Michael Jackson's 'gay fling' - Liberace's ex Scott Thorson claims he bedded star

LIBERACE’S ex-lover has claimed to have had a gay fling with Michael Jackson.

Scott Thorson, 54 — whose life with the pianist was turned into film Behind The Candelabra — said he began bedding Jacko in 1982 after he and Liberace split.

He said: “I was introduced to Michael Jackson through Liberace back in 1977 and we had a fantastic relationship.

“When we broke up in 1982, Michael swept me off my feet and said, ‘Hey, I’m breaking away from the Jackson 5. I’m going solo’. This is when the Thriller tour started. Michael swept me off my feet.”

Asked on Aussie radio if they were lovers, Scott replied: “Yes, for a short term.

“It was short term because Michael became very big at the time and his management team thought it best that we didn’t go any further with our relationship.”

He claimed they were wary of his court battle for a £73million payoff from Liberace — who died in 1987 aged 67. The case was eventually settled for just £60,000.

Scott — currently on US probation for identity theft — said he and Jacko stayed pals until the star, 50, died in 2009 from a drugs overdose.

He added: “It was very sad. But it just goes to show what these plastic surgeons can do to you — or any doctor for that matter.

“Michael started his drug addiction because of the plastic surgeons.”

This isn’t news - him having sex with a female (and that a female would let him touch her) was news....

I can tell you for a fact that she's normal in every way, and wouldn't have lasted long with any man who was a pervert.

So then...uh...WTF?

Normal? Then why?

Normal? Then why?

I can't say with certainty because I'd fallen out of her circle by that time, but my guess is that she got caught up in the idea at the time and got carried away with MJ. Infatuation with his public persona?

Dunno, but I can tell you that she wouldn't have gone that far with him, had she known about his dark side.

No doubt, MJ was also caught up with the idea, and was probably trying to be an honest man. I have a sense that it was his last attempt at being a normal human being.

I heard from an inside source several months into their marriage, that Lisa was profoundly unhappy. They split up not long after that.
