Anecdote: The extent of Michael Jackson's fame at its height, and his eagerness to exploit it is shown by an incident in 1984 when invited to a White House reception hosted by then President and First Lady Ronald and Nancy Reagan. Jackson had been assured that the only people there, besides the presidential couple, would be a few staff members' children. Aghast to find around 75 adults and no children, Jackson locked himself in an upstairs bathroom, refusing to emerge until assured that all non-essential adults had been replaced by a number of children.
Michael JacksonThe press has made up so much...God...awful, horrifying stories...it has made me realize the more often you hear a lie, I mean, you begin to believe it.
Michael JacksonThe Wizard Of Oz" has secrets that are just too much. Or "Peter Pan" โ the whole 'lost boys' thing is just incredible. Theyโre not childlike at all, theyโre really, really deep; you can rule your life by them. Or say 'child-like', because children are the most brilliant people of all, thatโs why they relate to those stories so well. Fairy-tales are wonderful.
