Prince Jackson admits he didn’t inherit Michael‘s talent as he “can’t sing or dance” but he wants to heal the world just like his dad.
The King of Pop’s eldest son has thrown himself into charity work, but Prince is adamant he won’t be following in his famous father’s musical footsteps.
Prince, 20, made an appearance on “This Morning” on Monday to talk about his career in music video production and the charity he set up in memory of his dad, Heal LA.
The organization works to help abused children and the homeless in Los Angeles, and Prince admitted he thinks his late dad would be “proud” of him for all he has achieved.
He also made a big revelation about whether he inherited any of his dad’s musical genes, admitting he is not at all gifted musically – and can’t even do the Moonwalk.
Prince said: “I can’t sing, I can’t dance, I can’t do any of that.
“I’ve tried it [the Moonwalk] and it’s embarrassing, we can’t even talk about that.”
Prince, who was just a child when his dad died in 2009, added of his charity work: “We focus on child hunger, child abuse and homelessness in the Los Angeles area.
“We really structured it off of [Michael’s 1992 song] “Heal the World” but on a smaller scale to lead by example to say you don’t have to be a pop star or be very famous to make a difference.
“You can make a difference by going out and doing these things by yourself or with a group of friends in your own city.
Michael attempted to shield Prince, his sister Paris and their brother Blanket, from the spotlight when they were growing up, and the 20 year old admits he still prefers to shy away from fame.
He said: “I’m a very private person in my private life and I don’t like to reveal to the public things that aren’t appropriate.
“I decided to go into production because it’s still in the entertainment industry but behind the camera.”
Prince admitted he though his dad’s lifestyle was perfectly normal until he saw videos of people fainting at his show.
He added: “I thought it was normal at first but then we saw videos of him performing. People were fainting.
“One time we were outside the Dorchester [hotel in London] and lots of people were shouting and chanting his name and my dad sent out pizza and hot chocolate to them.”
Michael died in 2009 at the age of 50 just weeks before he was due to kick off a massive residency at the O2 Arena in London.
His doctor, Conrad Murray, was jailed after being found guilty of involuntary manslaughter for administering the fatal dose of powerful anesthetic Propofol.
Murray, 64, served two years in prison and was released in 2013.
