His Las Vegas security guards - Williams, James, and Garcia and Thomas Mesereau, all of whom knew Michael well, have confirmed that he was not homosexual.
Attorney Thomas Mesereau became intimately aware of Michael Jackson's sexual proclivities during the months of the 2005 trial that delved into every aspect of the superstar's private life. There was a massive and thorough investigation into every event and piece of evidence that might reveal Michael's sexual preference and behaviours. Every item at his Neverland home - books, magazines, videos, articles of clothing, laundry hamper, papers, safes, and personal effects - was searched, confiscated, and/or filmed. Only some "girlie" magazines were found; nothing related to homosexual pornography was found - nothing. It is interesting to note that a photo of Marilyn Monroe was displayed on Michael's bedside table.
Thomas Mesereau affirms that "Michael Jackson was a 'red blooded male heterosexual'; he was not a pedophile - nothing could be further from the truth."
His Las Vegas security team of three men have affirmed that "Michael Jackson was not gay."
"Men know men," they explained in a kind of shorthand to communicate that they got to know their boss intimately and that he obviously liked women. He would watch them from his vehicle, like any heterosexual man would do, and occasionally he would comment to his protectors on the attractiveness of various women.
Mr Jackson maintained a relationship with each of two women during the many months of guard service by Boyd Williams, Baron James and Michael Garcia.
Known to his security team as "Flower" and "Friend" each would occasionally come to visit their boss. Mike Garcia speaks about driving them to meet when one of the women came to Las Vegas to spend private time with him. Three men believed that Mr Jackson used nicknames for the women in order to protect their identities.
Mr Jackson did not entertain either of his female friends in the presence of his children nor did they come to his house. Nothing was more important to Mr Jackson than the well being of his family and he did not want to impose a single/unmarried female guest, as his "date", upon his young, impressionable children. This behaviour was in keeping with his self professed description as "old fashioned" and "a gentleman."
It is fair to say that Michael Jackson was at the point in his life that he would not allow himself to open up thoroughly to any woman or allow himself to fall in love. Doing so would bring a world of his attention to his women friends, and the media would be relentless - like a dog with a bone - in chasing and hounding these women.
Ironically, it seems that the only ones outside of his security team - who ever saw Michael Jackson and one of his female companions together did not recognize him. Thankfully, no photos were ever taken. This situation is a tribute to his security men, who worked so diligently and intelligently hat Mr Jackson and his special "friends" were not detected or revealed to the public.
When Mr Jackson was visited by one of the women, the security team covertly made all of his requested arrangements. The guards escorted Mr Jackson into his reserved hotel suite without the knowledge or cooperation of hotel management. It would be too risky to notify hotel personnel about the boss' identity; his rendezvous with his lady could be easily and quickly ruined by the onslaught of paparazzi. "Michael Jackson with Mystery Woman!"
For the guards, it was great to know they could provide Mr Jackson with temporary peace of mind, which he so longed for and deserved. He could have someone he truly liked and she could reciprocate his feelings. They "acted like high school sweethearts," laughing, giggling, and joking around. They spoke on the telephone often, so much that Mr Jackson accumulated huge monthly long distance phone bills.
The revelation of Michael Jackson and women friends comes as no shock to most of the residents of Losn Olivos, the closest town to Neverland, at a distance of five miles. There, among the townspeople, it was commonly known that their neighbour superstar was dating women. Michael and his female friends typically avoided public places, as was his modus operandi in general, but sometimes he was spotted with a woman companion, who was obviously a "date" and the Michael Jackson sighting would be passed by word of mouth. Soon everyone would hear about it in this peaceful, scenic town in "wine country" with only 1,100 residents. It's also interesting to note that, according to a recent US Census Bureau report, the racial make up of Los Olivos was 92.7% white, only one African American (.1%) and the remaining 7.2% of individuals were of other races. Michael Jackson was unique within his local community and in so many ways - the biggest celebrity, the wealthiest resident, and an anomaly as an African American man.
When Michael Jackson was seen in the Los Olivos area, especially with a woman friend, it was always notable.
