It might seem like the plot of a bizarre SNL skit, but this is real life folks. A former personal assistant to the King of Pop revealed in a recent Vanity Fair interview, that the day the Twin Towers fell was the day an epic road trip with the three of the most unlikely passengers began.

On the morning of September 11th, 2001, a Hollywood trio feared for their lives as the Twin Towers fell. Michael Jackson, Marlon Brando and Elizabeth Taylor reportedly fled New York City, fearing for their own lives as potential terrorist targets.

Hopping into a modest rental vehicle (would anyone else like to take a moment to picture the Thrifty clerk's face as Wacko-Jacko, One-Shot Liz and Bud approached their desk?), the boys split the driving responsibilities on their fantastic journey to an undisclosed location in Ohio, while Liz obviously spent her time looking fabulous, dahling.

Brando's obsession with KFC and junk food stops was nothing short of annoying for Fab Liz and The Gloved One, but what we really want to know is what soundtrack did the trio choose for their epic 500-mile road trip?
