WTF! Mark Lester

I've never felt so bad for Michael in my life, and I've always tried not to pity him. But it really does seem like every so-called "friend" in his life was actually just scum waiting to get in the spotlight at his expense.

Mark Lester is an ass, not a friend, not to mention a huge f*king hypocrite.

Another.Part.Of.Me wrote:His reasoning is that Paris looks like his daughter. The hell she does, SKY News showed a pic side by side and they look nothing alike.
WTH is his problem, him and klein are leeches, it's so disgusting.
And News Of The World? Jeez, that's got about as much worth as toilet paper

Another.Part.Of.Me wrote:OK, I wouldn't have done this ordinarily because it's late but I just had to turn on my computer and post.
I just watched the SKY News 1am headlines and the top story is Mark Lester claiming to be Paris' dad. He went to the lowest form of media possible - News Of The World - and recorded a video saying the he donated sperm to Michael Jackson and he thinks Paris is his child because she looks like his daughter Harriet.
He claims that he is worried about the children's welfare and that the Jackson family has cut all communication withi him.

This is the same Mark Lester who six weeks ago praised Michael's parenting skills and said that he had talked to the kids and Paris etc still wanted to spend Christmas at his home in the UK because she had already bought the presents.

Hmm... on Monday Dr Klein gatecrashes the custody hearing claiming the welfare of the children, and now Mark Lester has brought out this BS video claiming the same thing. With 'friends' like those, who needs enemies?
What is going on here? It is getting weirder by the day.

IMO if MJ is alive, this is all part of the plan and neither Klein nor Lester are "betraying him" They are trying to get paternity tests, which would prove MJ is the bio dad, and lay to rest one of the many rumors about MJ.

Then why not go to a credible news organisation, News of the World is like the lowest form of tabloid tat, if it were credible then credible news organisations would have picked it up.
Mark lester is like a spoiled child who thought he could capitalise on something which didn't work out. Now he's whining about the Jacksons cutting contact with him. It's an attention seeking ploy.
How many of these 'paternity tests' will actually happen, Rowe, Klein, Lester, Bhatti etc. I don't think any of them will actually take place at all so it serves no purpose except for leeches to make money.

Because if it's part of the hoax they wouldn't go to a credible news source. That's the point about not believing crap you hear in the tabloids. Elephant man bones and hyperbaric chamber weren't reported to normal news media either. It should be, IMO a clue that Mark Lester goes to News of the World instead of CNN.

I still think if MJ is alive this is part of the show. And paternity tests will eventually be done on the children when we reach critical mass. Whatever that is. Maybe someone else will come out claiming paternity too. who knows? But I really believe this is a ploy to prove MJ is the bio dad. And to discredit tabloids further.

Maybe, that's something we're going to have to wait and see. I don't see Katherine or any of the Jacksons agreeing to a paternity test on those kids at all, or debbie who still apparently has her parental rights.

If a judge orders a paternity test, they have to comply.

mjfan wrote:I do wish they'd do a paternity test. I don't think it matters personally if MJ is the bio dad or not. But I truly believe he is... and it would shut up speculation and rumors. You just can't argue with a paternity test.

A greater issue is... with so many people SO sure those kids are "too white" to be MJ's kids.. if they were proven absolutely WRONG on that issue, then I think many people would start to question what they assumed about the allegations against him as well.

But I agree with the people who said if this isn't a hoax and if this isn't a part of it... MJ had some of the slimiest people around him. MJ specifically stated in his will who he wanted his kids to go to. He didn't say he wanted Mark Lester to raise them. And what? Lester wants all three or just Paris? What is the point of all this?

I do hope MJ is alive and well and this is a hoax, mainly because if it isn't, it's horrible how much pain he had to be going through and how lonely he had to be if these are the types of people who surrounded him. He needed people who loved him, not people who wanted things from him.

Thankfully he got that at least from his children.

I've been saying the exact same thing. Mark is a true friend to MJ and there is no way he would stab MJ in the back, I really feel there's something behind this and it'll finally come out that MJ is the father.

I hope we're right on this! I'm like sitting around waiting to see who else is going to claim paternity. If MacCaulay Culkin steps up and says he's the daddy we KNOW something is up, lol.

Despite being quoted in the ever-reliable News of the World seemingly professing to be the biological father of Michael Jackson's daughter, Paris, former child star Mark Lester isn't trying to cash in his ticket for the paternity lotto just yet.

"I'm sure, as far as I know, [the children] were all his," Lester, who starred as the titular Oliver! in the Oscar-winning musical, told E! News.

"I expected lots of different things to come out, but this is extraordinary."

Even more extraordinary? What Lester actually did, uh, deposit as fact to the British tabloid.







The 51-year-old U.K.-based Lester is godfather to Paris, Prince Michael and Blanket and has been close friends with Jackson for nearly 30 years, even spending Christmas at Neverland Ranch back in 2003.

And while he denied fathering the Jackson kids, he did admit that he once complied with Jackson's request to donate sperm to the pop star.

"It's been a secret for so long," said Lester, who is currently biding his time as an osteopath and acupuncture specialist. "In 1996 Michael asked me if I would give him my sperm and I said yes.

"It was a gift to him, no money was paid, it was something I was honored to do. He wanted children so badly."

But while the News of the World apparently made the jump from sperm donation on its own, Lester told the tab it's possible his "gift" to Jackson could have been put to use and was willing to take a paternity test to prove—or, as it were, disprove—the theory.

As for the Jackson three, while Lester told the British tabloid on camera that he can see "strong similarities" between his own 15-year-old daughter and Paris, he told E! News not long ago that the only person the trio shared an uncanny resemblance with was their father.

"Paris is very pale and Prince has Michael's eyes," he said. "And certainly Blanket is facially very similar to Michael. I'm really amazed to hear that."
