Jackson originally envisioned "Bad" as a duet with Prince, pitting the two superstars against each other in a musical duel. Producer Quincy Jones arranged a meeting, but Prince took issue with the song's opening line, "Your butt is mine." He responded to the King of Pop by saying, "Who's singing that to whom?

They were granted U.S. Patent 5,255,452 for the device.

The Fanilows have been around for quite some time, but really reached a pop culture high when a Will & Grace episode titled "Fanilow" outed Will as a Barry fan.
