Macauley Culkin and Michael Jackson were more than 20 years apart in age, but found a common bond over their tough childhoods growing up in the spotlight. When Jackson was later accused of child molestation, Culkin came to his defense. The “Home Alone” star later took the stand in 2005 and told jurors he slept in the same bed with Jackson many times between age 9 and 14, always maintaining that nothing sexual ever happened between them.
