Jacko: "I'm Just Like Disney"
Troubled pop star Michael Jackson compared himself to film legend Walt Disney during evidence at his ongoing court case Wednesday. The Bad hitmaker, currently giving further evidence in a $21 million case brought by a concert promoter who accuses the singer of pulling out of two millennium concerts, claims that he shares many traits with the late animator - because he's a "visionary" rather than a businessman. He modestly explained in the Californian court, "I'm a visionary and a creative person. God blessed me with certain talents. I hate to use an analogy, but Walt Disney was creative but not good with business. His brother Roy handled the books. He (Walt) loved creating family-oriented entertainment and so do I. I feel that was a gift and I have that gift also. I'm very honored to have been chosen." And to add a further dash of absurdity to the proceedings, when asked if he had memory lapses, the odd star stated, "Not that I can recall."
