Wade Robson Will Have To Explain Several Gushing Interviews To Prove Molestation

[2good2btrue]

Famed Australian choreographer Wade Robson — who recently filed a creditor's claim against Michael Jackson's Estate in which he accuses the King of Pop of sexually abusing him as a child — is going to have to explain several gushing interviews he gave in the last several years in which he praised the Thriller singer and boasted about working for the Cirque du Soleil tribute to the entertainer, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

On July 30, 2011, Robson gave an interview in support of Pulse on Tour NYC, and said, "I'm starting on Cirque du Soleil, the Michael Jackson Show, so it's the equivalent of the Beetles Love Show, the Elvis Show, but for Michael, which is you know it's exciting and terrifying all at the same time because it's such a huge responsibility. But that is why I took it on, because he was such a huge part of my life for twenty years — before he passed — since I was seven. So it's an opportunity for me to give back a little to his legacy, such a big part of his legacy and make sure as much as I can that it's done right and represents his essence. So that is a really big undertaking."

As we previously reported, Robson was a star witness for Jackson at his infamous molestation trial in 2005, during which the Australian said he had NEVER been abused by the superstar singer.

Robson, now 30, first met Jackson when he was 5 and had several sleepovers at the Bad singer's Neverland Ranch — allegedly until he was 14.

In the court docs, obtained by RadarOnline.com, Robson's attorney stated in a sworn declaration that the claim should be sealed because of "childhood sexual abuse in the universal complaint for childhood sexual abuse as described in the unified complaint for childhood sexual abuse attached to the Creditor's claim."

Casting more doubt on Robson's new claims, in an interview with Master Class Legends — uploaded to You Tube in July, 2012 — the choreographer gushed about the time he spent with Jackson as a child.

In the interview, Robson recounts dancing on stage with Jackson at age seven, after winning a dance contest in which meeting & performing with the singer was the grand prize. He recalled being obsessed with Jackson's Thriller video at the young age of 2.

However, Robson recounted what fame and media scrutiny took a toll on Jackson.

"Particularly growing up with Michael, that is a whole other scale, that level of fame, and rightly so for all the amazing reasons, things and work did. But I saw how that tormented him as well. When I was really young, I idolized him, and wanted to be everything and anything he was on that sort of scale. Then as I was getting a little older, going through that experience (myself), kind of referring back to that sort of stuff I saw with Michael's life and realizing for me personally, I don't know if I want that particular version of life."

The timing of these interviews could be pivotal, if the judge allows the creditors claim to proceed, because the deadline has long since passed for those to be paid by the Estate.

Howard Weitzman, attorney for Michael Jackson's Estate, issued a statement after the claim was filed. "This is a young man who has testified at least twice under oath over the past 20 years and said in numerous interviews that Michael Jackson never did anything inappropriate to him or with him. Now, nearly four years after Michael has passed, this sad and less than credible claim has been made. We are confident that the court will see this for what it is."
