At the movies - From the couch

A simple google search shows that he confirmed in a documentary that he slept with young boys.

“did michael jackson share his bed with young boys”

Yes, Michael Jackson openly admitted to sharing his bed with young boys, a practice he defended as non-sexual, calling it “sharing love” and often stating he slept on the floor while children used his bed. While he was acquitted of child molestation charges in 2005, this habit was a central point of scrutiny in multiple abuse allegations spanning his career

Then why wasn’t he put in jail.

At the end of the day I just enjoy his music

It’s interesting that Culkin and Feldman both said Jackson never did anything inappropriate (while Feldman said other adults definitely did).
It doesn’t prove he wasn’t…inappropriate with other children, but it’s something.

Edit: no interest in the movie, btw. The trailer doesn’t grab me. I know he was a great artist. If I wanted to see that, I’d just watch the real thing.

The MJ kids thing, has always struck me as very odd

Macauley Culkin has always maintained throughout the years that MJ never touched him at all

There is a conspiracy theory from some that he opened Neverland as a way to keep kids away from Epstein Island

In the end, who knows.Some swear that he touched them, some swear he didn’t.

I do think MJ was a guy that never really grew up- it was like he was a kid in an adults body

I do think Biopics about ultra famous people is very hard to pull off. Because the families rarely want to do an in depth look at the person as it could hurt the “brand” and cost them money or even open them up to lawsuits

I always try and separate the artist from the real life person. Though in some cases it’s almost impossible not too. Kevin Spacey being one where i just can’t separate it

Yep Bohemian Rhapsody copped the same criticisms because the movie didn’t deep dive into Freddie’s gay partying shenanigans.

The Jackson family were producers so too was Brian May and Roger Taylor for Bohemian Rhapsody they were never going to approve things in the movie that made them look bad

I like the Robbie Williams Biopic, not a fan of his at all but it certainly showed some things he wouldn’t have been proud of. You get used to the ape thing after about 15min. :face_with_tongue:

biopics are generally always ■■■■, cos no one/no estate is going to sign off the nitty gritty being shown

Rocketman was pretty open about Elton John’s homosexuality and drug/alcohol abuse.

Elvis was pretty good too

Hahahahajaha!!!

Cmon man.

Wouldn’t it have been more appropriate to report it to police? No, he built a place for kids to sleep in his bed.

If im thinking out loud, the victims of Epstein were female, and Jackson were male.

The court case and allegations didn’t start till 93 and the movie covers his career from the Jackson 5 up untill 1988 with Bad

Wouldn’t have made sense to include them

Apparently the Jackson family gave approval but due to legal reasons from the victims family they had to remove it from the film they shot a lot of it.

Reckon the second film will cover his court case/allegations up untill his death imo

I know its insane, but it’s just something i read on reddit. If you can find a more reliable news source than reddit, i would love it see it

Some may doubt Michael Jackson did anything sinister with young boys, but who amongst us is honestly convinced of the legitimacy of any of his supposed heterosexual relationships?

They seemed rather preformative to me.

Wut?

Im saying every time he got married it seemed like a PR stunt

What’s that got to do with the first paragraph of your post
