Chris Tucker: I Was Afraid of Michael Jackson

Chris Tucker, comedian and film actor, has once again spoken about his friendship with Michael Jackson. In the early years of his career as a comedian, he used to perform Michael’s dance moves on stage during live comedy shows, and with his jokes he made the audience laugh.

In the end, Tucker became one of Michael’s friends, and he played a role in the video “You Rock My World.”

He said: “I never even dreamed that one day I would become friends with him, but when I met him for the first time, he was the best man—the kindest man I’ve ever seen in my life. He treated our friendship like a big brother would.”

Of course, Chris never found the courage to perform Michael’s dance in front of him.

“I was scared he’d say, ‘Are you trying to imitate someone?’”
