If Michael was here, would he have been friends with today’s popular celebs?

[StarlightXX]

A legacy of Michael is that he had public encounters with the hottest celebrities of the time. In the 2000s, he was seen with Usher, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, etc.

I thought it would have been really interesting if he lived in the 2010s and had public encounters with the hottest celebs like Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande and Bruno Mars and even Adele. I believe we saw the very beginning of 2010s encounters when Michael had private meetings with Kanye West and attended Miley Cyrus’ concerts with daughter Paris.

I think he would've been genuinely good friends with Lady Gaga and Pharrell.

Probably he would've been friends with The Weeknd and Bruno Mars.

Probably he would've been friends with The Weeknd and Bruno Mars.

He would probably have a direct underground line to Beyonces house, but I do think everyone you listed would be frequent visitors and well wishers of his.

I think he could be friends with P!nk

Probably he would've been friends with The Weeknd and Bruno Mars.

I can definitely see Michael reconnecting with Madonna again, during one of her world tours.

As far as 2010s and 2020s celebs, I imagine Michael talking to Zendaya and Timothée Chalamet and Jimmy Kimmel.

I don't think she likes him

Totally agree this. As we know, Lady Gaga is a big fan of MJ and he's her biggest inspiration.

The likes of The Weeknd and Bruno Mars I’m certain Michael would have 100% met either publicly or in private.

Justin Bieber another perhaps? We know he met Rihanna and also Chris Brown.

Jimmy Kimmel though?

I don’t think MJ would have been any different, still the allusive man all mysterious even with social media etc

 

[MJsAngelOfMusic]

He would have been calling all the women celebs he found attractive to tell them how beautiful they were. That was his usual, I don't think that would have changed. Shoot your shot Mike!

Yeah, naw. Him being friends with Jimmy Kimmel was not happening unless Jimmy had a change of opinion about him and stopped making wise cracked insinuations.
