Macaulay Culkin has not issued a public statement yet about the death of his friend Michael Jackson.

Yet, Culkin has a long history of being silent about his friendship with the King of Pop.

Five years ago, however, Macaulay Culkin, who has lived a quiet life in recent years with girlfriend Mila Kunis, broke years of previous silence and discussed his friendship with Michael Jackson on CNN's Larry King Live.

“I wasn’t one of his fans,” Culkin told King. “I think that’s one of the reasons we connected. I called him a jerk all the time. I called him a fathead and he gets it.” As for the molestation allegations and what happened when he was at Neverland, “That’s what’s so weird,” Culkin responded. “Nothing happened. Really. We played video games.”

Not long after his first interview about Jackson, Culkin took the stand during Jackson's criminal trial to defend his childhood pal.

During the trial, Culkin reported that Michael Jackson "never" sexually molested him or touched him in an improper way when he was still a child star.

Referring to the allegations at the time as "absolutely ridiculous," Culkin summarized staying at Neverland Ranch as "good old fun."
