Maybe ‘favourite pastime’ is a stretch, but it totally happened for YEARS!!

Michael Jackson is overall probably one of the greatest celebrity mysteries ever! But we know one thing is for sure – He. Loved. Prank calling!!

Michael probably had the biggest contact list ever, so we can probably imagine the crazy situations he got himself into! Except for the fact that his favourite (and only) victim was Russell Crowe…

Russell spoke about it in an interview, and said the prank calls  went on “For two or three f–king years. I never met him, never shook his hand, but he found out the name I stayed in hotels under, so it didn’t matter where I was, he’d ring up do this kind of thing, like you did when you were 10, you know.”

So what were the stellar jokes THE Michael Jackson came up with?? “Is Mr Wall there? Is Mrs Wall there? Are there any Walls there? Then what’s holding the roof up? Ha ha.”

Russell Crowe also said that would get the occasional ring from Michael in a strong voice saying “‘There is an emergency and you need to leave the building.’ I’d ask, ‘Who is this?’ And he’d say, ‘Do not worry Russell, just kidding, this is Michael.'” 

THIS IS A REVELATION. It’s only a matter of time before dozens of celebrities come froward and say the same thing. I can feel it.

Do you ever ask yourself, ‘Hey, I wonder what celebrities do for fun?!’ Well, THIS is it. I don’t think us normal folks are missing out that much!
