Michael Jackson’s disgraced doctor Conrad Murray ‘in talks to appear on I’m A Celebrity’
The medic to head Down Under for the jungle-based reality show
MICHAEL Jackson’s former doctor Conrad Murray is in talks to appear on this year’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here.
The disgraced doctor, who was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter over the singer’s death, will be headed to Australia to talk part in the sixteenth series of the reality show.
Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, Dr Conrad’s publicist Max Markson said: “It is true. We are talking to the show's producers about having Conrad in the jungle for the next show."
Dr Murray has not worked since he was found guilty in 2011 and was jailed for four years, of which he served two before being released on licence.
He was Jackson’s personal physician before his death in 2009 from a massive overdose of the general anaesthetic propofol.
The news about Murray joining the celebrity line-up comes a week after he released his tell-all book called This Is It.
In his memoirs, he makes shocking claims about the late singer including the one that he took hormones to stop his voice breaking.

Murray said Jackson confided in him that that his high-pitched singing voice wasn’t a natural phenomenon, it was down to injections administered to him as a child.
Conrad also claimed that had sex sessions with “extremely thin” call girls while dressed as a clown or wearing a surgical mask.
The star would go out in disguise, sometimes even posing as a stroke victim, so he could slake his lust without being recognised.
Markson added: “I'm sure everyone will be fascinated to hear what Conrad has to say about his time with Michael.
"He's a doctor, very calm and great with people and he has some extraordinary stories to tell. He'd be a great draw and I'm sure he'd be a fascinating guest for the show."
The Sun Online has contacted Markson for further comment.
