So now we all know Jacko once showed lil' Corey Feldman a book about veneral diseases. Could be very damaging testimony, if MJ's defense team didn't have their own superstar witnesses: Deepak Chopra, Larry King, Ed Bradley, Maury Povich, etc...

According to the LA Times the deputy DA has been asking potential jurors: "Would the testimony of someone like an Elizabeth Taylor influence you disproportionately?"

No way, each of them replied. As if to underscore the point, a silver-haired 62-year-old man misidentified Deepak Chopra, one of Jackson's possible witnesses, as a rap star.

Deepak Chopra of course is more of a New Age bullshit artist than a rap star. But if you saw 20/20, you know Corey Feldman is secretly a rock star. Average Amazon.com customer review for Corey Feldman's Truth Movement is 3.5 stars.

Recommended if you're a fan of music by Alyssa Milano, Kevin Bacon, Joe Pesci, Don Johnson, Leonard Nimony, and Miles Davis.
