Jacko: I sleep with boys By MIKE DARVILL
MICHAEL Jackson admitted last night he sleeps with boys.The singer, 44, said in a TV interview: “I have slept in bed with many children ... it’s what the whole world should do.”Jackson also claimed children LIKE to be touched and said he would KILL himself if he could not be close to them.The shocking confessions to journalist Martin Bashir are sure to further damage the star — previously tarnished by child sex allegations.He admitted on ITV1’s Living With Michael Jackson that he had recently encouraged a 12-year-old cancer sufferer to sleep in his bedroom.Jacko insisted there was NO sex during the sleepover at his Neverland ranch in California.
He said of his feelings for children: “I think what they get from me I get from them. “And man, I just love being around that all the time. Why can’t you share your bed? The most loving thing to do is share your bed with someone.”His sensational TV documentary was branded “the longest suicide note in history” by a TV executive last night.The pop superstar’s career looked to be over after his stunning confession.The admissions follow Jackson causing outrage just three months ago when he dangled his son Prince Michael II from a hotel balcony.The new revelations — and a series of other bizarre antics during interviews with reporter Martin Bashir — come 10 years after Jacko was accused of sexually molesting 13-year-old Jordan Chandler at his ranch.
Officials in California who probed the sex scandal which erupted around Jackson in 1993 could take action following his new statements.Last night’s programme is due to be screened in America on Friday. In the programme Jacko told how he:SHARED his bedroom with a 12-year-old cancer sufferer called Gavin at Neverland, his 3,000-acre ranch.CLAIMED sleeping with children was “very right, very loving, very charming, very sweet.”
SAID he would KILL himself if he could not be close to children.TOLD Bashir he did not want to be buried, saying: “I would like to live forever.”
Jackson claimed his young friend Gavin asked to sleep in the singer’s bedroom, to which the star said: “Look if you love me you’ll sleep on the bed.”He claimed on that occasion he slept on the floor.But Jackson said: “Why can’t you share your bed? The most loving thing to do is to share your bed with someone.”He even claimed children liked to be touched. He went on: “I have slept in a bed with many children.“I slept in a bed with all of them when Macaulay Culkin was little, Kieran Culkin would sleep on this side, Macaulay Culkin was on this side, his sisters in there.“We all would just jam in the bed, you know? It’s very right. It’s very loving, that’s what the world needs now, more love.”
But Jackson revealed he is not comfortable with the idea of sex with ADULTS.Asked about actress Tatum O’Neal trying to seduce him, Jackson said: “I was frightened. I was afraid. I didn’t think I was ready for that.”Jacko disclosed for the first time how his new baby, Prince Michael II, was conceived by a surrogate mother he has never met.The world knew almost nothing of the little boy’s existence until the self-styled King of Pop’s hotel balcony stunt.But the singer chose to share details of his birth with millions in the two-hour special. He admitted: “I used a surrogate mother and my own sperm cells. She doesn’t know me and I don’t know her.”
Asked how he selected her, Jackson replied: “It didn’t matter to me as long as she was healthy.“I didn’t care what race she was as long as she was healthy and her vision was good.“And her intellect — I wanted to know how intelligent she is.”Jackson refers to the baby as Blanket. He revealed: “It’s an expression I use with my family and my employees. “I say ‘you should blanket me’ or ‘you should blanket her’, meaning like a blanket is a blessing. It’s a way of showing love and caring,”Jackson allowed cameras to film baby Blanket, his daughter Paris and other son Prince Michael I.But he insisted all the children had their faces covered at all times because the star is so paranoid about the youngsters being recognised.In one memorable image from the documentary, Jackson cradled the baby as he fed him his bottle through the veil.The little boy’s head was shrouded in a green scarf and he wailed as Jackson jigged him on his knee and cooed: “I love you, Blanket.“I love my children very much. I don’t want him to cry.”The singer strongly denied that he had endangered the baby’s life by dangling him from the fourth-floor balcony of his Berlin hotel room last November.He said: “That’s totally ignorant. I would never do that to my children, or any child.“Why would I try to kill my son? Come on, that’s stupid. And why would I put a scarf over the baby’s face if I was trying to throw him off a balcony.“We were waving to thousands of fans down below and they were chanting they wanted to see my child, so I was kind enough to let them see.“They got the full experience and he enjoyed it.”The child appeared to be fair-skinned but Jackson said the mother was black.Jacko seemed a little confused as he had told earlier in the documentary how he had been in a relationship with the mother when the baby was conceived, but later he told the surrogacy story.
Jackson’s other children Paris, four, and Prince Michael I, who is nearly six, have no contact with their mother — Jackson’s former dermatology nurse Debbie Rowe.Jackson confirmed that they were his biological children and said Rowe had given them to him “as a present”, describing it as “a lovely gesture”.The children appear unaware of their mother’s existence — Prince told Bashir he did not have a mummy.And Jacko claimed: “She can’t handle it — she’d prefer them to be with me than with her. She did it for me. She said ‘You need to be a daddy’.” He said the children were perfectly happy without a mother.
And he added: “They have enough women in their lives. Women are everywhere in my house, they’re with them all day long.”Jacko said he was present at the birth of both Prince and Paris - and told how he fled the hospital with Paris moments after she was born.“She came out the wrong way and she was being kind of choked by the umbilical cord,” he recalled.“So I was kind of worried and I was so anxious to get her home that after cutting the cord.“I hate to say this — I snatched her and just went home with all the placenta and everything all over her. I got her in a towel and ran.”Jackson said he fled because he was terrified that the doctors would give him some bad news about her.But mystifyingly he said they had given him the all-clear to take the baby away.He also claimed Rowe had given her blessing for him to take the child away even though she had not spent any time with the baby at all.The star revealed he had been so desperate for a child that he wandered around his Neverland ranch carrying baby dolls.
And he revealed he intends to father more children by adopting a boy and a girl from each continent in the world.Jackson said: “It’s all in how you shape and sculpt and mould their world.”Paris and Prince seemed to play happily like any other children and seemed at ease chatting to strangers. But Jackson said they could never enjoy a normal life because they were not allowed to go to school with other children.He said it was impossible because they would be plagued by paparazzi and other pupils would be jealous of them.Elsewhere in the documentary, Bashir repeatedly quizzes the star about his cosmetic surgery.But the singer flatly denied having had any alterations to his face other than two operations on his nose because “it helped me breathe better so I can hit higher notes”.He dismissed the rest as “garbage” and insisted: “I am telling you the honest truth. I didn’t do anything to my face.”Jackson attributed his drastically changed appearance as coming from Heaven.He said: “Well, you gotta ask God that. That has nothing to do with me. I have had no plastic surgery on my face, just the nose.” Jackson loves shopping and even took Martin Bashir on a trip.He told of a £3.6million spree and said: “I love seeing how people make things. I love craftsmanship, what people can do with their hands and their imagination.” He also showed the interviewer how to do his famous moonwalking dance but suddenly became coy.
Jackson said: “Oh boy, I am shy. You’re putting me on the spot now. People will discover that I am really shy, I’m embarrassed.”The troubled singer had a host of opinions on other subjects.He said: “I’m Peter Pan in my heart. He represents youth, childhood, never growing up, magic, flying.”He also revealed he likes to play childish games and gets a thrill out of climbing trees.He revealed: “I love climbing trees, it’s my favourite thing — having water balloon fights and climbing trees.”And he is very proud of his famous ranch which boasts fairground rides and wild animals and costs millions to run.He said: “I like the ferris wheel — it’s soothing. It’s comfortable and makes you wish and dream.”Jackson also talked about what he likes to get up to when he visits his Las Vegas suite.He revealed said: “When I’m bored I ride in the hallways of the hotel in this disabled wheelchair. I cruise the hallways late at night sometimes.”Jackson has not yet seen the documentary which will be screened in the US later this week.

Apparently, the interview has been brought by abc and will be shown on friday, they paid $5.75 million for it.
Bashing Bashir
Jacko says he feels ''betrayed'' by documentary. Even ex-wife Debbie Rowe thinks the lengthy interview is a smear by Gary Susman
Michael Jackson says he is ''devastated and feels utterly betrayed'' by the British documentary about him that aired this week in the United Kingdom and airs Thursday on ABC's ''20/20.'' In a statement, Jackson's representatives said he considers ''Living With Michael Jackson,'' for which reporter Martin Bashir followed the singer around for eight months and interviewed him several times on camera, ''a gross distortion of the truth and a tawdry attempt to misrepresent his life and his abilities as a father.''
The statement says Jackson granted Bashir access because of the reputation he'd earned with a landmark interview with Princess Diana in 1995. ''Martin Bashir persuaded me to trust him that his would be an honest and fair portrayal of my life and told me that he was 'the man that turned Diana's life around,' the statement quotes Jackson as saying.'' But he says Bashir invaded his children's privacy by filming them without his permission, and that the finished film was ''a salacious ratings chaser'' that misleads viewers about Jackson's behavior with children.
''Michael feels deeply angry that the program could have led viewers to conclude that he abuses children in any way,'' the statement reads. In the interview, Jackson tells Bashir that kids frequently share his bed for milk-and-cookies sleepovers at Neverland Ranch. But the statement says, ''Michael Jackson has never, and would never, treat a child inappropriately or expose them to any harm and totally refutes any suggestions to the contrary. Michael would never betray the trust that a child, or their parents, might place in him.''
Jackson's representatives even supplied a comment from Debbie Rowe, his seldom-heard-from ex-wife and mother of his two older children, who say in the documentary that they never see their mother. The statement quotes her as saying, ''It breaks my heart that anyone could truly believe that Michael would do anything to harm or endanger our children: they are the most important thing in his life.''

I bet MJ is a member of NAMBLA...
[random segue]
Has South Park ever done anything alluding to MJ? I don't watch enough to know, but I bet it would be funny. They did an episode about NAMBLA recently... |

I watched the interview last night in disbelief. I mean this guy is fucking CRAZY. Did you see how he acted when feeding Prince Michael II? I cannot believe how uneasy that made me feel. Seriously, they need to strap this guy into a straight jacket with a sequined crown on the back and keep him away from children. Did anyone notice how Gavin was holding his hand and resting his head on Michael's shoulder? Fucking twisted. |

Talk about someone with mental problems,whoa! So sad really.
I never cared for him as an adult less so when he bought some of the Beatles copyrights and wouldn't sell any back to Paul McCartney. |
