Velvet Revolver and Guns n’ Roses legend Slash has said that he refused to let Michael Jackson near his two-year-old son when they met in London.

The guitarist – real name Saul Hudson - says that although he believed Jacko was innocent until proven guilty with his child abuse charges, he still wouldn’t let his child near the King of Pop.

He tells this month’s Uncut magazine: "You know, I give the benefit of the doubt to Michael on everything - innocent until proven guilty and whatnot - but I was thinking, okay Michael, you figure out your shit and I'll hold on to my son!"

Jackson, of course, was acquitted of all child abuse charges when he went on trial in 2005.

  • Is there really any kid out there who’d want to go near Michael Jackson - seriously he should come with an age guidance sticker like Freddy Krueger!

  • oh grow up. stop listening to the media like its gospel. Michael was acquitted on every single charge. The entire case was a farce. Do some research and find out for yourselves. Michael is a nice man who would give his life to make any child happy. Get the facts or dont comment at all.
