Michael Jackson Memorial: Magic Johnson KFC story

[Bindiscrocgirl]

How can you not love this part of the memorial. This part made me smile. I wasn't much into KFC. I don't call KFC KFC anymore I have renamed it MJC (Michael Jackson's Chicken)

[mjjqueen9]

[AxJames007]

@benos that's koby bryant,the basketball star.from the L.A LAKERS.

[benos]

lol stereotypes.

[TifoMjySt]

It was the best moment of my life. YEAH BUDDY.

[mallwalker123]

That's right I would not want to have joe jackson as my grandfather. I don't blame Magic for not mentioning joe name. joe jackson is a prick.

[nickstoli]

Great story, but why were they eating on the floor?

[LoboDeBayamon]

@nickstoli Cause the floor contains minerals for the body and help prevent cancer. Mother fucker what kind stupid question is that?.

[expresswhatIwant33]

Michael jackson should have adopted black children, not white.

[sweetkiss119]

@expresswhatIwant33 typical racist comment. Go back to your cave.

[musicvoho]

i thought he wrote in his book moonwalker that he was a vegetarian ... ??? im confused now but funny story

[Pencilfood]

@musicvoho He 's a vegetatian but as kfc is his favourite food.. he gotta eat chicken buddy

[Turbo200X]

Even black vegetarians can't go a week without chicken =P

[TheNewEmphinix]

I laughed at that story. lol.

[krystalgem97]

"That was the greatest moment of my life." LOL I love Magic.

[EdTV20]

LMAO RIP Mike 

[carloz957]

[SlumberCloud]

@carloz957 yes

[FootbalFutbolS0ccer]

i like mjs suit

[Carthsting]

WARMELNS

HE OSO ES WARMELNS

MJAY MAID MAI DAY

[Rios70]

so cool that Kobe and Magic Johnson are here honoring MJ....it just shows that MJ was HUGE....and here i thought Kobe and Magic were as big as it gets! they are praising MJ!

[mandy26lez]

i miss the trans fat that kfc used to have it tasted 100x better than the sludge they are serving now!

[mrbrockpeters]

Fuck yeah! KFC is fucking great!

[evry190]

That was the greatest moment of my life. < ======= bwahaahhaha

[dearestkela]

It breaks my heart how humble Michael's family seems, and how HORRIBLE they've been treated throughout two decades or more...

Seriously, on behalf of all of us, Jackson family... we're so sorry.

[21richkid]

Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, Scottie Pippen, Mike Tyson, Dwayne Johnson (The Rock), Master P., Snoop Dogg, Martin Lawrence, and Will Smith. They are all also African American or Black but did probably gave respects to Michael for the music and his great personality.

[21richkid]

No President Barack Obama, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Michael Jordan, Seal, Lennox Lewis in the funeral. Wow, that would been an honor for Michael since he influence the famous Black people.

[Bigmommacogic1]

LMAO HE DIDNT EVEN MENTION JOE JACKSON!!!!!! HA HA HA TAKE THAT JOE!!!!!

[sukhmeenk123]

Eww. Why is Kobe there? =/

[bennyfifty]

black folks like Popeyes, not KFC

[NDionneG005]

@bennyfifty Uh NUH!



[TAFFIEBARB]

he used to be a vegetarian but later on he cut himself some slack lol

[sk8ter904]

Lul niggers and their kfc :)

[sxfn15]

All this talking about KFC is making me hungry

[sxfn15]

I can understand magic but y in the world was Kobe there?

[d63sx5]

@sxfn15 having already conquered China, he's trying to win over the American market

[Flozzy1000]

I could not imagine meeting my idol and finding out they eat KFC too. It's a cute story for a somber moment. - Notice Magic didn't mention that MJ's kids would have an amazing Grandpa to take care of them? LOL

[yomelo]

check out Kobe's weird face expression at 0:08, it's fucking weird! I think he does cocaine! Those r the faces my cousin makes when he be snorting.

[yomelo]

Kobe makes the weirdest faces! Check it out, he does it in every video he's in. 

[ReeceGet2Kno]

'they will have plenty of cousins to PLAY with'. - in his mind he was thinking dirty ;). LOL R.I.P MJ STILL ALIVE IN OUR HEARTS <3. 

[Lensie1able]

of course he likes KFC, hes black;) lol good times, good times. i still dont believe hes dead though:/ sorry. still not convincing.

[mike69757]

KOBE LOOK SO GAY OMG

[AlboBmw]

As I watched MJ, I became a better astronaut.

[EdTV20]

I feel ya Michael there ain't nothing wrong with some KFC, RIP homie

[taytay1609]

This made me like KFC even more R.I.P MIKE I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!1

[wildlymissingthemark]

Magic Johnson showed true class in his remarks.

[ItsQuietIsntIt]

A guy with aids and a guy suspected of molesting children .. just sitting around eating KFC huh? Cool! It's things like this to make afraid to live life. The world is watching a victim of aids (Johnson)tell a speech about a man who is strongly believed to have been a child molester (Jackson) while a man charged with rape listens in the background (Kobe.)

[EdTV20]

@ItsQuietIsntIt shut up

[Lensie1able]

@ItsQuietIsntIt JUST PLEASE SHUT THE HELL UP!!!! thanks;)

[ItsQuietIsntIt]

@Lensie1able Len, it's a dude with aids telling a story about a pedophiliac child molester while a rapist listens. I mean the furthest I'd be from the truth in that is that I'm rid about the aids, 50/50 on the child molesting and 50/50 on the raping. No matter what I say tho, Lensie1able will always love Magic, Kobe and MJ. And believe i'm an evil person for what I've said. But it doesnt matter b/c the only one whose judgement I care about is our one and only savior! Godless u lensie!

[mikekuhn716]

really magic? THAT was the greatest moment of your life?

[sstbmadsen]

Best moment in your life Magic? What about that time you beat AIDS?

[ItsQuietIsntIt]

@sstbmadsen

nice repeating a joke you heard dick head

[Bella760205]

Notice Michael is everybody's idol? EVERYBODY says it..unbelievable.

[YerUncleKeith]

KOBE!

[thesportsmaniac23]

lmao all i can see is kobe smiling in the backround (hmmmmm chicken)

[MrTmac2423]

wait a minute michael you eat kentucky fried chicken lol magic is the truth RIP mj

[kylcam]

HAHA!! That's so awesome! What a champ, KFC. Classic :)

[RosesNightengales]

KFC is freakin awesome!

[MissKeri123]

sttin on the floor...eating a bucket of KFC...good times lol

[sugarypop15]

hahahaa

[elizaakababyd]

@DanteMcSparda naw he wasnt a vegetarian lol ... black ppl cant live with out chicken ...

[micah1116]

@elizaakababyd apparently, early in his career in the 80's he was a vegetarian from what I've heard.

[elizaakababyd]

@micah1116 i knw lol... yeah he tried ,but he said his doctor told him it was better 4 him 2 eat fish n chiken ! because in 02 he wieght like 119 now thats too skinny,he wasn't eating alot (Michael Jackson Secrect Tapes) when he talk ..but if u go to the videos on here, when he was visting his home town ..he bought his black fans some chicken n he said that was his fav...but idk sometimes it's this n that about MJ ..so u would never know the real fact

[indankse]

we eat kfc a lot here in doha.. and even in manila.. its finger lickin good!

[prnn18]

no he wasnt a vegeterian, he used to go for a vegeterian diet before his tours,he loves kfc, it was tradition for hi and his children to have kfc for every meal time when they travel.

[karolis942]

I ate KFC today ;DDD R.I.P time

[lettermanguitar]

Love this video

FRIED CHICKEN

[m3talmilitia15]

lmfao. Brilliant. Nobody revised these dumbass speeches before they were broadcast internationally promoting stereotypes?

[BonkersBonnieRed]

Anyone can put a baby in a pram, but it takes a man to be a dad.

[ganrella7908]

Gorgeous story.

[Hisdaef]

OH LAWD, DAT IZ SUM CHIKKENZ I SEE

[mudkipzonpcp]

OH LAWDY IS DAT SUM CHIKKINZ?

[fishandfestival]

This story was hilarious...Michael was known to love junk food...One of his best friends, Mark Lester, said that Michael LOVED junk food and that they often ate Pizza Hut pizza together and fish and chips whenever Michael visited London...Michael ate organic foods too, but he still loved his junk food.

[scardino82]

Hmm, well that man you speak of is also the man who decided to go to the news of the world and tell them he thinks paris is his daughter.,..

[scardino82]

Oh I see you are a reader of the tabloids...cos he said it, it must be true. Spitting image? Have you seen his daughter...the only thing in common are the blue eyes...no similarity in features whatsoever.

[scardino82]

I personally think that Paris is a very pretty girl, his daughter even at a young age just didnt have the same look.

Michael biologically probably wasn't the father but he was their dad and raised them into amazing, confident kids and that's all that matters... this guy is a disgrace to stab michael in the back like this, considering that were good friends in life..

[fishandfestival]

I agree with you partially...Yes, Michael was their dad and raised them into amazing, confident kids...But that's not all that matters...Mark Lester only came forward with this after Michael had died...Put yourself in his shoes...Paris has lost the only man she ever knew as her dad and so Mark feels the need to step in now to fulfill his role as Paris' dad...Life can change in a split second and that's what happened...Michael died and Mark saw the need to step in...He is Paris' godfather as well

[scardino82]

So if I lose my father to death, someone else can step in and become my dad?? No way. Paris only had one father and no one will EVER replace him. Not Mark - not anyone. That's not how it works in life. It's quite sad that you feel this is acceptable. He is their Godfather and can fulfill that role only. No one has the right to make claims as her father - sperm or no sperm - though I do not believe him to be Paris' father anyway. When it comes down to it, the rest doesn't even matter.

[KK872]

Oh please Mark came forward because the Jacksons were not paying him any attention. He even had his daughters on the Internet trashing Katherine. He is not Paris's father in anyway shape or forum. And no his daughter looks nothing like Paris

[5880missy]

i agree lester is just trying to get back into the spotlight!! his daughter and Paris look NOTHING alike! Michael is their biological dad they look so much like MJ!

lesters ex wife who has nothing go gain out of this mess has said when lester gave to the sperm bank he and MJ had not spoken to each other in a few years!!

lester also said he "gave" in london but Debbie and Michael both said THEIR daughter was conceived in Paris!! lester needs to get a life and leave Michaels children ALONE!!

[scardino82]

I agree with you, all these worms crawling out of the woodwork now that Michael is no longer here. It's sickening. When he was alive MArk and him were close, shared xmas' and thanksgivings, etc together...so for him to now take this stance in the national media makes me sick to my stomach. Did Michael have any real friends cos it now seems to me that those he thought were, have now proved themselves otherwise. Poor, poor michael.

[SmoothCriminalAaron]

How did you get from KFC to sperm donation???

[qtnnotti]

hahahahaha.. well asked... aaron LOL

[Marreez]

well...Michael was a vegeterian in the 80's...and I think he went back to being a vegeterian short before he died...

but it's confusing...some say that they're veggies despite that they eat fish and chicken...but you're not a 'real' veggie if you eat that so...

:')

[gummyworms18]

k. wtf how dumb can some of you fans be? to say that Prince Michael was being disrespectful by smacking his gum? you have no idea what was going through his mind at that time. he could have been chewing gum to choke back the tears. who knows? all i know is he loved his dad more than all of us mj fans put together. so do us all a favor and stop tearing him down haterz. he's got enough going on his life dont u think?

[Nyhoodie55]

I had KFC last night!... made me think of Michael!... lol

Ugh i miss him so much! God please take care of our angel Michael!... We miss him dearly!

[xcfitzx]

It's so funny how Magic didn't say anything about Joe Jackson but complemented the rest of the family. hahahaha. I dont blame him though. Joe Jackson is a dick.

[mhideos]

that was the greatest moment of my life

[royallee]

"I was scared to deaf."

Scared to deaf? Is that what you said? You are Ignorant, ignorant, ignorant.

[karolis942]

i like KFC too :D R.I.P MJJ

[TruHamo369]

KFC is he best..

everyone grow up, and if your gona be racist then don't comment. should respect that MJ is a legend. he created opportunity for others and that we don't always see, and this is what makes a great human being.

[oismackhead]

i dont understand, why was he shocked that MJ ate kfc?

he was a human being after all, just like the rest of us (even if he didnt always look like one)...

[hildelizza]

because well... me as a lot of people think that rockstars and superstars and just stars like Michael, eat this fancy and rare meals like... ostrich burgers or... i don´t know, i get Magic Johnson, i would´ve act like that too, all surprised cause MJ was eating KFC and Magic grilled chicken XD

[oismackhead]

lol i wouldnt have

i always know that celebs eat the same as the rest of us, specially when we see so many of them getting take out from mcdonalds and burger king.

and MJ was always known to have a sweet tooth, lol we forever saw him munching on some popcorn and pigging out on sweets so why couldnt he enjoy some kfc every now and again too?

[hildelizza]

yeah but MJ was not like the other celebs, was a BIT different =)

maybe what Magic meant was that HE order grilled chicken like all fancy and formal, and MJ a bucket of kfc XD aaajajaj

[oismackhead]

oh i c

yeh maybe

[NBASeason09]

you people really need to grow up and stop talking about blacks and chicken that's hella stupid the point is to remember everything michael did when he was alive don't watch is your gonna say stupid shit

[lawrencelugar]

Magic Johnson learns that Michael Jackson eats KFC, and he said :

'that was the greatest moment of my life'

learning MJ eats KFC is the greatest moment of someone's life?!

[hildelizza]

give him a break man, he was just remembering a dead friend and that´s a funny story

[MegaHeart4u]

The memorial was amazing - fit for a king.  Magic Johnson just pictured Michael as he really is - a normal nice person.

[espeonrulz]

MJ: MMMMMM I LOVE KFC HEE HEE!

[8Psmiley]

i love this story, so funny!

[morpDprime]

Oh lawd is dat sum chikins!

[TaYsTaYzFlY]

I Can't believe that they used a segment of Michael jackson's memorial to advertise KFC... thats amazing

[jennahay1986]

nice, this made me laugh!!! i think mj was taken far to advantaged off and those responsible should be prosecuted!! i know mj had a part in it, but hey, come on. the pressure of the court cases, (which they "boys"admit lying to and should be prosecuted) would take the toll on anyone!!!! RIP MJ XX

[bananabebop]

haha it made me happy when i heard that story!

[ybhbasc]

HAHAHAH Grandmother , uncles , aunts , cousins

Hhaha where's joe ?

[LexiLuther95]

I love this story!

I miss Michael. :'(

[NihilCBR]

Let's all join hands and eat fried chicken together. Only then will the world know peace.

[DUNKOFDEATH34]

how about u shut the fuck up white dickhead

[Pwned1234567891011]

Fuck you, you racist motherfucker

[psychawareness]

How the hell did Jacko make Johnson a better basketball player? That's the dumbest fucking thing I've ever heard.

He was a good entertainer. That's it. He didn't save the fucking world.

[hildelizza]

well he did a hell of a lot more than you to save it!

[psychawareness]

Okay, but he didn't save the fucking world.

[hildelizza]

he was closer than the rest of us to save it!

and he wasn´t a good entertainer, he was the best =)

[AbnormisSapiens]

Wasn't Michael a vegetarian?

[LonleyMistress]

I heard he was for a time being, and then I heard that his doctor told him to go back to eating meat. I'm not sure.; so I heard.

[AbnormisSapiens]

Yeah now I remember that too, thanks.

[JexPAuk]

What a pair of twats.Those 2 made the most of this opportunity to praise some partnership in front of the whole world.What an insult to Michael,how dared they?Those pitiful individuals make me wanna puke/We love U Michael.See U in Heaven.

[NPTJE]

1:06 Hahahahahahaha

[terra619kid]

i'm shocked to i mean micheal looked like veg eater but oh we'll that's a sign he was truly black he eats chicken but that story just makes me laugh.

[LonleyMistress]

That's a sign that he's truly black? WHat are you talking about?

[terra619kid]

people use to acquise him of not wanting to be black so they false claimed he started bleaching his skin so he can be white which was false cause he had a skin condition and plus not to be stereotypic but all black people like fried chicken.

[LonleyMistress]

I know what you meant, but I'm black and I don't necessarily like fried chicken. Besides, you forgot it's an African American stereotype. I'm Jamaican.

[LonleyMistress]

What are you supposed to be anyway terra619kid? Black or white??? I find it a offensive that you think that all black people automatically all around the world will like fried chicken.

[terra619kid]

i'm black it went to school that's all black and when we had fried chicken the lunch lady's would put a tray of chicken and the kids would run to it like it was going somewhere now i'm not trying to offend anyone here i'm just saying.

[LonleyMistress]

So you're an African American then? Well, here in the Caribbean, it is not a must that all Afro-Caribbeans like fried chicken. I think it's the same in Africa as well. Either way, whether you think all African Americans do or not just don't say it on the internet since you're feeding the white supremacist trolls, okay?

[terra619kid]

but i wasn't talking about afro carribean i know they have their own dishes i'm talking about strictly the african american people not african amercan mixed with another race that would be talking about something totally different.

[DUNKOFDEATH34]

right on brother in Africa we love chicken yes bit not all i must like fried chicken..we got a lot of dishes as well you know what i mean?

[LonleyMistress]

Yep, I know what you mean :) And I'm actually a female :P

[DUNKOFDEATH34]

oh right ma bad sorry i didnt know that ahahahah lol

[LonleyMistress]

Oh, and another thing is that I'm not very offended by your comment. I'm just concerned about you feeding the trolls and ignorant people thinking that other black people automatically fit African American stereotypes as well.

[terra619kid]

nope i never intended to do that lol i was just saying based on what i saw at school on certain days and when oprah was giving out free kfc chicken as for feeding that trolls and ignorance that was already been done by someone else who said that all black people like watermelon fried chicken and kool aid.

[LonleyMistress]

Ah. Ok. lol.

[MrROCKNBLUES79]

so Magic was impressed that Michael ate K.F.C  chicken? wow! i was impressed when i saw Hendrix play guitar, but damn michael was God, because it takes great and true talent to eat chicken... lol ... wtf is wrong with the world?

[AJohnn91]

Wait! stop!

WAS the chicken ORIGINAL RECIPE ? or EXTRA CRISPY? lol.. and whats wrong with popeyes hmm micheal????

well..is this the reason why micheals heart stopped.. all the grease from the chicken?

[goththug1488]

He is talking about the dinner he had with MJ, what else would colored folk eat for chicken. The only thing missing is watermelon and kool-aid

[junitono1]

oh lawd, sum chikkanz?

[rangel20]

I thought he was a vegetarian? Seriously, he said so in his autobiography!

[Violetfaye]

most of the music channels in the UK, that do michael jackson tributes, its supported by KFC. XD

[LuminousWorld]

lol chikinz

[ckdoll]

I love kentucky fried chicken..... lets sit down together and eat some bitch

[TNT905]

uncalled for. grow up

[Raphmattic]

i bet Kobe was thinking "i cant believe the last time i was here it was for a victory parade and now i have to stand her with joan rivers in a casket pretending to care."

[playboyisere09]

dont be racist u twa\t

[joshsimsdesigns]

wonder how much KFC paid Johnson for that. shit's shameless.

[michelstuff]

it was the greatest memorial i have ever witnessed in my life.i was lost of words.MICHAEL JACKSON WAS MY HERO,HE WILL LIVE IN MY MEMORY 4 EVER!

He is the greatest Artist of all time,no one can compare to this LEGEND of music,he is an ICON..May his soul rest in perfect peace,Amen...

i love u wacko jacko.......

michel.....

[grossijohn]

Wow! A black guy eatin KFC...what the chance of that???

[pisarnik8]

Great. But he meant that ut was great for a diff reason. If u met ur idol it wud mean hell lots to you so thats what he meant.

[DirtyDianaJackson]

He probably meant seeing him doing what he did (music) to the best of his ability made him strive to be better at what he did (basketball).

[ClanDemented]

i truly believe michael jackson made be a better point guard and better basketball player as i watched him be the greatest entertainer ever

WHAT?!

[kaimehlnickel]

of course that was the greatest moment of his life :D eating chicken with MJ, not to mention his NBA titles or dealing with AIDS :D

[kj474]

This is obviously a true story/anecdote. Look at Kobe smiling behind, he's obviously heard it before. And the family are laughing in the front row.

And if he had said "brought out a bucket of [generic] fried chicken", it doesn't quite have the same effect. people don't need to be so cynical.

[SSJ3raditz]

Chick-Fil-A >> KFC

[critia1982]

The KFC stuff is disgraceful - it was not accidentally mentioned, IT IS a commercial ! johnson was featured on KFC commercials before - the one in 1991 for 'hot and spicy' kfc is pretty much everywhere on the net

[deepsinK]

oh please you're off your rocket. Conspiracy theorist's that can never take something for face value.

[critia1982]

This sort of stuff works because of people like yourself who'd take anything at face value.
