Rebbie Jackson to Perform

By Ryan Leckey
12:56 PM EDT, April 23, 2010



The national spotlight could be shining on a stage in Scranton this weekend as one of the Jacksons gets set to do one of the first concerts by a family member since Michael Jackson's death.

When people think of Rebbie Jackson a music video from YouTube and her hit single from the 1980s called "Centipede" might come to mind.

Jackson talked about her Saturday concert in Scranton Friday while visiting the Hilton Hotel and Conference Center downtown and opened up about her brother, pop star Michael Jackson who died last June.

"They (her family) seem to be coping with it pretty well. It's been very difficult. A long road but like with anyone who loses a loved one, death is a like a sting. You just have to get used to it," Jackson said.

Her concert in the Electric City this weekend, "A Nod to Greatness: Motown and More," will benefit earthquake relief for Haiti and Chile as well as a scholarship fund for Lackawanna College. It will be one of the first performances by a member of the Jackson family since the King of Pop's death.

It's not just the adults who are excited about Rebbie Jackson's performance but also some young kids.

"I think it's really nice of her to take time out of her busy day to come here to put on a show," said Derrick Beleski of Kingston. "She's a legend in music."

The concert will be Saturday, April 24 at 7 p.m. at the Mellow Theater at Lackawanna College in Scranton. For more information call 570-955-1455.

Rebbie Jackson rocks crowd at Motown concert

By Megan Reiter (Staff Writer)
Published: April 25, 2010
The crowd was already on its feet by the time Rebbie Jackson took the stage at Lackawanna College's Mellow Theater on Saturday.

Performing during the Council for Community Affairs benefit concert, "A Nod To Greatness: Motown & More," Ms. Jackson, the eldest sister in music's famed Jackson family, started her evening performance with a cover of Diana Ross' "I'm Coming Out."

Before singing a cover of "Fever," Ms. Jackson reminisced about her first performance in Las Vegas, which her late brother, Michael Jackson, helped choreograph.

"When I hear this song, it reminds me of home," she said as the opening bars of "2300 Jackson Street" played.

Ms. Jackson also sang family hits "I'll Be There," and "Shake Your Body."

"Motown's the best music in the world," said Eileen Gagliardi of Taylor, who was wearing a Michael Jackson T-shirt.

Friends Amy Cohen of Kingston, Jenn Ruston of Scranton and Tatum Neiderhiser and Krisin Hoover of Wilke-Barre, came out to celebrate Ms. Hoover's 30th birthday.

Are they fans? A better term, according to Ms. Cohen, would be "obsessies."

The show also featured Damon Harris with his Temptations Tribute, and local bands Dealer in Wares and Music for Models featuring vocalist Tara Michel.

Proceeds from the Motown show will benefit Lackawanna College's scholarship fund, as well as earthquake relief efforts in Haiti and Chile.

Times-Tribune staff writer Stacy Brown, the show's emcee, received a character recognition plaque from Mayor Chris Doherty as thanks for his contributions to the community.

"Stacy, tonight we honor you," Mr. Doherty said.

Oh Lord!

Not the same Stacy Brown who claimed to have audio tapes of Jermaine talking badly about Michael for a book Jermaine was writing.

Not the same Stacy Brown who had Marlon stocking shelves at a supermarket.

Not the same Stacy Brown who had Randy fixing cars for a living.

Not the same Stacy Brown who had Tito earning pennies for his solo shows.

Not the same Stacy Brown who wrote that "book" with Bob Jones!

Not the same Stacy Brown who got busted for lying, on the witness stand, by T-Mez.

Not the same Stacy Brown who wanted to co-author a negative book with one of the jury members.

Since I'm sure there is more then one Stacy Brown in America, for now, I'd like to believe that THIS Stacy Brown is not the same GREASY creep we all came to know during the trial. It can't be the same GREASY creep who took every opportunity know to men to PUBLICLY disrespect certain members of the Jackson family.

I remember Michael issued a statement during the trial saying Stacy doesn't speak on his behalf, then Rebbie issued one herself stating that Stacy was speaking for her family.

no wonder shes peddling the druggie crap when shes still hanging around greasy brown
 
wow how classy...at this point I prefer someone like Jermaine or Joe at least you know who you're dealing with..
 
This Stacey Brown chic...:bugeyed:......Blah Blah Blah......She is disgusting.....and as for the singer (we all know how she is)......To bad some people will STILL cut the throat of the ones they love...RIP Michael.

Ur right Brown is a common name but there has to be a reason for her ''fondness'' toward him, despite of everything he has said and done about Michael.
 
Stacey Brown????........you all gotta be joking! after the way he slaughtered MJ at every given opportunity? this is why I am so pissed off where family members are concerned!
 
Stacey Brown did co - write that shameful book about MJ with Bob Jones, he also stated many times that MJ was a pedophile, he even went as far as saying that he had seen Michael lick the head of a boy in a plane... go figure. Thanks God Mez told him to go where the sun don't shine.
 
It's just to sad that rebbie is still hanging around stacy,one can never trust the quiet ones,right now i prefer all the loudmouths in the family,at least we know where they stand.IF I was REBBIE I wouldnt be seen dead with a person who wrote disgusting and vile things about my brother.It's disheartening.
 
Stacy Brown made the rounds on MSNBC, Entertainment Tonight and other shows after Michael died....even up to a month or so after Michael died.

He repeatedly threatened to expose what Jermaine allegedly said about Michael for years after the trial. Jermaine went on Larry King to denounce those allegations.

Stacy Brown's words and actions did not escape some in the family. In fact, in one of his interviews he said that some in the family were upset with him.

Apparently, one of them wasn't Rebbie.

A person from KOP wrote this and I agree.

This is an article he wrote after Michael passed, a day after he died calling him again a child mo.

Words elude me if this is the same Stacey Brown, and it appears it is.

Seriously, W-T-F?

I can still see his face talking the ugliest of ugly about Michael on TV back during the time of the trial. Rebbie is seriously still being connected with him in anything?

True, both names, Stacey and Brown, are very common names in U.S., but the likelihood of Rebbie being involved in anything/anyone with that same name raises red flags all over the place for me.

As much as I would like to think only good and positive thoughts of Rebbie, this association with "a" Stacey Brown in r/t the show leads me directly to the intervention stories. And, unfortunately, the timing of all of this, her statements, and her relationship with Stacey Brown during the last trial and now this. Things that make you go "hmmm" even when you don't want to-
 
its convenient that Rebbie interviews to update the media about Michael's kids - to promote her concert...

the only saving grace is that she opted to plead the 5th when asked about Michael's death...it would have been great if whispering Janet did the same...

watch...Janet's words about Michael and going to come back to bite her in the azz..
becuz the defense for Murray will use them..

Wait, I'm lost. What about Rebbie and her "statements" about intervention? Won't that also be used by the defense, much like and in addition to Janet's?
