Three Decades with Michael Jackson
An Interview with Karen Faye by Carme Tenuta
How did you meet Michael Jackson?
I began working with Dick Zimmerman, who was a very
popular celebrity photographer back then. He booked me on
a shoot for an album cover with Michael Jackson. The album
was Thriller. Michael and I got along really great! Michael
requested me for his next photo session with ET
and his
next assignment, Beat It
and everything after that
the
rest is history. Michael was embarking on The Victory Tour with his
brothers. Michael required my complete attention, so I
brought in Carme to help me. I met Carme earlier while working
at the Barbizon School where we both had been teaching.
We had become good friends. This began Carmes 10-year
working relationship with Michaels brothers.
Michael could trust you.
Yes, he could. The media started hounding me after the
Thriller album was released. I remember being called by a tabloid reporter offering me $75,000 for any information about Michael or the video shoot we were working on for the
song Thriller. I said no. They said, how much then? It
just wasnt something that tempted me. The offers got more
outrageous from there. They finally all got to realize I was a
dead end for information and it tapered off a bit. But during
major controversies they still were very persistent.
Was Michael spiritual?
Anyone who is creative is naturally connected to the universe.
Michael always attributed his talent to God. He said God was
channeling through him, and it had nothing to do with him.
I know how much Michael loved all children of the world.
Thats right but what I find more interesting is how children
are drawn to him, like a magnet. I think they recognized a
kindred spirit. They recognized his unconditional love and related to him because he was a child at heart. Children look at the world through fresh, unjaded eyes. Michael had the
ability to see the wonderment of the world like they did.
What was his favorite food?
Michael wasnt a big eater. He thought it was a waste of
time, like a child having to sit at the dinner table while
hearing all the other kids outside calling him to come out
to play. He chooses organic and healthy food but sure can
enjoy a bucket of KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken). Akasha
was his chef many years ago, and now has a restaurant in
Culver City, California. She would find the perfect compromise.
She would make him organic cheese enchiladas
that he covered with hot sauce. He would want to eat them
every day. She also made a killer banana cream pie that was
a favorite. I will never forget these wonderful cookies she
made that he nicknamed ookies.
Michael is known in the Guinness Book of World
Records as holding the record for celebrities
giving to charities. Can you share about that?
It is a little difficult to share too much about that because it
is not something Michael would talk about. He would just
do it. He just did. When we were touring the world, while
everyone was going out to restaurants and clubs, Michaels
joy came from visiting orphanages and hospitals. I used to
go with him. He would have his team contact them before
his visit and find out what they needed. He would fill up his
vehicles with toys and treats and we would go. He arranged
for playgrounds to be built, bought busses and provided
vehicles, paid for expensive operations for children.
Can you share with us when and where was the
photo taken?
The photo was taken, high on a hill at Neverland by Jonathan
Exley before the trial began.
What were Michaels favorite make-up products?
Easy, hands down, Lancôme Dual Finish Powder! Lancôme
would provide it by the case for me. Shout out to Lancome
thanks for so many years of your generosity. Michael would
have it and leave it everywhere. He had it in every pocket.
Everyone around him knew if they found a compact, to return
it to me, so I could recycle it back to him.
I know Michaels nickname for you was
Turkle. How did you get that name?
Ill never tell.
