After the Dance: Conversations on Michael Jackson's Black America




in the first video at around 85:30 they start talking about MJ's sex appeal. They mention the Beyonce story (about him wanting to meet her and liking her booty,) and they talk about how at that same event, Michael asked one of his people to get another girl's phone number. They also talk about how both Teddy Riley and LA Reid saw "fine ass women" hanging with Michael in the studio.
So not exactly new information, but it reinforces things we've all come to know, and it makes me happy whenever this kind of talk about MJ is put out there in the public arena.
I also liked Toure's comparison of MJ's innocent image to that of the male Twilight character to explain Michael's deliberate attempt to appeal to the masses, especially to young females.
