Bubbles the chimp
Music wasn’t Michael Jackson’s only passion; he was also a huge animal lover with a menagerie of furry friends to put any zookeeper to shame. Here’s our look at Jacko’s animals and where they are now.
The most famous of Jacko’s animal companions, Bubbles, was adopted in 1985 from a cancer research centre.
Bubbles enjoyed the trappings of superstar status, was kitted out in clothes, given access to Michael’s bathroom, hung out on video shoots and tours and the funky monkey even picked up a few dance moves.
Where is he now?
Bubbles is still alive and well, living in the Center for Great Apes in Florida.
It was reported that plans to involve him in Michael’s memorial were scuppered due to his unruly behaviour.
