Jacko's "fourth child" seeking DNA test:
A 25-year-old Norwegian man is reportedly seeking a DNA test to prove he is the biological son of Michael Jackson. Omer Bhatti was allegedly born after Jacko had a one-night stand back in 1984, and he and his family have always been close to the star. Omer was even invited to join the rest of the Jackson family at the star's recent memorial gig, and he sat with them in the front row. Pictures of Omer as a young child bear a striking resemblance to Michael Jackson's youngest son Prince "Blanket" Michael II, wth the same eyes, face shape and eyebrows. Omer worked as a Michael Jackson impersonator throughout most of his young life, and idolized the pop star who he first met in 1996. The young Norwegian once described Michael as "an unbelievably good human being", and he and his family even lived at the star's Neverland Ranch for a period of time in the 1990s. Last night Omer's family refused to deny the allegations, with his stepdad saying, "Make what you like."
Mischa to lose comeback role?
Replacement actresses are hastily being lined up to take over Mischa Barton's comeback role, it has been claimed. The former OC star is still in hospital in LA after being sectioned last week, and TV bosses are said to be getting anxious about her future in new show Beautiful Life. The show, which is about supermodels, was due to start filming on 22 July, but has now been pushed back by a week. Mischa's current situation has left TV bosses with no option but to have a "Plan B", in case she doesn't recover in time. Poor Mischa.

Leona saves rabbit from grisly death
Animal lover Leona Lewis rescued a pet rabbit from a homeless man in LA, because he told her he was planning to eat it. The Bleeding Love singer spotted the rabbit tethered to a lead in the streets and asked the homeless man holding it what he planned to do. When he admitted he might "eat it", an horrified Leona gave him $100 (about £61) to hand it over and told him to buy some proper food. Melrose, as he's now named after the street on which he was found, is now living it up at the star's LA pad. A friend of Leona's said, "She didn't think life on a lead was any way for a rabbit to live – then when he said he was going to eat it she knew she had to save it." That's one lucky bunny!
