Michael Jackson wanted to essay the role of James Bond, celebrity agent Michael Ovitz has revealed in his memoir. In "Who Is Michael Ovitz? A Memoir", the famed showbiz representative writes that the King of Pop expressed his desire to be "the star of an action movie" during a meeting at his home.
According to Metro.co.uk, Ovitz said he and business partner Ron Meyer thought Jackson was joking. He said the situation became even more comical when the "Thriller" hit maker's hat fell into a dish of guacamole.
The industry heavyweight said Jackson continued his pitch despite a blob of guacamole sliding down his hat. "Then the blob fell off, and Ron totally lost it. I cracked up, too, and Michael stalked out.
