Michael Jackson Statement on Drug Overdose Rumors

10 December 2005

Earlier this week the National Enquirer reported that Michael Jackson had suffered several drug overdoses and that his condition was now 'critical'. That story is entirely false.

It is not unusual for tabloid papers like the National Enquirer to publish such fiction - but in recent weeks many stories have come out of Santa Barbara, seemingly linked to the DA's office there, alleging one thing or another about the King of Pop.

Today, Michael's publicist, Raymone Bain, has issued a statement on his behalf.

 It reads;

    Michael Jackson has been working with several artists recording his Katrina Relief song, and with me all week, including today. He is doing fine. I have never seen him happier or healthier.

    Whomever these individuals are who are intent on disseminating false information throughout the media regarding Mr. Jackson, should begin hiring good attorneys. Likewise, the few irresponsible journalists who continuously rely on these ‘sources,’ and report this false information.

    Mr. Jackson’s tolerance level has come to an end. The Green light that people have thought they have had to willfully impugn Michael Jackson’s character and integrity has now become Red.

It is interesting to note that these odd rumours and stories - apparently connected to the same office which tried unsuccessfully to prosecute Michael earlier this year - have coincided with news of a major new Michael Jackson release.
