*Jane Fonda appeared on “Watch What Happens Live” Monday and recalled the time she saw Michael Jackson naked.
The moment happened in 1980, when Jackson was 22 years old and he visited the Hollywood legend on the set of a film she was shooting, Page Six reports.
“He came and visited me when we were shooting ‘On Golden Pond,’ and I had a little cottage right on the lake, and it was a beautiful, moonlit night,” said Fonda.
“And you said, ‘Let’s skinny-dip,’” host Andy Cohen suggested. “No, he did!” Fonda responded, adding “He was skinny!”
“I’m not going to ask anything else about it because I want to be respectful of Michael,” Cohen replied.

Meanwhile, Jackson, who died at age 50 in 2009, is the subject of a new Audible and Wondery’s series called “Think Twice: Michael Jackson,” which is now available on Audible and ad-free for Prime members on the Amazon Music app.
The 10-episode audio series is a journalistic, 360-degree look at Jackson’s complicated legacy, hailing from acclaimed journalist and podcaster Leon Neyfakh and hip-hop radio veteran Jay Smooth.
In a statement, Neyfakh said, “To me, Michael Jackson is the most interesting person who has ever lived. But what Jay and I realized as we dove into this project was that his story is not just about him, but everyone he influenced with his art, and everyone connected to his tortured personal life. It’s also about the moral calculations we make as consumers of culture, as we decide for ourselves what to believe and what to look away from. Collaborating with Audible and Wondery on this journalistic exploration of Michael’s life and legacy has given me a better, deeper understanding of why this singular artist still matters, and more broadly, how American pop culture works.”
Jay Smooth added, “When Leon reached out to me about collaborating on a Michael Jackson documentary series, I won’t lie, I was equal parts intrigued and alarmed. But as we both agreed to be up front about our own complex feelings on Michael’s legacy, and let that guide our process of gathering all these different voices and perspectives, I quickly came to see just how rich and rewarding this show would become. Both as a fresh look back at the Michael Jackson story, and even more so as a way to understand—through Michael’s life and afterlife—how our world and culture evolved around him.”
