Michael Jackson Nixes Papal Duet Rumors
Fading pop star Michael Jackson is denying reports that he will be singing a collection of prayers penned by the late Pope John Paul II. "Contrary to published reports in Italy, and the United States, Michael Jackson has not participated in any discussions with the Vatican or Edizioni Musicali Terzo Millennio, an Italian music label specializing in religious songs, to record music to Pope John Paul II's prayers," Jackson spokeswoman Raymone K.
