Los Angeles, USA – Unreleased audio recordings of the late pop icon Michael Jackson have emerged ahead of the upcoming Channel 4 documentary, The Trial, revealing his private and controversial reflections on children. In one of the most striking recordings, Jackson reportedly said that he would be devastated if he could not meet children, underscoring a deeply personal aspect of his life that has long fascinated and divided fans worldwide.
In the audio clips, Jackson reportedly said, “If you told me right now… Michael, you could never see another child… I would kill myself.” He also discussed how children often wanted to “touch me and hug me,” and how his personality sometimes drew young fans to him in ways that “got me into trouble.” These intimate and never-before-heard remarks provide a rare glimpse into the mindset of one of the world’s most celebrated yet polarising entertainers.
Behind the Controversial Recordings
Producers of The Trial revealed that these recordings were uncovered during research for the documentary, which seeks to examine Jackson’s complex life and career, especially in relation to his interactions with minors. Over the years, Jackson’s friendships with children, including high-profile cases like that of Gavin Arvizo, have been the subject of intense public scrutiny and legal battles.
While these recordings do not provide evidence of illegal conduct, experts and commentators have described the statements as “unsettling” due to the singer’s history of unusual relationships with children. They shed light on his deep emotional connection to young fans, which was often misunderstood and sensationalised in media coverage.

Michael Jackson, hailed globally as the “King of Pop,” remains one of the most influential and controversial figures in music history. His artistic genius is undisputed, yet his personal life has continually sparked debate. The release of these intimate audio recordings is expected to reignite conversations about Jackson’s character, intentions, and the complicated nature of his relationships with children.
Fans and critics alike are now preparing for the release of The Trial, anticipating further revelations that could challenge long-held perceptions about the legendary singer.
