MICHAEL JACKSON'S DERMATOLOGIST SPEAKS

Dr. Arnold Klein, the former doctor of Michael Jackson, has revealed he carried out several cosmetic procedures on the star and has confessed to donating semen to a sperm bank.

Michael Jackson's former dermatologist has admitted "rebuilding" the singer's nose.

Dr. Arnold Klein - who was the late 'Thriller' star's doctor for 20 years - admitted to performing several cosmetic procedures on the singer, claiming he was helping improve Michael's breathing.

He said: "I rebuilt it, yes. Using fillers. I used Rezulin. I used hydronic acids, and they worked very well. It's an arduous procedure, because you don't want to put too much in. And you have to do it exactly, so you can flow the material so it's perfectly smooth.

"So we rebuilt them. And I'm telling you that he was beginning to look like the nose was normal again. And that's all I wanted - for him to regain the breathing in the passages of his nose, because there was a total collapse of the cartilage."

He also confessed to giving him Demerol, the powerful painkiller Michael was reportedly addicted to before his death from a suspected cardiac arrest last month.

However, the doctor claimed he only gave him the drug "on occasion" to sedate him and that it was the "strongest medicine" he'd ever administered to Michael.

The doctor - who is rumoured to the biological dad of the singer's eldest children, Prince Michael, 12, and 11-year-old Paris - also revealed he has given semen to a sperm bank, but insists it was never donated to the singer.

Klein - whose former nurse Debbie Rowe is the mother of Prince and Paris and was once married to the 'Bad' star - told US TV show 'Larry King Live': "I once donated sperm but it was absolutely not to him."

When Klein - who has previously denied being the children's biological father - was asked again who the biological dad was, he replied: "Here's the most important thing. Michael loved those children. Those children loved him as a father. As far as I am concerned, that's the most important grouping there is."

When pressed further, he replied: "I'm not going to answer it the way you want me to answer it because… I will say no if that's what you want to hear.

"What I will tell you is I think what's most important about this whole thing, about who the father is... is who the children want their father to be.

"I think, to the best of my knowledge, I'm not the father."

Although Michael - who went on to have another son, Prince Michael II, also known as 'Blanket', via a surrogate mother - always insisted he was Prince and Paris' biological father, Debbie previously alleged they were conceived using artificial insemination with sperm which was not Michael's.
