Michael Jackson Gets Hitched Again Pop Star Marries Woman Carrying His Baby

Who could have imagined Michael Jackson would do something so … conventional?

The Gloved One gave matrimony another chance Thursday and married Debbie Rowe, the woman carrying his baby.

“They did it,” a frazzled Jackson publicist Christine Holevas confirmed in Los Angeles on Thursday.

The wedding ceremony took place during a private ceremony at the Sheraton on the Park Hotel after Jackson’s evening concert, said a spokesman for the Australian tour promoter, Dainty Consolidated Entertainment.

Jackson’s fans and a pack of reporters staked out the posh downtown Sydney hotel today as the Gloved One and his new Loved One began their married life, but got nary a glimpse of the newlyweds.

“Please respect our privacy and let us enjoy this wonderful and exciting time,” Jackson said in a statement.

Presumably, that’s what they were doing in the presidential suite on the 21st floor.

“He’s basically been staying in the hotel, watching videos, reading, that kind of thing,” Dainty Consolidated Entertainment spokesman Brett Hlywa said. “He’s just been taking it easy. Because the weather’s been so hot, he’s decided to stay inside.”

Back home, Southern Californians reacted with disbelief and a collective “get real.”

“I think he’s as likely to find happiness in this marriage as he is to find work as a baritone,” said John Wilson, a Los Angeles entertainment promoter.

“You’re kidding! What a freakin’ crock! It’s a joke, puh-leeze!” said Julia Hubner, a 26-year-old Malibu restaurant hostess.

Jackson is 38 and Rowe, who met Jackson 15 years ago at the offices of the pop star’s plastic surgeon, is 37.
