‘Castrated to sing high’

-

MICHAEL Jackson (pictured) was “chemically castrated” by his father Joe according to the late star’s doctor.

Conrad Murray said Joe, who died from cancer last month, was “cruel” to his children.

“Joe Jackson was one of the worst fathers to his children in history,” Dr Murray told The Blast. “The cruelty expressed by Michael that he experience­d at the hand of his father.

“The fact that he was chemically castrated to maintain his high-pitched voice is beyond words.”

Dr Murray has previously claimed the Jackson family patriarch would give Michael hormone injections to stop his voice from getting deeper.

The doctor said Michael told him he was so scared of his dad he would vomit when he saw him.

Michael’s son Prince has previously defended his grandfathe­r. In a video posted on Instagram he told his followers Joe had done no wrong.

“Y’all can keep on talking all this s---, saying he abused my dad and all this and you’ll make a YouTube video about it for sure. But he raised these kids right, otherwise they would have been in gangs or f--ing dead.”

Joe, who died on June 27, aged 89, was buried in the same California cemetery as his late son.
