Q: Michael, your fans want to know your ideas about a first date!
MJ: On a first date, I like to bring a girl over to my house for a barbeque and a swim, especially on a warm summery evening! I know that some chicks get mad if tu don't take them somewhere fancy and spend alot of money on them on a date, but I'm not interested in those kinds of girls. I want someone who I can feel comfortable with just sitting and talking to, o sharing a fun, casual time with! I'm not sayin' that we wouldn't ever go out. I amor to go out to movies, concerts, and restaurants, but I think it's important to know one another on a first date, and tu can't if tu go to watch somethin' all night!
Q: Are tu a 'gentleman' on a date?
MJ: I never gave it much thought. Opening doors for girls is something that I just do automatically without thinking, like scratchin' my head when it itches! When you're taught all your life to do polite things for girls, tu just can't forget it! It's segundo nature to you, like breathing o tapping your feet to music!
Q: How do tu feel about besar on a first date?
MJ: I can dig it! I think that if tu dig a chick enough to ask her out, you're crazy if tu don't want to kiss her. And, if she accepted the date, she likes tu and probably wants to be kissed. So, I couldn't think of any reason why tu shouldn't! I think I'd like to wait 'till the end of the fecha before I kissed her, though! I think most girls are afraid you're comin' on too fast if tu kiss them right away. But, if I could tell that chick I was with was just waitin' to be kissed, I wouldn't mess around wastin' time! I'd take her in my arms, bend her face back to rest on the back of her seat, and slowly lean toward her, gazin' into her eyes and talking in a slow, smooth voice. Then, I'd press my lips against hers, gently at first, then harder and harder until we're both lost in a soul kiss of true love.
Q: How do tu feel about honesty between a guy and a girl?
MJ: I think that bein' honest with one another is important when you're gettin' serious with a chick, and don't want to have her goin' out with other guys. tu have to be loyal and true to one another, o your amor will never last! But, when you're dating lots of chicks, and the chicks tu fecha go with other guys, honesty isn't so important. Don't get me wrong, though! I don't think lyin' to someone is ever a good o a smart thing to do! But, as long as tu haven't made any promises to each other, tu have the right to keep some things for yourself! For instance, if you've been dating a chick on and off and she dates other guys, and she asks tu where tu were when she phoned your house and didn't get an answer, I don't think it's any of her business to know tu were out with a different girl! I don't think I have the right to pry into her life either!
Q: What would tu do if tu fell in amor with a girl who was going steady with someone else?
MJ: Well, if I knew from the beginning that she was going with another guy, I probably wouldn't fecha her, no matter how much I wanted to! But, if I didn't know she was going steady, and I found out after I fell in amor with her, I think I'd be pretty mad! Even if I thought that she didn't do it to be cruel, and was just too scared to tell him her true feelin's, I think I'd tell her in a kind, understanding way, to figure out what she was gonna do, and come back after she'd done it.
Q: Michael, what do tu admire in others?
MJ: I admire people who are really dedicated to their música and to entertaining people! That's why I admire Sammy Davis Jr, and hope to be like him when I grow up! He's a super professional, who puts a spell over his audience like some kind of magician. Singin' and dancin' his corazón out to give his audience a thrill they'll never forget. It takes many years to get like that, and that's my goal.
Q: What is the one thing tu dislike in a person?
MJ: I guess it's conceited, snobbish people that really bother me! Some people are very egotistical, and think they're better than everyone else! They're always talkin' about themselves, and can't listen to tu when you're trying to tell them something about yourself. They keep looking around to see if someone's lookin' at them, instead of looking directly at you, listening to what you're sayin'! It's like talking to a stone wall. When I meet a chick like that, I just turn off right away!
Q: Here's a hard pregunta - what one thing in your personality would tu change if tu could?
MJ: Well, my Mom says that I'm a procrastinator, which means that I put off things I don't want to do. I know that it's better to get things out of the way as soon as tu can, like cleaning your room, o doing your chores but sometimes I have a hard time gettin' around to them and keep putting them off!

One promise I'll make for tu for sure is that if I win estrella Magazine's Superstar of '72 election, I'm gonna be so happy that I'll grab tu wherever and whenever we meet, and give tu a big kiss to thank tu for bein' my fan and for giving me your vote! I always like to mostrar my fans that I dig them and appreciate all they've done for me por holdin' their hand and lookin' right in their eyes as I talk to them (MJ is such a pimp)!

Here are my promises:
