Who Will Get the Jackson Kids?

Trying to figure out Michael Jackson's children is like contemplating the meaning of life. It will make your head hurt, turn you into an alcoholic, and in the end you will never be able to reach a conclusion. So how the legal battles for custody of his three kids will play out is anybody's guess.

An obvious choice would be Debbie Rowe, Jackson's second wife and "mother" of Michael Joseph Jackson Jr., known as Prince, and Paris Michael Katherine Jackson, but what about Blanket? To my knowledge his mother has never been revealed, and as far as we know he could just be Bubbles in a surgical mask. Maybe Billie Jean Jackson will get him.

Anyway...

Stacey Brown, co- author of Michael Jackson Behind the Mask said that "Michael's mother Katherine wants the kids, but Michael always said he wants Grace, the nanny, to have them if something happened to him." You may remember during Jackson's molestation trial, his parents told Barbara Walters that they thought he should lose the children, and they would adopt them if he did. So I'm guessing that their offer is still on the table.

"Grace" is Grace Rwaramba, who has worked for Wacko for almost 20 years and has been said to be one of his closest confidants. So to recap we got, Debbie Rowe, Billie Jean Jackson, Michael's Parents, and Grace Rwaramba all in the running to own the kids.

The Jackson family attorney Brian Oxman told Early Show co-anchor Harry Smith, "I suspect that the death of Michael Jackson is only the beginning of the legal battles over not only his property, but also his children."

We'll keep you updated.
