  • sorry noone can compare to michael !!!!!!!! noone!!!!!!!!!! love you michael !!! michael makes the best songs on the world !! :) 

  • Hahahaa did you see the look MJ gave that silly man when he said "Justin Timberlake, the new Michael Jackson"?

  • I wonder if Billy Bush's suggestion, in part, led to the Thriller 25 project...with remixes of the album, and a website launch, and a DVD...hmmmm. Maybe Sony was listening. Plus, Will.I.am.played a big role in Thriller 25.

  • Michael you are so nice, you never put anyone down, you are so diplomatic sometimes I just wantyou to say"NO ONE CAN TOP ME BITCHES" but you wont.I think that one of the many things I love about you your humbleness .love you MIchael forever

  • @myheartmjj , you are soooo right with this! it´s not only his incredible talent that draws people to like him and to love him but also how he always treated people with kindness and meekness. he had all the reason "not to", but then again he always did...that`s what made and still making Michael ..."the only best " for me and to many people out there.

  • Michael is the King of Pop Forever!!1

  • I like how he mentioned usher! letting them know that he also is a great singer and dancer

    I mean dont get me wrong justin is my guy but lets not forget about usher now...lol

  • Justin Timbarlake is a joke as MJJ.

  • Justin Timberlake??? Duh!

  • Justin Timberlake is not the next MJ! It's OK for me too!

  • justin is the best now that michael is gone.. but the true king of pop is michael joseph jackson..

  • I can't stop starring at Michael's hands,, they are huugee and like, SOFT! hehe

  • HELL TO THE NO JUSTN TIMBERLAKE CANT COMPARE TO MICHAEL JACKSON HE"S NOT EVEN ON MICHAEL"S LEVEL HE DNT EVEN SING ANYMORE HE HAVENT EVEN MADE A NEW SONG SINCE 2006!!!!!!!! SO HOW THE HELL IS HE THE CLOSES THING TO MICHAEL TODAY???????

  • I'm glad that they made the focus of this interview the music and nothing else :)

  • Justin Timberlake will never be likr Michael Jackson the KING OF POP!!! ILOVE YOU MJ

  • JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE is the closest thing to MICHAEL JACKSON? I mean, don't get me wrong, I like JT...but he is no MJ. The comparison is LAUGHABLE. You might as well just say there is nobody out there currently who could touch MJ. Don't bring up Justin Timberlake. PLEASE. He just ruined one of the last interviews with Michael. Grr.

  • Every single pop artist today is just trying to be like Michael :D

    he is the best forever! we love you mike! :).

  • what the fuck is with the interviewer..jt closest thing to mike?? if i was mike..id laugh bcoz if i was as big as him..my ego wud smash all boundaries..yet he was so humble..he was 2 nice a person for this world..hope he is happy where he is now

  • I just want Michael back.

  • you'll see him again when u get to beulah ;land! so be patient and wait

  • Such a refined man

  • i think he doesn't like to hear

    that justin is the closest thing to him

    i think he doesn't like anyone to be the closest thing to him ! xD

    and i can't blame him :D

    No one is 'a closest thing' to the one and only MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!!! :-D

  • aww i remember watching this, michael we love you i wish you could come back to us. it's not fair *cries*

  • justin is the closest thing to michael??

    XDXDXDXD

    YEAH more like the closest thing into his own personal copycat...or at least that's what's he's trying to be...WANNABE!

    JT should stop copying michael and get a style of his own...

  • "What's the price of this?"

    "Six thousand dollars"

    "Wooow.. :O"

    He's so cute

  • great interviewer!!!

    take note diane bitch sawyer.

  • Michael looks as tho hes nodding to what will i am is saying about how great an inpration MJ is to everyone and young artists nearly everyone is inpereid by his music

  • way to go will i am, yes your right michael was and will always be the best.

  • i havent figured out how to get this stuff yet, i would love to have something for my son for christmas, were having a pretty rough time this year, i wouldnt care if i got anything or not as long as he could get something, oh, has anyone ever heard of marlow tackett, they call him the mountain santa clause, he has a big christmas party every year for the needy, my son and i if our health will allow us to are going to volunteer, if the doctors wont let us then we are going to donate for mjs luv

  • As a Lover of Sound myself, it's easy to see why Thriller was such a success. Back then, people were still uneasy about what synthesizers were doing to Music. At this point, people thought of synthesized sounds as sacrilege to Classical, Rock & Orchestral Music. But then came Thriller that was designed to be different, & the sounds were crafted purely for MJ's style. It was Funk, Soul & rock in one with pioneered new sounds, Great Story telling & Michaels Melodic Lyrics/singing. How cud it fail!

  • He loves cameras.

  • LMAO, oh god I love Michael lol

  • Lol... JT was doing his thing back then, but man that is no comparison... Wow I loved the look on MJ's face as soon as JT's name was mentionned...LOL!

  • everything was going smoothly until he mentioned justin lol. what dumbfuck hahahaha

  • JT is the close one to Micheal?!

    I would say this guy really doesn't know what he's talking about. Its like saying a little kitten is close to a lion. lol

  • oh god. how can justin freakin timberlake be anywhere close to what MJ is/was/and always be? the greatest entertainer of all time?

    sometimes i dont understand why they compare justin to MJ at all. imo, no one will ever come close to what Michael was/stood for. he was the greatest.  someone with abilities and accomplishments that no other will ever surpass. MJ is definitely the last musical legend. eveything nowadays is mediocre and it pisses me off. music will not be the same with MJ.

  • Listen to this ass-backwards nut saying Justin Timberlake of ALL people was MJ's greatest aspiration. Justin can't even touch Michael with a stick the same diameter of this entire planet.

    If anyone Usher and Chris Brown deserves that.

    After that Super Bown incident w/ Janet, I'm embarrassed for him, especially after that look Michael gave him. And he calls himself a journalist/anchorman?

    Please.

    For the record with the King gone, the industry is dead. I Thank God for records.

  • JT cannot even touch MJ with a pole longer than the Earth is wide.

  • Ok, did anyone just Michael's reaction when the guy said that Justin was the closest thing to Michael Jackson today at 2:36  LOL! Priceless! And Michael was immediately mentioned Usher and said "it's very nice" hahaha

  • lol i was just about to say that - 'did you see the way MJs face dropped when he said justin was the next MJ'

    lol he probably thought 'there will NEVER be another MJ - how dare you'!!!

  • Also, I think Justin wasn't Michael's favorite especially after that whole superbowl incident with Janet and how Justin said it wasn't him and that it was all her fault.

  • yeah something definitely happened between those two. i remember they used to be so close at one point, when Justin was starting as a solo artist he would talk about MJ ALL THE TIME and was all hugs whenever they performed together yet when he died he never said a word of condolence or even seemed remotley sad

    such a loser. try all you want JT - you will never even get close to being as famous as our MJ!

    some people are just born legends, you are not some people. lol sorry i had to rant

  • wait did mj and the guy from black eyed peas every weite songs. r they on t-tunes or something???

  • yes...kinda...tracks on his 25th anniversary thriller album..."the girl is mine" and "wanna be startin' somethin'" w/ akon... he also did "beat it" w/ frgie and "billie jean" w/ kanye west...and trust me the only one worth listening as a remix is beat it cuz mj's voice matches fergie's...and ok the "wbss" is nice but mj isn't singing in it so...

    there nothing more awesome than the original songs...u listen 2 them and u say f*** man this like 25 years ago? no way! they rock!!!

    mj rules!!!!

  • yeah man he participate in the thriller 25 album and did covers and the girl too (forgot her name) she sings billie jean LOL

  • Wow what a funny question. Justin has never released music that even comes close to Thriller. What is this reporter talking about?

  • SuperEcoGirl you're right, Justin never released any music that came even close not just to thriller but all the albums he had since he was in the Jackson 5 to Invincible. That's how is the gap between MJ and JT which will never be filled until the end of the world.

  • Nice he mentioned Usher. Justin is a nothing compared to Usher.

  • God bless Michael. If I was MJ and that guy compared me to Justin Timberlake I would have been like wtf are you nuts? <3

  • justin timberlake doesnt compare!!!

  • Check Michael reaction when that guy telling him that Justin is the closest thing to him, look closely the way his head leaning forward as if he was thinking, is this guy serious? then he had that little grin, and after that the guy look around as if he was trying to see if someone was with him, but guess what "NO".

    Was this guy on something or what, to ask these kind of questions???

  • 29phineas,

    I totally agree with you. I notice Michael's reaction. Is funny that this guy thinks Justin comes close to Michael. He must have been high or something. lol

  • i think he regreted making that question after...he was probably hiting his head of the wall after the interview...but he had to ask sth and since jt was dating the princess of pop he made the connection princess-prince-king and asked...but seriously now if we compare them... michael is sitting alone in A-class and all the others are like trying to get in the economy class ...but it isn't working...it's still too close to michael...

  • Michael Jackson will always be imitated, but he will NEVER be duplicated.

    You can bet your bottom dollar on that.

    Like James Brown said at the 2003 BET awards, ''God bless the child with his own steps.''

    Rock the Heavens Mike!

  • I completely agree. I noticed that too!

  • Sympa merci,

    c'est possible d'avoir la traduction?

    RIP MJ.

  • I think Michael wants to laugh when he says Justin Timberlake but he's too nice to be mean I can see him grin lol.

  • Michael ist großartig, immer sehr fein, freundlich, total sympatisch, respektvoll... er sit einfach der Beste! KING OF POP! I LOVE YOU MICHAEL JACKSON FOREVER!

  • his voice is relatively low here!

  • Why does Justin inspire by Mike?

    I don't see any similar aspects of that.

    Is the dancing or music???

  • probably his popularity

  • Toycommander,

    His popularity? Are you joking or what? Michael Jackson is the most popular singer, and dancer in the world! In every part of the world people know Michael Jackson but no Justin. Sorry not even close. I think Michael was just being nice.

  • are you kidding me?

    Justin Timberlake, Chris Brown Usher you name it etc.

    are almost products from Michael Jackson.

    They took his pattern and are following it.

    and whats more intresting are.

    they devoloped his dancing, and dances in similiar style.

    You can see how many dancesteps Chris Brown took from MJ in all of his videos.

  • LOLZ.

    Cos I don't often listen to both their songs, I don't know much about how they imitate Mike.

    But recently I saw Justin's video but don't like them at all... lmao.

    Mike is the best of the best !!!

  • Well, but I think if someone would come up with something new than the KING would be dethronemented.. It's humanly impossible to make up something new cuz MJ found out everything that you could or even couldn't ever imagine.... But I must say if someone is the closest to Michael that is not JT, waaaay not 'boxer' CB, but Usher... he has the soul but I'd like to see him doing more staff for people, not just writing love songs..I think that's what famous ppl. should do!

  • es un thriller thriller al nignt.

  • i learn the coreografy de mickeal jackson is to creative. por sus pasos me lo aprendi thank you mickel jackson

  • Justin - albeit a nice artist is speck of dirt compared Michael Jackson.

    We miss you MJ!

  • that was kind of disrespectful,Justin uhhh no 'lol'

  • Calm down people. The interviewer was obviously joking when he said Justin Timberlake

  • stop the argueing, read up your history on michael jackson! and you will know there will never be anyone ever like him, no-one can move, sing, hit the notes he does, dance, facial expresions.. etcc,, what other FAMOUS person gets people fainting at just one look of them, gets people holding onto a moving car, suicidal..etc,, michael jacksonn even hes name is amazing end of story! noone will have as much love and excitment as that man, youtube the mj fans.. no other ppl like US in the world,

  • Justin Timberlake. . . . how does he even come close to Michael Jackson? I mean, I don't even understand the comparison. It's appaling. It's undermining Michael's accomplishments and his artt and creative nature. To me, JustinTimberlake is just a mediocre pop star who's more ambitious than is artistic. Who's more desperate for fame than creativity.

  • maybe usher not justin

  • What an insult!! Justin Timberlake is not the next MJ. Justin Timberlake dances to CHOREOGRAPHY very well. I'm glad MJ added Usher - because if there was ever someone close to MJ - which there will never be - it would be Usher - not JT.  Usher would crush JT in singing AND dancing.

  • Its just a self fulfillment statement that white folks like to say - and believe in their heads just to make themselves feel good. Its retarded and a joke when they make such statements or even make that comparison.

  • JT is just some silly comedian who can sing. He's a fly in Michael Jackson's ear.

  • YES! Usher is the only person out there that's anywhere near to Michael Jackson...and that other dude...am ...oh yes, Chris Brown...he's good too

  • @GinaMasera

    Not Usher not Justin Timberlake, Michael is unique!

  • lmfao and the funny thing is that justin timberlake "stole" like 90 songs from MJ xD ofc theyre alike x)

  • DITTO! on MJ...justin hell no,

    not even close...there will never be another MJ.... RIP

  • what's the name of the song at 1:52? ( RIP MJ )

  • eire........

  • he's so nice and seemed like a great person all around. The world lost a great person as well as a great entertainer.

  • Justin Timberlake? I don't think so.

  • Michael was so pure and innocent and that's exactly why he was targeted. I think the media destroyed him for the sake of ratings, promotions, and money....and Michael will be exploited long after his death...for many many years...Michael was an original and died an original " You were born an original, don't die a copy." --John Mason

  • michael seems off in this.  his energy is very different.

  • it said in the beginning that he was careful with his words. didn't see him much after the trial and stuff. I don't think he wanted that much attention on himself. He didn't want to say anything to get people talking about him like "ooh Michael." Not yet. He's always been careful and open when he has to be.

  • God, Justin Timberlake close to Michael. Give me a f**king break. Justin TimberFAKE is a queer!

  • Micheal Jackson has no equals....he's the greatest, There are few names that come even close...don't think about names like Chris Brown ore Usher, I'm talking about James Brown. Tina Turner, David Bowie, Ray Charles, Elthon John, Freddie Mercury, you know, the big ones. Micheal was even above them.

  • I wonder if they will ever release the new music he was working on. I'm sure it is spectacular

    RIP Michael...you will be dearly missed

  • he did actually release it....it's a cd that celebrates 25 years of thriller....it's really cool

  • 1:18

    whats that song called????

    rip

  • I know how he feels about the physical and mental pain that elizabeth taylor said he had.

  • R.I.P. KING!

  • rip

  • r.i.p michael, you were truley the best

  • I almost gagged when I heard this dickless interviewer compare Justin Timberlake to Michael Jackson. Wow. RIP MJ

  • i can't believe he isn't here

  • ah the old days

  • RIP a legend

  • RIP Mr.Jackson King of Pop

  • R.I.P mj....

  • Sure he was different..... but the world treated him soooo badly. now he is gone; the world should say sorry...

  • R.I.P. MJ

  • i loved it when he was talking about justin he immediatley said usher after that man think about it usher and michael on concert what could of been

  • R.I.P

  • rest in peace michael!

    Prince ur the only legend left!

  • Big Big loss

  • A sad day. R>I>P> MJ ☮ Walton S. Tissot wrote a poem about Micheal today called Michael Jackson. Walton is an amazing poet. just google Walton S Tissot

  • RIP michael jackson

  • R.I.P

  • thriller 109 million sales. and still counting

    i love it

  • i love michael. isn't he so beautiful? :D.

  • i love u michael, ur sooo hot!! :)

  • Oh (Delfino) po-tu-gal!! can't 4get!

    FAVORITE TO WATCH !

  • nice voice michael

  • Entertaning !!! :)

  • i LOVE MJ!!!!!!!

  • the greatest performer of our times and this bustard can barely speak, how ironic is that

  • Not even close......not even Eminem

    though he is the selling legend in hip hop, who sold 75 mil copies worldwide all together for his 4 albums, but Michael Jackson swept that off with 1 album, Thriller.........

    I think the thing that is killing music is the computer and the internet, and of course the people. that's y Eminem or Justin Timberlake, or anyone's hot in the music industry can't sell like what Michael did in the 80s and the early 90s

  • Id love it if Michael did more songs with a "rock" sort of sound to them.

    like Dirty Diana, D.S, Give In To Me, Black Or White, Privacy, Come Together.

  • Noone is close to Michael! Hes the dominater of music!

  • i dont know were people get off calling him crazy he seems pretty normal to me

  • I bet Justin will never be close to MJ's success ever forever!

  • I agree! Nobody can beat him!

  • I don't like Justin Timberlake, at all...

  • i love mj's innocent laugh!

  • justin is NOTHING compared to Michael, justin sucks!

  • haha yeah right justin timberlake is nothin i mean nothin compared to michael no offense to justin i like him but still come on.

  • XD justin timberlake is really good with music... lol the beats and rithm xD just saying im not even fan of him but just tellin you all XD greetz from netherlands

  • he is such A KID loooooool

    but a master in music

  • nothing beats the original so beat it jt in ur dreams...mjj all the way hes the best.

  • 1hitwoon I agree he has no talent. what do you think of the so called colaboration?

  • so true! Michael is the biggest inspiration to all of them, that's the point, he created the best dance, the best music, the best performance, they are his disciples.

  • "Mike is in his own class" So true!! There is no one who will ever get close to his success, but I really don't think that Justin Timberlake is closest..

    I love you Michael Jackson <3

  • i also think the same justin timberlake cannot come closer even in 10000 years

    micky we all love u from bottom of our heart

  • he is sweat....

    he just can't stop dancing

  • He really good play the music.. I dreaming about his new CD and U kon, clip x)) but.. que sera sera.. what will be will be.. ;))

  • he is so kind. michael youre so humble. you inspired most musicians today! you are the greatest.

  • I love the way Michael says Us HER, it's so cute!! He pronounces it his own way.

  • Justin or any other entertainer will never even step in the same realm of MJ he is in his own dimension as KING OF ENTERTAINMENT ^_^

  • usher, chris brown, justin timberlake...they all tie in terms of how awful they are. just one mans opinion of course.

  • ooo michael really didn't like him saying that justin is the closest thing to him today. You could tell by his expression, he did not like being compared to justin. Micahel is a millllllion times better than justin, to even compare the too or put them both in one sentence is disrepectful to michael

  • Mike's voice sounded so deep when he said "Yeah, yeah u r " so sweet

    Justin can kiss Mike's ass

  • Michael has to make sure he keeps his status of king and stop being inspired by imitators. He changed music and the stuff the do today is so repetitive and that is because Michael hasn't been around to make music history over and over again. I know that he comes back music will change again and I am soooo ready for a change. Michael your throne is getting dusty sit on it, it's your after all.

  • OMG MICHEL, WE AWAIT YOU FOR MORE AWESOME MUSIC!!!! YOU ROCK MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!! No matter what people say or do to MJ HE WILL ALWAYS BE THE KING OF POP!!!! You'd have to be a moron to deny his talent and accuse him with fucking lies!!!

  • lol...Michael was just being 'nice' about Justin I;m sure!lol

  • i wish he didn't give the idea of t25, i would rather see over 10 new songs by mj then 6 by different artists and michael says 3 or 4 new words in wanna be startin' somethin'

  • i'm obsessed with michael jackson

  • Micheal jackson is a legend, its a shame that the media/press is always out to slander him.

  • world tour world tour world tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Justin, usher??? They are NOTHING compared to Michael.

    Love you always Michael!

  • will's totally right. like star wars zapped cinema and opened up an endless number of possibilities in the seventies, something (or someone) is going to revive our fallen music industry.

  • Can't wait for Michael's new album

  • justin t my ass

    he sucks

  • da interviewer has got some bloody cheek

    'justin timberlake is the closet thing to michael jackson today'

    i should kick his stupid arse, no one will be close to michael ever! mj i love you xxx

  • I LOVE Michael Jackson, God knows I do...but why is he working with shitty artists?

  • JT is suuuucks beside the Legendary Michael Joseph Jackson...let's admit almst everyone does :D MJ is the KING!

  • I had a guy cleaning my washroom call Justin

  • music sucks now. i wish there was a golden age, but our generation just sucks.

  • wth is up with jt, thats rite baby say usher jt aint nobody michael dont believe dat crap

  • justin the closest thing?! no WAY

    usher, yes, chris brown, yes

    but will-i-ams beat sucked.

  • MICHEL JOSEPH JACKSON?? the king of music and dance! the best ever and forever.

  • lool Justin who? Will what ?

    he should work with real musicans

  • I wouldn't call Justin a musician, and all those new stars of his kind. But if u look at Justin, Usher, Beyonce, Chris Brown, "the old" Britney... they all actually are the world's most famous MJ FANS. Not even close to Michael but they DO give him the credit for creating THEM.

    But Will is a real musician. Trust Michael's choice. You can't say he has no talent it's just stupid.

  • OMG!!! you are the only one who sees things from my point of view. I have the same feelings when it comes to him using the "artists" he's used for Thriller 25.

    He's selling out. It's sad.

  • well he has to have some talent

  • good point but there must be sumthin gd about him if the king of pop choose him himself

    mj rocks!

  • He has talent!

  • Justin my ass.. lol.

    Not even close to MJ status..

  • LMAO...Michael was being polite...did you see his smile? lol! Justin's a joke!

  • seriouly! i mean he's good but not THAT good. I was reading Fashion Rocks Magazine recently and they acutally called JT the 'New King of Pop'!?!?!?!? i couldnt believe it.
