Did you know that Michael Jackson and Prince once performed on the same stage with their idol James Brown?
The legendary entertainers
joined Brown onstage during a show in 1983 for an impromptu performance. This
showing was quite significant as the media often touted that Jackson and Prince
were involved in a bitter feud – a dispute that reportedly worsened after the
former adopted a Glam Rock style for his ‘Bad’ era that was strikingly similar to
Prince’s usual fashion.
Ironically, Prince was asked by
Jackson to contribute to the ‘Bad’ album on the title track and was supposed to
appear in the accompanying video in the role eventually played by Wesley Snipes but
he refused.
