Michael Jackson: The King of Pop
Photo 28 of 39
A Bum Buss?
Jackson's reputation as a ladies' man was pretty much non-existent, and given his bizarre date with Brooke Shields and Webster back in the '80s, as well as the seeming lack of girlfriends in his life, his preference for spending his time with children and the recent molestation charges, it was no surprise when speculation swirled that his marriage to Presley might not include, ahem, romance. In fact, the couple's very public smooch on stage at the 1994 MTV Awards only added to the rumors, as the awkward kiss seemed anything but sexual. "And just think, nobody thought this would last," Jackson said before kissing Presley. It didn't, in fact; the pair divorced in 1996, and Presley later admitted that Jacko's PR reps had insisted they kiss on stage. She also later insisted that she and Jackson had been "sexually active" during their marriage. Presumably, she meant with each other.
