Michael Jackson has today denied claims he fathered a set of twins.

Sholeh Bocchelli, 36, filed a suit against the singer on Monday, claiming that Jackson had fathered the two boys by invitro fertilisation and hasn't let her see them since they were born last year.

She alleged: "He initially was calling every day, to advise me about their conditions, but the calls stopped after New Year's. I need immediate access to my children."

In a statement issued today, Jackson insisted: "There is no truth to this accusation."
