Michael Jackson wanted to adopt Octomom Nadya Suleman’s world-famous octuplets, according to the serial mom’s former publicist.

Victor Munoz, 33, claims he was contacted by the legendary singer and his aides at the end of February with an offer to “buy” the babies from the unemployed and single Suleman.

“When Michael called I thought it was a joke at first,” he explains. “I was getting hundreds of calls every day and many from celebrities’ agents saying their client wanted to help.”

Victor continues, “But when the person on the end of the line said “Hi it’s Michael Jackson” I was a bit taken aback. Michael wanted to know how the babies were, how Nadya was coping.”

“He then said he could take care of the children if Nadya couldn’t. It was creepy. He was basically offering to buy the children. I was a bit shocked.”

Victor stopped working for Nadya, 33, on March 6, but claims he never took Michael’s alleged offer seriously.

“I just blew it off. I knew Nadya would never want to get rid of her kids so it wasn’t important.”

Michael is survived by his children Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and Prince Michael II, 7.
