Michael Jackson's defence team has called on Macaulay Culkin to take to the stand and rubbish a former Neverland ranch maid's claim she saw the "Thriller" singer kissing and fondling the actor.

Housekeeper Adrian Mary McManus told jurors at the Santa Maria, California, court that between 1991 and 1993, Culkin shared Jackson's bed, left his underwear in the singer's Jacuzzi and allowed the troubled star to kiss his cheek, reports Internet Media Database.

"I was cleaning up and I saw Jackson and Macaulay in the library and Jackson was kissing him on the cheek and he had his hand by his leg at the rear," she said.

However, the "Home Alone" actor has always denied he was abused by the 46-year-old.

Now Jackson's team has persuaded Culkin to testify at the pop star's child molestation trial where he has pleaded not guilty to 10 felony charges of child molestation and conspiracy involving allegations of child abduction, false imprisonment and extortion.
