Bubbles the chimp has a new mummy... and two new daddies! Aussie radio hosts Merrick Watts, Scott Dooley and Ricki-Lee Coulter have adopted Michael Jackson's former pet chimpanzee.
The Nova radio hosts paid $10,000 to become Bubbles' "parents" for a year.
"We've adopted Bubbles!! Well, for a year at least," the team announced on their website. "He's now our adopted monkey-child! We reckon he's a great addition to the Nova team for a cool $10k and it brings us a bit closer to Michael Jackson too!"
But Bubbles won't be boarding a plane to Australia to move in with his new trio of parents, he'll continue to live at the luxurious Orange Grove retirement home (for apes) in Florida, while the Nova team's ten grand will help pay for his upkeep.
Seems odd though - we assumed MJ would have paid Bubbles' board upfront when he checked him into the retirement home. And isn't the chimp included in Michael's will?
