My, my, my, Joe Jackson isn’t missing a beat…no pun intended! According to DailyMail, Joe Jackson suffered a stroke and three heart attacks after a night of partying with younger women in Brazil – amid claims that he took Viagra pills. The 87-year-old flew into the country two weeks ago for a pleasure trip set to include a $200,000-birthday blowout in his honor but ended up being rushed to hospital on the eve of the celebration.
Now as he recovers in Sao Paulo after being released today from hospital, it has emerged the temptations of the Brazilian party city may have been physically too much for Michael Jackson’s father. Just hours after his arrival in the country, the Jackson patriarch was spotted dining with a group of ladies including a voluptuous – and much younger – woman at an upscale restaurant….
Apparently Joe took three (3) Viagra to get things popping! He was pictured with an attractive redhead and other women, and was said to have been out until the early hours.
He was ‘feeling unwell’ the following day – July 26 -, according to his representative, and was eventually taken to hospital for what turned to have been a stroke. It was followed by multiple cardiac arrests – including one where his heart stopped for 10 seconds – that led doctors to fit him with a pacemaker.
‘It was too much for him and he suffered a stroke,’ a representative says, adding that his entourage was left ‘shocked’ by the incident.
Either way, Jackson ended up missing his lavish party, which went ahead on his request.
The women accompanying him are dancers who form part of his entourage, local sources said.
Jackson continues his recovery after being released today from the Albert Einstein Hospital, where daughter Janet Jackson is said to have come visit him. His son Jermaine Jackson was also present. An insider insisted he came to the country to celebrate his birthday with friends, although other reports say he was trying to negotiate deals for shows for The Jacksons, a band featuring his other sons.
