The s.e.x story of ‘King of Pop’ Michael Jackson told by ‘mysterious lover’

Michael Jackson left behind a musical legacy of great mystery when he died suddenly in 2009. But he also left behind a lover who was once considered a secret.

Seven years after the King of Pop’s death, people are still trying to “find fault”. Shana Mangatal, the woman who claims to be the mystery lover, has just published a book about her secret relationship with Michael, who she calls “my first love”.

In his memoir, ‘Michael and Me: The Untold Story of Michael Jackson,’ Mangatal delves into the details of the King of Pop’s bedside manner. Much of the story’s plot is aimed at establishing Jackson as a sex machine.

Shana Mangatal and Michael Jackson

Shana Mangatal first became known when she appeared in the 1997 short film Ghosts Michael about a terrifying spirit with supernatural powers who is driven from a small town to New York City.

Shana, 45, was an assistant to Michael’s manager before rising to become an extra. Mangatal met Jackson in 1992. She writes that they shared their first kiss in her trailer during a scene. “The feel of his soft lips on mine felt like an old, familiar pillow, warm and inviting,”

“He gently grabbed the back of my head with one hand and stroked my hair and then we continued. He kissed me more passionately than before and I felt tremors shaking all over my body…”, she recalled.

But their love affair did not stop there! The following summer, she met Michael in the emperor’s hotel to make love for the first and last time.

Mangatal recalled that a few days later, Jackson asked her to come to his hotel and met her at the door in her pajamas. At first, Mangatal felt like she was dating “a teenage boy,” she wrote.

They shared two bottles of wine before Jackson began his flirtatious remarks. Michael began to caress her, then suddenly stopped, only to hear her confirm her promise not to tell anyone.

Like a virgin on their first night of passion. “Jackson asked me about sex while also guiding me like a connoisseur,” she wrote.

But in the morning, the King of Pop made a confession. “You know, I used to pray to God every night to take away my sexual desires.” “Jackson said he wanted to focus completely on his work and not let his sexual desires dominate him,” Mangatal recalled.

Mangatal said they spent more nights together that summer. They also had “phone sex” where Jackson sang “sexual” lyrics to her.

However, she soon realised it was an illicit affair as at the time, his nurse wife Debbie Rowe was pregnant with Michael’s first child. “Suddenly, the reason behind the intense need to keep things a secret between us became crystal clear,” she revealed. “It was devastating.”

As further evidence, Mangatal said she saw Jackson use sex to control his first wife, Lisa Marie Presley. “He used it to barter for what he wanted,” she said.

But women weren’t Jackson’s only weakness. One of Michael’s assistants told Mangatal that “the kids” were also a real problem because he “let them interfere too much with his work,” she wrote.

“I began to see that Michael didn’t really know how to set boundaries between himself and his younger friends,” Mangatal wrote. He said he liked the young boys to “playfully” laugh at him.

It was the seed of all the troubles that would come to Jacko. “One thing I do know is that Michael really tried not to disappoint his fans. And Jackson’s fans “ wanted their kids to be close to Michael,” she said. “The problem was that he couldn’t say no to anyone – especially children. He was so kind and sweet. He couldn’t say no to anyone and if he did, the parents would be very upset.”

“I know a lot of families who pushed their sons to Michael and wanted him to spend time with them. If he refused, they would be very upset and cause a lot of trouble,” she said. “I saw it all.” As the allegations became clear, Mangatal said Jackson was devastated.

All of Jacko’s problems, Mangatal said, stemmed from “this naivety”. She admitted she was naive enough to introduce the children to Jackson at the request of their parents.

Mangatal’s relationship with Jackson ended as Michael prepared for his “HIStory” tour, which began in September 1996. Jackson invited her to a concert in Hawaii, where Mangatal was dismayed to see him in the arms of a young boy. From then on, the King of Pop kept his distance from her.

Michael Jackson died on June 25, 2009, at the age of 50. The coroner ruled that he died of a drug overdose.
