Melania Trump has taken a shot at Chris Matthews, saying she found it "unbelievable" the MSNBC host panted over her on live television.

But the glamorous model-wife of Donald Trump dismisses the wolfish behavior as something men do.

In a candid interview with DeJour magazine, Melania says she was taken aback when Matthews giddily talked about her appearance as she and Trump toured Indiana, gushing "Did you see her walk? Runway walk. My God, is that good. I could watch that runway show."

"Unbelievable. That's what I'm saying!" Melania said of Matthews' school-boyish ogling. "I'm not only a beauty, I'm smart. I have brains. I'm intelligent. I would just say, men will be men.''

Matthews' gushing came as he co-hosted MSNBC's coverage of the Indiana primary earlier this month. It was condemned by Fox News as "lewd," and by New York Magazine as "gross."

In the DeJour interview, Melania also describes how pop star Michael Jackson once suggested she begin making out with him to play a trick on Trump.

"It was here in New York in the Pierre Hotel. [Jackson] called us, so we went over and we had dinner. Just after dinner, we were chatting on the sofa and my husband went into another room to see some art somebody wanted to show him," she recalls to interviewer Mickey Rapkin.

"And Michael said to me, ‘Hey, when Trump comes back, let's start kissing so he will be jealous!'''

Melania says she dismissed the King of Pop's come-on and both started "laughing so hard.''
