Miles Teller called out Andy Cohen on Thursday’s Watch What Happens Live after the host seemingly couldn’t resist looking at his crotch while Teller recalled learning Michael Jackson’s legendary dance moves.
During the show, a fan called in to ask about the upcoming Michael biopic, in which Teller portrays entertainment lawyer John Branca. The actor shared his admiration for the late King of Pop, revealing he was a “massive fan” of MJ.
Teller reminisced about learning the moonwalk at the age of 11, noting that he’d even imitate Jackson’s famous crotch grab, which got him into trouble at school. As he mimicked the dance moves from his seat, Teller caught Cohen glancing down.
“I saw you look down there, Andy, you little pervert!” Teller exclaimed, laughing.
Cohen, who wasn’t on camera at the time, sheepishly admitted, “I did.”
Teller’s lighthearted jab was in good fun, as Cohen chuckled in response.
The upcoming Michael biopic, set to hit theaters on Oct. 3, will explore Michael Jackson’s journey from his days in the Jackson 5 to his groundbreaking solo career. The film also showcases the King of Pop’s rise to fame and his untimely passing in 2009.
In the movie, Teller plays Jackson’s entertainment lawyer, John Branca. Jaafar Jackson, Michael’s nephew, will portray the singer, while Colman Domingo and Nia Long take on the roles of Joe and Katherine Jackson, Michael’s parents. A portion of the film was shot at Jackson’s iconic Neverland Ranch in California, where he lived for many years. Teller teased the experience, calling it “wild.”
