“Michael had this monkey called Bubbles. And they brought in Bubbles one 日 after lunch when my daughter was with me – she was seven at the time, her name is Lilly. And there weren’t many kids around at that time. This was in the Encino house, before he moved out to Neverland. And the monkey comes in and takes one look at Lilly, my little seven 年 old girl, and grabs her によって the arm – and then starts dragging her out of the room. And Michael Jackson grabs Lily’s other arm. And he says to the monkey, “Hey Bubbles – Where あなた goin’ with my girlfriend?”
Meanwhile, I notice that the hand that is being held によって the monkey is turning blue, because he’s got this vice grip on it. So I said, Mike, this is getting a little old here, I’m a little worried about the hand turning blue. So he kind of intervened, sort of kicked the monkey with his foot. But it’s that moment – where the monkey is pulling one way, and Michael is pulling the other, and Lilly looks up at me, and Michael goes, “Hey Bubbles – where あなた going with my girlfriend?” And my ハート, 心 just went out to him, it was such a sweet thing to do.”

Why the finger tapes??
Michael Beardon (Musical Director of This Is It) has to answer:
"I asked him one day" MJ why あなた have this tape in your hands? "I always wanted to know, and I could ask him personally afterwards. If あなた can ask someone like Michael need something, what would あなた ask him?
And so great was Michael, he has replied to me.
"You want to really know you?" The tape around his fingers, he said, well, that feels good. And あなた see it, the white tape, your eyes follow him automatically. This is one of the show-biz things he learned when he was a child.
