Is 31-year-old aspiring singer Brandon Howard the long lost son of Michael Jackson? Maybe, maybe not...

Earlier this week, TMZ reported that there's a "99.9% chance" that Howard is indeed Jackson's illegitimate child due to DNA evidence.

According to FilmOn.com rep Alki David, dental impressions were recently obtained from a Beverly Hills doctor at auction. Although over 30 tears old, the sample is full of DNA... and proves that Howard is the "Secret" offspring of the late pop legend.

Here's footage of the "positive DNA match" revelation:

Howard's mom is Miki Howard, a famous gospel songstress who was once friends with the former Jackson 5 crooner. Back in 1982, she went by the name "Billy" - interesting...

(Lyrics: "Billie Jean's not my lover / The kid is not my son").

Apparently, Howard wants nothing to do with all of the media attention:

But do fans really believe that?

Because the infamous gossip webloid reveals that the DNA documents look totally BOGUS. They were supposedly obtained from the "DNA Lab" in Ireland - that place allegedly doesn't exist. As TMZ puts it:

Skeptical, we investigated - a simple Google image search of "DNA results" turns up a bunch of sample docs with the same exact easily-stealable format as the one we got... We then Google image searched "DNA logo" and the first result... literally ... was the same DNA pic used in the "DNA Lab" logo.

Sounds sort of fishy... is Howard simply searching for his 15-minutes of fame? Here are what some Twitter skeptics are saying:

@ZrshMikeJackson: "If Brandon Howard is Michael's son, I'm Beyonce."

@ANeverlandDream: "The Brandon Howard DNA test was PROVEN to be a FAKE,They had Brandons DNA but they didn't have Michael's, see how easily fooled some can be?"

‏@ANeverlandDream: "Brandon Howard isn't Michael's son. End of story! And for those that believe in that tabloid BS, i wonder what other FALSE bs you believe."

@NFLGoodwitch: "If Brandon Howard truly is the sonof MJ and Miki Howard... I expect him to have some damn talent cos... Wow."

@MrJeromeTrammel: "So @MikiHowardlive's Son Brandon Howard Is Claiming To Be @MichaelJackson's Son? Why Won't They Let MJ Just Rest In Peace?"
