Critic Barbra Streisand was criticized after saying that the men who accused Michael Jackson of badaulting them as boys were not "killed" by this experience.
Streisand thinks they've been badaulted, but she added that they were also "delighted" to go to Jackson's Neverland Ranch, while they'd have been badaulted several times, did they? she told the London Times in an interview published Friday.
She also said that she blamed the parents of molested children.
In the disturbing HBO documentary "Leaving Neverland," 36-year-old Wade Robson and 40-year-old James Safechuck described in detail what had happened to them when they were young boys during their visit. in Jackson.
"We can say" molested ", but these children (…) were delighted to be there," said 76-year-old Streisand. "They both married and they both have children, so it did not kill them.
She said that the boys' experience was "painful," but she added that she also felt "sorry" for Jackson.
"Her badual needs were her badual needs, from her childhood or her DNA," she told the paper.
"I feel bad for the kids. I feel bad for him. I guess I blame the parents, who would allow their children to sleep with him, "she added.
Streisand met Jackson "several times" and described him as "very kind, very childish". She declined her offer to duet on "I just can not stop liking".
The singer defended the Me Too movement, calling it "powerful". She warned, however, that women may not be hired because men will "fear being attacked", which apparently means charges of badual misconduct.
Twitter's reaction was quick.
Dan Reed, the director of "Finding Neverland", simply asked, "Did you really say that?"

Oh my God no. It's horrible. I feel sick. @Barbra Streisand is my idol and I respect her so much. It breaks my heart that she says that. Because it's such a bad and hurtful thing to say. Ugh. https://t.co/emlO9qAxCW
