KEY POINTS:
Face-ache Michael Jackson has reportedly been forced to undergo emergency surgery to fix his lip - after it burst and collapsed.
The astonishing news comes in only days after the star was photographed brandishing what appeared to be a series of Post-it notes plastered on his face while out shopping.
And now the truth is out.
Word has it that Jacko's five-year-old son smacked Jacko on the face and caused some damage, according to reports.
A source said: "He was whacked in the face accidentally by his younger son Prince Michael II while playing around and part of Jackson's upper lip collapsed.
"That mishap led a hysterical Jacko to make a beeline for the plastic surgeon for a bit of quickie repair work."
Jacko's spokesperson has denied the singer has undergone any work. Well, he would wouldn't he.

Pushy Posh
Victoria Beckham is rapidly earning the title of Pushy Spice as she reportedly throws her weight around during the Spice Girls tour.
And now she's made an enemy of the other Spiceys by hogging and block-booking the best seats at the O2 arena in London where the group is currently performing.
Sporty, Scary, Ginger and Baby are said to be furious that their families are being relegated to seats further back in the venue.
A source said: "Victoria got in first and made sure her nearest and dearest would have the best seats in the house to see the Spice comeback.
"She booked up a whole row just for her family so they had the best view of the stage.
"The girls' jaws dropped when they found out they had been beaten to the punch by Victoria."
But, in true Posh style, rather than face a likely confrontation with the girls, she went clothes shopping instead.
Sartorial needs come before all else, eh Posh.

Spearsgate update:
Father of Jamie Lynn Spears' baby, Casey Aldridge, is in the clear as far as any charges for having sex with a minor are concerned - his age is confirmed to be 18.
Pagesix.com says his date of birth is April 29, 1989.
As I revealed yesterday Aldridge could have faced statutory rape charges had he been 19-years-old.
Phew!
One less court case, I guess...
Kate Moss gas ex Pete Doherty
Super waif Kate Moss has reportedly set her lawyers loose on druggie Pete Doherty in an attempt to stop him releasing video footage shot during their tempestuous relationship.
The Babyshambles star is currently in negotiations with a TV network in the UK to develop a tell-all type doco about their doomed romance.
The imaginatively titled Kate & Pete: A Love Story, could net Doherty a cool US$1 million if the doco goes ahead, a source tells the NY Post.
"Producers hope he'll let them use a lot of film he and Kate shot on camcorders."
But an insider tells PageSix.com, "Kate is furious with Pete. She has contacted her lawyers and plans to get an injunction to stop the production."
Some of the footage is said to be racy, hence Moss' embargo tactics.
"Some of it is really raunchy stuff Kate believed would never be seen by anyone else. She'll feel betrayed." added the source.
It's all over...
Christmas has come early for feuding divas Kate Moss and Sienna Miller.
Showbizspy.com reports that the pair has ended "the longest feud in Primrose Hill history".
Sources say Moss, 33, was spotted arriving at Miller's North London home at 1am in the morning, with a Christmas present in hand for her former rival.
The supermodel lugged what onlookers say appeared to be a painting for Miller across London in a taxi.
And the goodwill gesture seems to have done the trick. Both Miller and Moss were later spotted drinking and singing carols with Moss' boyf Rhys Ifans until the early hours of the morning.
And they all lived happily ever after...
Madonna Who
Pop grandma Madonna was reportedly approached to star in an episode of hit sci-fi series Dr. Who, but, bizarrely, the warbler turned the offer down.
Celebrity scandal website holymoly.co.uk claims that Madge was due to star in an episode titled The Last Cassandra, and that the Hung Up star had showed an initial interest in a role.
However, Madge made an about face and decided it wasn't for her and took a rain check.
So who did producers draft in at the last minute to take the diva's place? None other than brave Kylie Minogue.
Minogue grabbed the role by both hands and is set to grace TV screens all over the UK when the episode airs over there on Christmas day.
For once, Madonna's leftovers are actually worth something.
It's happening!
Led Zeppelin fans can all start jumping for joy: the tour rumours look likely to be true.
The Zeppelins are reportedly in negotiations with promoters to put on an 18-month world tour next year.
Band members Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham have all remained tight-lipped about the possibility of a musical outing, but a source close to the rockers tells the Daily Express:
"It [the tour] will kick off at next year's Glastonbury after Robert Plant has finished touring with American country star Alison Krauss. Plant and Krauss have a new album out right now and he is committed to that for the next couple of months at least."

The end result is a showdown of hilarious proportions. Swearing and slapping included.
Enjoy.

'Revolver' flops
Guy Richie's Revolver has well and truly flopped at the US box office.
The film, which had been re-edited and re-marketed for an American audience, has taken a measly US$75,000 in its first 12 days of release.
Celebrity columnist Roger Friedman said: "It's the same amount of money Madonna spends on, let's say, mascara."
He added that Revolver is "a terrible film" that had been "roundly panned" by reviewers.
"Guy Ritchie may be a lovely person, for all I know, but a great director he is not," he concluded.
And you thought I was bitchy.
