MJ Quotes
Fred Astaire
You are a hell of a mover. Man you really put them on their asses last night.
You're an angry dancer. I'm the same way. I used to do the same thing with my
cane...You're a hell of a mover!
Brandy
Michael Jackson, he is just like; he is the king of it all. Everything that
everyone's doing now, he's already done. He's opened a lot of doors for a lot of
artists today.
Garth Brooks
With that numbers stuff [record sales], you just have to take it with a grain of
salt. Yeah, you feel proud, but the true guy in you has to say 'Come on ...
You're not really on the level of the Beatles.' For me as a fan ... the Beatles,
Michael Jackson, you can stick Elvis Presley in there, James Taylor, Billy Joel
and 100 more guys in there that I think are on a level Garth will never get to
'cause I'm such a huge fan of these people.
Ice Cube
[About the 'Thriller' video:] I was glued, I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
I would just sit there and wait days and days and days to see the "Thriller"
video again. I couldn't wait to see it again from start to finish.
Missy Elliot
I don't look at it as he is not the hottest thing any more - I look at what he's
done as a groundbreaking artist who opened a lot of doors for black acts.
Michael Jackson is still amazing to me.
M.C. Hammer
Just a phenomenal artist, the [word] speaks for itself. You don't go much beyond
Michael Jackson when it comes to performing and making good records.
Janet Jackson
Some days ago he had someone send me an enormous basket, full of candles (he
does it all the time) with, in the middle of it, two magnificient dogs. It was
adorable! We have been brought up like that: We are trying to find our places
but we adore each other.
Prince
Asked by a reporter if he could take Michael Jackson in a fistfight Prince
laughed and quipped "Michael's not a fighter, he's a lover." (which refers to a
verse from the Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney hit duet 'The Girl Is Mine'
from 'Thriller'.)

Michael is fantastic. I love him. He is a great artist, one of the greatest
entertainers I've ever seen.
Jessica Simpson

other day. Michael Jackson would be the ultimate.
