Tatum
O'Neal
Michael
Jackson
said
his
"first
real
date" was
with
the
child
actress
Tatum
O'Neal
when
he
was
a
teenager
in
the
1970s;
he
called
her
"my
first
love
-
after
Diana
Ross.
Brooke
Shields
After
his
romance
with
Tatum
faded,
he
got
into
a
relationship
with
Brooke
Shields
in
1981.
Shields
spoke
at
the
memorial
service
for
Michael
Jackson
on
July
7,
2009,
where
she
mentioned
the
first
time
she
met
Jackson
(when
she
was
13-years-old),
and
the
two
instantly
became
friends.
Shields
said:
"Thinking
back
to
when
we
met
and
the
many
times
that
we
spent
together
and
whenever
we
were
out
together,
there
would
be
a
caption
of
some
kind,
and
the
caption
usually
said
something
like
'an
odd
couple' or
'an
unlikely
pair,'
but
to
us
it
was
the
most
natural
and
easiest
of
friendships...
Michael
always
knew
he
could
count
on
me
to
support
him
or
be
his
date
and
that
we
would
have
fun
no
matter
where
we
were.
We
had
a
bond...
Both
of
us
needed
to
be
adults
very
early,
but
when
we
were
together,
we
were
two
little
kids
having
fun."
What
MJ
Felt
"That
was
one
of
the
loves
of
my
life.
I
think
she
loved
me
as
much
as
I
loved
her,
you
know?
We
dated
a
lot.
We,
we
went
out
a
lot.
Her
pictures
were
all
over
my
wall,
my
mirror,
everything.
And
I
went
to
the
Academy
Awards
with
Diana
Ross
and
this
girl
walks
up
to
me
and
says
'Hi,
I'm
Brooke
Shields.'
Then
she
goes,
'Are
you
going
to
the
after-party?'
I
go,
'Yeah.'
'Good,
I'll
see
you
at
the
party.'
I'm
going,
'Oh
my
God,
does
she
know
she's
all
over
my
room?'
So
we
go
to
the
after-party.
She
comes
up
to
me
she
goes,
'Will
you
dance
with
me?'
I
went,
'Yes.
I
will
dance
with
you.'
Man,
we
exchanged
numbers
and
I
was
up
all
night,
singing,
spinning
around
my
room,
just
so
happy.
It
was
great," he
told
Rabbi
Shmuley
Boteach
in
2001.
Madonna
Michael
Jackson
and
Madonna
raised
eyebrows
when
they
attended
the
Grammys
together
in
1991.
However
the
icons
carried
the
'friends' tag.
"I
was
madly
in
love
with
him,
totally
smitten,"
Madonna
told
Rolling
Stone
as
the
Material
Girl
loved
the
icon.
"He
was
mind-bogglingly
talented.
The
songs
he
sang
were
not
childlike
at
all.
I
met
him
in
the
early
'80s,
when
I
first
started
working
with
my
manager,
Freddy
DeMann,
who
at
the
time
was
managing
Michael
Jackson.
I
saw
him
play
at
Madison
Square
Garden,
and
I
was
blown
away.
He
was
flawless.
There
was
a
party
at
the
Helmsley
Palace
Hotel.
He
was
very
shy,
but
it
was
a
thrill
for
me."
she
revealed.
