The interviewer then asked Barr about Presley’s relationship with Jackson. “She said he was the best lay she ever had,” said Barr. When the interviewer replied with disbelief, Barr reiterated it. “He had it going on. She said he told her all the things girls want to hear.” 

Barr went further, revealing that Presley also shared details about “Nicolas Cage and his business.”

Presley and Jackson started dating around 1994, becoming one of the era’s most notorious couples. While the two met when they were young, they got together after Presley’s divorce from Danny Keough.

Presley wrote about the relationship in her memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown, which was completed by her daughter Riley Keough posthumously. 

“Michael said,’ I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I’m completely in love with you. I want us to get married and for you to have my children,’” Presley wrote. “I didn’t say anything immediately, but then I said, ‘I’m really flattered, I can’t even talk.’ By then, I felt I was in love with him too.”

Presley made some revelations in her memoir.  “He told me he was still a virgin,” she wrote. “I think he had kissed Tatum O’Neal, and he’d had a thing with Brooke Shields, which hadn’t been physical apart from a kiss. He said Madonna had tried to hook up with him once, too, but nothing happened. I was terrified because I didn’t want to make the wrong move.” 

The pair were married for 2 years, divorcing in 1996.
