Please pay attention to me
I watched that 20/20 interview last night with Corey Feldman. He is pathetic. He talked about how he was friends with Michael Jackson all through the '80s, then had a falling out with him in 2001. He said that he has defended MJ against charges of child molestation in the past, but now he feels the need to step forward. Indeed, he has been subpoenaed to testify against MJ in his child molestation trial -- Feldman gave this interview right before the court order shut him up. How conveeenient.
In the interview, Feldman told that paragon of journalistic integrity Martin Bashir that he remembers being 13 or 14 and MJ showing him a book of naked people who had venereal disease in their genitalia. Now that he has a son, if someone showed his teenage kid pictures like that, "I'd kick his ass," he said, slowly and deliberately. "So do you think Michael could be a pe-dophile?" Bashir asked in his thick British accent. Feldman mugged for the camera, then said, "He could be." Slowly and deliberately. He then emphatically stressed that MJ had never molested or harmed him in any way. So why the fuck are you giving an interview, you wingnut? Could it be that no one's seen hide nor hair of you in about 10 years (except for those loverly straight-to-video releases and The Surreal Life), and you want some exposure?
After I finished watching, I was flipping around and landed on E!'s "The Soup." The host mentioned the Corey Feldman interview and that MJ had shown Feldman the VD pictures, then said something to the effect of, "If you weren't shooting heroin and banging every starlet in Hollywood, Corey, maybe you wouldn't need such lessons." Ha ha ha.
The whole damn "interview" felt exploitative and pointless. Now, is MJ innocent? Who knows? But Corey Feldman, shame on you. Go crawl back under the rock from which you came.
Here's more on this disturbing interview.
