The results of Michael Jackson's first autopsy have apparently been leaked.
The unconfirmed results are said to show that Jackson barely had any food in his stomach when he died last Thursday of a suspected cardiac arrest.
It is also claimed that the star was bald and had suffered extensive rib injuries when doctors attempted to revive him.
According to the Sun newspaper, Jackson, who was 5ft 10in tall, weighed just 8st 1oz when he died, and there were traces of undissolved pills in his stomach.
The newspaper also claims the autopsy results recorded that Jackson's body was covered in needle wounds from his alleged dependence on painkilling medication.
Meanwhile, there were scars on Jackson's body from his alleged 13 cosmetic operations, the newspaper said.
Jackson underwent an autopsy in Los Angeles last Friday.
The LA coroner's office said there was no foul play or evidence of external trauma, but the star's family have called for a second and independent autopsy.
Focus shifted to Jackson’s private life – and the extent of his alleged addiction to painkillers – within hours of his death.
Police in Los Angeles have interviewed Jackson's physician Dr Conrad Murray as witness over the star's death.
US media reports had claimed Dr Murray had injected the singer with Demerol, a drug similar to morphine, just before he suffered cardiac arrest.
But Dr Murray’s lawyer, Edward Chernoff, to the Los Angeles Times these claims were “absolutely false”.
As previously reported on Gigwise, stars from stage and screen paid tribute to Jackson at last night's BET awards in Los Angeles.
