Michael Jackson is 'Smelly'
08/11/2007
Michael Jackson is known by some of his closest work associates as 'Smelly', since he refuses to use any other word as a profanity.
Record producer Quincy Jones and director Steven Spielberg both use the term when referring to Jackson, it has been revealed in US magazine Ebony.
Jackson also revealed that he has no plans to follow James Brown and continue performing into his old age.
"I won't be working in the way James Brown did, or Jackie Wilson did, where they just killed themselves," said Jackson.
"I wish Brown could have slowed down and been more relaxed and enjoyed his hard work."
Jackson is, however, planning a new album - with Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am and Kanye West, perhaps to help him pay the $12m debt on his Neverland ranch...
