Michael Jackson’s 1989 Celebrity Menagerie

In the outpouring of reminiscences about Michael Jackson's life and career over the past few days, it has been mostly overlooked that in 1989, he built a private celebrity menagerie, and he put all of the celebrities in there so that he could watch them mingle. Seriously, all of them. Uh oh, Richard Dreyfus just pooped on Whoopi Goldberg! (Gross, sorry.) (P.S. This video is amazing.)

there are so many celebrities in this thing it is ridiculous! I can name most of them:

    • Steven Spielberg
    • Weird Al Yankovic

I'm sure I missed a couple. 1989 was a busy year for me, what with my divorce and my hip surgery and planning my 50th birthday party. But I am pretty sure I got most of them. (Via JimmyFallonBlog.)
