Michael Jackson Confused About Organic Chicken

David Gest has claimed his close friend Michael Jackson is confused when it comes to what makes chicken organic.

The TV producer and personality made it clear that he has nothing but respect for the singer, but finds it hilarious that Jacko is mistaken about the meat: "I've been best friends with Michael for 40 years and I will defend his reputation until the day I die," Gest says.

"When we hang out we visit antique stores, play Frisbee and go to KFC - [but] he thinks if you peel the skin off the chicken, it makes it organic. He cracks me up."
