Michael Jackson's pals feared for his life | The Sun |News "Spoonbender" I can deal, but you put 'em together...and..."

FRANTIC Uri Geller found Michael Jackson so sedated on a trip to the UK he SCREAMED at him to wake up, The Sun can reveal.

Spoonbender Geller battled to rouse his pal after the superstar's aides fixed up a private visit to London Zoo - which had to be scrapped because he was so out of it.

Geller, 62, last night said of the hotel scare: "I was so worried about him. The trouble is nobody said 'no' to Michael and that was a big problem."

Fighting back his grief over the King of Pop's death, Geller revealed for the first time how he often found himself yelling at the singer over his addiction to prescription drugs.

Distraught

He said: "I told him - shouting and screaming - that he would die if things continued as they were."

His chilling revelations came as Jacko's Brit bodyguard also lifted the lid on the star's hell, exclusively telling The Sun how the singer:

FEARED the gruelling run of dates looming at London's O2 arena would be too much - telling him barely a week before he died: "I don't know how I'm going to do 50 shows."

VOWED in another phone call to quit the music business before it killed him - declaring: "I will not end up like Elvis."

PANICKED his entourage who had to beg him to eat - while he let "parasite" doctors pump him full of drugs.

HID the fact a woman nobody knew about was his secret long-term GIRLFRIEND.

Matt Fiddes - Jacko's former head of security and one of his most trusted aides - said of the mystery lover: "She wasn't a celebrity figure - absolutely not." He added sadly: "I imagine she is distraught right now."

Leeches

Martial arts expert Matt, 30, of Barnstaple, Devon, became one of Jacko's closest friends after meeting him thanks to Geller in 1998.

But he watched in horror as the singer hired a succession of private physicians.

Matt branded them "leeches" who had no qualms about dosing their troubled patient with sedatives to relax him - or "uppers" to lift his mood.

The cocktail of drugs left Jacko so weak he regularly slept for DAYS at a time and missed important business meetings. Disgusted Matt said:

The doctors would change every few months - but there was always one there who would often claim just to be a friend.

It went two ways with what they did with Michael. Either he'd be totally sedated or they'd give him something which would make him incredibly high.

When that happened he would chant or be very overexcitable. He had clearly been given some kind of amphetamine-based prescription medication. That concerned the heck out of me.

If you give someone a sedative and then they take an upper, your heart doesn't know where to go. But none of his aides questioned it. If you did that you were thrown out from the court of "yes" men surrounding him.

Recalling Jacko's 2003 trip to London, Matt said: "We had a suite at a top hotel.

"His doctor was there and in the evening he would make me double lock my hotel room door, which was right next to where Michael was.

"He would come in and clearly make sure I was out of the way while he was in the room with Michael.

LONDON – Two of Michael Jackson's former confidantes, medium Uri Geller and ex-bodyguard Matt Fiddes, say they tried in vain to keep the pop superstar from abusing painkillers and other prescription drugs suspected of leading to his death — but others in the singer's circle kept the supplies flowing.

"When Michael asked for something, he got it. This was the great tragedy," Geller said Thursday.

Geller, who said he suffered a terrible falling-out with Jackson several years ago over the issue, said he often had "to shout at Michael, to scream at Michael" as he sought to confiscate the singer's stocks of medication during his travels in England.

"I tried to drum sense into his brain," Geller said. "I told him, 'Michael you're going to die, Michael you're going to kill yourself.' But he just stared at me. Many a time he was in his bed and I stood and shouted at him. He just stared at me."

Speaking at his home near London, Geller said he slept on floors or sofas in Jackson's hotel suites in a bid to talk sense into his sometimes-incoherent friend.

"Most of the people around Michael could not say `No!' to him. He desperately needed someone there all the time who could say `No!' and mean it, who could warn him of the dangers ... and tell him the truth," Geller said. "The big problem was that many people wanted to help Michael, to save his life, but we could not be there all the time."

Geller said Jackson relied on medications to help him cope with relentless pressure and media criticism in his later years. "With his sanity buffeted and health wracked by global bullying nonstop, I think it's actually incredible that Michael held up as well as he did," he said.

Fiddes, an English karate instructor who worked as a senior bodyguard during Jackson's travels in Britain for a decade, said the pop idol abused prescription medications, not recreational drugs, and took so much that it could be difficult to wake him for engagements.

"I confiscated packages and Uri did too. I mean, Uri confiscated injection equipment from his room," Fiddes said in an interview broadcast Thursday by Sky News. "And Uri would scream at Michael, you know, intensely, to stop doing this. But we just were getting pushed out."

Fiddes recalled one occasion when Jackson planned to visit London Zoo to see the gorillas, chimpanzees and other primates — but was too spaced out to go anywhere.

The bodyguard said he and Geller "were both shaking him trying to wake him up. It was clear that he had taken something that morning and he was hard to wake. We were extremely concerned ... We couldn't get him in a state that would portray him in a good light."

Fiddes said both he and Geller told others supplying medications to Jackson to stop, but when their efforts "got back to Michael, he would have a screaming fit that we were interfering with his private life. He was in denial."

However, Geller said he was convinced that "Michael did not want to die."

"Michael loved life," he said. "Michael loved his children. They were everything to him."

Several other Jackson confidantes have expressed concern since his death at the volume and mixture of medications he was taking. Self-help guru Deepak Chopra said he rejected Jackson's 2005 appeals for painkillers and that their relationship suffered lasting damage because of it.

Geller said he was fearful that Jackson could not have completed his planned 50-concert run in London, which was due to start July 13. Stress over the imminent comeback, as well as drug misuse, combined to kill his friend, he said.

"Whatever the autopsy will come back with, part of what made Michael Jackson's heart stop involved the stress and the anxiety that, 'My God, in a few days I have to get on a plane and fly to England.' But he could have done it," Geller said.

Jacko Jack London - Arnold Omar: DRUGS ALIAS SAYS US Drug Enforcement Agency - International Stars - Entertainment - The Times of India

Late King of Pop Michael Jackson believably at least two aliases, including the name of the American author

Jack London, to obtain drugs.

This has emerged as investigators from the US Drug Enforcement Agency have been called in to by the Los Angeles Police Department to probe into how the ‘ Thriller’ hitmaker was able to obtain a cocktail of drugs found at his rented home.

If reports are to be believed, London’s novel ‘The Call of the Wild’ is thought to have been one of Jackson's favourite books.

The book’s story revolves around a domesticated dog who returns to the wild in Canada's Yukon Territory in the 19th Century.

Jackson is also believed to have used the alias Arnold Omar, as well as the names of members of his staff, when getting his drugs.

The singer’s body is believed to have had a series of injection marks on it.

Federal officers from the DEA will help investigate Jackson's use of painkillers and sedatives, including Demerol.

"We routinely offer assistance to any agency regarding the Federal Controlled Substance Act," the Telegraph quoted a DEA spokesman as saying.
