After being urged to continue by Walters, the 13 Grammy Award-winning singer continued: “I have to stand in front of him and dance.”

The star caught himself laughing at the anecdote, before continuing: “Yes, he stops crying and his tears turn to laughter.

“He starts to be happy and smile, I do all sorts of moves… and he stops crying.”

On whether he does it often, Jackson responded: “I do a lot of dancing [at home] yeah.”
