Jackson 'built tunnel to avoid people'

Michael Jackson's former vocal coach has revealed that the star "had a tunnel built" so that he could avoid 'speaking to his staff'.

Yvie Burnett claimed that the late singer was the 'rudest celebrity'.

According to Metro, the X Factor coach said: "I remember a long time ago, I was working with Michael Jackson and he had a tunnel built which took him from the stage into the dressing room.

"He crawled into this big white tunnel so he didn't have to speak to any of us."

She added: "He was probably the rudest [celebrity] because we all went up to meet him and he wouldn't speak to anyone, not even the crew who were beside him."
