Randy Jackson is denying his brother Michael -- you may have heard of him, the King of Pop, etc. -- ordered bodyguards to shoot Randy.

He ordered them to stab him.

No, that's not true either

A story broke Tuesday that Michael Jackson's former bodyguard Matt Fiddes told U.K. publication the Sun that in 2005 Jackson, surrounded by Nation of Islam bodyguards, became so paranoid that he ordered his brother shot.

Randy Jackson's spokesman told TMZ the allegations "couldn't be further from the truth ... it's absolutely absurd."

Fiddes told the Sun that Michael was being hounded by his family to go on a Jacksons reunion tour. He said Randy showed up at his house and tried to push his way in, prompting Michael -- whom Fiddes said was on drugs at the time -- to order bodyguards to shoot Randy.

Randy's rep says the Jackson family is choosing to ignore Matt, rather than engage him in a legal battle, because "it's a non-issue."

Indeed, Fiddes is full of juicy stories that no one else corroborates. He also recently told the Sun that Michael Jackson had a romance with Whitney Houston.
