Michael Jackson's lady make 2007-01-01

Michael Jackson has been caught in the ladies toilets - applying make-up.

The eccentric star triggered a security alert in a Dubai shopping mall when he was spotted powdering his nose in the communal loos. Jacko, wearing a woman's Arabic headscarf, wandered into the wrong toilets, removed his disguise and started applying rouge to his cheeks.

A woman, standing at the next mirror, reportedly squealed in horror when she recognised the singer's famous face, before taking photos on her mobile phone.

Jackson, who has been living in Bahrain since being cleared of sex abuse charges, let out a screech in return, which saw his bodyguards rush to his side.

The horrified woman - a Tunisian teacher - then told a frightened-looking Jackson she was going to take the photos to police, according to UAE newspaper Khaleej Times. Fellow shoppers then saw the mall's guards try to take the phone off the woman, before cops turned up to break-up the struggle.

Jackson was seen being led away to a blacked-out car as the police squad arrived. Dubai police have confirmed they attended the bizarre incident at the capital's Battuta Mall over the weekend.


Dubai police chief Abdul Jalil Mehdi said he had demanded the woman hand over her phone so he could delete the photos. Under local law it is forbidden to take unauthorised pictures to sell for profit.
No action is to be taken against Jackson Mehdi added: "The situation is sorted out"
