Michael's Real Choice of Moms.

According to gossip Web site TMZ, Debbie Rowe is going to fight for custody of the two children born during her three-year marriage to Michael Jackson.

But using my deeply embedded sources in Los Angeles, I was able to procure a recent copy of Michael Jackson’s will. Of particular interest was the list of women Jackson preferred – in ascending order – to take custody of his three children in the event of his death.

Debbie might have to get in line.

Keep this on the low. And don’t tell anyone else where you saw this:

1. Mom. :)

2. Diana Ross.

3. Rebbie.

4. Janet.

5. Jackie, Marlon, Jermaine or Tito. Whoever calls dibs.

6. Angela Bassett.

7. The Liberian Girl.

8. Dirty Diana.

9. Debbie.

10. Billie Jean.

11. Emmanuel always told me Katherine was nice. Maybe her.

12. Anyone but Joe or LaToya.

    I’m shocked that Elizabeth Taylor isn’t on the list.
