that michael jackson was busy basically all day everyday, even when he wasnt perfoming, he was giving to charities, not to mention keeping his own charity in order, dealing with lawsuits that people made on him, (that were wrongly made out by the way), and with all this stuff he dealed with he still made time for his children! i would be shocked if he even slept! so come on do you REALLY think michael jackson had the time to spend with “gay lovers” im pretty sure he had a trust issue since so many fake rumers were said upon him. also, ian halperin contridicts himself by saying that michael was “broke, and could barely put food on the table for his children..” COME ON! even I spotted out that lie! let me explain for those who dont understand: If Michael Jackson was so broke to the point that he barely could put food on the table for his children, so you really think hes going to basically be a “prostitute” and have nonone find out it was him? And im sure the lovers would have told to public the affairs for money, cause since michael was so “broke” im sure he couldnt pay them to keep the secret. im so glad im smart, i just hope everyone else is to and can stop this FRAUD named Ian Halerin, right in his tracks!
rip michael joseph jackson (1958-forever!)

WHERE CAN EVERY BODY LEAVE Michael Jackson ALONE I CRIED WHEN I RED THE STORY THAT Ian Halperin WROTE LIVE THE MAN ALONE HE WAS A GOOD MAN AND A GOOD FATHER.WE WE HAVE ALL DONE WRONG THINGS IN LIFE IF THE THINGS WE DO SHOULD COME OUT FOR UR FAMILY OR KIDS TO KNOW HOW WILL U FEEL. JUST FOR GOD’S NAME LEAVE HIM ALONE I PRAY .WHY ALL THIS LEAVE HIM ALONE PLEASE HE MAY NOT BE ALL THAT WE WANT HIM TO BE BUT HE IS A GOOD MAN WHO CARES ABOUT EVERY ONE OH .

OMG | 7/14/2009, 11:47 am EST

Ian Halperin is just a miserable ass and unhappy in his life to have to make up these stupid lies. And all you hater be careful on who you just because you will be judged yourself. We love you Michael.

without judgement | 7/14/2009, 2:28 pm EST

This guy only met MJ one brief time. Could someone tell your life story and all of your secrets without ever even meeting you? Its not even possible. He has nothing more than speculation…as we ALL have. MJ was a great entertainer. That is something we know without speculation. He deserves respect for that. I refused to make judgements on him as a person because I dont know him. Very few people really know him. And NO ONE but God can see into his heart. People that love him are loving someone they have made up in thier heads. They have molded him into someone they want him to be…because they dont even know him. People that hate him have done the same thing! I respect the guy for what he gave on stage. He had talent and he gave it his all. He used it to the best of his ability. Not very many people do that so I respect him for that. Thats all he was to me. Thats all he was to most people. So if you are judging, maybe you need to look at yourself instead of the people you know nothing about.

Susie | 7/19/2009, 1:41 am EST

dear Michael i love u so much …may peace with u forever and ever .the idiots above who said something bad to u are just envy u because they couldnt gain things like u all their life.so they spit on u ,i feel sad for them for they will never get things they want to,and they deserve this.

Wow! Ian Halperin in a self hating white, who is constantly self depricating & praising on MJ & “the black community” & from the looks of what I see, even he can’t get a break with the rest of the self haters, nor with the MJ lovers. I am seriously appalled that folks are so dumb (or just plain stupid?) enough to post in public with horrific spelling & grammar, praising a child pedophile now that he is dead, as if he is now some sort of saint & calling for the tarring & feathering of Ian Halperin, even though he actually stands up for MJ at every turn. Ian Halperin is a major ass, who can’t hate himself or his own race much more than he already does, similar to that of MJ. Sorry to point out cold, hard fact, but MJ wanted to be white, adopted white kids, dated only white women, all because he wanted to be a white woman! MJ has talent, but he also had demons. I wonder what’s hiding behind Ian Halperin’s self hating issues? With MJ dead & his family doing their best to turn his corpse & his children into a profit making circus while ripping through his estate, things ought to get really interesting…

Michael was not a molester and he was innocent of what he was accused. He had deceased for almost a month now. Still people keep hurting him for their greed and ignorant for believing what the media tells. This is really disgusting and disgraceful.

Why would these haters choose to believe in fake than the justice system? See the lies in this old report … Michael was not blind; his final rehearsal showed us that he was terrific on stage.

I don’t believe all the crap that was picked on him. A person with such a warm hearted had already been tortured for so many years … please leave him in peace.
