La Toya releases new book and single / Summary @ Pg 30 / Pictures @ Pg 33

Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

If she had his notes...they would be on the auction block. Just like the note MJ left about Halloween Special....

Anyone asked her what she did with said "note"?
 
Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

that is my point. We need to wait and see.
How much longer should we wait? Wait another 5 years ? Ten years? 50 years? Don't you realize that there is nothing to wait and see after 2 years?!

Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

I just do not understand La Toya. If Michael left notes for Joe, why Michael did not picked up the phone and call his father? LOL Or Michael did not have the phone number of the father? :doh: Oh La Toya.... :sigh:

Unfortunately Latoya isn't the only one in that so called family who's having a hard time realizing she ain't Michael, some of Jackson's are struggling with the illusion of being 'Michael', or 'as good as Michael ''better than Michael'' for over 30 years.
And personally, I don't think they will ever get that they are NOT Michael, nor equal to him.

There was more about Michael than just walking around in military suits, wearing fedora's, armbands and/or talking in a whispery voice. So much more.

^For a book she says she was "forced" to do, she sure as hell likes to promote it don't she! SMH

If by any chance Toy has those "MJ notes" crying out to poppa Joe
 
Gospel of La Toya &bull; View topic - Starting Over Book - Chapter Titles

How many pages is the book?
350-something if I recall correctly. I got the first two chapters today and I've gotta say... amazing! Chapter one details a Jack Gordon beat-down and is scary to imagine.
The second chapter features an anecdote about a Saudi princess which is very sad.

passage from the book

Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

^Gordon did control her. Haters gonna hate. *roll eyes*
 
Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

I think it`s not hate. The Ex-husband may be were bad but it`s not a good sign that she gives in the prologue all guilt to this dead man. He is dead and he has no chance to speak for him. That`s not right.
 
Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

Nobody's controlling her now. So who's to blame when she paints her brother out to be a big helpless baby crying for daddy? How is that going to help his legacy? How is it going to help put Murray behind bars? And I don't believe her for a minute on Michael wanting Joe and the supposed notes. If Michael wanted something, he usually got it. If he wanted Joe, he would have had him in his life somehow.

I tell ya, if the defense uses Latoya's crap to create doubt in the minds of the jurors about Murray's guilt, I'm gonna be hella pissed.

Yeah, poor man. :( I feel sorry for this woman beater who threatened to kill Michael. I think I'll set up a fan site for him tonight. I'll PM you the link.

I just hope that you or no one in your family ever have to go though an abusive relationship with that attitude....
 
Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

My thing is that since she got away from this man she hasn't said anything bad about Michael that I can remember and she supported him during the trial. I assume Michael forgave her since I saw a picture of him with his kids and Latoya once. I think with anything we should wait and see exactly what she says. Nobody throw anything at me but I would rather hear from Latoya than Janet and Rebbie talking about Michael. She is not as cold. I won't buy the book but I am sure details will come out and I will see then how I feel.

Off topic, twinklee your Michael at 50 vs 25 I love that!
 
Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

And maybe you should drop your attitude as well...I happen to agree with this user..Latoya needs to quit trying to place the blame on everyone else for some of her choices, and take responsibility for the fact that, some of that crap she did herself, because she wanted the fame, so maybe you should check your attitude. This man may have been some of her problem, but he damn sure wasn't holding her mouth with strings or pulling them in the 2,000's... so how dare you!
 
Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

Jack Gordan forced la toya to say things about MJ in the 90's for attention and money some say? But, who is forcing la toya to talk about MJ and also His kids for attention and money now?! Hmmmm lol

Yea Mj forgave la toya for what she did and she was quite about things on MJ cause he was alive but, the minute he dies she runs her mouth all over again about things on her brother while throwing his kids in the mix. Reminding us all about the old toya of the 90's, gee I wonder why? Maybe cause it wasn't all forced and very much la toya wanting too! Just saying!
 
Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

This thread has been cleaned. All of the off topic mentionings of what other Jackson family members did that is not related to this book have been deleted. The members who started the off topic arguing were given their warnings. After 3 warnings the access to this section will be revoked.

Repeatedly ignoring the rules cannot keep happening. This thread is about LaToya's book and single. Please stick to that.

Thank you.

Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

^Please don't ignore the staff's request to get back on topic.

I'm actually looking forward to this book but I'm not too sure on the single.

What attitude?!?? I was just stating my opinion just as you did... n I stand by what I said... N like another poster stated above, she hasn't said anything bad about MJ since then, so I'm inclined to think it had something to do with him. When someone is in an abusive relationship they usually are very sacred of the abuser, trapped and controled by them. There are women who are forced to prostitute, steal, murder, etc.. for their abusive husbands. N for somebody like LaToya who was naive, it was probably very easy for Jack to manipulate her... While I don't blame all on him, 95% goes to him and the other 5% to Toya for not leaving in the beginning before it got too far along..

No offense, but a while back I saw a YouTube clip of LaToya wherein she was making all of those nasty claims and in MY OPINION, she looked like she was enjoying herself and the attention she was able to garner with the lies she was feeding the public. I don't even think homegirl was reading from a "script" during that press conference. I guess Jack Gordon also "forced" her to MEMORIZE the offending "script." LOL!

In my opinion, her book should probably be called "The FANTASIES Of LaToya Jackson," because she is now free to make-up stories that Michael is not here to refute, i.e. "Michael left a note asking for Joe Jackson's help." LOL! As if!

Okay well that's fine.. N I don't think she meant script "literally".... it was usually a room full of people so I don't think she would have paper or cue cards in front of her... N I'm sure that if he threatened her with violence then she did what she was told or else... This was a domestic violence relationship... n usually the abuser has control over the victim... So its not that far fetched when put all biases aside and think about it

Personally, speaking for myself, just my opinion, I NEVER believed that Jack Gordon forced LaToya to do anything she didn't want to do and for all we know that entire episode was HER idea. As I said previously, I believe she was enjoying the limelight those awful stories brought her way. I truly belive that, always have, always will. But as I said, its just my opinion.

I don't know how to explain it, other then to say: Folks do some STRANGE things in their quest for the spotlight! In my opinion, LaToya wouldn't have been the first and she certainly won't be the last person on earth to do something so outrageous in order to get some shine.

I noticed that someone posted LaToya has released TEN albums to date. I had no idea! It "probably" CRUSHED her to know everybody in the family was able to attain some type of fame, EXCEPT for her. TEN albums, ten TOTALLY unnoticed albums. OUCH!

I understand how you felt, I could tell when I read your first post. I was just stating that for an abusive victim her actions wouldn't be far off
 
Re: La Toya to release new book and single on the same day

One more thing, it appears that LaToya and Jermaine will be going for different theories in their respective books.

I saw a tweet from Jermaine on another MJ board and Jermaine says that:

"Michael WAS fit & healthy & ready to rock the world when we last saw him in may."

I'm guessing that when the family saw Michael in May, he wasn't worried about Joe Jackson removing the offending OTHERS from his life, as per LaToya's "note."

Two books, two different stories. Coming from TWO members of the same family. Just how embarrassing is the whole thing going to get?

Gotta co sign this, I for one was just as 'clueless' as u were regarding Latoya's long list of released album. You'd think releasing THAT MANY albums, one or the other would have made it, but NADA! I know it hurts!

LOL!
