onefoot7 why watch him if you are just gonna say negative shit?!? I’ve never seen as many people watch a man they don’t like as I do when it comes to Mike. Lol must be a sad life 😭
The wonderful thing about seeing him in these years is it was before he became such a target of tabloid sensationalism - he seems less guarded, freer, a little more innocent, for lack of a better word.
Notice that he became a target when he started to get bigger. They hated seeing a BLACK man on top of the world. I'm convinced if he wasn't a massive mega star that none of the slander and allegations would've ever happened. Just saying.
So cool to see him so natural and at ease and even back then talking about escapism. He was so on top of his game!! He created the game! Jane Pauley is a dolt.
Think about how much his life changed in the next year after this, Off the Wall sent him to the stratosphere. I really think this time period was one of his happiest, living on his own for the first time, shooting a movie with Diana Ross, working with Quincy Jones, and dancing the night away at Studio 54. Really wish we got to see this Michael a lot more but the fame Machine took that from us
he's the sweetest ever, jut ever to exist....and oh man, i just LOVE watching his mouth when he speaks - ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! my God he is so beautiful!!
@@charlottebennett7244 to me his life was, and still is, full of purpose and L.O.V.E. Im so grateful for this beautiful soul that came to us in the form of Michael Jackson 🌟
I wonder if Janet went with him that night. She wrote in her book that one of the things she loved to do was hangout at 54 with MJ when she took a break from Good Times. And she didn't understand why everyone was snorting "flour" lol she was like 11 or 12 years old at the time. 😂
Michael's fro at its biggest and best! I like this Michael the most. 'Mid 70's up until 82...83. Michael had to live up to being "Michael Jackson" after that. He was shy back then, but he got out and had fun. None of that creating a mystique stuff he was up to, mid 80's on. Which ended up backfiring on him.
@@CorpusChristi-j8x He already sold a lot of records at that point Like 97 million Before his biggest selling Album He was big But I think he didn't care about going out there
Because he already had about 5 drinks in him at this point of the night hahah Studio 54 use to let him drink how ever much he wanted to. That’s why he loved going there before he was 21.
@@jerodtabb311 I know for a fact. 100% lol I’ve had some awesome conversations with people who were closest to him. He loved going to 54 because he was away from Joe, staying on his own in hotels and with friends, and he can do whatever he wanted before he was 21. They treated him like an adult and kept all of his “party time” antics a secret. That’s why he loved it there. They looked out for him.
Thank you for posting this footage of our beloved Mr. Michael Joseph Jackson giving an interview at Studio 54. I enjoyed the interview. Michael was absolutely charming, sweet and beautiful. He was tall and slender. It was nice seeing how he put himself together for a fun night out. I would have adored putting my hands through his beautiful massive hair. It looked so soft and fluffy. Michael had great eye contact and such a lovely smile. The reporter was somewhat odd in her questioning! Love MJJ!
Ignorant reporter: ”But you're Michael Jackson. You don't have it so bad. What are you escaping from?" Yeah shows what you fucking know. Poor Michael had so much loneliness and pain from his abusive and traumatic past. Rip sweet angel
They should have arranged a platinum throne for King Michael and not have him crouch uncomfortably on the floor. I would have had him sit on my lap if there was no chair available...I would have also gone to Studio 54 after the interview and danced with Michael Jackson, all night!!

I'd love to see this cleared up...Michael Jackson is too pretty to be grainy. Letting loose and just not thinking about work = escapism. Dance freely instead of choregraphed...Makes sense...what didn't she understand...LOL
Nice interview with music singer Michael Jackson of The Jacksons at Studio 54 club in New York in 1970's. LOL@Michael hair afro. Michael Jackson(RIP), Vanity(RIP), Florence Ballard of The Supremes(RIP), Cameo, Beyonce Knowles are my favorite black music singers.
stryfetc1 Yes like every star there I’m sure. I wasn’t even conceived in the 70s so I always wondered how different times were. I get to see through videos.
Michael never could sit or stand still all the times. Just because he’s moving doesn’t mean he’s getting high. But Elvis was a getting high as hell in Vegas
A local writer in Indianapolis was describing famous people from there. He mentioned Kurt Vonnegut born there but wasn't Indianapolis identified. Dave Letterman is Indianapolis identified albeit reluctantly since he wants to be known as a New York-LA guy. When he came to Jane, he mentioned that she is Indianapolis but not Speedway like Joyce DeWitt. LOL
@kateclay100 Actually Mike says himself during the countdown interview that they're already a couple of months into shooting the Wiz. Michael's weight had nothing to do with the movie at all, he was simply moving through puberty. His face got "thinner" because his features evened out, and he lost the baby fat that most guys lose by the time they hit 19 or so. :)
Ja bombava! Mas olha a humildade deu a entrevista agachado, e parece q ele gostou de o povo n ter bajulado ele, mas ja vi outras entrevistas q adorava sentar e deitar no chao, nisso eu sou parecida com ele.
At the end Liza Minelli and Valerie Bertinelli saying hello to Michael. Liza, "Hello sweetums!" I cannot remember the name of that third woman with Liza and Valerie. Ugh, driving me nuts. Anybody out there that was back in the day like me and Mikey?
@mjafad10 LOL the world doesn't revolve around Michael, sorry. That's Steve Rubell who co-owned Studio 54. They're just backstage in his office, it's a laid back atmosphere and I'm sure Michael didn't mind crouching against the wall. It was an informal interview.
he was definitely on coke here I'm saying that no matter who you were , especially a high profile-person it was offered to you as part of the experience at studio 54
No he wasn't. I'm very experienced with it. He is clearly sobre here. He was a shy jehova's witness with a lot of hang-ups about sex and drugs. Drugs weren't his thing
Nope.... People like you were terrified when Black People showed you how strong they were by showing you their strength in the form of the Afro.... facts Angela Davis had the most aggressive Afro.....It showed her strength and for people who don't acknowledge that we are all descendants of BLACK PEOPLE have an issue with it.💪🏽💙🤍🙏🏾
Michael never really changed throughout his life. Very sweet.

Honestly he just looked so happy in that era wasn’t he 20 around then he was still very young
love how Michael said "whoops 'scuse me" at the beginning of the video. he was so polite. They should of at least given him a seat though!
OMG...he is just so damn gorgeous.
Yes, and beautiful brown skin
is anyone else hypnotized by that Halo of an Afro!?! hes sooo cute!

He already been famous since he was a kid But Right he was a Regular celebrity then When he Turn to a monster in the music video
The matrix got him
So True Michael Jackson was with real people he could be his self no one crowd him even Janet and Latoya went with him ❤
How rude of that guy to leave Michael crouched on the floor...MAKE SOME ROOM FOR THE FUTURE KING, DAMMIT!!
That dude is the owner of the club
wasn't that Steve Rubel?
I have a thing for the Jacksons era. He's so...UGH TOO MANY FEELS
who are you talking to?
This has to be one of the most unique snapshots of some of the greatest icons of 20th Century popular culture...

I think it's cool that it is so casual. Seem like they were in his office and there wasn't much space. Love the candidness of it all.
the young king didn’t come to studio 54 to be interrogated/interviewed, he came to get away from all that
Came to dance to house music
Ignorant reporter: ”But you're Michael Jackson. You don't have it so bad. What are you escaping from?"
Yeah shows what you fucking know. Poor Michael had so much loneliness and pain from his abusive and traumatic past. Rip sweet angel
If only I was over 21 and living in NYC at the time....
I’m pretty sure they would allowed you in. They let his sister in and she only 11/12 years old.
Sometime toward the 3:00 mark when Michael said that Darth Vader came to Studio 54 🤣🤣🤣🤣LOVE IT🤣🤣🤣🤣🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
His afro was perfection 👌🏽
That interviewer was asking some really ridiculous questions,what do you mean "Why does he dance for fun?"🙄
i love this..."hi sweet baby" :)

He was so handsome : his father destroyed him and later all these liars who told these horrible stories about him - they all killed him in the end !
Wow he’s so charming ❤️❤️
His voice never changed.
Liza was lookin👀 like who the hell is this lady with the microphone and camera in my face asking me questions. I just walked in the door.
