In even more revealing Michael Jackson news, some audio tapes have been released by Jackson’s “friend” Rabbi Shmuley Boteach and some people may be a bit shocked in what the Kin of Pop said. Granted these tapes were recorded back in 1999 and 2001, but just now we get a listen to what Jackson thought of certain people in his life.
According to a source, for about 30 hours Boteach taped conversations between himself and Michael Jackson and they are now being released for a book titled “The Michael Jackson Tapes: A Tragic Icon Reveals His Soul in Intimate Conversation”.
So what exactly does Jackson say?
Well, in one part of the interview he says that he always wants to be surrounded by kids and that he surrounded himself with mannequins because he was so lonely. Yeah that is pretty strange, but perhaps that stems from the fact that how his father would strip him nude and oil him down to beat him while his mother yelled “please don’t kill him”?
About aging, Jackson adds, “I think growing old is the ugliest thing. When the body breaks down and you start to wrinkle, I think it’s so bad. I never want to look in the mirror and see that. I really don’t. People say that growing old is beautiful. I disagree. I don’t want to look old and start forgetting. I want to always be youthful and have the energy to run around and play hide and seek, which is one of my favorite games.”
Perhaps the juiciest was the fact that he dishes out some things on celebrities, particularly Madonna saying, “They admire you and they know you’re wonderful and great but they’re jealous because they wish they were in your shoes…and M is one of them, Madonna. She’s not that nice….”
These tapes sound pretty interesting. What are your thoughts? Was it appropriate for the Rabbi to release these?
Rabbi Shmuley’s Boteach’s new book The Michael Jackson Tapes: A Tragic Icon Reveals His Soul in Intimate Conversation will be published this Friday, September 25th and will be available in all book stores. www.shmuley.com

What i think Michael tried to be the best for all of us, for his family, for his children, but we never got to understand him as a person, what he went through when he was a child, we were busy passing on judgments to him. I know he is in a much better place right now .
Rabbi exposed Michael, the person.
His is a very sad story, but i do believe this man, michael jackson with a wonderful mind is in a much much better place, away from pain, pressure, exploitation and pain again. it is good to know people like the rabbi who do not trush him. RIP Mr. Jackson.
