Pop superstar Michael Jackson is reportedly in discussions to write his memoirs.The Thriller hitmaker is said to be in talks with several publishing giants in New York to land a deal which will see him record his life story.A source tells Scottish newspaper the Daily Record, "Despite all that's known about Michael, he is still one of our most intriguing celebrities and if he's truly candid and reveals some good secrets, his memoirs could easily be a huge bestseller."Meanwhile in other news concerning the star animal rights activists are begging Michael Jackson to rescue the giraffes that used to roam on his Neverland Ranch from a hellish new home in Arizona.People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) bosses claim four giraffes, which once belonged to Jacko, have been confined in cramped pens at an unlicensed facility in Arizona for over a year - and they're hoping a plea to the pop superstar will prompt him to take action.The Peta powers have written to the King of Pop and asked him to intervene on the animals' behalf.A spokesman tells Wenn, "When Jackson faced recent financial troubles, the giraffes were sold to a couple in Page, Arizona, who were reportedly planning to set up a zoo."More than a year later, the giraffes are still confined to pens that allegedly each measure approximately 15 feet by 15 feet, and the animals reportedly have not been receiving adequate veterinary or husbandry care.

"If Michael could see the giraffes' plight for himself, I'm sure he'd agree that it's bad - really, really bad. The giraffes may be out of Michael's life, but he has a responsibility to see that they don't suffer."
