Michael Jackson predicted coronavirus-like pandemic and that’s why he wore a facemask

The bodyguard of Michael Jackson, Matt Fiddes, has claimed that the late pop star had predicted a coronavirus-like global pandemic and that was the reason he used to wear a facemask.

Fiddes who served the pop star over a period of 10 years, claimed the prediction of the “King of Pop” as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread across worldwide, according to reports.

“Michael Jackson knew that a natural disaster was always there. He was very aware and would always predict that we could be wiped out at any time. That a germ that could spread,” he said.

“So he would go through four countries in one day sometimes and he was on aeroplanes with people all the time,” he added.

Fiddes shared that once he’d jokingly ask Michael not to wear the facemask because he feel embarrassed about being clicked with him when he was wearing it.

He revealed that Michael Jackson responded to him as saying, “Matt I can’t get ill, I can’t let my fans down. I’ve got concerts coming up. I’m on this earth for a reason. I mustn’t damage my voice, I’ve got to stay healthy, I don’t know who I’m going to encounter today, I don’t know what I might pass on”.
