    @MissieElliot09 Michael had Janet there to repeat the questions in order to protect himself from the journalist asking invasive, humiliating questions. He felt if a journalist knew a little girl was going to have to repeat these questions to her big brother, they wouldn't ask inappropriate questions.

    EXACTLY as it was depicted in the biography "The Magic, the Madness, The Whole Story," by J. Randy Taraborelli. He hated interviews. He prefered not to do them, but album promoters insisted that he do them. Doing them in this manner allowed him to be somewhat comfortable, while at the same time drastically sabotaging the interviewer's intentions. Funny guy.

    I noticed that Michael is really humble. Even though he is a true genius and he knew it too, he still attribute his success to people around him. He said he learned alot from Motown and said it was the best school for him. I bet that it is that kind of attitude that drove him to achieve more and more in his life. I admire this trait.

    I just read in a book that MJ was contractually unable to directly talk to the media at one time, so he recruited Janet to relay and answer questions during interviews. It was his way around the contract - he was not talking to the media, Janet was. Very slick, very very slick. :)

    It was his way of showing his independence. He was coming into a it's my way or the highway type of attitude, because for most of his life, all the decisions were made for him, whether he agreed with them or not. So by telling the interviewer that it will be done this way, he was bangin' on his chest and asserting his grown up status. To us, it's strange, to him, he was finally in control of his life.

    Going off of what LMETeef was saying, this is around the time that Michael was pissed off at the media and the circumstances with his family and whatnot, so this was his way of getting back at everyone and taking control: the media got their interviews, but Mike didnt have to talk to them directly. He did it this way for a few interviews. (J. Randy Taraborrelli, author of one of MJ's bios, said he was one of the interviewers during this period, but got frustrated with this process and ended it.)

    I can think of a couple of other reasons why he might want Janet to translate: 1) It gave him more time to think & formulate a better answer (sometimes politicians use this technique even when they understand a foreign language they like to use a translator to give them more time to think); and/or 2) If he had a mild auditory processing issue (e.g. associated with an ASD), he might have had an easier time understanding family members who he was used to.

    I think this interview was talked about in the book Michael Jackson: The Magic and the Madness. Apparently, Michael did eccentric things at times. In this case, he did not want to talk directly to the interviewer, so he told him the only way he would do an interview is if it was through his little sister Janet. I think the interviewer was author Taraborrelli.

    I'm reading the book "Michael Jackson, the magic and the madness" by Taraborelli. And there he recalls having an interview with Michael just like this, Janet acting as the go-between. And even though the question to why he wants it like this never is answered, but the author (who met Michael and his family a lot) think that it might have been a way for Michael to take control. Especially since his father and brothers never did as he wanted to. His voice was never heard while in the Jackson 5.
