The Lenghts MJ Would Go ...


Director, Kenny Ortega (whom directed This Is It), recently told reporters a story about how he once thought Michael Jackson had stood him up. The two were supposed to meet up at Universal Studios in Hollywood, to see Beowulf together.

"I don't know what I was thinking. I was looking for Michael Jackson to show up to meet me. I'd been with him many times before when he dressed up - he went to the theatre in New York as the Mata Hari's daughter once. You wouldn't believe some of the outfits that we saw him in. So I'm standing around and looking around. There were young tourists running up to me to get my autograph because they recognised me from High School Musical, and this old, old man in a wheelchair is getting closer and closer to me until I just went, 'You son of a gun!' It was Michael just laughing under his plastic face. I went over and wheeled this old man into the movie theatre - it was the only way he could get in and more importantly get out. If we could sneak him in, if people knew that he was somewhere it was almost impossible to get him out."

Such a cute story! Gotta love Michael and his antics.
