Creator of The Simpsons, Matt Groening, has revealed details about one of the most famous cameos on his show.

 

Back in 1991, Michael Jackson was believed to have recorded a cameo on the long-running animation, where he played a balding, overweight patient in a psychiatric ward, alongside Homer Simpson, in the episode Stark Raving Dad.

 

While the character sported a high-pitched voice and had the singing pipes of the late King of Pop, the storyline riffed on the notion it was Michael, before he admitted he was a phoney all along.

 

Many a rumour has surrounded the character’s voice, with some claiming it was Michael Jackson himself talking, however someone else was brought in to sing.
