My brush with Jacko
For my 13th birthday, my sister had organised something very special.

Her boyfriend was playing bass for Kim Wilde at the time, and it just so happened that she was the support act for Michael Jackson's Bad tour.

So I got the chance to travel with him in a limo to Wembley Stadium, hang out backstage with Kim and Marti Wilde, meet all of Jacko's dancers and crew, and stand by the stage and watch the whole gig looking out over the audience.

I was even asked to stand in line with the other hanger's on backstage and shake the ex-popstrel's limp, begloved hand.

Shame I despised Michael Jackson and all his music. I still do. I would definitely have given Kim Wilde one though.

You're lucky.
If you're male you were just his type at the time. Your story could have ended very differently and you could have an arsehole like a gaping sinkhole.

You must have been a fucking ugly 13 year old.

Careful Shambles, it's a slippery slope from where you are now to pointing out which 13 year olds you find attractive.
