What caused Michael Jackson's death? Is his will valid? Who fathered his children?
Endless questions have been raised in the wake of the tragic passing of the King of Pop, but here's one we didn't think to ask until People magazine already answered it:
What ever happened to Bubbles?
Bubbles, the pet chimpanzee that Jackson toted around like a baby during the 1980s, has been out of the limelight for years, but did Jackson's pet primate burn out or just fade away?
People discovered Bubbles has been living happily for the past four years at the Center for Great Apes, a primate sanctuary in Florida. Patti Ragan, the director of the facility, which houses 41 other chimps and orangutans, describes him as "a very sweet and nice chimp."
Bubbles, who is 26 now, has grown substantially since his MJ days - he now clocks in at 160 lbs and likes to spend his days "eating sweet potatoes, listening to flute-and-guitar music, painting."
No one has mentioned Jackson's passing to the chimp. Ragan tells People:
"We haven't said anything to him yet," she says, adding that his mood over the past few days has been typically chimp-like: "He's been his usual self, interacting with friends, eating well, taking cover when it rains."
