King of Pop

We all know that Kanye West is known for having a bit of an ego, but never in a million years did we think he would try and replace former King of Pop Michael Jackson so soon after his death.

Well neither did he, according to recent reports Kanye West fell victim to a internet hoax as rumours began to spread that the singer was ready to replace the former King of Pop.

The confusion arose after Kanye made the comments on a spoof interview on Scrapetv.com.

He said: “You know everyone loves and respects Michael but times change – it’s so sad to see Michael gone but it makes a path for a new King of Pop and I’m willing to take that on.”

Fans of the former legend were both shocked and outraged by the singer’s comments.  It was later reported that the quotes were made up and false.

This bizzare story is just one of the many reports that can be added to the ever growing Jackson files; over recent weeks the public has been witness to child custody battles, paternity tests, questions over his will and legal battles over the singers assets- the King of Pop surely knows how to keep making headlines.

And it doesn’t stop there, It seems the singer has also been conducting interviews from the  hereafter as well; website www.michaeljacksonfromthegrave.com has claimed to have made contact with the singer and have even produced an entire transcript of the interview. The interview discusses the cause of the singer’s untimely death and includes personal messages to family, friends and fans.

As for his children grandmother Katherine Jackson has won the legal rights to take care of the children-biological mother Debbie Rowe has been given visitation rights but will not receive any financial support.

After discovering dangerous amounts of Propofol, search warrants were issued to Dr. Conrad Murray’s Las Vegas offices and home as officers  began looking into any record of communication between Jackson’s personal physician and a number of other doctors including rheumatologist Allan Metzger and anesthesiologist Randy Rosen.

It is still unclear when or if a final autopsy report will be released.
