Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Book To Be Released Sept 13*

Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

I feel shell shocked .... when will this pain ever ever end ??? :(

Reading Jermaine's interview just brings back all the pain.

I actually hope this book helps ... just sorry about the Bahrain inclusion which will be twisted again .... but maybe when one reads it in context it may make more sense.

Just a pity the media is running with it which is no surprise at all.

I look forward to his interview with Piers Morgen on CNN because that I will see here in South Africa.

Hope he clears things up there.

I do not drink alcohol ... but a scotch right abouts now feels necessary ... :(

Notice the reporter called Michael the "J" word. It is telling that the first time he saw the extent of this vitiligo was in 2005--another clue that Jermaine did not stay close to Michael in later years. Michael skin condition began in the 80's and till 2000 you saw the extent of it? Do you guys believe the story about the wheel chair? Do you think this was a scam by Michael. I cannot see Michael using this when so many people a restricted to the wheelchair. Also, what is weird in seeing a hand dryer in a bathroom?
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

^^^Same here even if it wasn't his intention to stir some shit but I SERIOUSLY HOPE & PRAY that he doesn't mention this "escape plan" at all in his upcoming media (TV/radio) appearances such as "The View", The Joy Behar Show", "Dr. Drew", and "GMA" and just defend the hell outta his brother!
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

Cassie, thanks for the summaries and article. Now is a good time to tweet Jermaine on being cautious when talking about the escape plan from now on. However, if the TV interviews are already taped, the cat is already out of the bag. The article makes Jermaine sound like the "keeper and savior" of Michael Jackson. Then, you did not know a good job Jermaine, because where is Michael now?

I don't think that the wheelchair was a scam. The bodyguards who were there says that it was necessary. We know that Michael had back pain, walking for distances may have been painful at time.

You're welcome. I agree about tweeting Jermaine about this but I think these "interviewers" will ask him about it anyway but if they do Jermaine should defend his brother about those allegations like he did in that TIMES interview.

The BG said the wheelchair wasn't a disguise

Because Jerm wasn't in contact much with him then he sounds like he's interjecting his own theory there.

I think a lot of the crappy interviewers will ask him about this relentlessly now and try to make it a bigger scandalous story. Jermaine is aware about what people like Dr Drew and Joy Behr have said because fans have tweeted him, so my hope is he fact checks some of their BS.
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

Oh and I forgot to mention his words about Murray. He's creating a nice reasonable doubt for the jury right there. Just like his sister.
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

^^He also needs to make a correction on TV that he was told by Michael's bodyguards that Michael really needed the wheelchair, because he had a painful back at the time. He cannot go around showing his brother as a selffish attention getter while at the same time trying to debunk the allegation theory and show his brother in a better light.

He also needs to ask these people to define weird. He should ask them to tell him what they mean by "weird, " and when they answer, he should ask them "what is weird about what you just said." Then he needs to show other behaviors that are weird and no one labels the person for it. It is time for them to put these people on the spot, especially on live interviews. Maybe someone could tweet these suggestions to him.

Also, tweet that since the trial is right here he should give less emphasis on the conspiracy theory. Since he is not campaigning during the trial, he can simply say that he feels that, since the trial is on, he will not comment on that issue at the moment.
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

Please please ...don't buy Jermaine's book. Don't reward him for making up stories to sell his stupid book.

We can all pitch in & have one person order an electronic copy.

Or maybe Ivy could be our dear guinea pig again. Or we could take turn....because there are a lot more books to come.

If you and everyone else wants I'll buy kindle version and read it and summarize it

Jermaine's twisted plan to get a career boost. Well Jermaine Jackson, your 15 mins of fame book tour is on the the clock.
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

He called Jermaine "erm"? The hospital story I can see being true. Michael was strong but he had to have had days where he felt like he couldn't take it anymore. It must have been so frustrating. The media was beyond awful to Michael. It was like a witch hunt and he was treated guilty before the trial even started. I hate the media for what they did to him.

I am glad he described the vitiligo because people need to understand and if he is going to be on Dr. Drew especially that guy needs to be educated. As a doctor I guess he doesn't understand that is was in the autopsy that Michael had vitiligo. Maybe he didn't see the extent because Michael didn't want to show many people.

As for the escape plan, I am not going to worry about it. Michael didn't know about it and if people want to twist it well there is nothing to do about it. I think people have said the most horrible things you can say about Michael. People can look at it as a brother worried about his brother and just frustrated about the situation. People might not believe Jermaine anyways as the family isn't very credible.

Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

and this is just making up stories now. so there was an escape plan that Michael didn't know and Jermaine who doesn't know what Michael would or would not do, is writing his fantasy as what would have happened? It's fiction.

and honestly even if true, how is this helping Michael or changing public opinion about him. Jermaine just portrayed Michael as a rich celebrity that would not respect the law and defy a court order just because he can and he feels like it. How is that helping Michael?

It isn't, helping Michael. The instant I read that in this thread, I was concerned about this tainting the jury pool!
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

Well Michael's kids might not have a mother Germaine but they had a father, not just someone who conceived andabandoned them, only spending time with them once a fortnight, they had a true, real father, a father that was so great that he was their father and mother at the same time. Unlike you Michael never pushed his children onto other people be it their mothers or his own mother (like you do) to take care of them. Another thing, I don't think having children from 3/4 different women is something to gloat about, considering one of their mothers is woman both you and your own brother went to bed with

But Jermaine STRONGLY defended Michael against the allegations. I think he should have just kept that escape plan bit to himself.

From LSA:
Yeah, AP picked that up so their story is reposting everywhere. I just scanned most of these and to me the story does not look bad. Every outlet emphasizes that Michael didn't know about the plan. And reminds people that Michael was found innocent of all charges. I think it leads people who might be on the fence into sympathetically nodding their head at the part where Jermaine says:

So what? that does not make the situation over all in and general ok to capitalize off your brother. I did not hear Jermaine vocalize his opinion when the 93 allegations hit, what makes 2005 different? where was the major support back then? they are very selective and passive about certain aspects. And jermaine wants to make himself look like superman on saving michael's life( more than once) and being the front foreman through all of his downfalls when it is plain that it was not the case. Jermaine is trying to sell his book so for any gullible fan or not that will buy into his accounts, he would be satisfied. He should be part of the blame for mike's downfalls also.

I don't hate Jermaine nor any of the family members, I'm just very disappointed in their actions and choice of words for their own gain/benefit, it is convenient for them to say now that michael is gone that they were all there to help him when that is total B.s., if that was the case, why did mike feel so alone?

Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

I do not think anyone hates Jermaine. This word "hate" seems to be all over the forum. What I see is people find him comical and make fun at his various projects that tend to mimic Michael or take advantage of Michael's connection. No one thinks he is a dangerous person. Everyone knows he was not part of the addict story. Everyone knows he tried to stick up for Michael on occasions. That said, Jermaine has got Michael into financial problems. Word to the Badd, was more than just sibling pettiness. This was a public degradation of a brother, and I was around to witness it. It no doubt hurt Michael's and Jermain's feelings. You are right it is in the past, but nevertheless, it is not mere pettiness in a lot of people's eyes.

As long as Jermaine continues tries to become a current star by using the materials and connections of his dead famous brother, he will continue to be seen as comical by many people, including myself. When he does something using his own work and talent, then I will say, Jermaine I am proud of you and I will support him.

Additionally, some will like his book and buy it. There is nothing wrong with that.


And that is what he should focus on, his own career and talent. There is nothing wrong with standing up for your sibling, but I cannot help but get the slightest feeling that it is all for attention and money, I understand he means well in that notation, but stop using the spotlight to gain the attention from michael.
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

Jermaine have kids that are sibling/cousins and others that have different mothers! Why is he acting as if that's the way to do it? Cause I'm more then sure his ways are seen as also unconventional to the so called society he so tries to impress with that B.S talk in the article!

MJ kids were loved and they had a Parent, who raised them well! That's what is important! That's has to count for something too, "erms!"

Ok anything else you wanna add? I'm sure someone had to bring that portion up for him to bring it into his conclusion. I'm talking about the vocal support! get it? they are doing all of these interviews now to talk about what they done in the year of 03/05 because of the attention it(the trial) has gotten. I'm not saying that they or a few doubted his innocence but what I am saying is why did they not try to shut down the reporters then who made mike's life a living hell from that point on like they are doing now?
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

I agree! How come he wasn't calling DD out back then, like he plans to do in his book....YRS LATER! By the way BE.86 where is that footage of MJ from on ur siggy? It's sooo cute!

Exactly, I don't understand him talking down of MJ for his kids not having a mother. Like Jermaine's kids have a father?

Anyway, as someone who lost her mother at a young age...I survived and I am not half as dysfunctional as the Jacksons.

So out of 460 pages, he chose the most salacious story to drag his dead brother's name in mud. I hope the bodyguards will fact check Jermaine.
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

Now we see that these books were rushed to get out as close to the trial as possible, so that when people's minds are on Michael, they will be more curious about a book about him. No consideration was made to keep certain silly theories to oneself until after the trial. Now all Jacksons, except Tito and Jackie are pushing a conspiracy theory to boost their AEG case. They expect to share big time if AEG seeks to get rid of them by offering a settlement. However, there are in for a rude awakening, because I doubt AEG will even consider such a thing.

Let's see what he says to Drew because he should have known by now what Drew said to the bodyguard about Michael.
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

The fact that Jermaine was shocked by how the Vitiligo looked on MJ's body is telling! When all he had to do was look up how Vitiligo progresses! No wonder he wrote "Word to the Badd!" Almost sound like that moment in the hospital was the first time ever Jermaine realized MJ truly did have it! smh

I feel there was such a vast difference between Michael and his family (financially, spiritually, creatively, etc) that in many ways they would have felt alienated, ignorant of what was really going on with him. They would not have been able to grasp it. I do not mean that in a derogatory way.

When you look at how Mrs Jackson spoke about Michael's surgery and the same Vitiligo and Jermaine's response as well, it points to their ignorance. Perhaps deep inside they did not think that such a thing had really happened to Michael.
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

^^You know I sometimes wonder that too Chosen, that if some of them, were doubtful that he was afflicted with it. Even Katherine mentioned that once she saw him with his shirt off and noticed he was spotted. Because they did not interact with him unless they wanted something, they knew little about his affairs, and is a reason why they often took the media stories or ideas about their brother as truth. My thing is it took Jermaine too long to realize his brother had it, so if Michael never took off his shirt in the hospital for him to see the patches, he would never believe that he had a serious condition?
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

^^^ And perhaps that is why they could never really come out and defend him.
 
Re: Jermaine Writing Book On Life With MJ *Update Post 253, Book To Be Released In Sept*

^^^ And perhaps that is why they could never really come out and defend him.

Right. Maybe so. Except, there are pix of Michael in the early eighties where his stage makeup is running (he was sweating), and the patches on his neck are totally obvious. I just can't imagine that his family wouldn't notice something like that? Also, on that Oprah interview at N/L, he said it "ran in his family." Vitiligo can be genetic, and the family would have been very aware of this in their background, and what it looks like. So it's just not understandable, why this would somehow be new news to Jermaine? (Or maybe he's just trying to cover Word to the Baaad somehow, that he didn't GET IT back then when he wrote that awful song? And, he says the song was "leaked?" Not very likely, at all.)

Actually, Jermaine was one of the few in the family who defended AEG. He thanked them for helping with Michael's memorial and TII. He never said a bad words against them and said that the only reason why his father was attacking them was because he was angry and frustrated. Not true, of course, by he pretty much saying that AEG did nothing wrong and thanked for supporting Michael. He is also one of the few in the family who supports the estate and never called the will right.

Also, the AEG lawsuit goes against everything Jermaine had said over the pass two years since it paint Michael as weak, under control, scared, and heavily medicated.
