Michael Jackson warned his young daughter PARIS he would lose his life just a month before his untimely death, according to a shocking new tell-all book.
Journalist Ian Halperin, who has spent years researching the late King of Pop, alleges in Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson that the pop superstar was convinced he would be murdered by those closest to him - and confided in his daughter his fears for his life.
The Thriller legend felt he was being forced into performing 50 shows at London's O2 arena - despite not feeling fit enough to go through with the gruelling residency schedule, according to Halperin.
Meanwhile, his aides were reportedly administering him with prescription drugs, which have since been suggested as the cause of Jackson's sudden cardiac arrest on 25 June (09).
Jackson is said to have spoken to Paris in a serious heart-to-heart in May (09), telling her he might not be around to celebrate Father's Day in June - which fell just four days before his sudden death.
Halperin writes, "He called her into his room and told her not to get mad at him if he didn't make it to Father's Day. He felt extremely ill.
"Unfortunately no one wanted to help him."
Young Paris stunned the world after paying an emotional tribute to her late father at his memorial service last week (07Jul09).
