Whatever happened to fallen star Michael Jackson? Well, it turns out the 48-year-old singer has been hiding out in a luxury castle in Ireland for the last three months. Michael is allegedly forking out $60,000 a week to stay at the exclusive Luggala Castle in County Wicklow, enjoying being waited upon by personal chefs, cleaners and butlers. At that rate, the singer could have spent around $720,000 on the break so far – despite still owing an estimated $75 million for his court cases last year. Michael has been spotted by locals taking his kids to the cinema and dining out. [5 September 2006]
