Who's Watching the Llama?

Maybe Michael wanted to hobnob with the crown prince in order to become the crown princess. Perhaps he wanted to brush up on his Arabic, Farsi and Urdu, all three spoken in the Kingdom. Whatever the case, Thomas Messereau, Jackson's star lawyer now confirms what the gossip community has long suspected; Michael Jackson is living permanently in Bahrain. The comments came in response to Jackson's having been called for jury duty in Santa Barbara. Wouldn't it be a hoot if he could serve on the jury judging Janet Arvizo, the mother of his accuser, in legal trouble for having defrauded welfare?

We certainly hope that Michael will find lots of fun things to do in Bahrain. Not only is there an oil museum there and a Museum of Pearl Diving, there are also any number of Chinese restaurants and even a Tex-Mex joint. (By Scott Rose)
