Michael Jackson Rare Interview February 25 1983

Watch better quality here:
• ET`s first interwiev w...
I have always wanted to see this interview. The interview had taken place on February 25 1983, by Entertainment Tonight. 26 years before his
death. The video Thriller or Beat It had not been created yet; Michael had never moonwalked on stage at the Motown 25 anniversary show. The album Thriller had been out 3 months. On that day 2/25/83 Michael was presented double Platinum awards at a CBS Records press conference. The awards were presented to him by Jane Fonda..

[@rekunta]

For such a soft spoken guy, he turned into a beast while performing. He was an animal onstage.

[@Angel28Blue]

oh yeah! He speaks like an angel and performing like a beast!!

[@thevillageyid]

I was thinking the exact the same thing

[@ohsnapitspat6270]

That's The King Of Pop for you (:

[@Hungrycaitwolf]

Just goes to show - soft guys, more to what we see.

[@thespectrumclub]

IKR!!!

[@EdieSexwitch]

Michael had one of the most beautiful smiles I've ever seen. He always had it even when he was young, his smile could light up the universe.

[@mxxz3900]

try to google the worlds beautiful smile

[@grandma.p]

+EdieSexwitch Yes, beautiful eyes and a wonderful smile. The vitilago doesn't matter because like you said, he lights up the universe and has such a kind face.

[@naomihallett748]

Fff

[@joycec3598]

yes. i love his smile and giggling.. it makes me smile.

[@javg4220]

Lil peep smile is also one of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen

[@mosimac8464]

"Where do you think the gift came from''? Michael: ''GOD'' with no hesitation I love it

[@melodyrobles6509]

read this right when he said it. Goosebumps for that alone.

[@thelifeofpblo2705]

Mosima Chokoe but the awkward pause from the interviewer 😂

[@theraiden1018]

yeah wtf was that about?

[@nomibe2911]

Mosima Chokoe Before reading your comment I wrote the same thing. That struck me how fast he said God.

[@nissyruth776]

Mosima Chokoe I loved ur comment......❤ ❤ ❤

[@iSquishMoths]

One thing this man was, was humble. Zero arrogance even when he was top of the world.

[@spesfloret]

Oh Yes. MJ was always very down to earth about it, which made him even more Great "as a whole": a sweetheart, humble and extremely talented person.

[@iSquishMoths]

spesfloret -- love that trait. He was always even reluctant to admit his talent was his own doing and rendered it Gods work. Very admirable, cobain had the same demeanour; even elvis. All 3 I just mentioned all died before their time due to drug habits ... Very important message to learn there about fame and money -- doesn't mean jack shit seemingly.

[@spesfloret]

I agree. Besides, nothing is more important (not even talent) than one's Essence/Soul, who you are (decide to be) as a human being; and in that essential highly relevant aspect, a person who genuinely cultive humbleness and is thankful (besides compassionate and generous as MJ was), is a true BEAUTIFUL being.

[@spesfloret]

Annika Lewis -- That too, MJ was always SO hot, essentially sensual and magnetic.

[@alyssajones4368]

Sitting like a boss at the beginning.

[@mohammadsufian7890]

Because he is actually the ultimate boss of Music

[@alyssajones4368]

True dat.

[@Blondie-ot1lu]

I love his facial structure, he honestly is one of the most handsome man I've ever seen!

[@FlyyGirl1000]

& even tho he was humble, he also knew that he was the shit 😏🤴🏾

[@yankees3444]

Most humble child molester 😂😂😂

[@SwaggerLikeUz]

That will never happen again, MJ was a once in a lifetime talent. He took music to another universe musically, artistically, creatively, etc. He took dancing to another peak, and He took music videos to a whole new plateau. After MJ passed, seriously I never seen no world figure, leader, or person, get that kind of send off from the world. RIP to the greatest! Michael Jackson thank u

[@lampshade8818]

Absolutely. I can't stand anyone putting him down. He was completely harmless and devoted to his craft, plus helping others. He also obviously had the most enormous talent that was singular- no one else EVER could or ever will even touch that.

[@lillianwalton8562]

[@mraaron81]

He was abused, mentally, physically, and emotionally, as a child. I'm sure, he grew up, hating himself and the way he looked. The one thing I did, and still do admire about MJ, is his spirit. Say what you want about him. But, he had a peaceful/loving aura. He loved everyone. No matter, what their race was. And that's very hard to do. But that definitely something, I've tried to pattern.

[@mraaron81]

That's*

[@zoltamapps]

Aaron Smith FUCK yah, I agreee 🤘💙

[@TheDantheman12121]

Yeah he had the innocence of a child and loved to be around them but the media cannot see something like that for what it is and have to make it so he seems weird when really it was all love.

[@TheDantheman12121]

Lucy Coco how is he a racist?

[@decaffeinatedafrican5997]

yep. i remember hearing that michael jackson's father made fun of jackson when he had pimples on his face. he couldn't look himself in the mirror and he would often cry in the dark while he splashed water on his face. and of course he also got beaten by his father, etc. because he was an entertainer for pretty much his whole life had no childhood whatsoever. he wasn't a very social person either because he literally entertained for his whole life and couldn't hangout with anybody his age. which was why people called him "weird" because he didn't know how people would react to his behaviour i guess. in summary/retrospect, however, michael lived a really sad and bizarre life. at the end of the day it must feel satisfying earning the greatest entertainer to ever live rank lol.

[@DE4ever1000]

Michael was a musical genius

[@theresat.5936]

He was so much more.

[@DE4ever1000]

***** To each their own :)

[@taniamora7711]

+Bernard Dennis why are you even here if your going to say that??

[@experienceetymology]

+Tania Mora I hate when people just comment to say negative things

[@maggiemconnor]

indeed he truly was.

[@tyleetophbrown]

He had a beautiful smile, when he smiled I smiled

[@xxladybug94]

Damn he was so Handsome!!!

[@arimbisimawang1569]

He has soft voice😣😍

[@romanigypsy7219]

I agree this is when he only had one nose job. He was perfect here he was good looking he didn't need to do nothing to his face

[@teresarichards9255]

Romani Gypsy Your so right he was oh so handsome no more surgery was ever needed ,sadly he didn't seem to be happy with his looks ,when you compare his looks here and then go to how he looked towards the end ,it doesn't look to be the same person which is really sad :(

[@romanigypsy7219]

+Teresa Richards exactly I always thought people were way too hard hard on the Jackson family making it seem like they had so many sergeries so NOT true just look at their mum an dad when they were young even now latoya always was lighter one even when u see pics from 70s Janet only had a nose job but that it I wish they give that family a break

[@teresarichards9255]

Romani Gypsy So agree they should give our lovely Michael a break and consider how his children must be feeling now ,they must miss there daddy every day he spent so much time with them .

[@xabun]

24 years old and talkin about continuing what he does and breakin records ... holy shit .. how can somebody in that age predict that he is indeed going to not only break almost every record out there in music .. but also make history and become a legend just 10 years later ... that dude was definately a gift from god .. and his talent was not from this earth..

[@1969madame]

xabun I agree. It's inexplicable. It's almost as if he came from some alternate universe. (don't mean this as a negative) He is outrageously talented in so many areas: singer, dancer, songwriter, actor, humanitarian, visionary, artist (his art work is beautiful). How could one person be so gifted in so many areas? It is truly mind boggling. God surely smiled on him. I have loved this man for over 30 years and will love him forever. RIP MJ

[@ttsing]

From this point onwards he kinda couldn't sell more than he did here though

[@KUCHYRock]

Well, he was actually at his peak during this time. None of the following records was as big as Thriller

[@user-kq5bc7tq3r]

He was a prophet The deeper you learn about him the more you get it

[@abcdef-ve7ug]

Omg! That little joke about his age! 😂😂 He's so cute😍😍

[@drazulao]

His beauty is overwhelming.

[@raquelrojas8757]

Can he be any more attractive? Damn he is so fine.

[@drazulao]

No, he can't! He's perfect in every possible way :-D

[@reinemazidath5466]

Yes !Bad era .

[@hobiismysunshine1918]

+Leila Békélé this is not bad era its thriller era

[@reinemazidath5466]

I Know it's Thrtiller era , i mean he was even more attractive during the Bad era .

[@kittycats217]

ShadowDemon1992 why do people always assume that if someone finds Bad era more attractive it's because of skin tone? As if it had nothing to do with the buckles and leather, this new confidence that he finds, the fact that Bad era was when he started the whole pelvic thrusting, crotch grab, gyrating hips etc which would obviously attract more attention. You shouldn't assume that people finding him attractive during that time period automatically has to do with the lightening of his skin.

[@alyssajones4368]

Remove those shades so we can see those pretty eyes of yours baby.

[@mohammadsufian7890]

But he's too shy to take his glasses off lol

[@alyssajones4368]

+Mohammad Sufian LOL I know. That's what makes him even MORE cute.

[@mohammadsufian7890]

+Alyssa Jones Do u miss him??

[@alliyahdabo7615]

He is so humble

[@ohsnapitspat6270]

Always and forever :)

[@ohsnapitspat6270]

He always appreciated the important things he wasn't materialistic.

[@_S.H_]

1:33 "Where do you the gift came from?" Michael immediately responds without second thought: God God bless you and may your soul eternally rest in peace.

[@poultrykid]

He knew he was going to became a legend

[@HASSANJI_made_in_AMERICA]

YOUR VERY ACCURATE.

[@chrischanflushed2467]

[@jesschamp7132]

Isn't he the most gorgeous man you have ever seen? With the voice of an Angel he was so cute and shy back in the Thriller era this was right around the time he spun out into the stratosphere and never came down. I believe he was dropped on this planet to show everyone how to do what he did and he did it better than anyone. Its been almost 6 years since he left us but I know his legacy will live on for generations to come.

[@drazulao]

Jess Champ Yes, he is. The most beautiful, charming man ever. He's like a prince from a fairy tale.

[@dominiquesperspective]

[@only1kristen]

Du'ulkrinvol Michael's skin color changed, not his race. he was proud to be black and he stated that many times. Learn something about him before you just say anything.

[@only1kristen]

[@andreingram9905]

Kristen Naidu love you michael jackson

[@lauriesolomon2491]

I don't know how anybody with a brain could think that Michael Jackson would hurt a child. Michael wouldn't deliberately hurt ANYBODY. He is an amazing human being with a huge heart and love for everybody. I honestly do believe that God put Michael Jackson on this earth to spread joy, love and peace -- and I don't even know if I believe in God.

[@cjwilliams2339]

[@jacksongirlforeternity8217]

+Laurie Solomon YOU ARE SPEAKING MY LANGUAGE!

[@cooperbecker8064]

well most of the people that think he is a pedophile are the people that listen to the media

[@iSquishMoths]

Cooper Becker -- and the insurmountable evidence. Phone sex that he had with a 13 year old boy from Yorkshire. Why would he lie? Got zero money and zero publicity. Semen covered sheets in hotel he shares with kids. The fact that he was abused as a child. The fact that he was broke because of paying off families whose children he abused. Did you never find it strange that he would pay off these families after he spent time sleeping with their sons? 44 year old man sleeping with children that weren't his own. You think that's normal? Put it this way. I'm 44, I'll give you a gold card and you can go out shopping for the day, max it out, in return I get to spend time with your son and he sleeps over but I promise we are just sleeping, promise. You're brain dead

[@joi4youlife]

It's the future and none of our artist can compare to mj and this was in the 80s.

[@sophiejackson4909]

I just turned 24 today & all I could think about is this interview and how he says he’s 30 but he’s really 24! He’s so cute and humble.

[@applehead4730]

😂

[@CKatlyn]

as famous as this man was, he was still so down-to-earth and had a sensual feel about himself. he wrote his songs (and sang them as well) with his gift from God and pure love. he mixed his heart and soul with music, and truly portrayed that through his music but yet still remained so humble and sweet. God truly blessed us with a remarkable man, that unfortunately, was taken away too soon. there will never be another Michael Jackson, or anyone close to him. RIP MJ

[@MAJFUNKSTAR]

I saw this the first time it was aired on Tv- I think the younger generation doesn’t realise that MJ was a music industry veteran at this age! He knew everything about his craft and he was still young enough to be a teen idol... the megastardom wasn’t a ‘mistake’.. he worked hard and was wealthy for a decade + before this interview.

[@DeeJayRoyalT2]

He answers these questions very thoughtfully and sincerely. He's so honest and unpretentious its really a pleasure to listen to him speak. Compare his demeanor with that of today's artists who are all about trying to put up a front and think the more ignorant they sound they more "cool" they appear to be. Michael didn't hesitate to say his gift came from God, whereas a moron like Kanye West doesn't hesitate to tell people he IS God. The contrast between the two is startling. Thank you MJJ for everything you shared with the world.

[@AGirlWithoutAName]

I agree

[@kendrickfanwhohatesotherke2727]

Kanye west is a great artist.Him being arrogant is him trying to cover up his insecurities.808 and heartbreak, the college dropout and mbdtf are one of the most influential and loved hip-hop albums of all time.

*****​ It was wonderful growing up a child in the 80s & a teen/young adult in the 90s. I wouldn't trade it for anything. We had the best music, the best films & the best art. Everything was better in the eighties & in the nineties. Dating & relationships were certainly more fluid and more organic prior to all the dating site and everybody with their heads buried in their cell phones. I wish I'd been around for the seventies in the late sixties to experience some of that awesomeness. ✌

[@iamcasihart]

***** Girl, I still don't have a damn IPhone.😂😩😇I have a Samsung Galaxy. I will say that friendships, romantic relationships, communication, intimacy, bonds, sex & everything related to love (platonic or romantic) was so much better...more true...REAL...less fake bullshit...your boyfriend didn't have the option to send some lame-ass, lazy, passive-aggressive bullshit texts. People actually SPOKE to one another. People actually made eye contact. People were living life, smelling the flowers, experiencing it all (the good, the bad, the magnificent, the tragedies). These days, with our heads buried balls deep in our phones, we've replaced reality with a caricature of reality.

You know.. he was so honest.. so humble and just so sweet. Saying he was most comfortable on stage and that he felt the music... makes so much sense when you look at how he struggled when having to try to be a normal person.. with everyone scrutinizing him and judging him and trying to get to him.. just how scary must that have been .. and he had to face it everubsingkecday from the age of 7or 8.. until the day he died... I wish for him the peace and respect that he so very deserved that he was not given in life.. will never stop missing this most amazing man..and his music and beautiful smile xx

[@LPTV84]

Ha! I love this. My favorite Q&A is when after she asks, "Where did this gift come from?" He says instantly: "God!" ... Silence. The reporter doesn't want to go further into that, and instead skips it. I don't know why? I guess for religious or different beliefs or didn't want to for Michael's sake, but I loved how fearless he always was. Like he knew and humbly knew that his gift was from something more bigger than us, than him, than life and matter. God bless Michael Joseph Jackson and the gift Christ gave him.

[@LPTV84]

***** Thank you very much. May God bless you as well. Peace be with you in all your days my friend. I commented just because I think as a Christian, it's cool how Michael would just Thank God always to the end. Many just take their gifts and use it for wrong reasons or never do, but MJ used it for good like God made all of us to do with our gifts and talents.

[@spesfloret]

Exactly. It should always has been that way, only musical and artistic topics in MJ's interviews, as he and his countless admirers deserve. First and foremost showing: RESPECT to this amazing person/Soul and Artist.

[@nickpapageorge9049]

A lot of people talk about how he faked his higher voice in public, but as a singer I can acknowledge that he was likely just saving his voice and talking as softly as possible to preserve it for performing and recording. There is no other way to have a voice as flexible and powerful as his was. Try this famous vocal coach tip: put one hand on your larynx/adam's apple and start whispering (note you shouldn't feel anything vibration from your throat), then gradually build up the volume of the whisper until you feel your voice box vibrating. THAT pitch is the pitch at which you should be speaking all the time in order to preserve vocal health. For most men, that ends up being a bit higher than normal, and for most women, that pitch ends up being lower. TLDR: we're all modulating our voices to a different pitch than is naturally healthy (or at least optimal for singing) to try and impress the opposite sex-- Michael was a professional, and beyond having to do that.

[@1969madame]

+Nick Papageorge According to his voice coach of 30 years, Seth Riggs, Michael's speaking voice was baritone, but he preferred to speak publicly in a softer tone. He had a four octave range ---- could sing baritone to falsetto.

[@VantaBlackin]

+Nick Papageorge wow...makes perfect sense...never even considered that.

[@blindthief]

+Nick Papageorge But it wasn't like he had to perform ALL the time. Perhaps there is some truth in what you explained but I don't believe talking in a high pitched voice regularly is absolutely necessary in order to preserve a great singing voice. Other musicians who are legendary singers didn't have to speak in a high pitched voice. I think for the most part, for whatever reason, MJ was just insecure about his deep voice. I don't understand why, because I've heard his deep voice and it sounds very normal to me. But it was his life and if a high pitched voice is what made him feel comfortable so be it.

[@VantaBlackin]

blindthief that makes sense too

[@Pinklaeti75]

+blindthief Other singers don't sing in a high-pitched fashion. Michael Jackson spoke in a soft and high-pitched fashion because: 1) his father always told him and his siblings to speak like that. 2) He sang in a high-pitched fashion. Btw, since the early 2000ies, he tended to speak normally, because he didn't sing as much as he did previously.

[@riverbedflower7498]

Relax sir, I only meant I like him excessively. No disrespect meant. Michael knew his female fans liked him that way too. That’s why he ripped his white t-shirts. He told his designer Michael Bush, it was because “the girls want to see more cake.” So he had a playful thing with us, like most stars. That’s nothing new.

Michael Jackson just look so sweet and innocent also so bashful. This the side I always wanted to see in, Michael Jackson. The real cute intelligent, sweet, funny side of him. It's just a shame that we was only able to see all these footage of him now after he's gone. I love the party when the lady that's interviewing him ask how old is he, she said are you 24 now and he said no I'm 30 then laughs that was, so cute. I love you Michael Jackson.......... R.I.P
