Yann Moix, author of a book entitled Cinquante ans dans la peau de Michael Jackson (Fifty years in the skin of MJ), defended the man he claims to "adore" this weekend on the Saturday show Les Terriens du samedi on C8. Indeed, for the editorial writer, who is very upset about the new accusations of paedophilia, which he believes stain the memory of his idol, "we forget the presumption of innocence in this case". The writer, who has made a lot of headlines in recent months for his controversial statements on women, did not hide his intention to defend the late singer "to the end".
"It's not understanding anything about Michael Jackson," Yann Moix protested against the accusations of James Safechuck, now 41, and Wade Robson, 36, both of whom claim to have been raped by Thriller's interpreter when they were children.
"Michael Jackson was a child. But a child does not sleep with other children. A child only sleeps with adults who force children to sleep with children.
(say what????
) Not only is Michael Jackson not a pedophile, but - I'll even invent a word - he's an "impedophile". (...) Leave him alone, in his eternity in Neverland, where sex does not exist any more than death," the editorialist continued.
