"King of Pop" Michael Jackson was selected as the "most foolish American" in a poll out yesterday, ahead of April Fool's Day.
Eighty per cent of those polled said Jackson - who has been in the media spotlight again since a British television documentary shed new light on his personal life - was the biggest fool in the country, according to public relations consultant Jeff Barge, who has the survey taken every year.
Jackson (44) drew foolish reviews for, among other things, dangling his baby son out a window in Germany to show him to fans last year.
Boxer Mike Tyson came in a foolish second.
