Michael once pitched a collaboration with Duran Duran, but the group turned down the offer.
During an interview with "What Happens Live With Andy Cohen", where they were asked whether they had a friendship with Jackson back in the 1980s.
Nick Rhodes, a member of the British band Duran Duran, revealed a curious relationship with Michael Jackson.
Rhodes said he even received a phone call from Jackson:
"We should be in 1983. We went home after a tour. When I got home, my mom said, "There’s somebody on the phone for you, he says his name’s Michael Jackson".
Rhodes went on to say that he initially thought the call was a prank by a member of Duran Duran’s crew. “After about a minute I thought, ‘Oh my God, it is Michael Jackson isn’t it’,” he remembered.
The musician said that Jackson was “keen to make a record” together following the release of the group’s 1984 album ‘The Reflex’.
“I go to everyone, ‘Hey Michael Jackson called last night. Do you fancy maybe doing a song with him?’ he explained. “And they all went, ‘Nah’.
”We can imagine what this collaboration would have been like. It would certainly be success''
