Michael Jackson paedo investigation cops were totally convinced superstar was sexually abusing young boys, Leaving Neverland producer claims

She told The Times she "absolutely" believes the two men, but says it's the fault of their parents for allowing them to sleep in a bed with the "very sweet" and "very childlike" Jackson.

Streisand, who once turned down the offer to sing a duet with the King of Pop, said: "His sexual needs were his sexual needs, coming from whatever childhood he has or whatever DNA he has.

"You can say 'molested', but those children, as you heard say [the grown-up Robson and Safechuck], they were thrilled to be there. They both married and they both have children, so it didn’t kill them."

She admitted she "feels bad" for both Jackson and his accusers as she asked why the parents didn't question the singer's need for "these little children dressed like him".

'DID YOU REALLY JUST SAY THAT?'

The 45-time Grammy nominee has been slammed on social media for her comments - including from Leaving Neverland director and producer Dan Reed.

He said: "'It didn’t kill them' @BarbraStreisand did you really say that?!"

New York Magazine and HuffPost writer Yashar Ali said: "I am sick to my stomach."

Founder of the Gaia Project for Women's Leadership, Elizabeth C McLaughlin, tweeted: "Barbra Streisand is cancelled. Forever. Dunzo."

'SUSTAINED ABUSE'

Leaving Neverland is a two-part, four-hour documentary which shows “gut-wrenching” interviews with James, now 40, and Wade, now 36, as well as their mothers, wives and siblings.

They claim they were aged just seven and ten when they were allegedly sexually abused by the star.

Channel 4 says the film is “a ­portrait of sustained abuse”, with the boys and their families “entranced by the star’s fairytale existence”.

Jackson, who died in 2009 of a drug overdose, strongly denied all allegations of sexual abuse made against him.
