Tracy Lee that’s because he was raped in the ass when he was a child in real. I read about it. So he really was able to portray Michael well since Weaver had Been raped in the ass in real life as a child.

People like yo point out the negative and faults of a people. nevamind all the good things they bring to society huh.

I got a sister with special needs..and MJ just popped up in her school unannounced in Cleveland..made my sister and all the children so happy..she has a picture and autograph of him to this day..he was a blessed soul..f the haters..MJ was a God sent..
@@happy_clifford yea..it really changed her life..and he didn't say nothing about it..a lot people thought it was a look alike..till it was on the news that he was in town..he stays hours and took personal pics with everyone and signed up..very great guy..
It bothers me too Jason. MJ deserves all the respect in the world. He was a wonderful human being and a once in a lifetime talent!! He deserves to be remembered for the extraordinary music he gave to the world, and his incredible humanitarian work.
The FBI investigated him for 10 years and found absolutely no evidence to prove these allegations. It's only for money. One of the men accusing Michael attempted to work for his estate two years ago and even dated Michael's niece. Doesn't add up to me.
TRUTH!!!! That’s because they took their time with telling the stories. They could do a part two of the Jackson picking up the very next year where the first movie ends because that’s when Janet started recording the Control album
Its PLAIN to see 👀 that the REAL REASON Jason isnt as big as he SHOULD BE is because the industry couldn't abuse him...Jasons mother is a REAL MOTHER and didnt leave her child in the hands of the industry...PERIOD...much respect to his mother for protecting her child..and much love to Jason for NOT sacrificing his mother for a "Happy Meal"...Jason will ALWAYS HAVE the favor of the Most High
Nooo I don't want you I don't want you I don't want you I don't want you I don't want you no mo. Trust me Katie. I'll never hurt you. I'll never do anything to hurt you! Pulls the picture off the wall and it cracks. Angela did that part. That's my favorite part by the way!!😁😀😀😀💜💜👊🏾👊🏾
We're so sorry for that loss🙏🙏 how was he as a person? I've always wondered Bc it was a very long time before I knew that he passed away. He would've been a big Hollywood star
Terika Thomas He was super cool. That was the only role he ever played. We used to call him MJ when we were growing up. He was soft spoken, very nice, and loved dancing. I still remember him like yesterday. It doesn’t even feel like 26 years have passed since his passing. His daughter is about 28 now.
I love the vocals he did on Chingy’s “One call away” song. I was always wondering why he never became a singer as well as an actor. He is a phenomenal singer.
3rika 112 He had a 2nd album in 1996 that Motown never released. It had bangers on it too. Most of it you can find on RUclips. The albums Titled “Stay With Me”. “Dance With Me” is his best song #IMO check it out.
Brendolyn Taylor there are many men & women around the world who stop maturing physically I sum or many ways. It is something out of they’re control. Why criticize someone over something they have no control of?
He could or probably does animated voices. I heard a lot of actors do well with that. I like his voice & he sounds so articulate I love talking to men like him.
Articulate, intelligent, interesting and talented young man. Doesn't appear to have been caught up with the demonic dealings of Hollywood. Remain humble and keep persevering God got you. I pray for your increase and your capacity to handle the increase.
One of favorite scenes in the movie is when Jason snaps his head back like Michael singing "I wanna be where you are" after being forced to fly on the airplane. His depiction of Michael is on the level of Jamie Foxx depicting Ray Charles, Leon as David Ruffin, Angela Bassett as Tina Turner & the list goes on & on...
Michael Jackson is that type of genius that only evil people can really hate on him for doing so much good for the world. And no matter if you believe Jesus existed or not he too was heavily criticised and publicly lynched.
@MPSecare yea but most historians agree he was a real person. Now whether he was "God" is a religious matter not mine. i can bring up some studies and links based on this research if you like?
@MPSecare I've been to the Holy Land the people there can tell you that historically there was a man name Yeshua (Jesus), who lived, was a Jewish Rabbi, and he was crucified (Pontias Pilate was the one who ordered it).
This has to be one of the best interviews I've seen yet! You can hear the happiness in his voice when he spoke about getting the Michael Jackson role. May God continue to bless him and his career!
I was JUST listening to him sing “Reach out and touch” with Holly Robinson on The Jackson’s American Dream. Jason Weaver is an underrated star, and his voice was solid!
Jason Weaver is probably the ONLY child that could’ve played MJ. Did he look like MJ? No. Did he sound like MJ? Yes. Did he play him well? Hell yes! The fact the REAL one approved is a wonderful thing. Getting teary hearin that part. It was a very memorable role. I love the fact that his voice at 40, still sounds like the way he did durin the film. Maybe an octave lower. Ha.
Tania Jones The one thing he had that was very important, was the voice and sweetness in his eyes. MJ as a child had somethin in his eyes that made u fall in love with him. You’re right. He was just darker. I don’t think anyone could’ve looked EXACTLY like MJ as a child. Impossible task.
This was a dope interview. Always loved the miniseries and its cool to hear the behind the scenes. Sidenote: I hope u can also interview Countess Vaughn on the channel. I would love to hear her story.
@@agapeluvMy boy you get hand picked by Michael Jackson and the family out of every other kid your age...that's like you attending your favorite sport player camp or something and he points at you and say your next.....that's a automatic career starter plus he was the voice in Lion King.....2 iconic roles in 2 of the most historical movies in history...the only movie of the Jackson 5 and who hasn't seen or doesn't know about Lion King
Ciaobella Amour lol. I think they can both exist in this space. I like Comedy Hype for the rarity of the guests and the concise stories. It’s up close and personal - literally and figuratively. Vlad spends more time with his guests so he can go into more detail. With Jason, I wouldn’t mind hearing more details like A-Z with lion king. That could be a 2-3 part series alone.
He did a excellent job playing our young king of music Michael Jackson that movie is my favorite I watched it ever Saturday night with my sister that how much we love the movie.
@Razh 80 they didn't screw him over for the talking role...they already hired the kid on Home Improvements show..and I'm guessing at that time since the show was popular on tv..they kept him for the voice and of course you hear Jason's voice!..He sang in that movie and still making money off the movie and soundtrack His mother was in the business so she handled his contract..
Jason Weaver nailed that role as the young MJ in "The Jacksons: An American Dream" series!! I love how humbly and respectfully he still shows Mike the utmost respect & gratitude for the opportunity to play him. ❤👏🏽
The Jacksons movie was good back in the day. But when I try to watch it now the actin sucks.( except Angela Basset and the dude that played Joe Jackson)
Excellent interview. Mr Weaver, very articulate, astute, he didn't allow the interviewer to lead him down the rabbit hole of "Micheal Jackson's" Legal woes. Mr. Weaver, is definitely a stand up guy and professional.
I've always loved Jason Weaver! Being from the south suburbs of Chicago,I think he reps The Chi well! He's a great actor & singer. Love Ambition is still my joint!
This interview made me respect Jason Weaver even more than I already have much respect for him showing his appreciation for what Michael Jackson did for him & his family & not following the so called trend to believe the ignorant lies about Michael & not disrespecting him & being ungrateful like the other children & families he helped that ended up hurting & lying on him for absolutely nothing but just showing genuine love & caring
Even though Michael Jackson was a handsome man,he was very humble and never thought he looked good enough. And the reason for all the plastic surgery,lighter skin,etc. He had a skin condition called vitiligo where the person gets white patches all over the body.
Yeah that’s why I hate when people make fun of him because he most likely had a mental disorder of some kind. He just couldn’t see himself as beautiful at all. There’s literally a condition ( I don’t know the name of it) where people just can’t see themselves as anything other than ugly.
Michelle where did I say vitiligo is a mental disorder? When did I say that? Did you even bother to read what I actually said? I never said vitiligo was a mental disorder. I think for someone to go to the extremes Michael did to change his physical appearance (not including his skin color) he or she has to be suffering from something. Even if it’s something like addiction. Which is a mental disorder by the way. Maybe Michael got addicted to surgery plastic surgery. I really think he had to be suffering from something to keep getting those surgeries. His skin color has nothing to do with what I’m talking about.
I love how Jason gave the honor that was due to true icon ; the late great Micheal Jackson . To the ones that still work feverishly to bring down his name 'shame on you! '
I love Comedy Hype! These Jason Weaver interviews are the shit!🔥 I love long interviews and learning the details and stories of these entertainers, keep it up bro💯
Say GOD! Much RESPECT for you and this channel! We need our own speaking to our own! Appreciate you asking real questions, and allowing them to answer in their on voices! No agenda, no digging for dirt, and no leading for gossip! Keep doing it! B1
Not too many people can play Michael but he played the hell out of a young Michael Jackson. Goosebumps every time I see Jason Weaver in the booth singing I’ll be there.
HOUR:N9NE I’d love to see that happen but realistically this is moreso a comedy channel so he’s not going to get content from the diff avenues as a Vlad but I’m sure the respect of our culture would truly remain in tact if this guy had it. I can’t stand Vlad’s culture vulture ass.
So well-spoken and articulate, very knowledgeable over the industry... I've always wanted to see more of him acting, and not in the cliche "hood" movies...to see him on some drama series would be nice
I am humbled by the sheer gratitude that Jason displays for the blessing he received from the world's most brilliant musical icon; what impressed me most is he REFUSED to piss on the person who blessed him....
I hope this sht lasts thru the rest of the year like in December will be: (Part 156) Jason Weaver explains how he killed that hook on Chingy One Call Away song. 😂😂💯💯🔥
Awesome interview, as usual. Jason is a very wise, upstanding, and talented man. Yet he's still grounded, genuine, and humble. And best of all, he has spiritual knowledge and wisdom as well 👍🏾
I remember when i use to go to Morris Brown College in Atlanta back in 2001 and while they were filming Drum Line i went to my Broadcasting Class and Jason Weaver was in there dropping gems on us and i remember him saying in the next few years Atlanta will be the next Hollywood.
He played Michael Jackson better than anybody even though it was young Michael!! Legend
Yes he did. Love that movie I was 10 when that move came out. And now my kids watch it.my daughter is 15 and she is a michael fan and dance like him in talent talent shows .so proud of her . She hates the rumors and her friends make fun of her cause her favorite is Michael .she got the rock with you photo when he was in the silver glitter outfit on .on her screen saver on her phone.
She constantly have to defend his honer to her friends. I tell her dnt worry about wat they say. So petty tho.but she dnt care she still love him no matter wat they say. Love you michael.
Don't forget about the guy who play Adult Michael he did an also job too R.I.P. to him.

Jason is one if the BEST child stars of the 90s. Period. He has also done great work as an adult. He is a wise man.
My cousin Wiley Draper also played Michael Jackson (teenage and adult Michael) in The American Dream. Sadly he passed away from Leukemia in 1993.
IFE MusicGroup TV I remember him.. Rest in Heaven
He was such a good Michael.

My dad met Jason Weaver at a restaurant in ATL a while ago. They ended up having drinks and hung out. He's a really cool dude.
I'm digging these interview segments with Jason 👍🏽
Me too man and it's really cool getting in depth and watch him talk about his success with his acting career and music.
Exactly
@Razh 80 right me too and he had so much going on for him back then and still does til this day.
A child star that has aged with grace/wisdom! Seems like a really level-headed guy. ❤️ from the Chi.
I love the vocals he did on Chingy’s “One call away” song. I was always wondering why he never became a singer as well as an actor. He is a phenomenal singer.
3rika 112 he released one album during his teen years. I wish he made an album as an adult especially during the chingy era
Love Ambition was one of his biggest hits. He has done alot of acting... Jackson's biopic, Smart guy tv show, the movie Drumline..
He also sang as Simba on Lion king
Jesus lol i forgot about that

DAMN Momma Weaver BE ON IT FOR HER SON!!! I LOVE IT!! Very Respectful of Michael Jackson. #Props
Id like to hear him sing again... He still has a youthful speaking voice
Me too. We need new music. He would do alot for today's r&b.
This dude need to get a male voice he sounds like a cartoon character or something got damn !!!!!!
Brendolyn Taylor there are many men & women around the world who stop maturing physically I sum or many ways. It is something out of they’re control. Why criticize someone over something they have no control of?
He could or probably does animated voices. I heard a lot of actors do well with that. I like his voice & he sounds so articulate I love talking to men like him.
I love how his community came together to celebrate him and more importantly, pray for him.
Yes those spirits were protecting him. It takes a village to raise a child 💯
And he need them prayers in that business Full of devils
I truly believe that’s why we haven’t seen him have a mugshot, or rehab story or worse. His family made sure he was spiritually covered.
Yes lord
Jason is absolutely the definition of a Stand-up guy and Class ACT. Any mother would be proud to call him their son 👍
Phenomenal story. At least he can say that MJ acknowledged him lol
Remember "Thea" with Jason and Brandy??
Dee Looks I really liked that show wished the network had given it at least another season

It's so weird because he has grey in his head and beard but such a young distinctive voice
"Summer Time Switch" on Disney was the shit back in the 90s. Jason is definitely a underrated actor and seems like a solid dude💯
I used to love that movie wen I was a kid.those were the days you couldn't tell us shit. Lol.
@@brendalynjones4576 FACTS tho 😂😂 back when we actually played outside🚲📺📼☎️
That has to be one of the most exciting things to ever experience as a child to get to play Michael Jackson in a Movie
This my new go-to source of great interviews and stories
I've always loved Jason Weaver! Being from the south suburbs of Chicago,I think he reps The Chi well! He's a great actor & singer. Love Ambition is still my joint!
Evita Lanton Yaaasss, love ambition is my ish!
Comedy Hype Y’all Cutting Up Keep Doin The Damn Thing 👏🏼🙂
Great interview, my only issue is, let the dude finish his sentences...
Right. That was off puting.
Agreed
Right!
I think the interviewer did a good job...good questions...you think he's bad, check out the Breakfast Club
This interview made me respect Jason Weaver even more than I already have much respect for him showing his appreciation for what Michael Jackson did for him & his family & not following the so called trend to believe the ignorant lies about Michael & not disrespecting him & being ungrateful like the other children & families he helped that ended up hurting & lying on him for absolutely nothing but just showing genuine love & caring
This brotha is alright with me. He seems like a cool and decent man. I wish him more success.
Even though Michael Jackson was a handsome man,he was very humble and never thought he looked good enough. And the reason for all the plastic surgery,lighter skin,etc. He had a skin condition called vitiligo where the person gets white patches all over the body.
The man was saying this since 93 we know this already
@@javondeezystillhere1466 yeah but alot of people are still being ignorant to it.
Yeah that’s why I hate when people make fun of him because he most likely had a mental disorder of some kind. He just couldn’t see himself as beautiful at all. There’s literally a condition ( I don’t know the name of it) where people just can’t see themselves as anything other than ugly.
@@ikexbankai Vitilogo is not a mental disorder. You are making fun of him by saying that.
Michelle where did I say vitiligo is a mental disorder? When did I say that? Did you even bother to read what I actually said?
I never said vitiligo was a mental disorder. I think for someone to go to the extremes Michael did to change his physical appearance (not including his skin color) he or she has to be suffering from something. Even if it’s something like addiction. Which is a mental disorder by the way. Maybe Michael got addicted to surgery plastic surgery. I really think he had to be suffering from something to keep getting those surgeries. His skin color has nothing to do with what I’m talking about.
Jason Weaver was perfect for that role of playing young Micheal Jackson he looked like him and sounded like him at the time .
Jason Weaver also song the songs for young Simba in The Lion King. That's legendary
Sung
@@TheMilkomania *sang
Yerp
He played a great young Michael Jackson
I love how Jason gave the honor that was due to true icon ; the late great Micheal Jackson . To the ones that still work feverishly to bring down his name 'shame on you! '
Jason Weaver absolutely no other child could have played Michael Jackson but you. You did a phenomenal job.
I had the biggest crush on Jason Weaver I loved him and I still do!
I love Comedy Hype! These Jason Weaver interviews are the shit!🔥 I love long interviews and learning the details and stories of these entertainers, keep it up bro💯
Agree
Man I’m a HUGE MJ fan and this makes my heart happy! I love you Jason Weaver! Thank you!
Say GOD! Much RESPECT for you and this channel! We need our own speaking to our own! Appreciate you asking real questions, and allowing them to answer in their on voices! No agenda, no digging for dirt, and no leading for gossip! Keep doing it! B1
I love who he has become. He's mature, confident and of good character. Says a lot about the love of his mom. 💜
Not too many people can play Michael but he played the hell out of a young Michael Jackson. Goosebumps every time I see Jason Weaver in the booth singing I’ll be there.
4:54 straight dying. His mom is hyped about laying leather lol in his head. That's funny yet its not.
Let’s make this channel bigger than vlad 🤷🏽♂️
HOUR:N9NE I’d love to see that happen but realistically this is moreso a comedy channel so he’s not going to get content from the diff avenues as a Vlad but I’m sure the respect of our culture would truly remain in tact if this guy had it. I can’t stand Vlad’s culture vulture ass.
What if Vlad secretly owns this channel spooky huh?
I've liked Jason since the tv show Smart Guy. You could tell he was an exceptional talent even then.
His memory is impeccable, remembering all the details after all those years
Love Jason Weaver!!! Great actor and singer!!
Yes. I was just playing his music the other day. We need a new album!
Man I remember that movie playing all day everyday in the summer. I would watch that movie all day with my cousins.
Such a phenomenal talent!!
That Jacksons movie had a all star cast
So well-spoken and articulate, very knowledgeable over the industry... I've always wanted to see more of him acting, and not in the cliche "hood" movies...to see him on some drama series would be nice
I agree. I hate to see Black actors typecasted into "hood" roles.
Jason has such a genuine spirit about him🙌🏾...and I love his voice lol
Big ups Jason, u are one hellva man. God bless u for ur honesty.
Remember that song he did with Chingy, that song was fire, he really has a great voice.
I am humbled by the sheer gratitude that Jason displays for the blessing he received from the world's most brilliant musical icon; what impressed me most is he REFUSED to piss on the person who blessed him....
Amen. That is intigrity!
I hope this sht lasts thru the rest of the year like in December will be: (Part 156) Jason Weaver explains how he killed that hook on Chingy One Call Away song. 😂😂💯💯🔥
😂💯
Over here cracking up 😂 ... but agreed
😂😂😂😂
I Love Michael Jackson and I will love him until the day I die❤️
Now I want to watch the American dream!
Loading it right now! Thanks to this interview.
Jason you got it... what I got??? Am I bout to get an ass whooping 🤣🤣🤣🤣
lmao that part was funny af
thank you for everything you doing G!! much love from the carolinas
Awesome interview, as usual. Jason is a very wise, upstanding, and talented man. Yet he's still grounded, genuine, and humble. And best of all, he has spiritual knowledge and wisdom as well 👍🏾
One of the most down to earth and genuine person ever.... *J-Weav* .....🤔
I remember when i use to go to Morris Brown College in Atlanta back in 2001 and while they were filming Drum Line i went to my Broadcasting Class and Jason Weaver was in there dropping gems on us and i remember him saying in the next few years Atlanta will be the next Hollywood.
I was also at Morris Brown College during Drumline. Still the best movie.
Ask him about Summertime Switch lol. I use to love that movie!! Lol
Yesss!!!
