Michael Jackson's music has been banned from BBC Radio 2 after a documentary exposing his alleged sex crimes is about to air.
According to The Sunday Times the decision was made last week ahead of Channel 4 screening Leaving Neverland, a four hour two part documentary featuring alleged victims James Safechuck and Wade Robson.
A BBC spokesman told the publication: "We consider each piece of music on its merits and decisions on what we play on different networks are always made with relevant audiences and context in mind."
Safechuck, 40, appeared on the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire Show alongside fellow Jackson accuser Wade and Leaving Neverland director Dan Reed.

Both Safechuck and Robson, 36, tell their stories in the controversial film about the King Of Pop, and they relived their torment on today's show.
Safechuck fought back tears as he claimed Jackson manipulated him when he was a little boy.

When asked about the details of the abuse he claims to have suffered, Safehuck replied: "He taught me to masturbate, like it was this amazing new thing that's going to change your life.
"And French-kissing, he said I taught him how to do that. He also loved having his nipples rubbed."
Robson went on to allege Jackson "tried to penetrate me anally" when he was 14.
Safechuck also said the singer groomed not only him but his family and the wider public.

He said: "There's a long grooming process for Michael. He inserts himself into your family and becomes part of of your family.
"He grooms the children and grooms the parents as well.
"It's a meticulous build-up for him to be able to do that and it takes him a while to build the trust. It doesn't happen overnight.
Robson added: "Most of the time it's not the scary guy in the van in the alleyway.
"Of course, that happens sometimes but I think it is the minority of cases.
"Most of the time it's the coach, the uncle, the teacher, the stepfather, the father, the mother, whatever.

"Somebody who is absolutely trusted, who has gained the trust of the child first and foremost, then the whole family. This was the case.
"Michael made sure from day one that he had a really special relationship with me, and that he had a really special separate relationship with my mother and with my sister and then my father.
"Right from day one, in an unnoticeable way, he started drawing this wedge between myself and my father, my mother and my father.
"He was just a master manipulator."
Leaving Neverland contains explosive allegations of child abuse against the King Of Pop, who died in 2009, and has sparked outraged among some of Jackson's most ardent fans.

Looks like they're starting with the Pedo in the Mirror.

I agree on your points there.

Don't get me started on the licence fee however, that's been my one big hate since I realised one was needed.
Scrap that thing and get rid of the truly awful TV licensing company.

Thank God for that, can't stand his music

Also obviously a paedo

I find it weird how the victims are like “he groomed the whole world” seems like a bit of a Sensationalist thing to say about someone who molested you

These are the same 'victims' that stood up for him in court testifying he had not touched them,and out they come years after his death and say the opposite, sorry I don't believe a word of it.There has been a witch hunt against him for years and seems there still is.

Exactly

I think it's utter BS ,if it's true why do they wait 10 years after his death to basically go back on their word. They lied on oath then in court ?!! .

Difference is though Chuff these two had previously stood up in court and under oath defended MJ and said he never ever touched them, they were 20 at the time , something stinks about all this. So they lied if what they are saying we are supposed to believe now, so why should I believe them now, and I don't ( love you too , (lol)

[arista]

Radio 2
trying to be moral.

Its a hard one as some of MJ's music produced by Quincy Jones
is Quality music with even Eddie Van Halen
on a Guitar solo.

[Alf]

His music did nothing wrong.

i think plenty people want to make money out of him and aren't trustworthy. However Jackson was seriously dodgy, that just cant be denied.

I agree ,he was a strange person in some ways , he was very childlike himself . but that doesn't prove he was a peado , just that he was very eccentric and different , amazing talent that some people seem to have always wanted to destroy . Very unfair now that he is dead aswell .

I honestly think MJ had alot of issues and lacked the support and advice he needed . And like you say was very childlike himself , i think he missed his childhood as he had alot of pressure and was thrown into fame soo young with Jackson 5 .

I think he was very naive around children , i think he genuinely just wanted them to be happy . I don't think he ever in his wildest nightmares expected them to all turn against him .

The Martin Bashir documentary ( Bashire was a 2 faced idiot) , really highlighted how innocent MJ was but things got twisted of course . Plus why do people keep forgetting that MJ himself was telling children to have his bed while he sleeps ELSEWHERE ?? . But it sounds like the kids would still want to share a bed with him as they supposedly idolised him.

Also if i was abused by someone , whether it was a celebrity or not i WOULD NEVER demand or want any of their money . Who accepts money from an alleged sexual predator? if they've genuinely been abused by them . That's where these greedy liars messed up .

I think MJ thought it would go away if he kept "paying them off" so to speak . But in my eyes that doesn't make him look guilty it just makes the accusers look dirty and scummy. We all know MJ was sadly wreckless with his finances and he spent hell of alot of money . And lacked guidance .

And it's disgusting how even in death this witch hunt continues , more people attention seeking and cashing in on destroying a dead man's reputation who can't fight back.

No one can deny the content and overly graphic and compelling material isn't shocking, but there are so many inconsistencies and facts the director, Dan Reed chose to omit or care to check up on. We see plenty of Wade and Jimmy's family, but nobody from Michael's family or anyone to speak up for him on his behalf.

Nothing is mentioned about Wade being bitter about being tossed aside in favour of Jamie King choreographing the Cirque Du Soleil shows that he DESPERATELY wanted to do, and coming to the realization he was abused by MJ TWO WEEKS afterwards.

Nothing is mentioned about him shopping around for a book deal to reveal all about MJ after getting dropped from Cirque Du Soleil.

Just like nothing is mentioned about MJ setting Wade and Brandy Jackson up on a date - to which they embarked on a 7 year relationship but ended after she found out he'd been cheating on her with Britney Spears - bearing in mind this was the same MJ who they claimed didn't like them associating and forming relationships with girls.

It's interesting how they spend so much of the documentary going into great detail about what happened durung the sexual abuse, but don't mention ANYTHING about Michael's Vitilego or the markings on his penis / body - which is something you'd expect to be of relevance to these accusations.

It's really difficult to comprehend how both would keep going back to a man who had allegedy done such disgusting things to them. I very much doubt a chld of 7 would perform oral sex on an adult without screaming blue murder, no matter how much they said they "loved each other".

They don't mention anything about the accusers appeal currently in motion to screw billions from MJ's Estate. (despite claiming "its not about money").

There's also inconsistencies with the familes too. Like when Safechuck's Mother claimed she danced when she heard MJ was dead in 2009, yet James said he didn't reveal anything about the abuse to her until 2013?

Then in the end credits we see Wade burning his MJ memorobilia, but what they don't tell you is he had sold off most items of REAL value years earlier with Julien’s Auctions - where he originally tried to sell them anonymously, but they wouldn't let him.

There's so many more shady facts on these guys that I could tell you.

When you look at their history of trying to get money out of MJ's estate, it's clear "Leaving Neverland" is just one big propoganda piece designed to make us pity them, and hoping this documentary this will help with their appeal. Unfortunately, those who don't know anything about the accusers will believe it and that's what's worrying. It's a slap in the face to REAL victims of abuse, tbh.

Great post Nancy, Why people are so willing to believe these too is very telling.Job done boys.

I mean he slept in the same bed as strangers kids, what do you think it "tells" about people who think that's a bit suspicious?

It tells me anyone who is close and sleeps with a kid is thought of as a paedo straight away, they weren't strangers kids according to them their parents welcomed him and regarded him as a friend as he had apparently groomed them too ,and as strange as it may seem ,just because someone sleeps in the same bed doesn't make them a paedo, he does explain that,it's all out there. In a nutshell there are too many lies and indiscrepancies for me to believe he abused kids.my opinion , that's all

I know you did as a lot of people did and do , but according to the USA court they didn't feel he was .

Personally, I need more evidence than two self admitted liars going into graphic detail about sexual fantasies (which are said to be remarkably similar to Victor Gutierez's - "MJ was my lover book") - That to me doesn't prove a damn thing, nor does trial by public opinion - which seems to be the way we're going these days and that's actually quite terrifiying, tbh.

Couldn't agree more.

Well said Nancy,and isn't it funny how some facts are conveniently overlooked, I do feel sorry for MJs kids and family it must be like watching a public execution. And the director of the documentry Dan Reed must be rubbing his hands together with glee,he's never had so much publicity.

He certainly seemed to have an odd relationship with children that's for sure

[Livia]

I find it strange that the family of one of the alleged victims accepted £15million and signed a non-disclosure agreement. So I hope the Jackson family will be seeking reimbursement because all I've heard so far against Jackson is hearsay, uncorroborated claims and that he paid people not to go to the press. That doesn't make him guilty. He was odd, I think everyone can agree with that... but I still don't believe there was any abuse, and until I see hard evidence I'm keeping off bandwagon. I remember the furore when Cliff Richard was arrested, at least he was able to provide evidence against the claims. But why, like in this case, wait till people are dead?

As for the BBC, I remember the appalling coverage of Cliff Richard's investigation that the BBC thought was acceptable... and it cost them several million. It was a knee jerk reaction from the BBC because it had allowed Saville to prey on kids for decades. Now they're playing it safe.
