Michael Jackson says he's "having a wonderful time, just relaxing" as he celebrates his 50th birthday Friday.

"I feel very wise and sage, but at the same time very young," he said in a phone interview with ABC's Good Morning America Friday.

How will the King of Pop spend his birthday?

"Just have a little cake with my children and we'll probably watch some cartoons," he revealed.

The singer -- who has three children, Paris Katherine, Prince Michael I and Prince Michael II -- told GMA that he would like to release another album soon.

"I am writing all the time," he said. "I love composing and the whole thing. But I am also raising my children and enjoying it and teaching them to ride bicycles and how to read. I love it.

"I get pretty emotional when I see them having a wonderful time," he added. "When they are on a ride and they are screaming and they are happy... It makes me emotional, 'cause I see they are having a real good time."

Jackson, born in Gary, Indiana, found fame in the late '60s with his brothers as part of the Jackson 5 pop group and later as a solo artist in the '70s, '80s and '90s. His 1980 album Thriller is the best-selling LP in history and he's won 13 Grammy Awards.

Jackson said he can still do his famous dance moves -- and "more" -- and singled out Chris Brown for following in his footsteps.

He also said he hasn't received his AARP card yet -- "Not that I know of!" he joked. "You never know. They can find you wherever you are."

I am so glad that all these people who truly know Michael Jackson is telling us what kind of person he is. Can I ask a question how much time have they spent with him? You can't look at someone and tell what kind of person they are. Alot of so call normal looking people have turn out to be some of the most horrible human beings. It is the same way when people say things like oh I know he's a child molester. If that is true, then why didn't that D.A. Tom Sneddon call them as witnesses? Since they know beyond a shadow of doubt. Michael maybe different, but that doesn' make him a terrible person.I wish MJ and his kids much happiness.

If I am not interested in any actor ar singer I will not waste my time reading about them or making hateful comments about them. But people can't help themselves when it comes to Michael Jackson. For all those who kick him down, I'm going to lift him up.Michael Jackson is one of the greatest entertainer ever. I hope he can fine some true happiness in his life. Fame isn't everything. I don't think it is over for him, if the Rolling Stones can still be creeping cross the stage, why not MJ. James Brown was 72 years old and still performing before he died. So someone with the talent of MJ, it ain't over. No way!!! It all depends on him. I hear he is working on a new album, I'm waiting. I've heard the new song he and Akon did and it sounds good. I'm not expecting another THRILLER that is a once in a life time thing. Just some good music from a great artist. GREAT ARTIST!!!

MJ = the best prefomer ever. We all know MJ is a great person. God is on his side. Happy b-day man. Cant wait for the new album.

Those who know the REAL Michael Jackson
and not the wacko created by the Craploid mags. Love him FAR beyond
his amazing talents. They know him to be one of the kindest loving
most generous MEN in the entertainement industry. His fine character
thougout his life and his humanatarian effort are also legendary _
Michael is no wacko but a very gifted unique Human being that uses
his God given gifts to help make the world a better place.

Please take some time to learn the FACTS and you too will love this
MAN for all he has done and for his great great talent to take us away
to a beautiful place and teach us to love one another- Michael's message
has Always been love - and of coures HATERS can not stand that so they
will attack - but please weight the words of the attackers and you will
see they come from a very DARK hateful place - I prefer MJ and his
message any day - plus he knocks me off of my feet now Baby hooooooooo :)

We LOVE You MORE !!!! Michael
Hurry back and Thrill us some more :)

Michael is the picture of mental illness. Sad, and tragic as it is, he was able to entertain so many. The truly sad part is that he has three children's lives to screw up.
