Correct Answer: Michael Jackson and Oprah Winfrey
(Source)As much as we love political drama, royalty wins every time. The King of Pop hadn't given an interview in 14 years, so when Michael Jackson finally sat down with Oprah Winfrey in 1993, 90 million people showed up to watch. Jackson addressed tabloid rumors head-on, revealing he had vitiligo and denying he slept in a hyperbaric chamber or tried to buy the Elephant Man's bones. Even Oprah admitted her knees were literally shaking before the interview, but at least she walked away knowing how to moonwalk.
