    You see this is one of the many reasons why we loved George so much; he never got weird or disrespectful like some of these Superstars become. Not a surprise to me why Aretha finally teamed up with George.

      Michael wasn't weird or disrespectful, just introverted and needed some time to warm up to people, it could come off a bit standoffish but that wasn't the intention. I know George wasn't like his persona but he is open when approached, he was probably used to flamboyant and bubbly personalities when speaking to his peers and stars, so the MJ meetup was a shock to him. Sometimes years after rejection (human nature), you can often exaggerate how bad the meeting or situation was based on how you were feeling (at the time) but it wasn't, happened to the Beatles before and many artists until they look back at footage or any documentation which shows otherwise.

      I disagree. He knew who George Michael was because they were on the same label. I'm pretty sure MJ didn't really like George Michael that's what my intuition says, because he saw him as a serious threat. Sure Michael Jackson was really popular and sure he'd been in the music business longer but here comes this honey tanned Adonis with good looks great voice and great music and he's appealing to the black community which was strange for a white guy to be attracting black fans, in such a quick matter of time but also a lot of white fans as well. He appealed to mainstream America like no other. I'm not saying Michael Jackson didn't respect him probably did in secret but why in anything George says about Michael it's negative when he's gotten along well with other black musicians. Anyways it's ok if they didn't like each other why should they have? They were both legends in their own right. Michael Jackson was super famous George Michael was also famous but either way you knew who each was when you heard their songs.

      George Michael también era super tímido, incluso en muchas entrevistas y sesiones de estudio se nota muchísimo que era bastante introvertido pero NUNCA fue irrespetuoso. Incluso Aretha contó que le temblaba la voz cuando le hablaba pero no por eso le dejaba de hablar. También en muchos videos de cuando canta en vivo se nota su pánico escénico

    It’s interesting, all three of those people were legends by that time and had been in the music industry for decades at that point and I wonder if they just considered George Michael to be a newcomer kid still even though he had had huge success for three years at that point, and if that’s why they were so demeaning of him. I’ve seen lots of videos of Michael Jackson interacting very respectfully and politely with other big stars

    Actually, Bruce Swedien( Michaels mixin engineer) said that he would stand in the corner quietly even in the recording studio. Another technical engineer of his said that when new people came into the studio Michael would become quiet and he needed to warm up to new people. It is true Michael was shy and many many people said the same thing I think the beginning of vitiligo had its effect. I don't think that he did it on purpose to George.

    • @jr9249

      Do you know specifically what he was like around other people in 1986? Because when you see home movies of him like after the 1984 award shows with Brooke Shields and Emmanuel Lewis and camera crews he doesn’t seem shy at all. I was actually surprised at how outgoing he was even with all those people around and cameras.

      I have tried to figure out if there’s anyone famous who has definitely said when his skin condition really definitely started. Have you heard a definite answer to that question before? And how bad did it get and how quickly? I wonder if it started during thriller or before thriller.
      I’ve wondered if it didn start until thriller and if that accounts for why he suddenly seemed a lot more introverted in public than in the period between 1978 and 81.

    • @jr9249

      Also I wanted to find out if he actually did have a neurological disorder because I remember hearing that he had jerky and shaking movements in his deposition and that people at the time thought he might have a neurological disorder. But that was just random people I would talk to in person and I never heard anybody talk about it on TV. I Remember people also wondered if it could also be side effects from drugs. Or If he was taking drugs for a neurological disorder and it had side effects of making him out of it. Neurologiss give some people beta blocker medication for neurological disorders and it can make you very cognitively fussy and disoriented.
