Michael Jackson’s dermatology assistant was his gay lover?

[HMG] – Of all the rumors and claims that have surfaced since Michael Jackson died last June, here’s one you didn’t see coming — An  obscure ex-assistant at his dermatologist’s office now claims he was Michael’s gay lover.

Jason Pfieffer says he met the late singer in 2008 while working in the office of Michael’s skin doctor, Arnold Klein. The pair then began a “passionate and sexual” relationship that lasted until almost the day Jackson died.

“We definitely hit it off the first time we met,” says Pfeiffer, who recalls how they bonded over their awful childhoods. “We were just sitting there and we started to cry. I went over to him and said ‘It’s going to be okay Michael.’ And we hugged.”

And Jason claims that embrace soon gained meaning;

“Then the hug was a bit more,” he recalls. “A few months later it was obvious Michael had feelings for me as well.”

And before you dismiss this as unfounded slander, Dr. Klein confirms Jason’s story;

“When you see two people looking at each other you know what’s happening,” Dr. Klein tells OK, recalling that Jackson was shirtless. “I was just very happy for both of them.”

And Jason was not swayed by Michael’s frequent denials that he was even partially gay.

“I just assumed he was probably bisexual,” he says. “I know we loved each other, I know he told me that all the time. I believe that he was probably my soul-mate.”

As further proof, Jason claims to have a voicemail message, left for him by the star. Though this has yet to be heard.

And despite marrying Lisa Marie Presley in May ’94, and Dr. Klein’s nurse, Debbie Rowe in November ’96, this is not the first time such stories have surfaced. In his wholly unauthorized [and critically savaged] 2009 biography of the singer, Ian Halperin reports that at least two other men claim to be Jackson’s ex-lovers; One was a waiter, the other an upcoming actor.

Neither has ever gone public…
