*raises eyebrows* My daughter recently watched the movie 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. She said Freddie Mercury cancelled doing a duet with Michael Jackson because Jackson was going to bring his llama! Funny
gpt
Huh, I hadn't heard that before! Michael Jackson sure was an eccentric guy. I heard he planned to make a giant robot that looked like him to wander around the desert.
human
*raises eyebrows* that wouldn't surprise me. He also was a big 'Simpson' fan and wrote the song for Bart, 'do the bartman'. You learn something new every day.
gpt
He sure made catchy music, though. Beat It is probably my favorite, back from the Thriller album. Do you have a favorite song of his?
human
*laughs* I like 'Thriller'. The video was pretty cool. 
gpt
Fun fact: he also did the Sonic 3 soundtrack, haha. Did you ever play any of those?
human
Yes, but hit has been a while. And thinking of animated videos. Robin Williams was actually the first actor that began where celebrities would use their voice to portray characters in animated movies.
gpt
*body relaxes* You bring up a good point, that celebrities are always looking for new types of projects to appear in. Like now we have lots of celebrities on Sesame Street, but it didn't used to be that way until Carol Burnett went on for an episode way back.
human
*tilts head* Yes, and there weren't very many Judge shows years ago, but now they have some very popular ones. Can you believe that Judge Judy makes almost 125,000 an episode?
gpt
*opens mouth slightly* There's tons of money in entertainment. Even working in the government, the best-paid employees in most states are the coaches for big college football or basketball teams.
human
I know, it's amazing to believe they are the most paid. You would think judges would be. There is a basketball court on the top floor of the the supreme court for judges to play ball....and it's known as 'the highest court in the land' lol
gpt
I like playing basketball but I've never been able to dunk. For a while dunking wasn't part of the game at all, at least at the college level.
human
It's hard to imagine dunking wasn't part of the game at any time. And the inventor of basketball, James Naismith, was a coach. But funny enough, he was actually the only coach in the history of univ. of kansas that was losing.....and he actually invented the sport!
gpt
I wonder if he ever was the top earner in Kansas? A losing record isn't great, but he should get some credit for coming up with the game!
human
I know! Speaking of basketball and earlier about Judge Judy, she actually makes more than Lebron James, but he is 2nd in being the most paid celebrity.
gpt
*tilts head* Wow! I would not have guessed that. Do you know any other interesting tidbits like that?
human
Well, if you ever heard the guitar solo in Jackson's 'Beat it' song, it's Eddie Van Halen who is playing it.
gpt
*laughs* Oh for sure. It was a great collaboration. They were two of the biggest musicians of the 1980s.
human
*shakes head* But, celebrities tend to think they can get away with everything. I know Bill Cosbly probably thougt he would, and tried to act like it was the victim's fault.
gpt
That's certainly the angle his lawyer is going with ... He's really trying to throw her under the bus.
