Michael Jackson was ‘chemically castrated’

The King of Pop’s doctor has claimed that Michael Jackson’s father wanted him to retain his highpitche­d voice

-

Pop legend Michael Jackson was “chemically castrated” by his father, according to the late star’s doctor, Conrad Murray. Murray said Joe Jackson, who died from cancer last month, was “cruel” to his children.

“Joe Jackson was one of the worst fathers to his children in history,” Murray told The Blast, a publicatio­n.

Murray said Michael had talked about the cruelty he had experience­d at the hands of his father. “The fact that he was chemically castrated to maintain his high-pitched voice is beyond words.”

Murray has previously claimed the Jackson family patriarch would give Michael hormone injections to stop his voice from getting deeper, reports The Daily Telegraph.

The doctor also said that Michael told him he was so scared of his father that 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 that Joe had done no wrong.

He said, “One of the things I’m going to talk about today is my grandpa about what you all got to f***ing say about him. So you all can keep on talking all this s***, saying he abused my dad... But he raised these kids right, otherwise they would have been in gangs or f***ing dead. So go ahead, keep talking s***, but you won’t ever be as great as one of that man’s f***ing balls in his n******.”.
