His sexuality was one of the many topics consistently put under the microscope by the press, but late pop legend Michael Jackson was a normal, heterosexual man, says some of his  most trusted security advisors.
Bill Whitfield, a former employee of the “Thriller” star, was talking about his boss on US television show “Good Morning America” yesterday, alongside two other ‘inner circle’ staffers, Mike Garcia and Javon ‘BJ’ Beard. Whitfield admitted Jackson suffered under speculation over his sexuality, and in particular the child molestation charges back in 2003.  “Being a man, men know men, and we were around him long enough to know he was a man,” Whitfield insisted.
“He had desires of women like we do,” Garcia added. “He had lovers. In the cars that we had, we had a curtain that covered the back seat. You couldn’t see in the back seat. They talked back there; they didn’t do nothing out of bounds. You could hear the kissing.”
The three men also shared their tales of Jackson’s commitment to being a father to his three children, Prince Michael, 13, Paris, 11, and eight-year-old Prince Michael II (aka Blanket). Part of the security team’s job was to shield the children from negative press about their father. When near newsstands, shared Whitfield, “I’d be ahead of him, because I know he’s coming this way, and I’m looking at magazine racks that may have something about him on them and I’ll turn it around. Sometimes he’d see them, and you would actually see him take them and turn them around so the kids didn’t see them.”
