A spokesman for Michael Jackson has denied the singer is suffering from a life-threatening lung disease.Michael Jackson’s doctor has denied yesterday’s reports that the singer needs a lung transplant. Biographer Ian Halperin told the press yesterday that Jackson could barely speak, suffers from emphysema, internal bleeding, and has lost 95% of the vision in his left eye due the genetic lung disease Alpha-1 Anti-Trypsin Deficiency. “The writer's wild allegations concerning Mr Jackson's health are a total fabrication,” Dr Tohme Tohme said in a statement to Reuters. “Concerning this author's allegations, we would hope in the future that legitimate media will not continue to be exploited by such an obvious attempt to promote this unauthorised biography. Mr Jackson is in fine health and finalising negotiations with a major entertainment company and television network for both a world tour and a series of specials and appearances."
