Rep: Michael Jackson "Reports Are Completely False"

Michael Jackson is in fine health according to his representative.
Rumors hit the internet about Michael Jackson's health being in jeopardy. Now a rep for the pop superstar has come forward to debunk the rumors as pure nonsense.

"Wild allegations concerning Mr. Jackson's health are a total fabrication," says Dr. Tohme Tohme, a man who calls himself Jackson's "official and sole" spokesperson.

Originally based on a quote by Ian Halpern in Britian's The Sun, rumor had it that that Jackson was blind in one eye and in need of a lung transplant, "but may be too weak to go through with it."

Despite the fact that The Sun is standing by its story, Tohme says that the reports are completely false.

"Concerning this author's allegations, we would hope in the future that legitimate media will not continue to be exploited by such an obvious attempt to promote this unauthorized 'biography,'" Tohme said.

"[Jackson] is finalizing negotiations with a major entertainment company and television network for both a world tour and a series of specials and appearances," his statement continued

BREAKING NEWS: MJ Needs Emergency Transplant Operation

Michael Jackson is suffering from a rare lung condition and needs to undergo an emergency transplant operation, according to a reports.

And his normally outspoken publicist hasn't denied the allegations.

The King of Pop may even be fighting for his life, New York Times bestselling biographer Ian Halperin tells In Touch magazine and Britain's Sunday Express newspaper.

Halperin, says Jackson has been diagnosed with Alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency, an occasionally fatal genetic condition.

"He's had it for years but it's gotten worse," Halperin told In Touch. "He needs a lung transplant but may be too weak to go through with it.

He also has emphysema and chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, which his doctors have had a lot of trouble stopping. It's the bleeding that is the most problematic part. It could kill him."

According to Halperin, Jackson "can barely speak" and is having trouble seeing: "The vision in his left eye is 95 percent gone."

Jackson, who has lived largely out the public eye in recent years, shocked fans in July when he was photographed in wheelchair.

The 50-year-old also received help walking when stepped out in Los Angeles earlier this month wearing a Zorro-style face mask.

Jackson's rep was unavailable for comment Sunday, but the singer's brother Jermaine didn't deny the reports, telling Fox News, "He's not doing so well right now. This isn't a good time," reports NYdailynews.
