Aaron Paul Jimmy Kimmel Live: Need For Speed Star Reveals Getting Drunk With Michael Jackson And The Prince of Brunei, Actor Says, ‘It Was Bizarre!’
When Aaron Paul made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the "Need for Speed" star revealed his experience hanging out with the late Michael Jackson. We all know how huge the King of Pop was and to get a chance to meet him in person must have been really awesome!
Before the "Breaking Bad" actor gained international fame, he already had a fan back in Brunei - and that is no other than the prince of that nation. Paul shared to Kimmel, "My buddy got invited to the Prince of Brunei's birthday party outside of London at this castle, and I was his plus one."
When the prince saw the "Need for Speed" star, he recognized him right away from his early projects. According to Paul, the prince's reaction was "Oh my God! You played Floyd in Whatever It Takes." He continued his narration and said, "He took a liking to me and we just sort of ran around playing with sheep."
Aaron Paul revealed on Jimmy Kimmel Live how he found that moment really weird. But what made the story more interesting is when Michael Jackson appeared on the scene. The 34-year old actor narrated, "So I go down to this giant library and the prince is inside the library with Michael Jackson." He added, "It was Michael, the Prince and I talking for about an hour."
When Kimmel asked Paul what their conversation was all about, he said that they talked about life, growing up, and forgiveness. But all throughout that conversation, the actor wanted to remove the "M" sticker on the King of Pop's shirt. He said, "I just wanted to take it off so bad! But no one wanted to bring it up."
So after chitchatting with the late singer and the prince, the actor started to reveal all the crazy things that happened that night. He said, "Then that night, Michael, myself, and the Prince and about 10 other people got pretty drunk in the library bar. It was so bizarre!" He added, "We did shots of Tequila all night!"
