You're forgetting Ashley Tisdale.

He is certainly the icing on that cake. It was inspired to include him.

What do you call the inner sides of that "void" not including the tongue and teeth?

Spears was a pre-teen idol. Michael was way beyond that. Spears was equal to David Cassidy, just with an alleged intact cherry.

Palate? Cheek?

a void has no inner sides. is this a trick question?

do you mean the outer walls that define the mouth? I won't trouble you with the latin formal names, but essentially you speak of the mucous membranes of the cheeks and palate, or the roof.

How do you have 3 kids, all those assets and all that debt and not have a will? And if that isn't enough, how do you have a dad like Joe Jackson and not want to make sure he doesn't have any legal rights to your kids and your stuff?

I suppose they could put a lot more techincal jargon in the jury charge but if you say "mouth" everyone is gonna known what you mean.

"cheek" is technical jargon in Minnesota? no wonder your bridges fall in.

I think cheek would be considered the outside unless you said "inner cheek." and if you are going to parse all all the different surfaces you have to add hard palate, soft palate, uvula. You'd put that in a jury charge? Mouth works just fine.

Sometimes, Hank touches the void.

I had heard that he has at least 2. But why would it surprise you that someone who spent so much effort into escaping reality would not have a will?

He managed reality enough to get the mom of the oldest 2 to sign away her parental rights. You'd think a will would be a natural follow-up.

I wonder if it is too late for the kids to escape being completely and utterly fucked up.

I also wonder how long it will take for the biological mother of #3 to surface. (Or the actual biological father of any of them.)

ETA: TMZ (that noted legal publication) reports there is a will. I hadn't heard there were 2 wills.

Why would any donors have any sort of claim? Most states and then parents through contractural language divest donors of any parental rights at all. For example, Texas Family Code Sec. 160.702. PARENTAL STATUS OF DONOR. "A donor is not a parent of a child conceived by means of assisted reproduction."
