Jane Fonda raised plenty eyebrows during her appearance on “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.” Promoting her then-new film, “Book Club: The Next Chapter,” Fonda played a game of “Plead the Fifth”, where she spilled the beans about a pretty wild encounter with the “King of Pop” himself, Michael Jackson.

Fonda said her and Jackson’s unusual escapade took place during the early ’80s. The beloved actress disclosed that she had peeped Jackson in his birthday suit. Yep, you read that right! A gasp echoed through the studio as Fonda shared this surprising tidbit. The host, Andy Cohen, couldn’t hide his surprise, quickly urging Fonda to continue her tale.

According to Fonda, the situation went down on ‘a beautiful moonlit night’ at her cozy lakeside cottage while she was filming “On Golden Pond.” As their candid conversation unfolded, Fonda revealed that it was actually Jackson who suggested they go skinny-dipping. Fonda’s laughter filled the room as she detailed her astonishment at the proposition.

When Cohen asked the reason behind Jackson’s audacious request, Fonda proposed an odd, yet interesting theory. She believed that MJ knew his life would be cut short, and so he wanted Fonda to have a memorable anecdote to share, even if it involved him in his birthday suit:

“I think because he knew he was going to die young and I would talk about him, being naked,” she explained as the audience laughed. “He was skinny!”

Cohen, respecting Jackson’s memory, tactfully refrained from probing further…although we’re pretty sure everyone who was watching, wished he would’ve done the exact opposite in that moment.

Fonda’s story garnered quite the reaction from the audience and fans alike. The actress had managed to shock and amuse everyone with her candid account of a truly crazy amazing encounter with the most famous entertainer on the globe.

This isn’t the only interesting story Fonda shared during her time on the show. When asked about a man in Hollywood who had made advances toward her but was turned down, Fonda cheekily revealed that it was the French director, René Clément. She described how he approached her:

Fonda said, “He wanted to go to bed with me because he said the character had to have an orgasm in the movie, and he needed to see what my orgasms were like. He said it in French, and I pretended I didn’t understand.” Fonda smiled as she recounted pretending not to understand, displaying her quick wit and charm.

She summed all this up to Cohen with a statement no one could deny:

“I have stories for you kid, we don’t have time,” Jane joked with a smile on her face.

Jane Fonda certainly knows how to captivate an audience with her captivating stories. With her humorous personality, she leaves us eagerly waiting on her next surprising revelation. Luckily, this entertaining legend always has more stories to share.
