Michael Jackson’s eldest son Prince was reportedly “stunned” as he watched doctors battle to save his father’s life.

The 12-year-old lad was reportedly stood nearby when the family’s personal doctor frantically tried to save the star, according to the family’s biographer Stacy Brown.

He said: “The horror of it all is Prince thought his dad was just being his dad and clowning, but it was real and he watched as they worked on him. Prince was stunned – in a trance – just watching.

“There was no movement, just looking around and not really processing what was really happening.”

A family insider added: “The three children had been taken to another room by their nannies but they thought their dad was just fooling around.

“He often played dead and would then jump up and surprise them, so they thought he was just having a bit of fun. But when they saw the emergency trucks arrive, that really shook them.

“The kids were terrified and started crying and howling for their dad.”

It is claimed the children were with their grandmother Katherine, 79, in a hospital waiting room when they were later told he had died.

Michael’s manager Frank DiLeo said it was the “single most painful moment” of his life telling the children he had died.

Reports claim the Jackson family are keen for the children to stay with Michael’s mother Katherine, 79, however the eldest two children’s mother Debbie Rowe could file for custody.

Mischa Barton, 23, the essence of the all American girl in The OC, is actually British, she told the UK newspaper The Daily Mail. She was born in Hammersmith and raised in New York.

Speaking in Soho recently, she said: “I’m British, though everyone thinks I’m American. I haven’t lived here since I was tiny, but my entire family is British and I’ve been raised as a Brit. My sister lives and works in London as a barrister, but nobody can get their head round the fact I’m anything but a Hollywood girl. In the US, nobody thinks of me as American, and here, nobody believes I’m British.”

Barton said she was embarrassed to admit it, but she consciously tried to lose her English accent. “When I lived in New York, I tried really hard to ditch the British accent to fit in. I went to classes and everything. I ended up putting on this terrible ‘Nu Yawk’ accent and hid behind that for a while. Now I don’t try to hide it so much, but my accent slips all over the place. It’s a mess – I don’t sound like I’m from anywhere any more.”

She also revealed that she was once physically attacked by a fan in Milan. “This guy just jumped on me. It totally freaked me out. I don’t think he meant it badly, but it was still scary. Men come up to me a lot, but it’s never to chat me up. I don’t know if they’re intimidated by me or what. It’s like they’re not doing it to hit on me. They just want a picture with me on their camera phone because they’ve seen me in a movie. It’s wild because they think they know you – guys talk to me like I’ve known them for years, when we’ve only just met.”

Barton says she is not part of the Paris Hilton set. “People think I’m part of that whole Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan set and it’s frustrating. I’m not like that; I have a pretty normal life. People always seem to write lots of untrue things about me. I’ve just learned to laugh at it and move on. I also surround myself with people who are nothing like the Hollywood set – my family are really intelligent and academic, so they keep me grounded no matter what.”

She also said she has posed partly nude and has been arrested for drunk driving.

“I took my top off for Cosmopolitan. I’d never do a fully nude shoot, though. I was shot from my chest up and everyone speaks about it like I was naked. I really wasn’t. I’d never do a naked shoot – that’s just not me,” she said.

Leaving the OC was difficult: “When I left The OC there were a lot of mixed emotions. It was an extreme four years of my life, so it was kind of bittersweet.

British royal Prince Harry reportedly enjoyed a meal with Aussie singer Natalie Imbruglia following a night at a rock concert.

Harry, 24, was spotted having a burger in the VIP area at the Hard Rock Calling event in Hyde Park, London.

It is claimed the pair struck up a good friendship when Harry split with his girlfriend Chelsy Davy earlier this year.

An onlooker said: “Harry looked absolutely delighted to see Natalie when she arrived. They embraced warmly and shared a quick kiss. They were dancing and joking together for the entire duration of The Killers’ set.

“At dinner, afterwards, they carried on chatting and laughing like old friends. Tom Jones joined them during their meal. They were having a whale of a time, drinking beer and wine before a round of shots.”

Could Fall Out Boy be splitting up? The band’s most famous member, Pete Wentz, took to the internet last week to chat with some of the band’s fans. Also, on a Twitter account which he created just for the day and later deleted, he released some interesting information. When someone asked whether they could expect a new FOB CD next year, Pete replied with “I’m not sure. This may be the swan song. But we might have another in us. We’ll see.” In an interview later that week, Pete tried to elaborate saying “No, we’re not calling it quits, but [we've got] no future album plans right now.”
