Are these statements true or just another "tabloid junkie" speculations?

1. MJ used to talk with mannequins and caress toy babies, because he felt lonely and dreamed of having children.
2. MJ sabotaged Invincible album, adding weakest songs on album and leaving best material for future, because he wanted to take revenge on Sony, who ruined all his plans for this album.
3. You Rock My World video was never fully finished. This could explained, why plot makes no sence, why there is weird moment with Marlon Brando and big epic explosion wasn't included in final cut.
4. MJ never wanted to do MSG 2001 performances, but he was forced to do it, so he used meds.
5. MJ never liked his appearance and called himself a lizard in one of interviews.
6. Unbreakable video was ment to be a sequel to You Rock My World video and was planned to return Chris Tucker. Budget is 10 million dollars, lots of CGi of Burning Michael and Notorious BIG as a big hologram. Mel Gibson and Brad Ratner were going to be directors.

Certain of these statements are true.

For example, Michael Jackson stated to his close friend Rabbi Shmuley Boteach that he never liked his appearance and called himself a lizard and also that he wished that he could never be photographed or be seen due to his horrible appearance.

Also, Michael Jackson treated mannequins like they were real people, meaning he would talk to them, he would hug them, he would cry on their shoulders, and so on, as implied by the singer's interviews.

But, regarding the music videos, 'Unbreakable' was apparently never meant to be a sequel to 'You Rock My World' (American filmmaker George Lucas was also a candidate for directing the 'Unbreakable' music video).

Personally, I think point number 2 was something MJ may have done on a subconscious level. He was least involved on that album in comparison to his other albums, and noticeably wrote the least number of songs on it. I don't think he wanted to sabotage it, I think he was too much of a perfectionist/professional for that, but his lack of involvement does speak volumes and I think it comes across in the final product. Invincible isn't a bad album but something felt off.

With regards to point number 4, David Guest did a documentary called 'Michael Jackson, the life of an icon', he spoke about the MSG concerts. From memory, I recall DG saying that MJ wanted a bigger production, but DG wanted to keep to a budget. Then on the first night MJ was out of it after a visit from a doctor, he was very late to his own show, and the pictures of him from that night speak for themselves. However, DG was impressed that MJ still managed to pull off his part of the show in that state. DG had stern words with him after that show and then MJ pulled his act together for the second show.
I thought it was a fair documentary, it covered some uncomfortable areas but did it with sensitivity from what I recall.

For point number 1, in the Rabbi Tapes book, MJ states that he desperately wanted children after marrying LMP, and was broken hearted about that not happening and walked around cradling baby dolls out of his sadness.

Also for point number 1, that awful Living with MJ documentary shows MJ in a hotel room surrounded by mannequins.
