Jackson Pal Arnie Klein: Willing to Take Paternity Test...Just Not Yet

On the sliding scale of likely baby daddies for the Michael Jackson brood, it's safe to say Arnold Klein is a few notches above Macaulay Culkin.

Not that Klein plans on proving—or disproving, as the case may be—any time soon the unsinkable theories wrought by his admission that he once donated sperm.

Mark Vincent Kaplan, the attorney for Jackson's dermatologist and close pal, tells E! News that Klein is not exactly opposed to taking a paternity test to see if he's a match for Paris and Prince Michael, but doesn't have any plans to do so…unless asked by two people in particular.

Well, three if you count a judge.

"The court certainly would not order a DNA test after the death of the conclusively presumed biological parent," Kaplan said. "I think that if, at some point in time, the minor children reach their majority, which they will, that will be a decision I would assume they would make…they alone would make."

Don't shoot the messenger—or, since there's apparently some confusion on the matter, the dog.

A month after Shanna Moakler resigned in protest from her post as the Miss California pageant codirector, the former beauty queen tells E! News she's ready and willing to once again mentor the tiara-wearing masses and resume her pageant duties, should her services be so requested.

"If Donald Trump gives his blessing, I'll be back in a heartbeat," Moakler says.

Moakler, who groused about Carrie Prejean's failure to live up to her contract, was seemingly vindicated last week, when Trump reversed his earlier decision and agreed with state pageant director Keith Lewis to fire Prejean.

Neither Trump nor Lewis immediately returned calls seeking comment on Moakler's desire to return.

Meanwhile, Moakler says she is ready to recommit to the Miss Universe universe now that she believes its credibility has been restored, and she also praises Prejean's replacement, new Miss California Tami Farrell.

Says Moakler: "She actually shows up for work."
