New York, he would choose a synagogue
known for its lively singing and dancing.
Jackson, the reclusive pop star best
known for early 1980s hits with elabo-
rately choreographed videos such as
"Billie Jean" and "Beat It," showed up
at Manhattan's Carlebach Shul recent-
ly, accompanied by a few security
guards and Kosher Sex author Rabbi
Shmuley Boteach.
Jackson was not available for com-
ment, but apparently told Boteach the
service at the Orthodox shul was one of
the most spiritual experiences of his life.
"He loved it, he was clapping his
hands with the music," said Boteach,
adding that Jackson particularly enjoyed
a Shabbat hymn by King David about
"the mountains and valleys and all of
God's creations singing together about
the peace of the Sabbath."
Jackson is not planning to convert
to Judaism but was interested in
attending a Jewish service, explained
Boteach, who met Jackson through
mutual friend Uri Geller. Geller, an
Israeli psychic famous for his ability to
bend spoons, also attended the ser-
vices.
Jackson "was swaying right along as
if he were a Chasid," said the shul's
rabbi, Samuel Intrator.
Intrator said that while dancing
through the men's section during
"L'cha Dodi," the traditional song wel-
coming the Sabbath bride, he briefly
held the star's hand. Intrator did not
recall whether Jackson was wearing his
trademark glove.
When I was teaching Torah later,
he was again swaying along and listen-
ing," Intrator said. "He seemed to get
into it. He seemed very spiritual from
what I saw."
Longtime congregant Barbara
Meyer said Jackson created less of a
stir than one might expect.
"What I found very interesting was
it didn't seem to have any effect on the
concentration of the congregants,"
said Meyer, noting that the rabbi
acknowledged Jackson's presence, but
"didn't do anything to draw that much
attention to him."
Intrator noted that services Friday
were crowded — with "hundreds" of
people — not because of Jackson but
because of the holiday Shemini
Atzeret.
This was not Jackson's first brush
with Judaism. In January, he attended
a bar mitzvah in Johannesburg, South
Africa, where he reportedly danced the
Nora, the train and other traditional
dances.
Since befriending the star several
months ago, Boteach has given him a
