MJ: I haven’t really had any girlfriends yet, but I’ll tell あなた what I’d like to find in a girl. She has to have a good personality. I wouldn’t want to go out with a girl unless I had talked to her for a while, seen what she’s like, asked her a lot of questions.

Super Soul, 1971

Me: “Mike, let’s talk about Jermaine first. Do あなた get along with Jermaine as well as with your friends?”

Michael: “Jermaine and I have a lot of groovy times together! We get along very well and hardly ever fight like a lot of brothers with a big age difference do! Jermaine is the kind of older brother あなた can dig. cause he’s not the type that thinks he’s smarter just because he’s an older brother.”

Me: “What do あなた think is the thing that’s most different between あなた and Jermaine?”

Michael: “There’s a big difference in the kind of girls we like. People say I’m full of energy, and I guess that’s why I like lively girls who laugh and talk a lot. Jermaine is もっと見る cool. He digs girls who are the foxy type, mysterious and quiet.”

Jackson 5 Fax, 1972

Michael: I wish girls wouldn’t think they have to be some kind of super-girl for me-or any of my brothers-to dig them. But I guess it’s because we’re in 表示する business they think our ideas about girls are so different from other guys.

Katherine Jackson’s Bio, 1990

The most tired rumor of all was the rumor that Michael was gay.

All I can say is, Michael is not gay. He intends to settle down and get married one day. We’ve talked about it. And he will.

I wish he did have that special someone to share his life with right now; his life would be richer. I think that, deep down, he does, too.

I think the reason why he’s had so few relationships in 最近 years, is that he’s been approached so many times によって women who are so obviously looking for that pot of ゴールド at the end of the 虹 that he’s grown wary. Michael wrote about this type of woman — I call her a status seeker — in his song “Dirty Diana.”

When Michael was younger he joked that “when the 愛 bug bites me, that’s when I’m going to marry.” によって 1989 he was telling me, “The woman I marry will have to have a lot of money herself. That’s the only way I’ll know for sure that she’s not marrying me for my money.”

And yet, Michael seems happy. Even though he knows that he will never be able to live a “normal” life, he seems comfortable with his fame. I believe that when he’s good and ready to get married, he’ll do it, despite the inevitable press uproar.

REBBIE: Even if Michael were to find the “perfect” woman tomorrow, I think that he would be reluctant to subject her to the incredible scrutiny that he’s subjected to every day.

Even if Michael’s wife did manage to adapt to life in a 魚 bowl, she’d also have to cope with the reality of Michael attending meetings, and members of his entourage constantly pulling on him. Some of these people, no doubt, would view her as no もっと見る than a competitor for Michael’s time.

Glenda Tapes, June 1992

M: I just… wanna know what its like, girl, to have a real relationship with someone who doesn’t want me for me – that I dont, I don’t have to look over my shoulder all the time.
G: That doesn’t have an ulterior motive?
M: Yeah, that doesn’t 質問 me… I mean..(i) I don’t… and, and.. like La Toya 発言しました in her book.. she said, either I am going to have to find somebody who doesn’t even know who the heck I am -
G: (i)
M: Orrr..oorr deal with somebody who’s career is equally as important, または equally like mine..
G: Well.. a nix to both of those.

Shmuley Tapes, 2000/1

MJ: I want someone who is a lot like me, who has the same interests and who wants to help. The ones who are classy and quiet and not into all the sex and all the craziness because I am not into that. I do not understand alot of the things that go on in relationships and I do not know if I ever will. Mean things and vulgar things with their bodies. I do not understand it and it has hurt my past relationships.

SB:Have あなた ever found girls who like practical jokes that あなた like? Have あなた ever found a woman who collects comics?
MJ: It is a rarity. If I find one I will go nuts. Especially, if she has those qualities and is beautiful inside. It would be a ホーム run for me.
MJ: I think sexy comes from the ハート, 心 in the way あなた present yourself.
SB: Have あなた ever found women who are a bit もっと見る modest to be もっと見る attractive for that reason?
MJ: Yeah. I don’t like women who are always saying, “My nails need to be done. I have to do my toes. I need a manicure.” I hate all that. I lke it when girls are a little bit もっと見る tomboyish. If they wrestle, climb a tree….. I 愛 that. It is sexier to me. I like class, though. Class is everything.

SB:Celebrities are targets for people who marry them for wrong reasons, their fortune and their name. But don’t あなた know when someone is interested in あなた for the wrong reasons?
MJ: あなた don’t know.
It is hard because the women today can do a good job of faking it. I mean a real good job. They are smooth. Look in the Bible. Women have taken the most powerful men down to nothing because of what’s between their legs.
SB: Can あなた immediately tell innocence?
MJ: Right away although I find it harder to tell with women because they’re so smooth. But with men I can usually tell, because they are もっと見る open and like puppies, while girls are もっと見る like cats. あなた know how if you’ve been on vacation and あなた get ホーム and a 子犬 is all over you, while with a cat, it’s “Hey I don’t need you, あなた come over here and pick me up”. They give あなた attitude. They’ll walk right によって あなた even though they haven’t see あなた in three months. Women are very smart. Walt ディズニー always 発言しました they are smarter than men and he always hired もっと見る women.
