It is interesting to know that the Queen of Pop once showed interest in the King of Pop to the extent she tried to seduce him, and that worked out perfectly fine as Michael Jackson was caught off guard. Madonna let the cat out about her fling with the late singer during a 2016 discussion with James Corden.
In the segment of Corden’s Carpool Karaoke, Madonna was questioned about her affiliation with Michael Jackson and if it ever evolved into anything sexual. The 66-year-old’s responded claiming that, “Baby, I’ve been around,” while offering more insight into her romantic relationship with Jackson.
Fans react to Madonna’s claims about Michael Jackson
During Jackson’s lifetime, he had relationships with so many celebrities and even tied the knot with Priscilla Presley’s daughter, the late Lisa Marie, but many of his fans keep wondering what kind of relationship he shared with Madonna. The duo was spotted holding hands at the 1991 Academy Awards and this fueled further rumors, but none of the two music icons reacted to it.
Madonna’s confession on the Carpool Karaoke segment was the first time either of the parties publicly acknowledged their involvement with one another, and she didn’t spare any details. Madonna attested to Jackson’s shy nature as she confirmed, “I did if you wanna know the truth,” referring to the fact that she made the first move on him.
Madonna shared details on how she landed Michael Jackson
It seems Madonna had been longing to let out the secret as she didn’t hold back any information. She explained that she had a trick up her sleeve, and it played out well for her as Jackson fell for it. “I did get him to loosen up with a glass of Chardonnay,” Madonna shared. “And it did. It worked wonders.” The duo had their first sexual tension and Madonna didn’t spare Jackson’s innocence as she claimed that he was a “willing accomplice.”
Madonna concluded that she hasn’t “had the chance to talk about it,” as “no one ever” questioned her about it until her discussion with James Corden.
