“‘Well, isn’t this a thriller,” Reagan began his remarks. So many reporters and WH staff wanted to see MJ, Reagan said ‘I haven’t seen this many people since we left China.’ Reagan called MJ: ‘one of the most talented, most popular, and most exciting super stars in the music world today.’ Reagan told MJ he had a message for him from young folks: ‘They said to tell Michael, Please give some TLC to the PYTs. I know that sounds alittle off the wall, but you know what I mean.”

Later on he was presented an award.
