Overview
- Sharing the anecdote in a YouTube interview with Yordi Rosado, Sodi said Jackson was withdrawn in a room at a New York gathering and speaking softly while covering his mouth.
- Sodi recounted knocking, introducing herself and telling him, “Come on, we’re all downstairs,” after which she says he came down and joined the celebration.
- The clip spread quickly on social platforms, where reactions split between ridicule and support and where many users compared Sodi’s tale to Martha Higareda’s hard-to-believe celebrity stories.
- Commenters pointed to Michael Jackson’s ties to music executive Tommy Mottola, Thalía’s husband, and some outlets suggested the event may have been the couple’s New York wedding around 2000.
- Sodi acknowledged she does not recall Jackson’s exact words, and coverage noted the viral moment coincides with renewed attention from the first trailer for the biopic “Michael,” starring Jaafar Jackson.
