Exclusive: La Toya Jackson Opens Up on Family's Grief, Future

If Toy didn't care about Michael and only was in it for the money she could be making a lot more by making 'sensational revelations' about MJ's private life. It wouldn't matter if they were true or not - the media doesn't care. The public would eat it up and she'd be payed loads of money. A lot more than any tabloid would be willing to pay her for telling them that MJ was 'god-like.' The public at large isn't interested in that, they want dirt.

If she was that bad the family wouldn't have welcomed her back with open arms after 1993. LaToya isn't the black sheep of the family. She's the black sheep of that part of MJ's fanbase who think that every good story needs a villain, and she's an easy target.
 
ugh. didn't like a handful of questions Barbara asked.

all i wanna say is, i'm with La Toya on the fact that Michael was murdered/assassinated. She doesn't know exactly who did it, because it was a group of people, not just one. He's said before that "They are going to kill me". He spoke out a little about the conspiracy and always stopped to say i can't say too much. He was scared.

OK. . . LaToya said that she did not take Michael's hard drives of unreleased music. Dileo thinks that LaToya took it because she and Janet were at the house the night Michael died gathering his things and the children's things.

LaToysa said that when she got to the house, it looked 'ransacked' and money and jewelry were missing.

My questions is. . . Where are Michael's hard drives of unreleased music?!?! LaToya says she doesn't know who has them and Dileo thinks she has them. :(

A classic example of MJ's entourage saying one thing and the family saying another! If those songs get on a CD I guess we will know then who has them the estate?

I saw nothing wrong with her interview...pointless, yeah maybe. The thing that REALLY stood out to me was when she was talking about Diana Ross, the kids don't even know her!?!?!

Yeah. So if Katherine had died he was willing to leave his kids with someone they don't know. Why not pick someone they are familiar with? Like Rebbie.

I don't see what the big deal is over the interview. I expected it to be much worse. She did nothing to fuel the fire and her answers were appropriate in regards to the burial, kids, and the case.

Alot of fans forget MJ loved attention, and I am sure he is smiling in heaven that the world stopped for him 2 months ago.

On another matter, as much as I love MJ, his lack of credibility on some subject matters have opened his life up to scrutiny. For example, the plastic surgery denials and the paternity of his kids even though it is really anyways business. I think Tom Messearu in court slipped during the trial, according to RF, and stated that MJ was not the father of Prince and Paris.However, like latoya said, it does not matter regardless especially legally.

Phew! It was quite a read, this thread, but I finally arrived, lol
Just to straighten this out ^ ^
Tom Mesereau has never said any such thing, I've read the entire transcript of the court proceedings and nothing of the sort wa said by ANYONE.

I loved the Janet interview. LaToya runs at the mouth a bit too much for my liking. But let's not hate on her.
I really don't care for her much, but she's Mike's sister, and she's been through some crap in the past... Eh?

Yes, lets just blame Jack Gordan....because he's dead and he can't defend himself. I've always felt her whole "I was abused" story was completely saturated and a desperate plea for attention and sympathy from the public. And by the way, she didn't let the condo "go" she owes owes $745,670.27 before the auction which is on Sept. 30th. "Letting it go" = I can't pay for it. A short sale is the same as a foreclosure on a credit report. It will eff up her credit score even more.

She was the first at MJ's house once the news announced his death and she took the hard drives with his unreleased songs among other possessions ...

Shady!

I am older & have always watched alot of TV. Probably way too much. I am sure I missed some of LaToya's appearances but she was on alot of different TV shows with her husband & it was truly awful. He would prod her to say stuff. She was on Geraldo alot - he used to have Hollywood gossip shows like once a week or every two weeks - people like Cyndi Adams & Mike Walker would appear too. She was so different before Gordon & so very different now compared to when she was with Gordon. She was truly abused, maybe drugged too. I bet she wanted to leave earlier but Gordon may have been telling her that her family would not want her back. I am sure Gordon tried to blackmail the Jacksons. Jack Gordon was a terrible business manager or perhaps he just embezzled everything LaToya made - as it was reported in 93 I think that MJ had to pay the IRS approx $475000 for her. All there is now is the one clip that gets played over & over but there was so much more that we do not see anymore. Cyndi Adams said some things on Geraldo that gave me the impression she knew alot behind the scenes & may have helped Latoya, I don't know. The media I think knew something was wrong with the relationship but liked to exploit LaToya for ratings. I believe Oxman handled her divorce.

Here is a link that gives info on Jack Gordon. It seems pretty accurate & gives a good timeline that reminds me of events prior & after 93 accusation. He is linked to organised crime.

^^:yes:
Obviously I don't know anything first hand, but clearly something went wrong after she hooked up with Jack Gordon. Before that she was sweet and never said a bad word against any of her family, she was always full of praise for Michael, so to me that indicates something.
Who knows what 'the whole truth' behind all this is, but to me it DOES seem like Jack Gordon had a very negative influence on LaToya.
Honestly speaking, I don't think she's entirely over it yet, sometimes I get the feeling she's very fragile emotionally.
Like I said before, I don't care for her much, and I do think some of the things she says are highly inappropriate, but I also do believe we need to cut her some slack.
 
Well after last night I wish to apologize for any negative thoughts I had about Latoya. The abuse she took, the beating, the death threats. Awful stuff. I totally believe her now. Just before the show I watched "The US versus John Lennon" and the whole time I was like "This is exactly like Michael". Lennon was the big "Powers that be" threat of the sixties. MJ was the new Lennon and they dealt with him like MANY others anti-war activists and peace messengers.

Now, I'm even more mad at those MJ specials that show Latoya's rambling about Michael's guilt but they conveniently forget to say that Latoya was forced into it for fear of her life. I truly despise ALL controlling media.

BTW, those who wonder who the "Powers that be" , the Puppet Masters, the Money Changers, the war Profiters are you can search the net for;

The 13 families of the Illuminati
The Money Changers
The War Profiters
The 911 Mysteries
Manchurian Candidate
No end in sight
Escape to Canada
The US versus John Lennon
etc. etc.

some ppl pick the strangest things to be upset with the family about. smh..

her apt going into foreclosure has nothing to do with MJ's death, 20/20 saying the kids ages wrong has nothing to do with MJ's death..Now Prince being called upstairs that is something we shld be tripping about... MJ dying period and Murray being the cause of it is what we should be harping on...BW was dead wrong for taking that camera into the public service and filming those kids.. shameless...

I suppose some of you could possibly find fault with all the Jacksons even the mother.. but must I remind you that Jackie has yet to say a damn thing.

Once again some of you wld give a crackhead more credit than you give some of the ppl that were really close to MJ... family, ex-wives, 2nd cousin twice removed.

*sidenote* I am so glad she found the right color foundation, I cldn't take much more of the powder white she use to wear

man, if mike's ass was laughin at this man being gone and that b rougth him happiness for the day, what does that tell u?

again, i loved her nails and the carpet in the room? wow:doh:
 
This was a very Important Interview for more reasons than one! For those of you squabbling and attacking eachother or latoya, I sure wish you would get off that soap box and finger pointing and really look at what she is doing with this interview:

* bY repeatedly telling the world, her brother Michael Jackson was Murdered puts that needed pressure on the Investigation to follow her lead(s). Trust me, not only did the shady crooks and murderers watched but I can guess some law officials wacthed the interview as well.
* Latoya Jackson' is MJs sister, she signed the death certificate, she had LEGAL GUARDIANSHIP over his body, she chose Forrest Lawn. The D.E.A. and Atty General office must take her claimes seriously. This interview was done to let them know, Latoya and possibly other family members know there were OTHERS INVOLVED. She wants them to do their job thoroughly and bring them all down, NOT JUST MURRAY.

* By publically admitting this was about Money. She wants the public and law enforcement to know 2 important things
1) This was a planned HIT on her brother
2) This was about the Sony Atv/Catalogue and Michael's Estate

They will now have to start( if they hadn't already) looking at who has benefited financially from Michael's death.

If you saw the INTERVIEW LASTNIGHT and walked away NOT considering this but instead chose to attack her, then you have COMPLETELY MISSED the point of what MJ's sister was doing for him.

Latoya Jackson is trying to help bring the MURDERERS to Justice, let her and stop attacking.

PLEASE.

La Toya Still Thinks Michael Was Murdered

Posted Sep 12th 2009 10:50AM by TMZ Staff
The coroner says the death of Michael Jackson was a homicide, but La Toya Jackson is still calling it murder.



La Toya was on "20/20" last night with Barbara Walters, where she once again asserted that Michael was murdered by people who would benefit financially from his death, but she doesn't know exactly who.

Dr. Conrad Murray, who administered the drug that resulted in Jackson's death, is the only person the LAPD is focusing on in their investigation.

So we should fully blame Jack Gordon for her antics?:lol:

I'm sorry but I know a phoney MF when I see one and Latoya is just that! She went on national TV and announced to the world that her brother is a pedophile! Before you say well Jack Gordon....She could've said something totally different and dealt with the consequences later on. At least I know I would. Rather then doing something that would hunt MJ till his death. And her whole claim about MJ being murdered is just another trick in her bag of relevancy. She's not helping one bit! and btw- Michael was Dr. Murry's meal ticket, he didn't want him to die! She just looks like a fool doing these interviews. Just let the investigators do their job.

IA. La Toya made a good point of saying how Jack Gordon hired people to control her, and that the same thing could've happened to MJ. She also made a good point in saying that MJ didn't have to directly hire Dr. Murray, because one of MJ's staff could've done it. I think we all find it strange that MJ hired a cardiologist for his problem with insomnia. There are lot of things surrounding MJ's passing that we don't know.

No, you like to THINK that you would have reacted differently. Everyone likes to think that they would have reacted differently. Every person comes up when talking about an abused woman with the "if it had been me" argument. But until you've been in that situation yourself you don't know what you would do. In fact, if every abused woman would have reacted in the manner they think they would before it actually happened to them there would be no abused women at all.

As for your argument that MJ's death was the result from a homicide rather than a complicated conspiracy that resulted in his murder - you may very well be right about that. It sounds more logical to me too. But that doesn't take away from the fact that LaToya honestly believes that her brother was murdered. And who knows? Maybe she is right.

Hmmm...I think the facts will show that MJ hired Murray because he knew he was desperate for cash. Murray was in a lot of debt, and what better way to rid it by traveling with the King of Pop and doing what he wanted. I forgot who it was, but someone from AEG said Michael insisted that they put Murray on the payroll so he could live with him to keep the engine running and they went with it,foolishly.

Mind you-MJ was doctor shopping for medications, and Cheryl Lee said MJ asked for propofol and insisted he was going to be monitored.

There isn't any evidence that people in MJ circle were trying to control him. They did things to keep their job but not to control him.

Lisa Marie and even Branca and others said that MJ always found a way to surround himself by people who would say yes. The people who didn't care to be involved in the drama stepped away or he pushed them away.

And how do you know If I wasn't in a situation like that? Also you can't make me believe that Latoya as you presume- "innocent". I honestly believe she just wants attention. I don't see any other reason why she arranged this interview (approx. a week after MJ passed) 1) Nothing we don't already know was talked about 2) Latoya has no knowledge of what happened. She's just going off assumptions and assumptions are the mother of all f--k ups!

I know that only too well. :lol: But I don't really have the ambition of changing your or anyone else's mind to begin with. That sort of thing happens very rarely (if ever) on an internet forum. An exchange of opinions and ideas is usually the best one can hope for. ;)
 
I thought the interview was insightful in some way... we got to learn about how the children are doing and possibly the origin of Blanket's mother. I really think we should thank LaToya in some way, even though she said some things which weren't entirely true... but the fact of the matter is, she lost her brother, and apart from all the stuff she said about him in the past, I think we should at least have some respect for her in this difficult time. I mean if Michael forgave her then why can't we?

I really hope Janet does an interview like this cause I would love to hear what she has to say, especially because I think she was the closest sibling to Michael.
 
i find it incredulous that fans cannot forgive someone butmike can...and in reality, she did nothing to u. so how can u be upset for it? lol honestly? is it ur place?

let's complain about who's saying it not what was said?

and um...isn't tmz sipping the kewl aid now? cuz homicide is murder.

That's what I thought when I read it. I was like huh? Its a weird article title: Latoya still thinks...I think they are trying to make it seem like her claim is nuts. More of the blame MJ game...
 
man lemme say this and then leave cuz myhead hurt...damn

if u meet toy, she'll remind u of mj. im sure that's y babs was teary. her aura, her spirit, so clueless and sweet at the same time. so nice and childlike....she's not a threat. she's speakingwhat she thinks....
 
I thought the interview was insightful and not attention seeking like some ppl on this thread are trying to make out. Some ppl just want to hate her and will twist everything she does to make it look negative. I think its sad really. Why put so much effort into going into every La Toya related thread just to bash everything she does? lol

La Toya made me cry at the end :( I'm glad she is fighting for her brother, Michael was not meant to die...something shady was going on.
No matter how much pain we're going through, imagine the Jackson familys pain, my heart goes out to them.

Homicide doesn't mean that someone was murdered, it means that the death of a person was caused by someone else. Let's say if someone by accident hit a person in the head with a hard object by mistake that would be a homicide. The police comes and finds the person dead and the oject that hit the person found on the floor, the police will say that the death is a homicide and probably a murder. If someone admitted that they were the one that hit the person in the head but they panicked and ran away, the police will say that it was homicide but it was manslaughter if it is proven that that is what took place. If the police sees the object in the dead persons hands, then they my conclude that it was a suicide, but again they would have to look at the florensic evidence to determine if that is the case. When it comes to the investigation of Michael's death, the police will have to prove if Dr. Murray intentionally killed Michael. Dr. Murray may be accused of being negligent for causing the death of Michael, but that doesn't mean that he murdered him.
