Welcome back to the Our MJ MEMOIRS - Lost Tape Series - Volume 5 Sometime in the 80's Michael Jackson sat down with an unknown biographer to record his memoirs for his first autobiography, Moonwalk: A Memoir Key talking points in Volume 5: Michael begins by commenting on meeting celebrities, like Magic Johnson, backstage after his show, saying that he's only facinated by other celebrities if he respects their talent. He mentions meeting old child actors Spanky McFarlane and Freddie Bartholomew and the impact they had on him. Michael credits them as his inspo - he calls them up to express his appreciation for their work When asked by the Interviewer about him leaving his brothers behind in terms of his fame and fortune, Michael says he does think about their future. “I think about it but I don’t think they think about it hard enough. “It takes a talent, but some people are lazy too and don’t want to develop anything “And some people don’t have insight, they don't know how to make a thing better. They just can’t see it. They’ll keep working with secondary people and don’t understand why things aren’t happening the way they should. And the answer is right in front of their face.” MJ talks about wanting his future kids to go into showbiz “If I had a son or daughter I would say by all means step right in – be my guest If you wanna do it, do it. To me, nothing more important than making people happy. To give people pleasure To me that’s wonderful .” I don’t understand why some celebrities say ‘I would never let my daughter go into it – that’s because they have been hurt/’ When asked if MJ has a guardian angel, or how he gets through the trials of life MJ says: The Bible has been a great help. I think about things. You know when you shouldn’t do something People are just weak that’s the problem MJ talks about mum Katherine and how she was kindhearted and relays story of helping an injured man in Indiana 0602 “It’s the way she is. I remember in Gary. Early in the morning “This man was bleeding real bad. You could follow the trail of blood. Mother let this stranger in and gave him something to eat and sent him off. I would’ve been too afraid to do that. I would say that’s pretty brave. I remember we woke up and saw the trail of blood.” MJ says he doesn’t like Katherine talking about him in public 0712 “She disappointed me on this tour. She did an interview. She didn’t know that I didn’t want her to talk. “I don’t like her to talk. It’s none of those people’s business. I don’t really want people to know things. That’s why this is very delicate for me – how you do this.” MJ says he met Paul McCartney as his daughter Heather was interested in him. He says Paul wrote Girlfriend for him and then Quincy later suggested they record it. 1209 “His daughter Heather. The girls would giggle. We talked on the phone Wings on America tour and he had a party “You know I wrote you a song. Talks about a few lines about Girlfriend “I called him in London and let’s write some hits. I got some great songs already. “I will probably produce him” GET YOUR COPY of MOONWALK HERE: #michaeljackson #michaeljacksonmoonwalk #saysaysay #rareinterview #mjmemoir #michaeljacksonlegacy #paulmccartney #entertainment .
