Michael Jackson's nephew hits out at Harry Styles being labelled the new King of Pop

There's only one King of Pop and that's the way it has to stay, according to Michael Jackson's nephew.

The music legend earned the nickname after a sensational career that spanned almost five decades. But in a recent article, Harry Styles has appeared to have been given the title as he fronted the new Rolling Stone magazine - and Taj Jackson isn't willing to accept that.

Taj took to Twitter after reading Rolling Stone label the former One Direction man, 28, the new King of Pop. He fumed: "There is no new King of Pop. You don’t own the title @RollingStone, and you didn’t earn it, my uncle did. Decades of dedication and sacrifice. The title has been retired."
