The woman who bore two of Michael Jackson's children speaks .. What a strange story it is.

Those kids have kind of skinny faces... hope they're getting fed properly.

Yeah, that and that Prince Michael looks kind of like new Michael Jackson which is a bit weird according too everything I learned in biology. (Michael has always been lanky, but are they his genetic offspring? Really?)

(I mean with the new nose and the new eyes and whatever he has done... Kids can't inherit that surely!)

This woman sounds pretty unstable.

I don't think they are his biological children.

I don't think anyone believes that they are even if he claims that they are.

She befriended Jackson and - like a schoolgirl with a crush - offered to bear him children...

?!!?!?!!?!??!

silly whiskeysoda! If it weren't for schoolgirls, how would celebrities repopulate?

I was wondering why, if they're not his kids, go through the artificial insemination rigmarole? Why not just buy a couple from the developing world like the other celebs?

But he might have chosen a father with an appearance that he wanted them to inherit.

Aaaah. Youknow that's weird enough to be the case. A lanky cross between Clark Gable and Bambi is the father.

There's not a chance that any of 'his' children are his biological offspring. All three of his children are caucasian. And no matter how white he is now, caucasian he ain't.

That story makes me feel very ... disturbed and queasy.

I like the part where they describe her as "bloated beyond all recognition" like she's a monster because she weighs 200lbs. She's fat, sure, but look at the picture, she looks totally normal, like a size 16 or something. British journalists seem to think that any woman over "10 stone" is like some sort of terrible mythic beast that will eat your babies.

I doubt he'd be approved for adoption by any agency.

And I think he would have chosen the father based on his appearance. The older two look a LOT alike - they must be full siblings, whoever the father really is.

Agreed. They are most certainly not his biological kids, but Prince and Paris must have the same dad. I was just kind of curious to see what they looked like; now I know. I wonder what their home life is like. I wonder if they're spoiled, or suprisingly normal. At least they look normal/happy!

Yes, and my favourite is this line of journalism...how it lets the reader form his or her own opinion:
When asked about their appearance this week, she reacts with the grunt of a satisfied breeder, rather than a sigh of loss.
