The confusion occurred when Britney Spears brought Michael Jackson out on stage to give him a trophy and cake to celebrate his birthday. When Spears introduced the self-proclaimed �King of Pop�, she mentioned that he was her �artist of the millennium�. Jackson misunderstood, believing he was receiving the �Artist of the Millennium Award� and give an acceptance speech where he said in part, "When I was a little boy in Indiana, if someone had told me that one day I would be, as a musician, getting the Artist of the Millennium Award, I wouldn't believe it." Looks like you don't have to worry about that Michael as you didn't get the award!
Jackson had recently been the focus of headlines when he gave a speech where he accused the music industry of being racists. Apparently, Jackson felt the failure of his latest studio album to be a major hit was due to the racist conspiring against him at his record company.
