Corey Feldman Interview

The actor Corey Feldman, who starred in Lost Boys and The Goonies, has been ordered to testify at the trial of Michael Jackson; after describing in a TV interview his visits to the singer's home as a teenager.

Feldman told journalist, Martin Bashir, how Mr Jackson showed him a book with pictures of naked men and women.

Feldman is now questioning how appropriate his relationship with the singer was.

Mr Feldman's television interview with Bashir will be shown tonight in the US on ABC's 20/20 show.

In the interview he talked about a book that was on display at Neverland, when he visited at the age of 13; quote:

"The book was focused on venereal diseases and the genitalia...(Jackson) sat down with me and he explained it to me, showed me some different pictures and discussed what those meant...".

Mr Feldman said at the time that he did not see the event as "a big deal" but had started to question it, in the light of child abuse allegations facing Mr Jackson.

He noted that Jackson had never touched him inappropriately during their friendship, and defended him to police during the 1993 investigation into abuse allegations.
