Donald Trump claims that Michael Jackson was so randy when he married Elvis’ daughter, Lisa-Marie Presley, that the pair locked themselves in a luxury apartment for seven days of sex.
According to Mirror Online, the U.S presidential runner told the tale about the late pop star while being interviewed at the CNN Republican town hall in South Carolina.
Trump, 69, said about Jacko and Lisa-Marie’s 1994 honeymoon at the Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida: “I knew Michael Jackson very well. He lived in Trump Tower for a long period of time and would go down to Mar-a-Lago.
“He actually got married – you know, to Lisa Marie Presley – and had a big deal at Mar-a-Lago. He was up there one week with her, sex and all, and he never came down... but they got along.
“People say they didn’t get along but let me tell you they were there for a week and didn’t come down at all.”
Trump also spoke of how he knew “the real story” of Michael Jackson and claimed the singer died after he lost all self-esteem due to “bad, bad, bad surgery”.
He added: “Michael Jackson was actually a very good friend of mine. You know, when he died people would come on and talk about him – people who didn't know him very well.”
Trump continued: “Because very few people got to know Michael Jackson but he was an unbelievably talented guy and he lost his confidence. He lost all his confidence. Honestly because of bad, bad, bad surgery. He had people that did numbers on him that was just unbelievable.
“And when you lose your confidence in something you can even lose your talent.”
However, Trump’s comments prompted Michael Jackson's brother Jermaine Jackson to fly into a fury yesterday. The former Jackson 5 singer Jermaine, 61, vented on Twitter that Trump was a ‘fool’ who needed to ‘sit down’ when it came to talk of his brother.
He also accused Trump of name-dropping to try and win votes. Jermaine tweeted: ‘Friends don’t pay tribute by peddling b.s. theories about Michael’s “loss in confidence”. This fool Trump needs to sit down.
‘Michael’s confidence was affected by the pressures, injustice and vitriol of external circumstances. Period. Name-dropping Michael don’t make you cool and won’t win you votes. Especially when using botched facts. It’s “botched surgery” talk that I don’t expect from a friend.’
Usually very outspoken on Twitter, Trump has remained quiet on the social network since Jermaine’s outburst.
