Michael Jackson secretly moved in with Bee Gees star Barry Gibb in the early 2000s and would get so drunk he'd pass out on the floor. The pop superstar still owned his Neverland ranch at the time, but made a discreet trip to Miami, Florida and set up home in Barry's spare room.
Barry revealed Jackson was a regular visitor and actually moved in with him and his family. Speaking back in 2014, he told The Mirror: "He would come to Miami and stay in our house. He’d sit in the kitchen and watch the fans outside his hotel on TV, just giggling – 'Hee hee!' He lived upstairs for a while."
