Michael Jackson wanted to adopt Octomum Nadya Suleman’s babies, according to her former publicist.

Victor Munoz, 33, claims he was contacted by the singer and his aides at the end of February.

‘When Michael called I thought it was a joke at first,’ he says. ‘I was getting hundreds of calls every day and many from celebrities’ agents saying their client wanted to help. 

‘But when the person on the end of the line said “Hi it’s Michael Jackson” I was a bit taken aback. Michael wanted to know how the babies were, how Nadya was coping. 

‘He then said he could take care of the children if Nadya couldn’t. It was creepy. He was basically offering to buy the children. I was a bit shocked.’

But Michael’s reported offer wasn't taken up.

‘I just blew it off,’ Victor tells the Daily Mirror. ‘I knew Nadya would never want to get rid of her kids so it wasn’t important.’

Victor stopped working for Nadya, 33, who had eight babies in January, on 6 March. 

Michael is survived by his children Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and Prince Michael II, 7.
