The controversial life of Michael Jackson<\/a> once again is under the spotlight due to his upcoming biopic<\/a>, Michael, and more stories about the iconic singer are coming out, including one notable incident involving a young Hollywood<\/a> star, Wonderwall.com<\/a> can reveal.<\/p>\n

According to one of Jackson\u2019s former colleagues, British journalist Jonathan Margolis<\/a>, Jackson\u2019s apparent innocence was on display during one night at the Lanesborough Hotel in London.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026. Late one night, there was a knock on the huge double doors. I answered it to see a young male Hollywood star half Michael\u2019s age, then 42,\u201d Margolis claimed. \u201cI felt I was now free to get the Tube home, so I left the two of them tucked up in the enormous bed, both studiously reading comics \u2013 and at least two metres horizontally apart.\u201d<\/p>\n

Margolis, who spent plenty of time with the King of Pop, opened up about many moments with Jackson, especially the side his adoring fans never got to see.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother time, sat next to him at a Thanksgiving dinner, we got to talking about newspaper coverage of him,\u201d the journalist recalled. \u201c\u2018What I always wanted to know,\u2019 he said, \u2018is why do they call me Wacko Jacko? I just don\u2019t get it.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was a tricky one to answer. I swerved it, saying it\u2019s down to page design; on a tabloid page in large type, I said, \u2018wacko\u201d happens to be the same length as \u2018Jacko.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Michael Jackson Was \u2018Asexual\u2019?

Jackson, who died in 2009<\/a>, received brutally negative coverage while alive, and even more so while dead, as many have come forward to accuse the Bad singer of abuse.<\/p>\n

Margolis revealed: \u201cMy position has always been that I rather liked Jackson and am surprised and saddened by the allegations, as I thought he was, if anything, asexual \u2013 any adult side to him crushed by his celebrity from the age of five and his overbearing father.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf what I witnessed was for real \u2013 a big if, I grant \u2013 his childlike persona, which is the basis of the case for his defense, could have been genuine.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cI suspect the final verdict of history will be that Jackson was desperately troubled and, as a result, his behavior was unacceptable and unchecked.\u201d<\/p>\n

In February, four adult siblings<\/a> filed a suit against Jackson\u2019s estate and his companies, claiming the hitmaker abused them as children and that they were victims of trafficking.<\/p>\n

Four Adult Siblings Accuse Michael Jackson Of Abuse

Jackson is accused of being \u201ca serial child predator who, over the course of more than a decade, drugged and assaulted each of the Plaintiffs, beginning when some of them were as young as seven or eight,\u201d the lawsuit claims.<\/p>\n

The siblings claim they met Jackson via their father, who worked at a luxury hotel the Beat It hitmaker frequented. Named in the suit were The Michael Jackson Co. and various individuals associated with the late King of Pop\u2019s estate, trust, and production companies.<\/p>\n

According to the lawsuit, Jackson won the family\u2019s trust with gifts and financial support before grooming them by isolating them from other adults. The siblings were allegedly plied with alcohol and drugs and abused one by one over a prolonged period.<\/p>\n

Marty Singer, who represents Jackson\u2019s estate, labeled the lawsuit a \u201cdesperate money grab\u201d and \u201ctransparent forum-shopping tactic in their scheme to obtain hundreds of millions of dollars from Michael\u2019s estate and companies.\u201d<\/p>\n

Biopic Drama

While it is unclear if Jackson\u2019s biopic will include abuse allegations against him, his sister, Janet<\/a>, is said to have been left sick after watching the film at a private screening in Los Angeles<\/a> for about 60 family members.<\/p>\n

A source claimed, \u201cAs they stood up, cheering the movie, Janet began criticizing<\/a> it. She was like, \u2018No! This is horrible. They are doing a disservice.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Jackson\u2019s 28-year-old daughter, Paris<\/a>, has also been clear with her disgust, previously raging, \u201cI just prefer honesty over sales and monetary gain.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The controversial life of Michael Jackson once again is under the spotlight due to his upcoming biopic, Michael,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":573265,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[88,1506,97339,3031,27355,216,40555],"class_list":{"0":"post-573264","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-hollywood","10":"tag-janet-jackson","11":"tag-los-angeles","12":"tag-michael-jackson","13":"tag-music","14":"tag-paris-jackson"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/573264","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=573264"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/573264\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/573265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=573264"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=573264"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=573264"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
