World(ANN)-Barbra Streisand believes Michael Jackson was a child molester but defends his “sexual needs”
Singer and actress Barbra Streisand acknowledged Michael Jackson was a child abuser, but also thinks his victims should be lucky the sexual assaults didn't kill them, TMZ reported.
Streisand's remarks: During an interview with The Times in the U.K., the iconic singer discussed the "King of Pop" and two of his accusers -- Wade Robson and James Safechuck.
"His sexual needs were his sexual needs, coming from whatever childhood he has or whatever DNA he has," said Streisand.
Both Robson and Safechuck are featured in HBO's 2019 documentary 'Leaving Neverland.'
"You can say molested, but those children, as you heard them say [in the documentary] they were thrilled to be there. They both married and they both have children, so it didn't kill them."
"I feel bad for the children. I feel bad for him. I blame, I guess, the parents who would allow their children to sleep with him. Why would Michael need these little children dressed like him and in the shows and the dancing and the hats?" she said.
In a comment for the Washington Post, Streisand clarified some of her bizarre statements, saying, "To be crystal clear, there is no situation or circumstance where it is OK for the innocence of children to be taken advantage of by anyone."
