The Theology of Michael Jackson

|


From Entertainment Weekly's story on the forthcoming Michael Jackson documentary This Is It:

"We went and met with Michael, and [director] Kenny [Ortega] said, 'Michael, you've got to stop. We've got an incredible show, we don't need any more vignettes.' Michael said, 'But Kenny, God channels this through me at night. I can't sleep because I'm so supercharged.' Kenny said, 'But Michael, we have to finish. Can't God take a vacation?' Without missing a beat, Michael said, 'You don't understand—if I'm not there to receive these ideas, God might give them to Prince.'"
