EXCLUSIVE: 'I'M the daddy!' Singer dismisses 'DNA evidence' his son is Michael Jackson's secret lovechild insisting 'his mother never went with anyone else'

This afternoon, DNA evidence that was claimed to have been collected from the late superstar's dental impression bought by Beverly Hills dentist Dr Joseph Goodman, was said to prove that Brandon is the singer's secret son.

Although the impression is 30 years old and taken at the time Michael filmed the movie Moonwalker,
it is said to still contain plenty of DNA.

Dr Goodman read out the results at a press conference streamed live by Alki David and his company, FilmOn.com.

However, actor Corey Feldman - a friend of both Michael Jackson and up and coming singer Brandon - who goes by the stage name B Howard - immediately questioned the veracity of the results, saying: I'm being the Devil’s Advocate, people are going to dry and demand for more specific proof of this.'

David would not name the laboratories where the results were obtained, but said the DNA was matched at two labs, one in Utah and another in Ireland.

Brandon gave his own DNA in a mouth swab, but Corey claimed he was not doing this for publicity - rather to find out the truth, saying: 'B Howard never claimed to be Michael's son, but it haunted him his whole life,

'We've really become very close over the last year or two and the thing that struck me no matter what was that he has the spirit of Michael Jackson, he sounds like him, moves like him, he has all the God's given talent like him.

'He's written and produced for T3, Tito Jackson's son's band, he's been involved with multiple Jackson works over the past few years.

'It's not been denied that he's part of the family, we just don't know what part of the family.'

Asked if he thinks Brandon IS Michael's son, Corey admitted: 'Personally, I do think he is. It felt like Michael was walking into my house again. I've never met two people alike. That said - I'm not a doctor.'

Speaking from his home in California, Augie admitted that Brandon DID meet Michael, who died aged 50 in June 2009, when he was a little boy and had made frequent trips to the star's ranch, Neverland, with his mother or Michael's brother Jermaine, and made friends with the Jackson family children.

However, he said: 'We had a relationship with the Jacksons, an entertainment relationship.

'The first time Brandon will have met the Jacksons is when he was three and Nicholas was one and we met Joe Jackson, he was managing Side Effect - or Joe said he was going to do something, but he never did and we left.

'Brandon met Michael a couple of times at his ranch. Miki took them there and sometimes Jermaine took them. Miki had a record and she got more successful and Brandon started hanging out with the Jackson kids.

'Brandon spent a lot of time with Jackson kids over there, this was during the time when Miki and I broke up and she was hating me for a few years because we didn't get married.'

When asked if he would be happy to take a DNA text himself, Augie said 'Oh yeah! That's not a problem.

'My name is on his birth certificate, when people talk to me, I tell them the truth. I know my son- he's got a lot of drama going on.

Brandon was once praised as the 'reincarnation of Michael Jackson'.

However, Augie said: 'They have these pictures with Michael and Brand on looking alike, but how can you compare my son and Michael. Michael don't look like that - that's not his original look.

'Brandon just happens to be one of those kids - the wannabe Michael kids - his whole life. He loved Michael Jackson so much.

'He wanted to look more like him and  he had a little success in Japan, that’s where this whole thing started. It became this mystery that he would never answer.

'It's been a plan for a long time, he wants to help his career, that's what I believe.

'Any kind of controversy that gets out there in the world, right now, helps.'

Miki Howard joined Side Effect as a 16-year-old singer, and asked about any romance with Michael, Augie said: 'She was never romantically involved with Michael. He didn't even know her.'

Now friendly again with Miki, Augie said he spoke to her today, adding: 'Miki thinks Brandon is losing his mind!'

Affair: Brandon Howard is said to be the product of an affair Michael Jackson had with the singer's mother Miki Howard. The pair are said to have met in 1982, shortly before he was born in 1983. But today, his father Augie Johnson dismissed the claims

'Everybody has their own thing - I don't let that worry me. Brandon's mine and Miki's son, so I don't worry too much. He knows I'm his dad.

'First of all - Brandon don't look nothing like Michael, Michael had all that surgery to make him look that way, anyone can look like that if you have your face lifted - don't get it twisted.'

The last time Augie spoke to Brandon was yesterday and he said: 'He keeps saying it’s not him…he sounded distraught and said 'I don't know why people are saying this! These people want me to be Michael!'

'But my son's a good actor....I say 'Brandon do what you gotta do'. Today's world is so crazy I'm just glad he's not in a sex video!'

Augie - who appeared in the Adam Sandler movie 'I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry' and started his career by singing back-up on Frank Sinatra's hit 'High Hopes' - added: 'Brandon told me 'Let me handle it'…he always lets me know anything that might bother me.

'But I've been in the business so long, nothing  bothers me anymore as long as my life and my health is good, everybody got their own life.'

Asked about Brandon, Howard Weitzman, Jackson's estate lawyer, told TMZ: 'We've never even heard from him," when asked about Howard's claim.

He added that 'any deadline for claiming to be Michael's child has long since passed'.

Brandon - known as B Howard - today put up a Facebook video, shortly before the DNA results were revealed, in which he said: 'It seems a lot of people are speaking on my behalf, so I'm going to keep this short and simple.

'1,I did not call TMZ, I didn't put out a story, nothing. 2, I never proclaimed to be his son, 3, I am definitely not suing the estate, I have been taken care of very well and also I make my own cash, 4, It's true I had a DNA test, but this had nothing to do with any of this, I swear on my life.

'I'm done, wherever you guys go from here, that's what it is and whatever the DNA results come out to be, the results, it is what it is.

'This is coming from me personally, so spread it around and make sure everybody knows this is me, okay, me, alright? So thank-you for listening and talk to you soon.

Family friends: Brandon Howard - who will today reveal the results of a DNA text that will unveil whether he's Michael Jackson's secret lovechild - poses with the Jackson brothers

Brandon has long been compared to the Billie Jean singer, but has said in the past the similarity is not intentional.

'I just do what’s naturally in my heart, and that’s what comes out,' he told EUR’s Lee Bailey: 'I’m doing me.'

'Who hasn’t been inspired by Michael and the Jackson brothers?' he added.

'Most of the people out now, even my good friend Ne-Yo, he’s come out with the sequined jacket and everything. For me, it’s more of I’m doing me. …I’m just me. I’m Brandon.'

His musical legacy spans to his mother Miki and his grandmother, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Josephine Howard.

And his career has been gaining momentum, and he worked on songs with many multi-platinum selling artists including pop superstar Akon —an artist who was very close to Michael and released the star' last ever song, Hold My Hand.

At the time of Michael’s death, he was named in more than six lawsuits, and 65 creditors’ claims were filed after he died.

Claims: Shortly after Michael Jackson's death in June 2009, his father claimed Omer Bhatti, who sat with the family in the front row at Jacko's funeral, was his fourth child. But the Norwegian dancer, pictured (left) with MJ in Tunis when he was 12, denied the claims

Brandon's resume reveals a long list of stars the singer, songwriter and producer has collaborated with.

They include Ne-yo, Chris Brown, Missy Elliot, Lupe Fiasco and Vanessa Hudgens.

Last year, he teamed up with Wyclef Jean and Jazmine Sullivan for the World Cup son Ke Nako.

Howard has three different record deals across the world, including a production pact with Universal Music, linked to his own company 6 Point Entertainment.

The Jackson family have faced previous claims by people who believed they were the offspring of the star, who died in June 2009.

In 2009, Joe Jackson, Michael's father, said he believed Norwegian dancer Omer Bhatti was Jacko's fourth child.

Joe said at the time: 'I knew Michael had another son, yes I did.

'He looks like a Jackson, he acts like a Jackson and he can dance like a Jackson.'

But the rapper, who claimed to be Michael Jackson's best friend, denied he was the King of Pop's love child, despite being given a front row seat at his funeral.

PLAGUED BY LAWSUITS: THE JACKSON ESTATE IS WORTH $7BILLION

Lawsuits: At the time of his death in 2009, Michael Jackson was named in more than six lawsuits

At the time of Michael Jackon’s death, the singer was named in more than six lawsuits, and 65 creditors’ claims were filed after he died.

Since his passing in 2009, the superstar had a resurgence of popularity, causing the executors of his estate to try and find ways to re-release his works.

It has propelled his wealth and he is still the highest earning dead celebrity in the world, raking in around $160million last year. However the amount he left in his estate is widely disputed.

He was reportedly $500million debt, but last month, his executors were accused of cheating taxpayers out of millions of dollars by allegedly undervaluing his wealth.

Legal documents filed with the U.S. Tax Court in Washington, which were obtained by the L.A. Times, said that after Jackson died in June 2009, the executors of his estate valued the singers net worth at around $7billion. However the IRS disputed the figure and claim MJ is actually worth a staggering $1.125 billion.

A number of projects released after his death, however lucrative, have also caused legal issues.

Last year his producer Quincy Jones, sought $10million after claiming a deal for his material was breach when the soundtrack for documentary ‘This Is It’ and the 25th anniversary edition of the Bad album were released.  

Last October, the family also lost a $13billion lawsuit against his concert promoters AEG, claiming failing to prove the company were negligent for hiring Conrad Murray, who was jailed for his involuntary manslaughter in 2011.

In 2012, Michael Jackson's father dropped a wrongful death lawsuit filed against the former doctor who was convicted of causing the singer's death.

Estate: The star's estate, which includes his Neverland ranch (pictured), was valued at $7billion

Court records show Joe Jackson's request for a dismissal. The filings did not elaborate on a reason for dropping pursuit of the case.

In 2013, Debbie Rowe threatened to sue Michael Jackson's doctor over accusations she stole Demerol to supply to the late star.

The 54-year-old nurse got involved in a bitter war of words with dermatologist Dr. Arnold Klein - who introduced Debbie to Michael after being employed as a nurse by him in the 1980s - on Twitter, after he alleged she took the powerful painkillers from his practice to feed the singer's addiction.
