Choreogapher Wade Robson branded Michael Jackson a 'pedophile' on US TV yesterday.

The star previously denied allegations of abuse against him, and had stayed at Michael Jackson's Neverland ranch over 20 times as a child, sleeping mostly in Jackson's bedroom. A member of staff in 2005 claimed she had seen Jackson behaving inappropriately towards Robson but he denied it.

However, he is now suing Jackson's estate, claiming that he did suffer abuse from the star. Robson is saying that Jackson molested him from when he was 7 to age 14, and that he "performed sexual acts on me and forced me to perform sexual acts on him".

Robson branded Jackson a 'pedophile' yesterday (16 May) while on US TV, and added, "I’ve never forgotten what Michael did to me."

The member of staff was maid Blanca Francia, who had said that she had seen him in the shower with Jackson at the ranch. The now 57-year-old has said that she feels 'vindicated', said, "I stand by every word I have ever said.

Howard Weitzman, a lawyer for Jacko’s estate, hit out by calling the claim 'pathetic', adding, "We are confident that the court will see this for what it is."
