It's been revealed today that Michael Jackson had confessed to close friends that he was secretly terrified of manager Dr Tohme Tohme, even trying to get rid of the shady character.

Jacko confessed to his spiritual adviser: "I did a complete check on Dr Tohme. He's done a divide between me and my representatives, and I don't talk to my lawyer or my accountant. I talk to him, and he talks to them. I know it's not good, I don't like it. I want to get someone in there with him that I know and I can trust. I don't know what's in my accounts, I don't know."
