These press headlines came actually from Michael Jackson, and most of them were fake stories.
He came up with such fake (and harmless) stories about himself around that time, and then he started planting them on the press.
This was part of his strategy to remain in the spotlight even when he was not releasing new music or when he was not performing.
He used many of these fake press stories also on his ‘Leave Me Alone’ music video.

Michael Jackson even used to take film lessons from the American actress Jane Fonda when he was staying with her while she was filming her ‘On Golden Pond’ film in early ‘80s.
He had a tape recorder always with him and he would record Jane Fonda while she was telling him stories and lessons about films and acting in general.
