Peaches who is usually in news for her rock and roll lifestyle recalled the incident during an appearance on the UK show 'Celebrity Juice', saying that she has proof in the form of photographs, reported the Contactmusic.Com.

The 19-year-old daughter of legendary musician Bob Geldof spoke of the time when she met the "Thriller" singer while visiting Disneyland with her family.

She recounted the entire incident for the audience saying, "I was eight years old, I was at Disneyland with Pappy Geldof and family, we were all hanging out there, and somehow, for some reason, Michael Jackson was there doing some sort of promotional thing and he invited a load of kids who were staying in the Disney hotel, to come meet him.

"He was in this one room, and we went in and I was really excited and he was sitting on a huge throne at the end of the hall, flanked by Mickey and Goofy."

"The image is burned in my mind of him there, just like 'come closer', and I went and I sat on his lap and then he proceeded to stroke me and whisper in my ear a little bit. I've got photos to prove it. I've been stroked by Michael Jackson," Peaches told a shocked audience.
