One Of Michael Jackson's Accusers Made This Alarming Allegation Concerning Britney Spears...

"Michael had some sort of obsession with Britney..."

Part two of HBO’s Leaving Neverland documentary, which explores the child sexual abuse allegations of late pop star Michael Jackson, aired on Monday night (March 4), bringing the four-hour film to its close.

Told from the perspectives of two of MJ’s accusers, Wade Robson and James Safechuck, the men made some of the disquieting allegations in the first half of the documentary. Robson and Safechuck walk viewers through the several instances of alleged molestation, efforts of isolation from their parents and brainwashing tactics they claim that Jackson subjected them to from as young as 7 years old. They both alleged that the abuse continued into their teenage years, running parallel to the takeoff of Robson’s dance and choreography career. The 36-year-old, who met Jackson as a small, aspiring child dancer, eventually went on to rise in Hollywood’s stage performance and dance circle as a teen and behind the likes of pop’s biggest stars at the time. But Robson claimed his ties with MJ weren’t completely cut during this period either, and the music legend took on a peculiar interest in his relationship with one of his A-list clients: pop sweetheart Britney Spears.

  • Robson explained that Spears hired him as a choreographer on her first commercial tour

    He later worked with the “Oops…I Did It Again” pop star for the next few years, even leading choreography for her 2001 Super Bowl Halftime debut. He alleges that MJ would frequently reach out to him with specific questions about her despite their allegedly sexual relationship being over with. “Michael had some sort of obsession with Britney,” Robson claims in the documentary. “And he would call me, and he would want to know what it was like working with her, what she was like and, ‘Isn’t she sexy, isn’t she beautiful?’” 

  • He continues explaining that Jackson would request that Robson connect him with her

    During these conversations, Robson additionally alleged that MJ took on a specific interest in his sexual connections with women.  

    “I remember that being just really weird considering Michael and I’s whole sexual history,” Robson alleged. He doesn’t elaborate on whether he granted Jackson’s wishes in introducing the two pop star talents, however. Nonetheless, Jackson would go on to duet with Spears in 2001 for his 30th anniversary special and bump industry elbows with the pop singer thereafter.
