Does anyone find it disturbing that this guy has a very young Beyoncé sitting on his lap!
Michael Jackson guides us round the original Jackson family home in Gary, Indiana in new footage
There's certainly no shortage of confidence as Jackson gives words of reassurance to a 19-year-old Beyonce, then emerging as a star in her own right. He even laughingly tells cameras he's glad that 'dirty pictures' have been removed from the bedroom he once shared with his brothers and fellow performers in the Jackson Five.

“The revelation of Michael Jackson and women friends comes as no shock to most of the residents of Los Olivos, the closest town to Neverland. There, among the townspeople, it was commonly known that their neighbor superstar was dating women. Michael and his female friends typically avoided public places, as was his modus operandi in general, but sometimes he was spotted with a woman companion, who was obviously a “date,” and the Michael Jackson sighting would be passed by word of mouth. Soon everyone would hear about it in this peaceful, scenic town in wine country with only 1,100 residents.”
Michael about breaking down and crying on stage:
"It's always real and I take that moment and I pray not to cry and I usually, you know, do, because everything goes back. To me from conception to us when we were little babies and children and now to see all the adulation and notoriety and it's just a work from God and it all goes through me real fast. It's a blessing. I just break down and I cry at that moment, but I try not to show it to the audience, but I can't help it.”
