Yes, this! No matter what anyone thinks of this or that or whatever, watching these clips you can clearly see a timeline of consistent respect and affection. If you ever have just one ROD friend in your life, you’re truly blessed.
@@lisaleanne5973 abandoned? How was Brooke to do anything at her young age or even at an older age, with Joe calling all the shots and hovering over MJ? I mean...what could she have possibly done, especially with her own parent controlling her throughout her own lifetime? Abandoned him...nawww...I do not see that in any way when she had no means to alter, save or change what was happening with Michael Jackson. I am quite sure powerful ppl saw what was happening to Michael with his Father etc and had no means to step in and help him, so there is zero way She would have had power to do anything. I will never understand why ppl would blame her at all. I was never really a fan of Brooke Shields, but I am now a fan of how she has never slandered his name or memory. She still stands strong for him today, thats the sort of friend most can only hope acquire.
Unbelievable how rude so many of these interview questions were. Brooke handled it so graciously, but man. The media and society were just absolute scumbags to him.
Yes, I never saw most of these interviews and some of the questions she was asked were so crude and disgusting. I mean who asks a woman how big her boyfriend is and expects to get an answer. Unbelievable!
At 2:45 when Brooke talks about her going away 2 college & getting married & MJ didn't understand that, it made me think of Peter Pan when he goes back for Wendy but Wendy has grown up. 😥
At least Brook Shields is one of a few who accepted Michael as a pure hearted Human Being! I'm now a fan of Brook! I really adore Michael sooo much. There is nothing that I can say to match how much I feel for him
As spectacular as MJ was I can't ever imagine living in a cocoon for an entire life like he did. People loved him but he had very few that he trusted. CAn't you blame him. I can't imagine be loved by billions and be alone at the same time.
She wasn’t at all.. she’s the type of person that ruins someone’s life. Brooke is/was the worst in her profession, Michael was the best. She conniving and manipulative. She doesn’t defend him... she acted like he had a chance with her while running around town. She never had a crush on him.. look at the long pauses when she’s asked stuff.. she’s thinking of how to string him. Knowing Brooke does 0 for anyone, nothing to offer Jackson or anyone.
Annette...I agree. It is almost humanly impossible to being that borderline genius musically which he was...music literally poured out of every crevice in his body whether through his voice or body there is no denying that. God given talent times 100! But to fight the internal battle of also being such a grt humanitarian along with a disciplinarian in his life from such a young age to want approval from...all of these things were a recipe like ingredients in a recipe for disaster in his life! I am so glad to watch this video tonight and see him happy and joyful with Brooke! He deserved that happiness. He brought so much joy to each of us back in the late 80s early 90s. He is a light to this day in the world. His legacy and genius will live on for generations to come...praise God!
That’s because most people are experiencing life on a physical layer only. They can’t comprehend that you can love someone without wanting to be with them physically or be with them (possession) for the rest of your life. Often times empaths and sensitive people feel this kind of genuine love, soul level, free of wants and needs, just vibrating together on the same wavelength and connecting.
People are really on very different levels of Spiritual Development. Love n Kindness inspires others to GROW SPIRITUALLY, because people learn from each other. Live by EXAMPLE n you will change the World around you. Even Hussein Bolt had to CRAWL b4 he could RUN😁
Same! There were many Judas in MJ’s life example the media back then were nasty! MJ’s music says a lot if you follow his music! His speech, opinions about the system, racism etc & they can’t control MJ the way they want THeN MJ became their target to ruin! They used his LOVE for children to assassin his good reputation one of the many reasons money extortion, control him under their own law! Man, from 5-50 years old MJ GAVE IT All! He did charities, hospitals visits & donation around the world more than he did his concert! Even his surgery! Back in 80’s he fell off the stage got broken nose, got burn scalp and some area to his face and once you started surgery it needs maintenance and the pain it can cause down the road! Pain is excruciating! Even his spiritual belief they questioned, his skin colour! I can’t blame the man he got vitiligo! The world is cruel! MJ was a true philanthropist, a masterpiece creation of Heavenly God! It is really sad that the Judas people abused his kindness, talent & money! I will never judge MJ coz I’m a human being, too!
This is probably one of the most authentic interview-compilations I've seen. She used to work out at my gym in Manhattan (back in the 90s), but I never interacted with her aside from aerobics classes (I'm not the sort to idolize or harass celebs), but she seems as authentic here as she does in person. She seemed to really have a true, unadulterated love and friendship with him. I appreciate how bright, articulate, and well-reasoned her comments are. She's a thinker, and she thinks before she speaks, and it comes across as authentic.
Michael and Brooke had something very special for one another. It's clear, she's always stayed consistent of how she felt for him. With all the controversies surrounding him, she remained a true friend indeed.
Surprised by her intelligence?!?! Really? She has an Ivy League education and graduated with honors from Princeton University. Yes, she is very intelligent.
and she was this composed too when she was just a little girl. she is intelligent and so eloquent. she is admirable on so many levels. im so happy she and MJ got to befriend each other and care about one another growing up and into adulthood.
I have never been a huge Brooke Shields Fan, but I admire her relationship with Michael Jackson. A person doesn't get close to Michael Jackson unless they are a good person. She must be a really good person, because Michael Jackson loved her very much.
I applaud the bravery of Brooke speaking out about Joe Sr. She seen more than many and I am so glad she confronted him and told him how special MJ was & the life he provided for his WHOLE family.
It's a fact! Just like we have psychopaths/sociopaths we have empaths and Michael was one of them no question because by their fruits ye shall know them. Period!
Brooke and Michael remind me of soul mates. Neither of them were there to take something away from the other. They were there to give to each other, and that is a beautiful thing. 💗
@@AC-mp7cx you do know it's possible not to meet with a friend years on end and still remain extremely close right. When you have a friendship on a certain level time and distance become irrelevant where the bond is concerned. Same way that you can interact with people daily and not even be remotely close, family included
Michael is just a very solid genuine compassionate and caring person he and Brooke Shields were just good friends just like he was good friends with Elizabeth Taylor and a lot of other people he wasn't involved with her nor did they love each other on in a romantic sense it was just purely platonic innocent
@@kwatoniazakiyyahanderson8091 Exactly. MJ and Whitney were friends. They understood each other and the trappings of mega fame and fortune like very few others.
Yes, I agree, typical Oprah question, she wants to know specific every intimate detail, how dare she, I mean it's not her business, she is like an officer in a cross examination. Someone should ask her the same thing. She went too far, someone has to stop her and really tell her what about you, let's get some information about you, who is your lover? She feels as if she has the power to ask private question. That's the difference to a good journalist, they never cross a line, they ask question, were you involved in his music, what inspired him to compose etc. The man, the interviewer who made fun of Michael's nose, Brooke should have asked him to show a picture of his wife and find something to make fun of her. Brooke should have said let's turn it around and talk about what's wrong with you.....it's not kind, it's not nice, it's not appropriate, it's insensitive to make fun of somebody who is not in the room. "who you think who you are..... , a little journalist, who is not able to do a professional conversation". Brooke should not have laughed about it, she should confronted the stupid news reporter.
We (MJ fans) don’t give anywhere near enough love, credit and respect to Brooke for the dignified way she has protected Michael’s legacy and their true relationship. Thank you Brooke.
Brooke, the maturity you showed as a young person was amazing. Very wise for your young age. So glad you never “trashed him”. If one pays attention, you can see the hurt he carried with him.
Brooke is the definition of class. She’s been very mature since a young age. She had issues with her own controlling mom, yet her mom was an alcoholic, and Brooke would have to step in and be the adult. Her auto-biography is very good. She was a true friend to Michael...still is. She loved him.
I can really see that she was his true friend. such a nice person. both of them. its sad people were so cruel to him. all it would take is a little love.
@@AC-mp7cx it's called having a career. Sometimes they'd have to go long periods of time without seeing each other due to scheduling. Apparently you're not an adult with responsibilities. This isn't like highschool where all you do all day is hang out and gossip. Adulting is hard sometimes, and it takes some careful planning to see friends. Grow up or shut up.
He could never trust anyone just a very few people. And Brook was one he could trust. So many people wanted to take advantage of his fame and fortune and so many did.
The thing is I've know many people with stolen childhoods. One of them is a tier 1 special forces operator. When he was a kid in the 80s everyone had Casio watches. So with his wages now he buys watches he couldn't have as a kid. Another guy is a regular worker now. But he but transformer toys. MJ wanted to go to theme parks and zoos. He still couldn't go as an adult but he had the means to build neverland. It makes perfect sense. He is compensating as others do.
Oprah, is so hateful. It’s like she wants her to admit Michael was a freak, and when Brooke doesn’t give her that it made me happy. That’s a true friend that loves you, they stick up for you through thick and thin. I’m glad they were friends and never let hate from vicious interviewers like Oprah take that away.
Watching Oprah's interviews makes me wonder why people love her so much. I mean judgemental doesn't even begin to describe the way she asks about the subject.
You can feel how sincere Brooke is when she answered each and every question asked. No matter how tricky the question could have been, she always answered what would always been in her heart: The truth! And I appreciate that a lot. People don’t realize that sometimes friendships could be so genuine that can be misconstrued... God bless you Brook for your honesty...👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I just love the relationship that they had Michael & Brooke, it wasn't romantic nor sexual nor anything like that, just a pure loving friendship. I also love the way Brooke guarded/protected what they had and she didn't let Oprah nor other interviewers put words in her mouth and try to make it into something else, as Brooke described their relationship. Thumbs up for you Brooke for staying strong, pure and true........MJ. would had been pleased with you Brooke and your loyalty.💖
Yes, he was, but for Brooke she wasn't in love with him, she admitted that she loved him as a good friend. The feelings they had for each other wasn't mutual. But they still had a very good friendship with love in it, but never romantic. Sometimes those are the very best relationships and last forever, with no break-ups, no drama, not physical contact, no babies, no nothing to worry about, because your not together, as a couple. Brooke was very young at that time, younger than Micheal and his lifestyle was much faster than Brooke's, he was a big-time star, like the biggest. That was very smart of her to stay focus on what she wanted out of life. So many times young people everywhere get pressured and rushed into things and it doesn't always last (or) turn out right and they have much regret later. Thank goodness Brooke knew what she wanted, she turned out well. God bless her. 🙏
I remember hearing her speak at his funeral and just thinking this is true best friend friendship. Men and women can have that without it being romantic and so few people don’t get that!
I think esp when you have been constant shit and trauma, its such a relief to find someone who doesnt need anything from you, you value that innocense and freedom so much, itsin most cases almost a blamish to introduce sexuality into that, unless its very innocent and natural as well and not driven by lower desires but just by the wish to be close ect
I’ll never forget how bad OPRAH betrayed MJ and his beloved mother. I’m so happy to know that Brooke Shields was a True Friend. I also appreciate that MJ’s mother knew Brooke was his sincere confidant. 🙇🏻♀️🔍❤️🙏🏽
100%.. he had many celeb friends who were 100% loyal to him, mcauley culkin being one, corey fieldman another, many who helped him on his tours. His closest and dearest know the true michael, and they only had the very best to say about him.
@@shadhaebadhy1146 micheal allowed her bum ass to interview him and he trusted her. She constantly bashed him when she interviewed him and years after he died she made a documentary about micheal's fake "allegations". She's fake asf.
@@Laila-hl8dc I saw that interview. I completely lost whatever shred of respect I had for her after that. She didn't give a shit about Michael, only about her ratings and serving the media machine.
The guy who asked about MJ being eerie is eerie for asking that. The fact that they didn't like him because he was very unique, annoys me. They are an inferior form of life these journalists are.
Yes, but she was also laughing at his line of questioning like there was something funny. There is no way someone could have spoken negative about my "friend" like that and I find it funny. You should see how Diana Ross handled it when someone tried to criticize MJ to her.
Omg that bothered me too! that was so rude to even ask that. Just because he’s unique does not mean that he’s weird or something is seriously wrong with him. I would have gotten angry at that question
I like how Brooke explained it. When she said that MJ was a genius and had a level of talent that made other people feel like they had to put MJ down to feel better about themselves, I think she was talking to guy doing the interview. She didn't blow up on the man but she clearly told him that he was inferior to MJ, and he obviously knew it based on his attitude. 😁
6:39 It's proof of how classy she is because she never got annoyed or defensive, continued to match the giggling energy, all while debunking everything he was saying. Wow. That's a skill.
THANK YOU! I neverrrr understood how people bought her bullshit. She hides her devil horns behind her philanthropy. She’s not a genuine person and it’s so easy to tell.
She figured it all out: "And I think what happens is when you see genius and when you see a talent that is just unstoppable and untouchable, the first reaction people have is to criticize it because it scares them, it threatens them. And it sort of it in order to augment their own self-worth, they feel that they have to belittle him."
For some reason I never used to like Brooke when she was a kid ( i am around her age). Then I read an article about her and it really changed my mind. She really is a decent caring person it's amazing that she is as well-adjusted as she is. Her mother was a piece of work.
@@fender1000100 - Brooke is another example that Hollywood does not actually make nor break you. I'm not stating that there are not some bad people in Hollywood. Some people stated that Brooke's mother was harmful towards her. I see why Her and Michael are/were very close. Their so-called parents were harmful.
I didn't know she was so smart, now I understand why she and Michael got along so well. I named my son after him.... It wasn't even a conscious choice, it's just a nice name that reminds me of the beautiful person MJ was. Pure, intelligent, talented, unique and loving.
The kind of relationship she had with Michael was like the relationship jada had with 2pac but they never took things to that next level sadly...rip Mike & Pac
I don’t think I have ever watched a you tube interview twice through, so this is saying something. I’m so impressed by Brooke’s strength of character to know what she feels from a young age and be able to express it consistently without being influenced to give any dirt by these pushy interviewers. Very impressive. Love her pure sweetness
6:07m...This man is so disrespectful towards Brooke ánd Michael. Just making fun of them with his idiot words about a nose and the weather. He is making me pug with his wicked grin🤢
First time seeing these interviews, what a great woman Brooke is. You can tell she knew Michael very well and would protect him at all times. No amount of money can buy that kind of friendship.
My heart breaks 💔 Michael was a unique human being with so much genius inside of him!! You will always live on in our hearts & souls. Love you for all eternity! ❤️✌️🏽🤗
I've always loved the friendship of MJ and Brooke Shields. She was a TRUE friend, kept discreet about what they did together and you gotta love a woman who is tipsy walking straight up to Papa Joe and basically reading him, then thanking him for making the man who was her friend till death took them apart.
Brooke shields has really impressed me with her kindness and loyalty. She seems like a lovely person and I can’t believe this business hasn’t jaded her. I’m a fan!
They were so loyal to each other Michael trusted her and she trusted him , they had a beautiful friendship. I’m glad Michael was able to be himself around her .
This brought me to tears. To think that the one person you had a crush on for years would one day so perfectly put in their place the one person who caused you the most incredible misery for years... That is the absolute best way Brooke could have honoured Michael's memory. All I can say is, the universe is my witness, those two were meant to come together. Proud to have always known and loved both of them. RIP Michael, you will always be an angel
I would tell her to quit interrupting me after she asks a question and would ask her why she even has guests in the show when she only ever wants to hear herself talk. I’m sure her nasty producers would cut to commercial and get me off the show because I don’t have anything nice to say to - or about - Oprah.
Wow. Say what you want about Brooke but she fiercely and graciously laid it out and explained why people love mocking Michael when she was interviewed on Oprah's show. she also handled a lot of crazy questions about him well, lol.
@@AC-mp7cx no problem, i get it. he is the king of kpop, literally. but you can have a life outside of michael! i hope you don’t feel the urge to defend him all the time, he’d want you to live your own life and have fun :) have a good day either ways !
THIS is what we should hear about Michael Jackson, the truth. He suffered so much through life and always remained a beautiful human being. No one will ever come close to comparing to you, our King of Pop.
Not a Journalist , its a young Jonathan Ross, a Chat show host. He's one of the top Hosts in the UK today. But most of the A listers like Tom Cruise and Will Smith etc avoid his show because he can be a bit obnoxious...
Extremely obnoxious. I can only imagine living with that constant ridicule. Brooke was graceful in her answers, but inside she must have been hurt by his questions
It’s sad Michael never truly had a genuine relationship with some one who was just as pure as him & loved him the way he did with the people he associated with
Michael was so pure and lovable human being on this earth.. that no one can match him for being a Life partner..He remains Alone only music was There to be his partner
Very refreshing to listen to someone so smart grounded and humble that didn’t let fame and fortune destroy her or let opportunity come between her and her friends.
@@AC-mp7cx you’ve no idea what you’re talking about...going out on a limb that you’re pretty young, haven’t lived life yet, So I’ll give you a pass on your ignorant comment
@@JF-NYC-NJ-Girl ma'am with all due respect I'm going to pick Michael's mourning father who stood by him through thick and thin over a white actress who just showed up with him to award shows.
Whoever put this together, thank you! It’s really beautiful, and we don’t get a whole lot of things that are just beautiful these days. There’s no judgement or angle….just a love story. And that’s what the most special friendships are. ❤
Real talk, don’t know much about this lady but her DEPTH and understanding of people and being able to articulate relationships and being human so well from a young and older age. She’s amazing.
My jaw hit the floor! I have been a fan of Brooke's for as long as I can remember and I've watched hundreds of interviews with her and read hundreds more back in the day when the only way to get teen celebrity news was in Bop, 16 & Tiger Beat magazines (lol, but for real) and I don't think I've ever seen or heard her say a single negative thing about anyone ever. Okay, maybe a little bit about Tom Cruise when he was bashing her back when she went public about taking antidepressants for her post partum depression, I think she basically said he should stick to saving the world from aliens and let women decide what medical treatment is right for them. Regardless, the fact that she just came right out and said all that about Joe completely caught me by surprise and when someone who typically takes great care to be diplomatic about what they say publicly about other people comes out and is that overt about someone being such an awful person, you have to wonder what she knows about them that she didn't say.
@@sunnidavis195 Yes, I agree that was very uncharacteristic of Brooke to speak negatively about anyone, she did sound very credible in this video when she spoke about Joe Jackson. I have always gotten a bad vibe off that man.
I completely relate, when you feel you have missed out so much of your childhood due to a difficult life, sometimes you find that one person who you can relive your childhood with. You get to be kids again, and have fun and talk for hours and do things you've missed out on. Not everyone can understand that. They both were made to work from a young age and had so much of their youth stripped away. They both had a parent that didn't treat them like humans with feelings. They were an asset to their parent, something to control and use for their own gain. I can see why they were so close and always remained connected. It wasn't romantic love, it was a deeper connection and a type of love that many don't always understand.
I knew that they had a close relationship, an actual true friendship. I didn't realize how far back it went. In every interview shown she defended him and "body blocked" any attempt to get her to say something negative about him. That is a TRUE friend and now the words she spoke at his memorial truly hit my heart. We can all hope to have a true friend like Ms. Shields and to have a true friendship like they did. Great video!
@@AC-mp7cx If you noticed no celebrities did. Probably at the request of his attorneys. It was already sensationalized. Having a Who's Who of famous friends showing up would take away from case, not add to it. You have to keep it as simple as possible. Keep the focus and proving his innocence not who is going to testify next.
This is why a respect this woman, besides her career, talent and beauty, she's so pure, you can say that for the way she talks about her beloved friend, so gracefully, even when she had to ask rude questions about him
MJ’s the greatest of all time don’t let them rewrite history saying otherwise, the greatest selling, best performer, best entertainer & most talented solo artist ever Happy Dangerous 29 anniversary guys
He is LEGENDARY! An extraordinarily, talented old soul! He never got to grow up! Yet was saddled with grown up responsibility! A freaking GENIUS With an INNOCENCE!!!
Just now seeing this. Big MJ fan for decades. I remember when MJ took her to the AMAs and Grammys. Of course his fans always knew they were super close. But hearing her talk about him in the clips I had never seen before was amazing. She got him. She knew him. She didn’t judge him. She didn’t use him. They were there for each other. Amazing. That said, I want to smack the hell out of the talk show host who was making fun of MJ’s nose and doing so in front of one of his best friends. She handled it with grace. I would have told him off.
Its beautiful that Brooke Shields opening up about Michael and defend him against the press made about him.She is a real great person.That is why Michael got a crush on her for years.Beautiful words from her.Happy Thanksgiving.
One thing about MJ’s fans me also being one of them - we really appreciate anyone or everyone that loved MJ loudly. It really warms our heart when we see it and we are instantly thankful 😊
Oprah really got on my nerves. The audacity this woman has displayed time and time again is astonishing to me. Yet she’s been celebrated all over the world for her supposed kindness.
Brook gave such a sweet and loving speech at Michaels memorial. I could picture Michael with his beautiful smile as she spoke about him. Very touching because it clearly came from her heart.
@@judithryle2113 Because they had a bond and true friendship, even if they didn't speak a lot in his last years. And they would still speak on important occasions etc.

Yes, this! No matter what anyone thinks of this or that or whatever, watching these clips you can clearly see a timeline of consistent respect and affection. If you ever have just one ROD friend in your life, you’re truly blessed.

“Your son changed the world and he was MY friend!” my heart.

She confronted the abuser. That's integrity!

Brooke understand Michael Jackson more so than other people. She was a good friend to him.❤

You're right. Brooke is kind,beautiful and a true friend to Michael even after his death,she never said anything bad about him.

Yes very true but Michael was an artist in every sense of the word. He was a poet and could draw too aside from music.
So agree!
I'm glad someone is saying something positive about Michael. I'm also glad that MJ had a true friend.
It was more about that but she don’t want to talk about. It’s personal. She didn’t denied though she had an affair with him she didn’t confirm ever.
Michael was also go friend's with Donny Osmond. Donny had invited him to Michael to his house the week before Michael passed.
@dudaresend I Wonder why she publicly deny her relationship with Michael was " more than friends "e She Never Confesses. 955
She seems like a sincerely genuine person that really cared about Michael and she was consistent throughout all of the interviews.
Yes when he was alive, and when he passed away she never changed her stories.
🤣
Yeah Brooke and Elizabeth Taylor and Chris tucker and Debbie as well never changed their stories
she didnt care
she leeched onto his fame
it's hilarious how many people don't understand that romantic love isn't the only kind of love you may experience
Exactly!
That’s because most people are experiencing life on a physical layer only.
They can’t comprehend that you can love someone without wanting to be with them physically or be with them (possession) for the rest of your life.
Often times empaths and sensitive people feel this kind of genuine love, soul level, free of wants and needs, just vibrating together on the same wavelength and connecting.

Same! There were many Judas in MJ’s life example the media back then were nasty! MJ’s music says a lot if you follow his music! His speech, opinions about the system, racism etc & they can’t control MJ the way they want THeN MJ became their target to ruin! They used his LOVE for children to assassin his good reputation one of the many reasons money extortion, control him under their own law! Man, from 5-50 years old MJ GAVE IT All! He did charities, hospitals visits & donation around the world more than he did his concert! Even his surgery! Back in 80’s he fell off the stage got broken nose, got burn scalp and some area to his face and once you started surgery it needs maintenance and the pain it can cause down the road! Pain is excruciating! Even his spiritual belief they questioned, his skin colour! I can’t blame the man he got vitiligo! The world is cruel! MJ was a true philanthropist, a masterpiece creation of Heavenly God! It is really sad that the Judas people abused his kindness, talent & money! I will never judge MJ coz I’m a human being, too!
“It’s love on a different level”...
I understand you Brooke and, no worries, Oprah never will understand that.
Oprah can’t fathom it because she has never had it. It’s disgusting how she dances around the idea of Brooke and Michael having sex. 😡
Sometimes Oprah is rude
❤❤❤
And many others.
F Oprah
The last part where Brooke is talking about her conversation with Paris, and saying that she really missed him. Wow. Made me tear up.

Me too. It was else quite painful to hear about MJ's dad how much he did hurt him.

This is probably one of the most authentic interview-compilations I've seen. She used to work out at my gym in Manhattan (back in the 90s), but I never interacted with her aside from aerobics classes (I'm not the sort to idolize or harass celebs), but she seems as authentic here as she does in person. She seemed to really have a true, unadulterated love and friendship with him.
I appreciate how bright, articulate, and well-reasoned her comments are. She's a thinker, and she thinks before she speaks, and it comes across as authentic.

Michael and Brooke had something very special for one another. It's clear, she's always stayed consistent of how she felt for him. With all the controversies surrounding him, she remained a true friend indeed.

Yeah she’s always been very well spoken and articulate. She’s never come across as an airhead.
She’s VERY smart and I could see that she and MJ stimulated each other intellectually. They were good friends for so many reasons.

and she was this composed too when she was just a little girl. she is intelligent and so eloquent. she is admirable on so many levels. im so happy she and MJ got to befriend each other and care about one another growing up and into adulthood.
Her responses, her loyalty & her respect for Michael and their friendship (even while in her youth) is something to be admired and applauded. 💫
Yup

She's is incredibly intelligent in all her interviews. Even in that one when she was 16.

I have never been a huge Brooke Shields Fan, but I admire her relationship with Michael Jackson. A person doesn't get close to Michael Jackson unless they are a good person. She must be a really good person, because Michael Jackson loved her very much.
I applaud the bravery of Brooke speaking out about Joe Sr. She seen more than many and I am so glad she confronted him and told him how special MJ was & the life he provided for his WHOLE family.
Yassss! "You never liked me, but thank you for your son". Class.
That takes some courage! I bet no one ever stood up to him quite like that. Bravo!
What she said to him was perfect. She was honest but also humble and classy. If anybody's words could change that man's heart, it was Brooke's.
bruh shes stupid af. JOE IS HIS DAD AND HE FORGAVE HIM
Plus with them being friends u can only imagine the stories MJ told her about his Dad
I believe Michael was an empath. He was a light.
It's a fact! Just like we have psychopaths/sociopaths we have empaths and Michael was one of them no question because by their fruits ye shall know them. Period!
Well put.. I'm one too.
As an empathy myself, I agree. May he RIP.
True. He was an empath and this world doesn’t understand empathy.
I'm an empath too, but my childhood was not bad, its been my adulthood.
She has set a new standard of friendship for me! In every interview she had his back, even after his death. No switching sides
Brooke and Michael remind me of soul mates. Neither of them were there to take something away from the other. They were there to give to each other, and that is a beautiful thing. 💗

@@AC-mp7cx you do know it's possible not to meet with a friend years on end and still remain extremely close right. When you have a friendship on a certain level time and distance become irrelevant where the bond is concerned. Same way that you can interact with people daily and not even be remotely close, family included
Michael is just a very solid genuine compassionate and caring person he and Brooke Shields were just good friends just like he was good friends with Elizabeth Taylor and a lot of other people he wasn't involved with her nor did they love each other on in a romantic sense it was just purely platonic innocent
@@kwatoniazakiyyahanderson8091 Exactly. MJ and Whitney were friends. They understood each other and the trappings of mega fame and fortune like very few others.
These questions that people would ask about him are soooo idiotic...
exact.!!!!!
Yes, I agree, typical Oprah question, she wants to know specific every intimate detail, how dare she, I mean it's not her business, she is like an officer in a cross examination. Someone should ask her the same thing. She went too far, someone has to stop her and really tell her what about you, let's get some information about you, who is your lover? She feels as if she has the power to ask private question. That's the difference to a good journalist, they never cross a line, they ask question, were you involved in his music, what inspired him to compose etc.
The man, the interviewer who made fun of Michael's nose, Brooke should have asked him to show a picture of his wife and find something to make fun of her. Brooke should have said let's turn it around and talk about what's wrong with you.....it's not kind, it's not nice, it's not appropriate, it's insensitive to make fun of somebody who is not in the room. "who you think who you are..... , a little journalist, who is not able to do a professional conversation". Brooke should not have laughed about it, she should confronted the stupid news reporter.

Brooke, the maturity you showed as a young person was amazing. Very wise for your young age. So glad you never “trashed him”. If one pays attention, you can see the hurt he carried with him.
Brooke is the definition of class. She’s been very mature since a young age. She had issues with her own controlling mom, yet her mom was an alcoholic, and Brooke would have to step in and be the adult. Her auto-biography is very good. She was a true friend to Michael...still is. She loved him.
Very mature

I can really see that she was his true friend. such a nice person. both of them. its sad people were so cruel to him. all it would take is a little love.
@@AC-mp7cx it's called having a career. Sometimes they'd have to go long periods of time without seeing each other due to scheduling. Apparently you're not an adult with responsibilities. This isn't like highschool where all you do all day is hang out and gossip. Adulting is hard sometimes, and it takes some careful planning to see friends. Grow up or shut up.
Her eulogy of Michael Jackson was beautiful and heartfelt and really humanized him.
She never talked bad about him.
Because she is and always has been a class act. Garbage celebrities today dont even come close.
why she should? 🤔
No one has that was close to him. Tabloids are filth.
What makes she must talked???
The one who is real friend never does that.
It's funny. I never personally believed all these rumours about him. He never got to have a real childhood. Arrested development says it best.
He could never trust anyone just a very few people. And Brook was one he could trust. So many people wanted to take advantage of his fame and fortune and so many did.
The thing is I've know many people with stolen childhoods. One of them is a tier 1 special forces operator. When he was a kid in the 80s everyone had Casio watches. So with his wages now he buys watches he couldn't have as a kid.
Another guy is a regular worker now. But he but transformer toys.
MJ wanted to go to theme parks and zoos. He still couldn't go as an adult but he had the means to build neverland.
It makes perfect sense. He is compensating as others do.
@@John.Spandli totally understand and makes perfect sense to me.
Michael turned into a monster
Arrested development leads to arrest records!
Oprah, is so hateful. It’s like she wants her to admit Michael was a freak, and when Brooke doesn’t give her that it made me happy. That’s a true friend that loves you, they stick up for you through thick and thin. I’m glad they were friends and never let hate from vicious interviewers like Oprah take that away.
Watching Oprah's interviews makes me wonder why people love her so much. I mean judgemental doesn't even begin to describe the way she asks about the subject.
Agreed. I was out after the Harry and Meghan interview. It was a horrible interview.
They've figured her out. She has a horrible reputation now.
I despise that woman

The Olsen twins "interview" was just outrageous.
You can feel how sincere Brooke is when she answered each and every question asked. No matter how tricky the question could have been, she always answered what would always been in her heart: The truth! And I appreciate that a lot. People don’t realize that sometimes friendships could be so genuine that can be misconstrued... God bless you Brook for your honesty...👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I just love the relationship that they had Michael & Brooke, it wasn't romantic nor sexual nor anything like that, just a pure loving friendship. I also love the way Brooke guarded/protected what they had and she didn't let Oprah nor other interviewers put words in her mouth and try to make it into something else, as Brooke described their relationship. Thumbs up for you Brooke for staying strong, pure and true........MJ. would had been pleased with you Brooke and your loyalty.💖
Yes, he was, but for Brooke she wasn't in love with him, she admitted that she loved him as a good friend. The feelings they had for each other wasn't mutual. But they still had a very good friendship with love in it, but never romantic. Sometimes those are the very best relationships and last forever, with no break-ups, no drama, not physical contact, no babies, no nothing to worry about, because your not together, as a couple. Brooke was very young at that time, younger than Micheal and his lifestyle was much faster than Brooke's, he was a big-time star, like the biggest. That was very smart of her to stay focus on what she wanted out of life. So many times young people everywhere get pressured and rushed into things and it doesn't always last (or) turn out right and they have much regret later. Thank goodness Brooke knew what she wanted, she turned out well. God bless her. 🙏
I remember hearing her speak at his funeral and just thinking this is true best friend friendship. Men and women can have that without it being romantic and so few people don’t get that!
I think esp when you have been constant shit and trauma, its such a relief to find someone who doesnt need anything from you, you value that innocense and freedom so much, itsin most cases almost a blamish to introduce sexuality into that, unless its very innocent and natural as well and not driven by lower desires but just by the wish to be close ect
I’ll never forget how bad OPRAH betrayed MJ and his beloved mother. I’m so happy to know that Brooke Shields was a True Friend. I also appreciate that MJ’s mother knew Brooke was his sincere confidant. 🙇🏻♀️🔍❤️🙏🏽

Facts 👍🏼
Possibly Brook didn't look at him with the love of a woman, but Michael would surely have loved it.
The guy who asked about MJ being eerie is eerie for asking that. The fact that they didn't like him because he was very unique, annoys me. They are an inferior form of life these journalists are.
they been trying to destroy this man career and image for years and they still would try to and will and i believe thats what to him outta here sad.
Yes, but she was also laughing at his line of questioning like there was something funny. There is no way someone could have spoken negative about my "friend" like that and I find it funny. You should see how Diana Ross handled it when someone tried to criticize MJ to her.
Omg that bothered me too! that was so rude to even ask that. Just because he’s unique does not mean that he’s weird or something is seriously wrong with him. I would have gotten angry at that question
I like how Brooke explained it. When she said that MJ was a genius and had a level of talent that made other people feel like they had to put MJ down to feel better about themselves, I think she was talking to guy doing the interview. She didn't blow up on the man but she clearly told him that he was inferior to MJ, and he obviously knew it based on his attitude. 😁

Oprah’s exactly like Wendy Williams so idk why people praise her 😭
Facts she’s so annoying
Cause she was the first black woman onTV
Oprah is worse. At least Wendy defends MJ.
THANK YOU! I neverrrr understood how people bought her bullshit. She hides her devil horns behind her philanthropy. She’s not a genuine person and it’s so easy to tell.
I agree!!!!!
She figured it all out: "And I think what happens is when you see genius and when you see a talent that is just unstoppable and untouchable, the first reaction people have is to criticize it because it scares them, it threatens them. And it sort of it in order to augment their own self-worth, they feel that they have to belittle him."
her final talk about when she met Paris...that made me cry
me too
I slightly judged her and thought she was with him for more fame but I truly thinks he is good friend and understood him!!
I did too but she changed my mind speaking at his funeral
No Brooke is a real nice person. One of the deeper people to come out of the hollywood machine.
She had her own fame...it was pure friendship.
For some reason I never used to like Brooke when she was a kid ( i am around her age). Then I read an article about her and it really changed my mind. She really is a decent caring person it's amazing that she is as well-adjusted as she is. Her mother was a piece of work.
@@fender1000100 - Brooke is another example that Hollywood does not actually make nor break you. I'm not stating that there are not some bad people in Hollywood. Some people stated that Brooke's mother was harmful towards her. I see why Her and Michael are/were very close. Their so-called parents were harmful.
I didn't know she was so smart, now I understand why she and Michael got along so well. I named my son after him.... It wasn't even a conscious choice, it's just a nice name that reminds me of the beautiful person MJ was. Pure, intelligent, talented, unique and loving.

I've always loved the friendship of MJ and Brooke Shields. She was a TRUE friend, kept discreet about what they did together and you gotta love a woman who is tipsy walking straight up to Papa Joe and basically reading him, then thanking him for making the man who was her friend till death took them apart.
Brooke shields has really impressed me with her kindness and loyalty. She seems like a lovely person and I can’t believe this business hasn’t jaded her. I’m a fan!
They were so loyal to each other Michael trusted her and she trusted him , they had a beautiful friendship. I’m glad Michael was able to be himself around her .
she road his coattails
She really has a profound understanding of MJ. You can tell by how she describes him that she really is a good friend that valued their relationship.
This brought me to tears. To think that the one person you had a crush on for years would one day so perfectly put in their place the one person who caused you the most incredible misery for years... That is the absolute best way Brooke could have honoured Michael's memory. All I can say is, the universe is my witness, those two were meant to come together. Proud to have always known and loved both of them. RIP Michael, you will always be an angel

Right. Brooke did not have a traditional childhood either. That is likely one of the things that bonded them.

Real talk, don’t know much about this lady but her DEPTH and understanding of people and being able to articulate relationships and being human so well from a young and older age. She’s amazing.
Dude she called Joe “it” I wonder how vile he really was. She even said he wasn’t human 🤭 I’m shocked
My jaw hit the floor! I have been a fan of Brooke's for as long as I can remember and I've watched hundreds of interviews with her and read hundreds more back in the day when the only way to get teen celebrity news was in Bop, 16 & Tiger Beat magazines (lol, but for real) and I don't think I've ever seen or heard her say a single negative thing about anyone ever. Okay, maybe a little bit about Tom Cruise when he was bashing her back when she went public about taking antidepressants for her post partum depression, I think she basically said he should stick to saving the world from aliens and let women decide what medical treatment is right for them. Regardless, the fact that she just came right out and said all that about Joe completely caught me by surprise and when someone who typically takes great care to be diplomatic about what they say publicly about other people comes out and is that overt about someone being such an awful person, you have to wonder what she knows about them that she didn't say.
@@sunnidavis195 Yes, I agree that was very uncharacteristic of Brooke to speak negatively about anyone, she did sound very credible in this video when she spoke about Joe Jackson. I have always gotten a bad vibe off that man.
Well yeah. We already know from Michael himself that he would "vomit" before he had to go and see his Dad.
Evil, is the correct term.
Joe was monster !he killed mj's childhood
@@sunnidavis195 well, it makes her assessment credible.
I completely relate, when you feel you have missed out so much of your childhood due to a difficult life, sometimes you find that one person who you can relive your childhood with. You get to be kids again, and have fun and talk for hours and do things you've missed out on. Not everyone can understand that. They both were made to work from a young age and had so much of their youth stripped away. They both had a parent that didn't treat them like humans with feelings. They were an asset to their parent, something to control and use for their own gain. I can see why they were so close and always remained connected. It wasn't romantic love, it was a deeper connection and a type of love that many don't always understand.
I knew that they had a close relationship, an actual true friendship. I didn't realize how far back it went. In every interview shown she defended him and "body blocked" any attempt to get her to say something negative about him. That is a TRUE friend and now the words she spoke at his memorial truly hit my heart. We can all hope to have a true friend like Ms. Shields and to have a true friendship like they did. Great video!
she never defended him in 1993 and 2005
@@AC-mp7cx If you noticed no celebrities did. Probably at the request of his attorneys. It was already sensationalized.

@@aizenzae4510 Publicity stunt marriage. I don't believe for a second that Michael was ever in love with her.
@@Spunky1991 nah he loved her he was just scared that she was tryna take advantage of him
@@aizenzae4510 I don't agree. Publicity stunt marriage. You can believe whatever you want. But that's my opinion. And I'm sticking with it.
No. They were friends.
Brook Shields, this is one of the best interviews I've ever seen about Michael. You are honest, insightful, smart and loyal. Thank you!!!!
Brooke comes across as mentally and emotionally intelligent. Seems a genuine person and trustworthy.
He is LEGENDARY! An extraordinarily, talented old soul! He never got to grow up! Yet was saddled with grown up responsibility! A freaking GENIUS With an INNOCENCE!!!
She is so classy, so authentic, so gracious. She did not let rude questions throw her.
Just now seeing this. Big MJ fan for decades. I remember when MJ took her to the AMAs and Grammys. Of course his fans always knew they were super close. But hearing her talk about him in the clips I had never seen before was amazing. She got him. She knew him. She didn’t judge him. She didn’t use him. They were there for each other. Amazing.
That said, I want to smack the hell out of the talk show host who was making fun of MJ’s nose and doing so in front of one of his best friends. She handled it with grace. I would have told him off.
Its beautiful that Brooke Shields opening up about Michael and defend him against the press made about him.She is a real great person.That is why Michael got a crush on her for years.Beautiful words from her.Happy Thanksgiving.
Huh?? Defending him? He's dead. Where was she when he needed it most?? Please!!
she wasnt true. They didnt even meet for years on end. she was mia and fake af
One thing about MJ’s fans me also being one of them - we really appreciate anyone or everyone that loved MJ loudly. It really warms our heart when we see it and we are instantly thankful 😊
Oprah really got on my nerves. The audacity this woman has displayed time and time again is astonishing to me. Yet she’s been celebrated all over the world for her supposed kindness.
Brook gave such a sweet and loving speech at Michaels memorial. I could picture Michael with his beautiful smile as she spoke about him. Very touching because it clearly came from her heart.
She had not been around him for years. Why they picked her to speak is crazy
@@judithryle2113 Because they had a bond and true friendship, even if they didn't speak a lot in his last years. And they would still speak on important occasions etc.
