THE REAL BILLIE JEAN
The story of Theresa Gonsalves and Michael Jackson has been told on a few occassions. You
may have read a little about their relationship in Randy Taraborelli's book "Michael Jackson
the Magic and the Madness" or you may have seen a little of their story on the VH1 Special,
"Childhood Secrets of Michael Jackson!"

Theresa's relationship with Michael Jackson began when she was twelve years old. She
became "obsessed" with him and wrote him numerous letters until they met in Las Vegas for
her sixteenth birthday! The obsession continued as they stayed in touch from that point on.
Their worlds have continuously gone full circle always leading back to each other. At their
last meeting Theresa was able to introduce her son Mychal (named after Michael Jackson) to
him. Michael was genuinely interested in his well being. He had his own kids with him as
well. However, it was Theresa's oldest son Todd that was the controversy behind the hit
song Billie Jean. Her friendship with Michael was such that she confided in him about all
aspects of her life. In detailing her situation about her baby's daddy...Michael wrote the
song Billie Jean about her! While Theresa and Michael spent lots of intimate moments
together that they choose not to share with the world, the kid is NOT his son!! Some of
their intimacies, however, are detailed in Theresa's book OBSESSIONS as it was her
obsessive relationship with Michael Jackson that led her into the obsessive relationship that
almost killed her!

In 1984 Star Magazine revealed to Ms. Gonsalves as the REAL BILLIE JEAN!!!
