It is indeed absurd.. I think that poster is cluess as to how long Karen has been working for Michael.
This is what bothers me about Jermain he doesn't answer any question really.....he says I dont know.....I think he knows..... He lies about everything....he says I dont know about the family autopsy report.
I honestly think this tells me more about Liz than anything else.. I almost feel like those who were closest to MJ are the ones we AREN'T hearing from if that makes any sense...
If nobody from the family spoke fans wouldn't like that either and they would complain about the deafening silence. It's a case of damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Great minds think alike.That what I was trying to say
so b/c i work for someone for a long time must mean im a good person?It is indeed absurd.. I think that poster is cluess as to how long Karen has been working for Michael.
I'm glad Jermaine is speaking, it's nice to hear someone from the family speak up or even a close friend. I love that the proceeds are going to charity whether they are MJs charity or not. I think I heard that they will show the tribute on CNN.
ETA: JERMAINE HAS CHOSEN CNN to present The Tribute to a global audience.
That was on the website, I can't wait to see it.

I don't blame Jermaine for not saying to much, bcuz he never knows when the lawyers may use what he says against his mom in court. They have yet to get everything settled and I assume once they do and the situation with the LAPD/DA possibly filing a case against the doctor(s), I think then the family will say more and really get some stuff off of their chests.
People are so harsh on Jermaine! Er, why? Did I miss something? From reading this thread I thought it was gonna be an awful awful interview. I just watched it and I didn't see that. People need to chill the fuck out. This is Michael's brother FFS. I think we're getting way ahead of ourselves.
I'm gonna reserve judgement on the whole tribute2009 thing until more info comes about. I didn't really like that Shawn though. It does seem a little bit fishy in that regard.
that being said, i don't think an hr long interview shouldbe done by someone who has restrictions on what they can say. if he literally doesn't know OR he's being told not to say, then what's the point of an interview?
just a question...
its ok for JRT, Halprin, Larry King's wife, Diana Dimond, Bashir, the entire media, the Chopra's to make money off Mike..
but when it comes to his family..............everyone is up in arms that they are earning $$$ with anything to do with Michael..
well, I have my opinions of some family members BUT they are Michael's foundation...
they are his blood.....and in their own way ... they loved Michael.......and all of them know him better than any of those other idiots on tv or book writer...
Michael was and is HUGE.... someone is going to make money...............regardless...so why not his family.............hell Michael is why they were rich in the 1st place....
I don't see any of his family members being a Judas to him...........they all are showing their concerns in their own way... even Joe...
lastly, I liked what Jermaine said about the executors... he said they are people they have know for many many years and they are doing an excellent job... and have already raised $100mil for the estate...
I can bet Michael glitter glove... that Michael was extremely clear headed when he did that will...............he know what he was doing.... and Jermaine says it... that those executors are following Michaels wishes...
to me Michael wanted his estate to be one of the biggest celeb/corporations in America...and worldwide.........it was not just about sentiments..... if it was just about sentiments...a family member would be in charge...
his mother and kids will not have to work a day for the rest of their lives..............
Michael worked hard in life to take care of his family and for death he set it up to do the same......
RIP Michael ....you get "nough" respect from me
the Jacksons tv site is to register for events from
sponsored by Jermaine - http://jacksonlive.tv/ Thats
why his pic is there _ it should be there _ It was started by Jermaine
so of course he is Front and center - nothing wrong with it. Its just a
page to register for events broadcast online from the Jacksons
Now Here is the site to honor Michael and further Charity work
in Michaels name _ Someone needs to do it so who better than his brother ..
http://www.tribute2009.com/Hits.asp
THE CONCEPT of The Tribute is that some of the world‘s leading artists will perform Michael Jackson‘s
greatest hits live on stage in an imperial setting, befitting the King of Pop. “I have invited many of the
most fascinating talents of our time”, Jermaine Jackson said, “and most of them have already confirmed
to perform in honor of my beloved brother”.
Presented by his brother Jermaine Jackson, it will pay homage to the exceptional artistry of this unique
genius and be a night to remember for millions of television viewers around the globe.
The TV special will be broadcast live. More than 85,000 people can attend the show and experience
the evening first hand.
The Tribute is conceived to be an annual event in the memory of the world’s leading entertainer
who died much too early.
So much negativity .. where it doesnt belong :angel:
Jermaine can NOT give out info about the autopsy .. it would
harm the investigation _so fans demanding that is unreasonable
and they are acting arrogant about it -
Jermaine is not going to speculate and cause more harm and unfounded
rumors _ he does just like Michael has always done he doesnt attack _plus he
just doesnt know everything going on _ His mother is in charge of all of that
right now and he cant say anything _ he may not know all the deatails as
he seems to be busy with positive work to honor Michael great deeds
What he is doing in this interview is lifting Michael up the sky and beyond _
He is Praising his brother and is not goin to let all the tabloid crap or speculation
get in the way of that - many seem to be ignoring all the positive things he stated
about MJ and still focus on the negative rumors circulation and completly ignoring
Mjs great work and legacy that Jermaine is trying to bring focus on _which was the
MAIN reaon for this interview for some reason many here are ignoring that
and dont care about that _ Its is very telling ..
It doesnt matter what charities_most likely more will be added
They all seem legit and like they are good charities _ Im sure
Michael would stand behind then .. We should'nt Nitpic
This is tribute to Honor Michael is a good thing :wub:
Shawn has Hollywood connections and is great with organizations.
rasta, i totally dig what ur saying.
my point is NO ONE SHOULDBE TALKING. no one is countering his 'friends' when they wanna speak. one word that would've shut up oxman was y didn't u do anything? his mouth is so damn large, surely if the crap he was spewing was true, he would've said or done something.
instead, anyone and everyone who knew mj, for fiveminutes or five yrs, is on tv and no one is telling them to shutup. they can't quench their mj thirst for news and exclusives
if they care, they should all stfu and wait.
michael needs to be front and center, i like jermaine and all but come on, michael at the bottom where i had to scroll to even see him????

damn, lol
i mean, i think everyone should join forces. have one united statement, so to appease fans and media alike and show that they are truly concerned about mike but at the same time want to grieve and want to wait before passing judgement.
cuz all they'rereporting is toya screaming murder, tito saying this, jermaine saying that....just be united and hold ur tongue
That is RUDE.
They are individuals with own feelings..
No one is doing a bit of harm.
Jermaine is nothing but LOVE. :cheeky:
