Macaulay Culkin & James Franco Had An Awkward Michael Jackson Meeting

Home Alone actor Macaulay Culkin had revealed that he had a meeting with fellow movie star James Franco and it centered around the late King of Pop Michael Jackson.

Culkin recently spoke about the sexual molestation accusations leveled against Michael Jackson, saying the late pop star never did anything inappropriate to him and never saw do anything of the sort.

The Home Alone star met Franco on a plane after having bumped into him two or three times in the past and their meeting wasn’t exactly a pleasant one as the sensitive topic of the molestation charges against MJ was brought up.

Here’s a good Michael Jackson story that doesn’t involve Michael Jackson at all: I ran into James Franco on a plane. I’d bumped into him two or three times over the years. I give him a little nod as we’re putting our bags overhead. Hey, how you doing? Good, how ya doing? And it was right after the Leaving Neverland documentary came out, and he goes, ‘So, that documentary!’ And that was all he said. I was like, ‘Uh-huh.’ Silence. So then he goes, ‘So what do you think?’ And I turned to him and I go, ‘Do you wanna talk about your dead friend?’ And he sheepishly went, ‘No, I don’t.’ So I said, ‘Cool, man, it was nice to see you.Macaulay Culkin – movieweb.com

The meeting between the two actors occurred after the release of Leaving Neverland, a documentary that focuses on two men, Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who allege that they were sexually abused as children by Michael Jackson.
