Liberace’s former lover is opening up about an affair he had with Michael Jackson.

Scott Thorson, whose memoir about his relationship with the rhinestone-loving Liberace inspired HBO flick “Behind the Candelabra,” claims that he and the King of Pop had a years’-long romantic relationship.

“Liberace introduced me and Michael in the late 1970s,” Thorson, 54, told The Sun. “It was right around the time ‘Thriller’ was coming out and Michael and I became lovers.”

Thorson also says that Jackson joined Liberace at his compound in Palm Springs to heal after undergoing plastic surgery at the same time.

He first spoke out about the affair to The National Enquirer in 2004, when he described his initial sexual encounter with Jackson at the home of the late British female impersonator Danny La Rue.

“I was standing only a few feet away from Michael when he motioned with his hand to come over to him and join him in bed,” Thorson told the tabloid. “I climbed onto the bed. Our lovemaking session lasted about an hour.”

(At the time of the report, Jackson’s attorney Steve Cochran denied the report to the Daily News, calling Thorson’s story is “false trash.”)

But Thorson’s interview for The Sun maintains that the extent of the affair was much longer than a few quick trysts, as he once said.

“Our relationship went on for six or seven years,” Thorson told the newspaper. “Michael was very generous, too. He treated me well.”

Though Thorson is enjoying a moment of recognition, thanks to HBO’s Liberace biopic, he was only able to see the Hollywood representation of his life after a brothel owner bailed him out from jail last Sunday.

 

Scott Thorson, 54, was recently bailed out of a jail in Reno by a brothel owner.

Scott Thorson, 54, was recently bailed out of a jail in Reno by a brothel owner.

Thorson, reportedly thrown in the slammer while awaiting sentencing for burglary charges, is now comfortably residing at the Bunny Ranch, and admired the actors’ representation of his former flashy lifestyle.

“Matt Damon did a great job playing me. And he did a great job in bed with Douglas, too,” Thorson joked to The Sun. “I needed to see Jason Bourne on top of Gordon Gekko.”

But Thorson also has quibbles with the amount of money that the studio is paying him for the movie, and harbors resentment against the A-listers in the flick who wouldn’t put down money to get Thorson out from behind bars.

“Hollywood turned its back on me. Matt Damon or Michael Douglas would not bail me out, even though I offered to talk to them about the film,” Thorson complained.

“I didn’t make much out of the movie. I own a small percentage of the film, but Hollywood is notorious for padding the bill so its shows no profit,” he continued. “It has been a big success, all these European companies have picked it up. So for the filmmakers to say they haven’t made a dime would be a big mistake — especially with my mouth.”

“I went after Liberace,” Thorson said, referring to his $113 million suit against the popular performer, who died in 1986. “So I’m not scared.”
