Speaking on British TV quiz show "Celebrity Juice," the 19-year-old blonde said: "I was eight years old. I was at Disneyland with my family."

"Michael Jackson was there doing some sort of promotional thing. He invited a load of kids who were staying in the Disney hotel to come meet him."

"He was sitting on a huge throne at the end of the hall, flanked by Mickey and Goofy. The image is burned in my mind of him there."

"I went and I sat on his lap and then he proceeded to stroke me and whisper in my ear a little bit. I've got photos to prove it. I've been stroked by Michael Jackson!"

Meanwhile, Michael has increased his London residency. The 50-year-old pop star - who was cleared of child sex abuse allegations in 2005 - had initially agreed to play 10 shows at The 02 arena, but due to overwhelming demand added a further 20 concerts yesterday.

Today, a further 14 nights have been added bringing the total at the time of writing to 45 and extending his stay in the U.K. capital until 2010.

Concert promoters AEG Live will not yet confirm the final total and are planning to add further dates.
