Los Angeles, Nov 26: Michael Jackson donned a black dress and disguised himself as an old lady to escape hordes of press besieging a Las Vegas hotel where he holed up after his arrest, a report said. The "king of pop," wore a long black dress, veil and hat on Thursday to flee the luxurious green valley ranch following his arrest on child molestation charges, the Las Vegas Review-Journal said Monday.
The paper quoted "spies" as saying that immediately after an extraordinary pursuit of his convoy to the hotel by media helicopters, Jackson sneaked out of the resort and went to the Las Vegas Country Club.
He spent two days in a penthouse suite there before leaving in pre-dawn darkness in the same costume on Saturday. The paper's gossip column said it was unknown where he went next.
Press have been desperately trying to find Jackson, who turned himself in for arrest on multiple child molestation charges in the California town of Santa Barbara earlier Thursday, ever since.
