Paris Jackson’s suicide attempt came after she was told she does not have the same biological father as her brother Prince, according to a new report. The alleged revelation by the Sun (UK) says that she knew Michael Jackson “could not be” her natural dad, yet believed she and Prince had the same one. Paris Jackson believed Debbie Rowe was their mother and an unnamed man their dad, but if this report is to be believed, she’s learned this is untrue. She was just recently given the news, the Sun reports, to prepare her for harsh grilling during the $40 billion Michael Jackson wrongful death trial . A major identity crisis followed, along with a string of devastating fights between Paris and Prince, 16, and eventually led to Paris’ attempt on her life. Whatever the reason, Michael’s only daughter has plunged into depression and is still in an L.A. hospital. She OD’d on Motrin and cut herself June 5. A family friend said of the paternity bombshell: “Paris has always wanted to believe Michael was her dad, but was aware that wasn’t really the case. But she was convinced her and Prince were full siblings.” “She always idolized him. Hearing she wasn’t started a downward spiral .” She’s said to be feeling better but will stay in hospital for up to 30 days. She will then spend more time with mum Debbie, 54, at her ranch in California. Paris Jackson is said to hate the “circus” that is the Jackson household, but she remains close to her guardian and grandmother, Katherine Jackson. There have long been reports that Michael Jackson was not the biological father of any of his three children, and a series of men have claimed that role. The most frequently mentioned name is Dr. Arnold Klein, MJ’s doctor and friend, who’s even admitted giving the late King of Pop a sperm sample. Another Jackson friend, Mark Lester , says the same thing, while numerous others – including Macaulay Culkin – have been rumored by the tabloids.
Aleged Michael Jordan baby mama Pamela Smith is vowing to re-file her paternity suit against His Airness, despite calling off the dogs last month. Pamela claimed Michael fathered 16-year-old son Grant Reynolds, a.k.a. Taj Jordan , who urged her to make the legal claim against the NBA legend. Smith dropped the lawsuit without explanation and Jordan immediately lashed out, asking the judge to nail her with his attorneys’ fees as well as sanctions. Now Pamela Smith says she withdrew the suit because of a technical legal problem with the documents and not because she’s admitting defeat. In fact, she plans on re-filing the case ASAP . As for the “technical legal problem,” it’s pretty good … she forgot to remove her ex-husband from the birth certificate which lists him as Grant’s father. Smith and Jordan were apparently involved in the 1990s while he was still married to his first wife Juanita, something MJ has not denied at any point. Jordan refutes the paternity claim, however. Regardless of how this turns out, he and Yvette Prieto are scheduled to tie the knot in three weeks’ time.
This broad is not going anywhere! Michael Jordan’s Ex Mistress Re-Files Paternity Suit Via TMZ reports: Michael Jordan ‘s alleged baby mama vows to continue her fight to prove the greatest NBA player of all time is in deed the father of her child … despite his legal attack on her. As we previously reported Pamela Smith abruptly dropped her paternity lawsuit without explanation and Jordan immediately lashed out … asking the judge to nail her with his attorneys’ fees as well as sanctions. Now Pamela’s getting specific … she did not drop the lawsuit because she’s waving the white flag — there was a technical legal problem with the docs and she plans on re-filing the paternity case STAT. Pamela’s technical legal problem is actually amusing … before filing her case against Jordan, she forgot one little thing — removing her ex-husband from the birth certificate which lists him as the daddy. The boy at the center of all this is 16-year-old Grant “Taj” Reynolds … an aspiring rapper. SMH!!!! At least he’ll have something to write about.
Where is Maury ?? Michael Jordan’s Mistress Demands Paternity Test Via TMZ reports: Michael Jordan’s alleged baby mama believes the proof is in the puddin’ … so she wants the former NBA star take a DNA test STAT … to prove he’s the father of her kid. Pamela Smith filed new legal docs this week in her ongoing paternity suit with Jordan asking a judge to force the b-baller to pony up some fluids or hairs … or skin — this after Jordan recently denied fathering her son, Grant Taj Reynolds … born back in 1996. In the docs, Pamela says she KNOWS Jordan’s the dad because they had sex approx. 9 months before Grant’s birth — something she claims Jordan’s NEVER denied — and genetic testing will prove it resulted in the pregnancy. As TMZ previously reported … Jordan filed docs of his own earlier this month, DENYING he’s the baby daddy — and claimed paternity for the teenager was established YEARS ago in a previous case. A judge has yet to rule. Isn’t it interesting that wealthy men only have sex with ladies who NEVER practice birth control?
Keeping Up With the Kardashians is back! That’s right, the most boring, scripted show on TV is SO back! On the Season 7 premiere, Kim and her giant boobs gush about the importance of family, Kourtney reveals the gender of her second baby, Khloe and Kris clash over whether she should take a DNA test, and Bruce takes $h!t from everyone. Basically all stuff we already knew or didn’t care about. Anyway, here’s our recap! Kim Kardashian : “After going through a divorce this past year, it just taught me that family is the most important thing.” Well, family and Kanye. Plus 10 . Khloe’s in town, but no one bothers to tell Bruce dinner is ready, and he doesn’t bother to come downstairs. Blame is shared equally there. Minus 15 . “What does a guy got to do to get a little respect around here?” he says. Not be surrounded by a bunch of money-grubbing reality stars? Minus 10 . OMG … is Khloe a biological Kardashian ? The DNA test drama resumes as
Go ahead and tell me you didn’t see this coming: The Russian government is underwriting a biopic of the late-19th/early 20th-century ballerina and tsarist “femme fatale” Mathilde Kschessinska, and its cultural ministers have enlisted Paul Schrader to write the screenplay for “an internationally acclaimed director to be announced soon.” OK, fine — I didn’t see it coming, either. Read on for full details, by which I mean an explanation from all involved. I mean, between Raging Bull and Mishima , the guy knows from international historical figures of varying renown. But this… Anyway, if it sounds unprecedented, that’s because it is. Anyone have any casting suggestions? ============ PAUL SCHRADER PENS BIOPIC OF NOTORIOUS RUSSIAN BALLERINA Acclaimed screenwriter-director will write the story of Kschessinska, legendary prima ballerina and mistress to the last Russian Tsar, for film financed by Kremlin-backed Culture & Arts Fund May 17, 2012, Los Angeles — Paul Schrader has signed on today to write the story of the ultimate femme fatale, “prima ballerina assoluta” Mathilde Kschessinska, for Russian entertainment powerhouse Vladimir Vinokur and his partner the Russian ballet impresario Vladislav Moskalev, in collaboration with American producers David Weisman and Anatoly Davydov. The film is financed by the V. Vinokur Fund for the Support of Russian Culture & Arts under the auspices of the Kremlin. Never before has a renowned American screenwriter written a Russian film about an iconic figure from Russian history. The film will be shot in English with mixed Russian and American Star cast, and will be helmed by an internationally acclaimed director to be announced soon. “Kschessinska’s life is a powerful metaphor for Russian culture and evokes the best of Russian arts,” said Schrader. “She was a first native prima ballerina in the country that saw the highest achievement in that art form. She was not only a witness to the critical period of Russian history, she was a player in that history, only to be thrown aside.” As the Russian Empire was falling apart, a tiny ballerina caused scandal, heartbreak, and intrigue among the royal family. Kschessinska played mistress to at least four aristocratic men who controlled the crumbling Romanov dynasty, including Russia’s last Tsar, Nicholas II. Rising from poverty, through her extraordinary gift for ballet, Kschessinska lived a life of mind-boggling luxury during a time of monumental despair and chaos. Despite her relentless ambition and charismatic power, she never got what she really wanted. Although her son certainly had Romanov blood, his paternity remained in dispute—and her dream to become mother of the Tsar would never be realized—due to revolution, murder, and unrequited love. “Kschessinska’s story gives me an exciting opportunity to create historical fiction not only through direct narrative—but also through the ballets she danced and defined,” Schrader continued. “Oftentimes, the most interesting perspectives on history come from those seemingly off to the side but actually in the center—its artists.” “Kschessinska was worshipped and reviled,” said Weisman. “Nicknames such as ‘Black-eyed She-Devil of the Imperial Ballet’ and ‘Mathilde the Magnificent’ echo the seething jealousy and boundless admiration Kschessinska provoked during her time. Having narrowly escaped the Bolshevik bloodbath, for fifty years she taught ballet in Paris where she died only a few months before her hundredth birthday, in 1971.” “Kschessinska’s life begins in the world of Imperial St Petersburg—Russia’s window on the West—where Russian culture attained arguably the highest achievements in both lyric epic and in the novel,” Schrader added. “I’ll draw on all that to explore the inner-life of Kschessinska at the same time I explore the splendor of Russian culture. Russia, which like the Romanov imperial eagle looks both east and west, is uniquely positioned to take a dominant role in the renaissance of global cinema.” “This project is not just about making a movie for the international market; It is a window into true understanding of the Russian soul,” said Moskalev. ###
‘I wrote about that situation,’ singer admits during an album listening session Tuesday. By James Dinh Justin Bieber Photo: Lester Cohen/ WireImage Justin Bieber isn’t leaving behind last year’s paternity scandal until he shares his two cents on the allegation — musically, at least. Just a day after his Twitter jab at 20-year-old Mariah Yeater , the pop superstar held a listening session for his new album, Believe, and revealed that the paternity case is just one of many subject matters he covered on the project. According to the BBC , Bieber said his inspirations included “that girl — Mariah Yeater — who said she was going to have my baby,” adding: “I wrote about that situation.” When asked to choose his favorite song on the June 19 release , Bieber struggled to answer. “Every song has a piece of me; it’s hard to pick,” he said. “I wrote almost all of them or co-wrote them.” Yeater definitely played a big part in Bieber’s 2011. The California woman kept the singer at the top of the headlines when she alleged he was the father of her then-3-month-old child. Bieber’s baby-mama-drama track is just one of 40 songs he’s recorded for the LP, which also reportedly features collaborations with Taylor Swift, Ludacris and Kanye West. In another interview during his promotional blitz, the singer dished details about his duet with Drake, even revealing the title of the star-studded track. “The song’s called ‘Right Here’ and it’s a smash!” he told Capital FM . “People are gonna love it. It just rides so smoothly.” Two acts Beliebers won’t see on the album are One Direction and the Wanted, as the star denied rumors of hitting the studio with the teen heartthrobs.
