The 'Bad' Old Days of Bubbles the Chimp

Even in death, Michael Jackson continues to thrill media outlet editors. There’s the controversy over his brand new posthumous single “Breaking News,” recorded in 2007 and – some Jacko fans claim – remixed and sweetened by one or more unnamed vocalists.

Now comes news of something even stranger – the auctioning of a two-piece “Bad” leather outfit ensemble originally designed for the singer’s pet chimp Bubbles (pictured). The item goes up for bid at Julien’s in Beverly Hills December 3rd-4th and is expected to fetch somewhere between $2,000 and $4,000.
