Before I Would Hurt A Child, I

On Many Occasions When I Am Dancing I've Felt Touched By Something Sacred. In Those Moments, I Felt My Spirit Soar And Become One With Everything That Exists !

I'll Never Forget That Little Apple Box I Stood On Because I Couldn't Reach The Microphone. My Name Was Written On It And It's Sitting At Diana Ross's House Now. She Has All My Little Doodling Papers I Would Draw And Write.

Grinning, Ducking My Head For Balance, I Start To Spin Wildly As I Can. That Is My Favorite Dance, Because It Contains A Secret. The Faster I Twirl, The More I Am Still Inside. My Dance Is All Motion Without, All Silence Within. As Much As I Love To Make Music, It's The Unheard Music That Never Dies. And Silence Is My Real Dance, Though It Never Moves. It Stands Aside, My Choreographer Of Grace, And Blesses Each Finger And Toe.

I Have Spent My Entire Life Helping Millions Of Children Across The World. I Would Never Harm A Child. It Is Unfortunate That Some Individuals Have Seen Fit To Come Forward And Make A Complaint That Is Completely False. Years Ago, I Settled With Certain Individuals Because I Was Concerned About My Family And The Media Scrutiny That Would Have Ensued If I Fought The Matter In Court. These People Wanted To Exploit My Concern For Children By Threatening To Destroy What I Believe In And What I Do. I Have Been A Vulnerable Target For Those Who Want Money.

Children Are The Only Ones Who Don't Want Anything Of Me.
