Michael Jackson is gone and new claim is out: Dancer Wade Robson claims Michael Jackson molested him for years

When Michael Jackson was alive, Wade Robson testified in his defense during his child molestation trial. Four years after his death, Wade is claiming he was sexually abused by Michael.

The popular Australian choreographer and former close friend of the late pop legend claimed last week that Michael Jackson sexually abused him from ages 7 through 14, when he regularly stayed at Neverland Ranch. He has filed a lawsuit against the Estate of Michael Jackson asking for compensation for years of abuse.

Wade appeared on the Today Show today and went into detail about his abuse. Wade told Matt Lauer:

"I've lived in silence and denial for 22 years and I can't spend another moment in that...."

"...Michael Jackson was yes, an incredibly talented artist with an incredible gift. He was many things. And he was also a pedophile and a child sexual abuser. He performed sexual acts on me and forced me to perform sexual acts on him."

Well, Michael isn't here to defend himself. And now he wants money? Hmmm. Who believes him? Watch the Today Show interview after the cut...
