Lewis Hamilton says he has loads in common with MJ

London, Oct 31(ANI): F1 champ Lewis Hamilton feels that there are lots of similarities between him and the late king of pop Michael Jackson.

"We share some things in common, my dad always pushed me very hard, and his dad pushed him very hard and always wanted the best for him," the Mirror quoted him as saying in an interview on Kiss.

The 24-year-old British driver says he has huge amount of respect for the 'Thriller' hitmaker.

"I still think today and for many many years and decades he will continue to be the greatest of all time, I don't think anyone can match him," he added.

Hamilton also revealed that he had fallen for Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger at first meeting.

"When I first saw them in 2004, I was blown away by the talent and beauty of Nicole Scherzinger. I had a serious crush on her, to say the least," he said. (ANI)
