Macaulay Culkin has always insisted that Michael Jackson never sexually abused him.
However, James Franco — who admitted he’s been guilty of sexual misconduct after multiple victims went public and is also a pal of spirit cooking Satanic Witch Marina Abramovic — tried to get Culkin to comment on Leaving Neverland and the pedophile allegations against Jackson and an infuriated Culkin told him off.
“Here’s a good Michael Jackson story that doesn’t involve Michael Jackson at all: I ran into James Franco on a plane,” Culkin told Esquire in 2020.
“I’d bumped into him two or three times over the years.
I give him a little nod as we’re putting our bags overhead.
Hey, how you doing? Good, how ya doing? And it was right after the Leaving Neverland documentary came out, and he goes, ‘So, that documentary!’
And that was all he said. I was like, ‘Uh-huh.’ Silence. So then he goes, ‘So what do you think?’
And I turned to him and I go, ‘Do you wanna talk about your dead friend?’ And he sheepishly went, ‘No, I don’t.’ So I said, ‘Cool, man, it was nice to see you.’”
Culkin continued: “Look. I’m gonna begin with the line—it’s not a line, it’s the truth: He never did anything to me.
I never saw him do anything. And especially at this flash point in time, I’d have no reason to hold anything back. The guy has passed on.”
Culkin added: “If anything—I’m not gonna say it would be stylish or anything like that, but right now is a good time to speak up.
And if I had something to speak up about, I would totally do it. But no, I never saw anything; he never did anything.”
