Michael Jacksons father suffers Viagra effects, stroke

Late pop star Michael Jackson’s father Joe Jackson suffered a stroke and three heart attacks after a night of partying with younger women in Brazil – amid claims that he took three Viagra pills, reports The Daily Mail, UK.

The 87-year-old flew to Brazil two weeks ago for a pleasure trip set to include a Ksh 20.3 million ($200,000) – birthday blowout in his honor but ended up being rushed to hospital on the eve of the celebration.

As he recovers in Sao Paulo after being released on Tuesday from hospital, it emerged the temptations of the Brazilian party city may have been physically too much for Joe.

Just hours after his arrival in Brazil, MJ’s dad was spotted dining with a group of ladies including a voluptuous – and much younger – woman at a high-end restaurant.

Two days later Joe went out again with the attractive young lass and other women.

The Daily Mail adds; “According to his representative, he ‘felt unwell’ the following day – July 26, and was eventually taken to hospital for what turned to have been a stroke.”

It was followed by multiple cardiac arrests – including one where his heart stopped for 10 seconds – that led doctors to fit him with a pacemaker.

Mixed Brazilian cocktails

But the story of how he got there appears to be much more salacious than anyone would imagine.

According to a Brazilian daily, O Diario de Sao Paulo, the octogenarian ‘over did it’ on his second party night with his female friends.

As they visited different bars and entertainment joints, he is said to have mixed the Brazilian cocktail of caipirinha – made with sugarcane rum – with other drinks.

But the ‘bigger problem’ was that he also had taken ‘three little blue pills’ for erectile dysfunction.

“It was too much for him and he suffered a stroke,” continued O Diario de Sao Paulo, adding that his entourage was left ‘shocked’ by the incident.

Jackson’s Public Relations assistant Lisa Crazy, however, denied the reports.

“He sleeps early and doesn’t take medicine without prescription. Nothing of this story is true,” she said.

‘This did not happen,” said his representative Charles Coupet.
