Jackson may sue Eminem

New York: Michael Jackson (in the picure) is threatening to sue Eminem over a music video in which the rapper refers mockingly to the child abuse allegations against Mr. Jackson and ridicules his plastic surgery. Mr. Jackson, who is expected to face trial on molestation charges early next year in California, has demanded that all U.S. cable music video channels cease showing the video for Just Lose It. In it, Mr. Eminem appears, dressed as Mr. Jackson, on a bed surrounded by young boys and singing: ``Come here, little kiddie, on my lap. Guess who is back with a brand new rap?'' ``And I do not mean rap as in a new case of child molestation,'' Mr. Eminem adds. Subsequently in the video his nose appears to fall off and his hair catches fire — the latter being a reference to an incident that befell Mr. Jackson during the filming of a Pepsi advert in 1984.
