Brooke Shields who gave a very heartfelt and emotional eulogy Tuesday at Michael Jackson's memorial, in a new magazine tribute (the special commemorative issue of RollingStone) discusses her friendship with MJ and how he proposed to her several times.
As SFGate reports:
Brooke Shields turned down countless marriage proposals from late pal Michael Jackson, the actress has revealed in a new magazine tribute.
Shields fought back tears as she honored her "little prince" at the King of Pop's memorial in Los Angeles on Tuesday, recalling how much fun the pair had as teenage friends, and now she's revealing more about her relationship with the late pop superstar.
She tells the upcoming Jackson tribute issue of Rolling Stone, "There were times when he would ask me to marry him, and I would say, 'You have me for the rest of your life, you don't need to marry me, I'm going to go on and do my own life and have my own marriage and my own kids, and you'll always have me.'
"I think it made him relax. He didn't want to lose things that meant something to him."
