Jay : Now tell me about, I know you were good friends with Michael Jackson. You guys hang out. So tell me about that. What was it like hanging with Michael?
Chris: It was amazing.
Jay : Were you at up his house? At Neverland?
Chris : Yeah man it was amazing. For me to grow up be you know, just idolize Michael, then meet him then I was in his videos and stuff and become friends with him was an honor. You know I just loved to going to Neverland. We just go up there and we just be sitting in Michael’s living room and talking. All of a sudden a giraffe would just walk by the window (laughter).
(Acting surprised / shocked) I said “Michael what was that"?”.
(Mimicking Michael) “It’s my giraffe (laughter and applause) Do you want to meet him?”
I said “Yeah I want to meet him. Man I didn’t know you had a giraffe. Yeah.”

George: Here's what I like. the first time I saw you do stand-up there was a lot of Michael Jackson dancing, really a great impression of him. And then I just found out recently that you guys were pretty good friends.
Chris : Oh yeah man. I was blessed man. You know to grow up and to meet somebody I idolized and admired so much and become his friend. I was in one of his videos and stuff. Just love Michael. We became friends and I hang out with him a lot.
Michael was just so nice. You'll be around him, you'll just get happy. He would give you anything if you liked something.
I was just complimenting a flat screen TV and he gave it to me. (laughter)
I was like "Michael I didn't want the TV" (laughter)
But then the black came out of me and I started liking everything there. (laughter and applause)
I said "Michael I like that Rolls Royce. That's a bad Rolls Royce. Not the old one , the new Rolls Royce, right there" (laughter continues)
He was like (mimicking Michael) " You like it Chris?"
I said "Yeah I like it"
He said (mimicking Michael) " You sure you like it? "
I said "Yeah I like it"
He said (mimicking Michael) "You better go buy one, because I ain't giving you no Rolls Royce. I gave you a TV, damn".
