Oprah interview

Interview0 Comments

Winfrey interviews Jackson about the amusement park in his backyard, the creation of the moonwalk, and the amount of charities that he has donated to for disadvantaged children.

They can’t sit up and these beds, they are hospital beds, you push a button, you go up or you go down and they are able to watch. We have a magic show, we show the current films, there’s cartoons, anything you know, anything so they can escape to that world of magic that they don’t have a chance to experience, the world I was deprived of when I was little.
