Michael Jackson’s Chimp
Bubbles’ Sanctuary Says No Jaafar Visit
… Viral Pics Are A.I.!!!
Published
Michael Jackson‘s pet chimp Bubbles is still living his best life at the Center for Great Apes … but the sanctuary’s had it with the internet running wild with the A.I.-created buzz tied to the late icon’s biopic “Michael.”
The Wauchula, Florida-based sanctuary released a statement obtained by TMZ on Tuesday … saying those viral pics of MJ’s nephew Jaafar Jackson hanging out with Bubbles are fake — not real, never happened. They add Jaafar’s never even visited … though the invite’s technically open.
The sanctuary made it crystal clear — they’re legit, accredited, and not in the business of turning their animals into meet-and-greets. No touching, no interactions … their chimps and orangutans stay protected within secure habitats.
They say they appreciate the renewed interest in Bubbles with the biopic — in which MJ’s pet makes an appearance via CGI — but they’re not here for the Hollywood circus — they’re only about care, respect, and protection.
Bottom line … no visit from Jaafar, no cozy chimp selfies … and no big-screen cameo either — so yeah, the internet might wanna stop monkeying around with the facts!
