Mom and the King of Pop - but not the Pop of the Kids
Those of us who’ve covered the Michael Jackson beat have long known that Michael Jackson’s children are NOT biologically related to him. I’ve been saying that on national television since the death of the King of Pop. I think the kids now deserve to know their true lineage. A few of us reporters actually knew the identity of the sperm donor who entered into a three way agreement with Jackson and Debbie Rowe to create the two oldest Jackson children. On Entertainment Tonight and the Insider I challenged the sperm donor to come forward and help out the children since biological Mom Debby Rowe seems disinterested in them. Today the latest bombshell in this fast moving story….Us Weekly Magazine and a team of reporters and editors had the guts to go for it.
Dr. "Baby Daddy" Klein
The kids real daddy is Michael Jackson’s long time Dermatologist, Dr. Arnie Klein. Oh, and BTW, the long time nurse at Klein’s office was Debbie Rowe. That’s how all three of them came together in the first place. Today, US Weekly Magazine and reporter Ian Drew had the guts to go for it and reveal that the REAL baby Daddy of Prince Michael and Paris Katherine is none other than Jacko’s long time dermatologist – the man who invented his favorite skin bleaching cream – Dr. Arnie Klein….
Though Michael Jackson was wed to Prince and Paris’ mother, Debbie Rowe, their biological father is Arnold Klein, Jackson’s L.A.-based dermatologist and Rowe’s former boss, multiple sources confirm to the new issue of Us Weekly.:He is the dad,” says a Jackson insider. “He and Debbie signed an agreement saying they would never reveal the truth.” via News – EXCLUSIVE: Dermatologist Is Father of Michael Jackson’s Kids | Usmagazine.com.
Klein has always had a lucrative Beverly Hills practice – he doesn’t necessarily need the money that would come with custody of the children – and as far as I know he has no connection to the third child known as “Blanket” – but hey, who knows? But Klein probably isn’t quick to jump into the custody fray for several other reasons. First his gay lifestyle would have to change dramatically if three kids (or even two) suddenly came on the scene. And maybe more immediate in his mind: The cops like him for one of the doctors (if not THE primary doctor) who wrote all those prescriptions for Michael Jackson’s narcotics over the years. Klein lawyered up shortly after Jackson’s death. He’s closed his practice for now and is set to talk to the cops (if he hasn’t already – timing in L.A. L.A. Land is always mercurial) My sources tell me Klein had devised a whole prescription scheme for his most famous client. Using the random name of Jacko friends, bodyguards or just made up names Klein would call in prescriptions to Mickey Fine’s Pharmacy right there on the premises. All of the prescriptions were then charged to Michael Jackson’s account. Fine sued Jackson back in 2007 for a staggering $100, 000.00 dollar unpaid balance for prescription drugs. Its reported that Jackson paid for 48 thousand dollars in drugs in just one month. Yep, he may be unmasked as the Baby Daddy now – but Dr. Klein has a whole lot more to worry about than that. Oh, – and BTW – I don’t think that report on TMZ about Debbie Rowe NOT being the mother is correct. See more of my Jackson coverage at www.TrueSlant.com/dianedimond

"DEAR DIANE, I HAVE ALWAYS HAD A LOT OF RESPECT FOR YOU BECAUSE OF YOUR HONEST REPORTING ON JACKSON.PLEASE DON'T LET THE MEDIA CONTINUE TO PAINT HIM AS VICTIM WHEN WE KNOW HOW MANIPULATIVE HE WAS.WE KNOW HE MOLESTED ALL THOSE VICTIMS."
So what if its not his kids…. he was a dotting father… he provided them with anything they wanted… you ppl are just jealous… he has his fans more than haters!
I don't think that what MJ did was OK, but with that type of reputation of being a child molester, parents continued to send there children to Neverland. Shouldn't the parents be insulted also for being so stupid. I know that I would have stopped sending my children there.

"Keep digging Diane. It looks like the garbage pile for this one may never end. Nothing else about Michael's version of things was real, why should fatherhood be any different? If it is acknowledged by the pricipals involved that you are right, do the kids lose rights to inhertiance? Actually they would be better off being related to Dr. Klein rather than to Michael Jackson.
Do you know anything about Paul McCartney making a move to buy back the Beatles song catalogue? A reporter asked him about about a month ago and all he said was "Shhh!". Keep up the good work. Many folks are counting on you, as one of the few remaining journalist left to uncover the truth. Thanks for not accepting the propaganda and looking the other way."
Its very funny how all the comment have to be cleared how dont you allow the ones that you get from fans that hate you up on your website. You just post comments about how people think you report the truth. oh well if that make you feel better okay. whatever but michael jackson fans are better
Monica – you're obviously not reading all the comments. ~DD
Dear Monica:
Get someone to read this note to you because English obviously is not your primary language. That, or you're a complete ignoramus; you had six misspellings and five punctuation errors in a mere four sentences. MJ was a great entertainer, a prescription, drug addict and a desperately sick man. Anyone who tries to elevate him beyond that obviously hasn't read Diane Dimond's book or her investigative columns. I doubt, Monica, you read anything but PEOPLE magazine; your lips would get too tired if you tried to read anything without pictures
Diane, please give us a break! We don't wanna know your truth. How long have you been trying to tell us about Michael this things? In all this time you couldn't find anything for sure? So, why are you still here? Did he do anything to you? Why are you so angry with him? Get back to your life and calm down. If you have any proof, come and show the world what you've got. But if you don't, please get some.
Over the years while covering Jackson……you constantly said "your sources" told you
this and that. Frankly, your coverage was suspect from the beginning. Jackson was
found not guilty in a court of law. Your still trying to convince people …….and it does
not make you look any better. Why can't you let Jackson rest in peace for god's sake,
leave him be.
Readers: I will continue to print comments that are not flattering to me as long as they don't contain profanity and outright lies. I'm not able to post all of them but as regular readers know I am not afraid to post those who do not agree with me.
Again thanks!!
How can it be that people in this country are worshipping a child molester while soldiers are dying for us!
Please people, remember the real heros' of this world!
Sweetheart,
If you kept up with CNN in the last 2 days you will see that the child that accussed him back about 5 years ago came forth this week and said his family told h im to lie and that Michael never touched him! Thank you very much!
This is not true. I don't know what CNN reported but I know there is an internet campaign out there (which I traced back to the Michael Jackson web site) spreading the erroneous report that the second accuser has recanted his allegation of molestation. Nothing could be further from the truth. He has done no such thing – and it underscores how one should NOT believe everything they read on the internet. ~ DD
Those soldiers are in countries they have no business to be in. You invade other countries, and then you talk about soldiers dying? What about all the innocent people who are dying due to your illegal invasion of those countries?
And Jackson was never convicted for being a molester, so just stop talking crap.
Diane, I am from the UK, and have heard your name associated with the Michael Jackson case. I just get the feeling that you didn't helphis cause did you?
Perhaps he was taking prescription drugs because of your slanted reporting.
Maybe you and Martin Bashir another creepy slanted manipulator???
In fact there are many more names that I could call you, things that MJ had to put up with.
Oh forget it, goodbye !
Dear fellow UK person (I am from there but live here) – how have you got the nerve to blame Diane for anything?? She is a reporter for Gods sake and a damn good one at that. Can anyone please tell me why Diane is supposedly to blame for all this???? I have never heard such crap in all my life! I am sick of hearing negative comments…please get your facts right. Unfortunately, Michael Jackson fans (and I am one I might add – his music is unforgettable) -on the whole – seem to have tunnel vision for some reason. I know it is hard to know what to believe…but lets say this….dear fans of Michael – why oh why was Diprovan in his house???? This is a drug only to be administered in hospitals. I believe that Mr. Jackson unfortunately got what he wanted when he wanted it because…dear fans…..MONEY TALKS!!! I would think he is partly to blame for his own death but whoever administered these drugs needs to be punished. I hope one or more of these doctors are "going down"!!!! Vicky, I suggest you read up on Diane's work and perhaps read her "Be Careful Who You Love" book!! Ok, I've said my piece.
Jackson was NOT found not guilty in the molestation cases, one of the cases he settled out of court for an untold amount. He admitted to sleeping with little boys, sorry, but there's no way that was innocent. This was a case of a wealthy and powerful man, getting away with criminal acts, and every one knows this. Unfortunately too many people are willing to look the other way, and not think about those poor kids. I'm sick of the entire Jackson non-stop news, but I appreciate Diane's reporting on the truth of the matter, because that is important.
So what if he and Debbie Rowe aren't the biological parents? Lots of people engage surrogates these days for whatever reason. Why aren't these nice little middle class and/or yuppie-type couples denigrated for doing that?
Why are you picking on this point with MJ? You mean there's been no surrogacy in white picket fence land? Come on. Get a life.
Yes, he did pay some 20 million to buy off one molestation charge and narrowly won the other molestation case against him a few years later. Nice guy alright. A very sick puppy. Now the revelation that his arms were a sea of needle sticks…his body white from head to toe and he died bald and emaciated. Sounds like a totally normal, little boy lover to me. He was on a self-made path of self-destruction for years. A miracle that he lived as long as he did. What's next? His birthday a national holiday? Please. Enough!
Stop hating on the negative. What are you the media? What about all of the children he saved with his donations of millions?
And when will you jokers ever get over the cases? Old news…plus he was acquitted. Stop dragging his good name in the mud. You're just mad that people are praising him more than being hurtful like you guys. Regardless he will always come out on top.
And I would pay anything to have those two liars, especially the Chandler kid and his dad take a polygraph test. They were money hungry and they won. Just remember to all of the negative ones on here, what goes around…comes around. You will get yours for the negative words that you are spewing.
About "buying" his kids, do you have other suggestion for him to have his own kids? I don't see how, for a person in his position. It is so sad.
If you can't have kids, and has to adopt. Would you like reporters to dig and tell your kids who the real parents are for your adopted kids? It is not your reporters job to do that.
Don't do things to others, if you don't want others to do to you.
Leave the kids alone to have a normal life.
The damage done by the reporters to those kids (and to MJ) by following them all the time and dump trush on them is worst than jchild molesdation that you accuse MJ of.
Yes, I have suggestions. Michael Jackson could have gone through the normal adoption or surrogate procedures countless others go through if he wanted children. ~ DD
Can Michael really have a normal adoption or surrogate procedures? His life was not normal at all thanks to the reporters following all the time. He probably would be dead before he could get one adopted, and your headline or the legal procedure would say/question "child molestor" trying to adopt a kid. His 3rd one was a surragete.
The bottome line is that he was not allowed to have any private life at all, even in his later years when he was not really working that much. Reporters forget that he is a real human being and has feeling too.
His later years reminded me of a clown who still need to keep smiling in front of others, even though he was so hurt inside.
RUDE RUDE RUDE- you are not a journalist. NOT A JOURNALIST. Journalists don't say things like this- that is so unprofessional of you!
After the civil suit in 1993 I doubt Jackson had any chance of getting children via a legal adoption method. Wacko signed a statement admitting to inappropriate sexual contact with at least one young boy. Part of the reason for the huge settlement was to hush things up before the civil trial started. Anything presented as evidence in the civil trial stood a fair chance of being included in the criminal trial that Mr. Sneddon was preparing.
With the out of court settlement and a confidentiality agreement tied to the settlement money, Sneddon lost his best witness. Of course there were others such as Safechuck and Francia who were paid off and that wasn't hard to find out either.
Do you think any adoption agency would risk all the negative publicity in giving Jackson potential victims? That's possibly why Wacko went the route that he did and paid some ridiculous money to Rowe and others to hang on to these kids.
Is there any other person who would go to such lengths to claim such children were actually carrying his DNA given the children were as caucasian-looking as they are? I could see one of them possibly looking lily-white, although it's quite a stretch, if they were of Wacko's seed but all three? Not a chance.
Given the amount of narcotics and booze Wacko used in the last decade, I truly hope those children are able to recover from that creature.
Diane,
Are you insinuating by the the statement, " he is the inventor of his favorite bleaching cream" that Jackson did not have vitiligo? Because I am more than happy to send you early career footage showing his porcelin white scars. You can actually find LEGITIMATE pictures and video on you tube as well.
No, of course not. Jordan Chandler's description of Michael Jackson's body – and especially his private parts – made it clear Michael Jackson DID have vitiligo. The bleaching cream was used to smooth out the color discrepancies.
AND WHO CARES WHO THE BIOLOGICAL FATHER OR MOTHER ARE- Geezzz….do you guys all do this to your friends that have adopted or used surrogates? How terrible people can be- get a life and stop being so cruel!!!!!!
I’m speechless! Who cares about who is the real father. He WAS the father! How many people adapt children and nobody say anything bad about it. It makes me sick to see that people more in to something negative. No one talks about how generous he was. Info is not reliable from you Diane. I remember all these tricks from you starting from Hard Copy. I really don’t understand the hate that you live with toward this man. He’s gone already! Now it’s time to ask God for forgiveness! People like him would never live long among us because with our abnormalities that we turned into norms, we consider them to be strange and bizarre. It’s very sad!
I personally do not feel that there was enough proof to substantiate the accusations of molestation. I do however respect those that have a different view. I can say one thing. Yesterday I watched the special where MJ says: "It was my own sperm". I knew that was a lie, and now the chickens are coming home. I am disappointed that MJ lied to the 'world'…but after all, Peter Pan merely 'had to believe and wish' and it was so. Real life isn't like that. And it's very sad that illegitimate children are sought after and manufactured for monetary gain by those 'who got involved' in the sorted affairs. The whole family/situation sickens me.
