  • Joe? Really, too bad he passed away. He was your son, you could've said more than THAT! You only cared for his money that's why you miss him. You don't have 1 tear, no sadness. You are so insensitive. You were half of Michael's pain & you couldn't even see that! Well I'm happy for Michael, then he's up there in Heaven & wouldn't have to deal with all this pain anymore.

    R.I.P. Michael Jackson

  • Oh yeah, you sound soo sad that your son died, Joseph...he was a star? that's why you're sad he passed away? He was your son, Joseph! Your own flesh and blood but as you used to treat him like the dirt on your shoes and made him have to deal with a stolen childhood and seriously distressed self-confidence all his life, you will probably never be so honest to realize that your disturbing, insufficient education, affected with violence, contempt and force, made MJ the hurt, lonely, sad man he was!

  • BURN IN HELL JOE

    We hate You

  • LMAOOO @ him saying he use to feed Mj's kids....wow...that man is delusional!

  • joe is such a hard ass, i bet that he never allowed himself to believe that he was a huge source of mj's pain..

  • Joe was a good father.. dont give me that crap he was brutal and mean. his kids are all good kids and never got thrown in jail none did drugs none got into trouble. Een MJ said his dad is a genius. jermaine said his dad was a good man. jacksons are a respectable family.

  • HEY.....FUCK JOE JACKSON and FUCK AL SHARPTON  !!!! VOTE UP AND SHOW THEM THEY"RE ASSHOLES !! WE MISS YOU MIKE !!!

  • Joe Jackson is such a worthless and insensitive bastard. I hope he burns for being such a tyrannical asshole.

  • he was murdered by this fucked up godforsaken devilfilled world

  • i still say it wouldn,t be a jackson 5 without joe,,,most african americans got and still do get a ass whoopin ,,whites called it a beating,,this man 5 or so boys to raise in the hood,,people please get a grip on reality,,,Mj was weak on ass whoopins ,,but to stay on solid ground joe did right...

  • i dig wot you saying man.

  • I think it is really wierd that they could not call him "Dad", but Joseph or Joe instead.

  • no father son realation ship. He talks like he only had meet michael and not as his father

  • Sorry but Joe Jackson shows no emotions or loss. The will didn't say Joe and Kathleen Jackson. Mrs J is separeted from him because of his constant cheating and womanizing. MJ was Ill of his father and was a reason to leave father and brothers out.

  • Slimy fat basturd, joe jackson is scum. He wants regular money from Michaels estate now. Even tho Michael did NOT want him to have a dime in his will.

  • WHY IS HE SO ''whatever, who cares?''

    we miss youso much michael (L)

  • FOCK JOE!

    I HATE YOU SO MUCH

  • joe jackson = bull shittttttttttt

  • whatever joe and the family can suck out of this financially-theyll be there

  • now im mad real mad joe jackson......rip michael

  • they love being there with us? this guy sucks

  • In Michaels' entire life he could only recall one time of his father treating him with genuine love, warmth, and gentleness as a father should.

    When he was 5 years old, his father placed him on top of a pony at a carnival where they lived. This one and only memory never left Michael, he would replay it over and over in his mind.

    Obviously it didn't do enough to soothe the emotional scars he suffered. Being told you're too fat, and that your acne must comes from your mother's side. WTF!

  • i hate how old people talk .. they are just mummeling slow words and like "eh eh eh" ... one hour later: * continue sentence *

  • fuck that muthafucka he was such fucking father to michael but on the other side michael can thank him beacause hiss father make him such great but i dont know what is beter have got love from father or be king of pop ????tell me somebody

  • Fuck Joe!!!!!

    He was the reason micheal never loved himself in the first place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i never saw joe until after mj died. i believe he is just bringing his ass out now to just get some publicity and some paper.

    apparently mj said joe used to abuse him physically when he was a kid. you can even tell that the reporter tried to throw a trick question about how close they were and he hesitated in his response.

  • hey this is londell

  • shame on this father like he was for Michael !!!

  • fucked up

  • did this nigga just say 2 bad.

    2 bad...2 bad your SON! is gone...wtf..

  • " TOO BAD" yeah right! this dude lost his sweet loving superstar son!!! OMG!!! this really insults me and like closetbug said he is in a waaaaaaayyyy better place. My goodness and sweet lord! the world is horrible sometimes!

  • "Too bad" Sweet lord... I sure hope Joe Jackson was not being his true self at that moment. It's "TOO BAD" that his own child died?

    Michael is in a better place. For sure!!!!!!!

  • MJ himself spoke about how his father used to beat him so badly, With anything he can get his hands on! He said he was so scared of him that he used to feel to vomit! Listening to Joe Jackson just now made me so mad....he was like "Ah well....well I'm here instead". :s RIP Michael, we love u.

  • Joe reminds me of my own father.

    My dad never liked to show sadness in front of others or grief and would bring up other topics just to keep up with his tough appearance.

  • many people are like that, i don't blame him for nothing though

  • yea u rite they iz a strong familiy...cuz if i was joe child i wouldn't let him hit me...he dnt care tht mj gone..thts a shame r.i.p mj

  • asif he said and its "too bad he passed away so soon"

    too bad? what a shitty parent.

  • Not just a bad parent, one who abused his kids.

  • abusive parents certainly make one's childhood a misery. and if that continues into early teens, that could potentially alter the personlity of the adolescent. he/she will suffer from lack of selfesteem, confusion, revolting feelings etc. in such circumstances these traits become a sort of permanent unless timely help comes from family or close friends. i think MJ must have suffered such a terrible thing in childhood that he couldn't grow out of 'coz he couldn't receive any help from anywhere.

  • I think i'm more upset than Joe is =/

  • i hate joe jackson he used to toture mj

  • No hunni he raised Michael. He loved Michael, he just doesn't know how to show it sometimes. Don't be so quick to judge, Joe's a good guy. He kept his children off the streets. And Michael wouldn't be Michael if it wasn't for him...

  • I don't know what kind of hatred this man has, for a father to be promoting his business on the back of his son's death. I don't think he is interested in creating another Micheal Jackson - thats too much of a tall order, BUT- he wants to create another Jackson 5. Its been that way since the Jackson 5 broke up. All of his music ventures have fallen by the wayside. The man needs to be villified just like Ike Turner and kept away from children as if he were a peadophile.

  • I totally agree with u. The so called fans of MJ need to stop joining in with the media vilification of this man. MJ wouldn't stand for it I'm sure. People need to understand this man's perspective. I don't like the idea of harshly physically punishing children but I grew up in an era and a community where that was the norm especially for boys and we are all strong, unscarred and totally functional adults.

  • From what I can see this is a common case where the abused person believes that there abuser was justified in what they did. That's the control method abusers use it's seen time & time again. ''I hit you but you deserved it'' I actually feel concerned for you rather than angry now at what you're saying. You're still in that part where you feel violence towards children is ok and yet you state harshly punishing is wrong. This is what Joe did to them he beat them for making mistakes when singing.

  • kelike12

    There is nothing wrong with physical punishment towards a child. i.e. spanking, or verbal punishment. However I believe it is totally another story if they're getting whipped with iron cords and extension cords in the face, back and wherever else on their body while being nude for missing notes and dance steps. My God come on! I tear up just imagining that happening to Michael. They would dream and wish that he was lying inside of a casket dead, b/c they were so afraid of him.

  • I think what makes me sick about all this is how the abuser becomes the so called victim to some people. Like they never did a damn thing. That's why there's so much abuse in the world because people numb it as if it's nothing.

  • joe doesnt giv a fuck

  • As usual his words are taken out of context. You just want Michael's kids taken away from the only family they know. I think Michael would be outraged to think his own fans would go along with this. But just as always let the media vilify his father as they did Michael. Go ahead why should anything change now.

  • Yes yes yes..i agree totally..it's like people haven't learned from th eeffect of the negative media hype on Michael..now they are joining in and demonizing his Dad..something I'm sure MJ would never have tolerated.

  • His mother would not have allowed Michael to be badly abused surely. You try to find anyone of his generation who was not subject to harsh disipline. Michael knew that he would not have become a star if not for his father teaching him that anythig was possible and he forgave him in the end. Why can't you? He is old now and you want to keep him away from his own grandchildren?

    Why didn't anyone care about him being around all his other grandchildren.

  • Yes! Tell them!..I think there is a generational problem in understanding of the diffence between physical abuse( of the criminal type) and physical discipline as was the norm in many communities- (not just black communities). I grew up around the Irish community in the UK..same type of thing. Now it is not P.C. for a parent to be seen doing such...and yet look at the madness going on with some kids in the streets. Stabbing each other and having no respect at all for seniority or authority.

  • We could probably debate this topic forever but I'd rather stop. The best thing to do is bare in mind that he was so scared of his father he use to be actually sick when he'd see him. That is not normal discipline some of us are concerned this type of monster should not be around children. It's not all media filled really it's what Michael said himself that have people concerned about this man. He showed that he's cold hearted himself anyway by using his passing to advertise his record company

  • "...too bad he had to be passed away like he is...". This man is a walking embarrassment..

  • Joe J, is celebrating his son's death...maybe he was doing the walk-moon....

  • dude joe jacksons a fuckin moron hes trying to put mjs children into showbiz thats what i heard and there is know way in hell hes able to do that wat so ever

  • I know I really can't understand what's happening here. Why is he even near Michaels children at all let alone he's apparently in his own words in a house with him and catherine. What are the family thinking? He's hardily mourning you can see it. I'd never have the man who abused someone who passed on ANYWHERE near all this. Michael must of stated in his will he didn't want his children in any contact with him right? I'm so worried for the kids now I really am

  • Why are you attacking his father. Michael would not want this now. He raised 9 kids of his own out of poverty on one wage he was able to educate, feed and clothe them and manage their careers. If strict disipline was needed to do that he did the best he could.

  • Stop being melodramatic...if you look at Michaels home videos you can see that MJ was always around both parents even if his relationship was a strain at times with Joe. Stop perpetrating the media hype concerning Joe. The man is old and did a good job of raising 6 boys and 3 girls in relative poverty. Did u know that MJ made his peace with his father.?..The media choose to dwell on something that has been settled within the family. Don't get sucked into the negative hype!

  • It's not really 'negative hype' you don't forget abuse or truly forgive it and abusers never change.

    Abuse is never settled. He was a child abuser and should not be allowed near children and that's final. Michaels children should be safe with family members who are mentally stable.

  • If he is so terrible then how is it that all the other grandkids of the Jackson brothers are aroung him. Have u heard any of the other Jackson grandchildren report that their grandfather is a monster?

    Get a grip!

  • And by the way you think I'm being melodramatic about child abuse? Perhaps you should for one second think about a child being beaten with a belt and THEN see what you think or maybe you'd rather avoid that thought because it'd make you see how disgusting he is? It's people like you who get conned into believing that abuse is forgotten, so called forgiven and abusers apparently change. The fact he's older changes nothing at all. He's mentally unstable. Sure he made ''peace'' with him. Sure

  • I, my siblings and cousins have been physically disciplined with a belt,slipper,stick when growing up as have many children of African descent be it by parents, uncles, grandparents or teahers. So I know what it is to be spanked/whooped. Physical child abuse is not what Joe committed. Harsh discipline? Yes! There is a major difference. Tito et al acknowledge now that while it was hard to take then. They see the tough job that their father had then to raise a family of 6 boys and three girls.

  • To Midnight Sakura1: I acknowledge that maybe in your past u must have suffered some real painful abuse. I'm truly sorry for that.. But sometimes victims of true abuse can be over sensitized to it and read abuse into situations that do not really apply. As for Joe Jackson's mental stability..I do not have evidence to sugest that he is so I will not concur.

  • Joe Jackson's a piece of shit all he cares about money money money

  • "it's a good thaang" what the eff? IT'S A GOOD THING THAT YOUR SON DIED BEFOFE YOU, YOU OLD ABUSIVE BASTARD?

  • In the beginning of the video, Joe said it's a good thing (that his son passed away?). He also said that his wife is fine and everybody is fine (cause his son passed away)... What a dumbass? what a f**er is that???

  • Can this evil mother fucker even speak proper English? "Too bad he had to be passed away like his is and then the world then recognize him, when he's living".???!!! What the hell kind of sentence is that? He's speaking in about three different tenses, which is a sign of either mental retardation or a very poor education. In Joe's case, I suspect it's a bit of both. ....They should have castrated this schizophrenic scumbag before he was able to breed and destroy other lives besides his own.

  • Did anyone watch the Larry King Live, where Larry was speaking to Joe from Las Vegas? He is such a phony!

  • lol all these dead beats and low lifes basting in the fame Michael provided. Even in death Michaels wishes to have his kids protected have fallen by the waste side. It's all about the dollar to Joe and thug friends, but you can't take it with you old man. You will one day pay the price for all the abuse, mental and physical you caused your wife and sons,.especially Michael who you would'nt let call you Dad ! You are a real LOOOOOSER! Anyone that respects MJ memories BAN this new record company

  • Joe is sucking up the fame of his son.. whata a looser !

  • Did she say those words after her 1993 with Michael at the Neverland Ranch? I trying to decide whether or not to write to her or not.

  • I thought "not human" but you have the word : EVIL

  • I dont really like Joe Jackson.

    He used to beat Michael Jackson! What a horrible father. He looks evil, dont you think so?

  • I think he has a devil face, he reminds me of one black & white horror movie that was made in the 1950's.

  • He talks about his own son as if he was a distant friend, his words & attitude show him to be a snake...

  • Since, everyone is in agreement that Michael's Dad is a phony, fake, and anything else that fits that discription. How about we start our own public exposing of this man by writing to magazines, Today show, CNN, or whatever place on how we feel, but I don't know about Oprah she hasn't said anything since Michael died, let alone had sent any condolences to the family, I wonder about her. I even checked her website and there is no remarks from her. Joe needs a taste of his own medicine.

  • i agree with you 100 percent someone needs to call joe out for what he really is and that is a fake he did'nt give a dam about micheal all he cared about is micheal's money i can't stand joe jackson and micheal did not want joe around his kids period

  • Yes

    Joe Jackson bullied Mike when he was a kid and said stupid things about Mikes nose like "What an ugly big nose, that one doesn't come from my side of the family". And there Mikes heart was broken so Joe made Michael get a surgery!!!

    To me, Joe Jackson weren't a good father to Michael even of what of the "Beautiful" things he says about Michael right now.

    And yes Joe Jackson created Michael, but I think that Mike would still get relly great without Joe Jackson as his manager.

  • he wants mj to celebrate his own death????!!!!!!!

    wat a moron

  • it sounds like he isnt really bothered about his sons death the freak bastered

    but anyways

    RIP micheal jackson

  • DUH!! THATS BECAUSE HE'S OLD!

  • i think it is because he really is as stupid as he looks. fuck joe jackson.

    and somebody explain to me why the two most racist hypocrites in the world al sharpton and jesse jackson are doing there? Its just another excuse for them to put their face in front of a camera. what a couple of dipshit, selfish, arogant, racist assholes exploiting micahels death so they can be seen on camera.

    and sheila jackson lee, fuck that dumb bitch too and her friggen house resolution just to be seen on TV.

  • joe talks like a 3rd grader.

  • I've got 4 children, grown up now, and they are the best thing that ever happened to me, How that Jackson dad (well his sperm made them, but to me being a parent is giving your kids LOVE) can stand here now, making his face well known after what he did to Micheal and his kids, is beyond my comprehension , he should be beaten witha belt,and punched and hung upsidedown every day for the rest of his life!! ( May it be short)

  • I'll volunteer my time and service for that cause. There is nothing I like more than beating the shit out of a bully and seeing a bully get the shit beat out of him. So, yeah i'd volunteer for it.

  • grasshppr, which magazine or talk show do you think we should start with. I can say we can forget Oprah, however, I plan to send her a complaint letter for not saying anything about Michael and my thought of her not believing in Michael's skin disease and probably believing Michael was a child molester as well, I found a list that she did another interview in 2005 even though I don't see the video on You Tube.

  • I am just so sorry he will be near Michael children....

  • Me too, Michael would be horrified if he thought that MONSTER was going to be any part of his beloved childrens lives x

  • "it's a good thing" ???? im sorry??? if my dad said that after i die i will come and HOUNT him!! 0o

  • He meant the tribute to Mikey, not his death. Though I must say, he doesn't seem the least bit saddened by his son's death. He sounds like he's talking about some stranger's death. Geeze!

  • Micheal wasn't a stranger to Joe, oh no, Micheal was the little boy that Joe the bully physically abused for all Micheals young life, the B*****d!!!

  • ha! joe jackson has been written OUT of the will of micheal jackson-GOOD- joe jackson deserves nothing but a life time in prison for beating up not only micheal but every other jackson-R.I.P MJ xx

  • Do you know what "post-traumatic stress disorder" is, Joe? Do you know what "night terrors" are?

    Do you know that you are a murderer, Joe? I wonder...

  • I think Joe is senile

  • Idiot calls in his goons, first Sharpton, than a Lawyer, then he plugs his record company.

  • I think Joe Jackson is used as a scapegoat too much. Fair enough he was strict, but hey Michael himself called him a genius. I reckon we should just accept Michael as a great star who had issues and not throwing all the weight on his dad.

  • no punisher is called a genius.

  • just one thing mr.joe

    why were u such a dick to your sons?

  • The world was mourning more than this sucker. Joe Jackson did not come out to celebrate the accomplishments of his son Michael nor the entertainer Michael. He saw opportunity once again. The world knows that Michael or the rest of his siblings did not like Joe Jackson. Can you blame them? Of all the family, why did this dried up prune have to come. Bottle of piss has more smarts than Joe Jackson. If he was going to have someone read a statement from the family, why did he come? Jackass.

  • this guy is a total prick. wtf u beat a child u stupid fuck. "close" bullshit. michael told the world how u used to hang him upside down and beat his ass. he puked when he saw your nasty ass face. your old and should be where michael is.

  • Did he say this is a good thing? It was his first statement lol.. Hes stupid MJ Is the best

  • "So people know him when he was alive?" WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT­TTTT

    did Joe not realize that Micheal was one of the most famous People in the world! and now he is thinking about turning MJS Kids into superstars after micheal kept them out the limmelight

    x

  • the jacksin 3!

  • yeah

    hes talking about getting them the best backing act in the world

    x

  • I wouldn't even call him a father, more like a BASTARD!!!

    He doesn't even care about his son's death, he only cares about the money!

  • Joe Jackson is an ass! A fake, especially now that he is eating up the attention and money due to the death of MJ. He is the one that wouldn't even allow his kids to call him "Dad". You have to do and be more to earn that title than to participate in conception. All he ever saw was dollar signs. If those kids didn't come with a dime attached, Joe would throw them out, too.

  • i only respect joe because he give us an

    superstar like michael jackson

    michael jackson had never a good childtimes, joe always slap michael with

    iron belts ...

    R.I.P MICHAEL JACKSON

  • fuck joe jackson!! he's nothing but a fucking scum bag! michael even said on an interview how much he hated his father for beating them when they were little kids!!! after the death of michael his dad tried to get a shit load of interviews and smiled the hole time while the rest of the family cried their hearts out!!

  • wow. what a response to your son's death. "too bad he had to be passed away like he is...and the world didn't recognize him when he was living." what?

  • this father is a devil - he looks quite good like for a father loosing his child - 'I celebrate for him' - You killed him! so don't even show your face in tv anymore!

  • MJ's kids is going to be so helpless. Nobody can save them I think.

  • You know what? Joe might have had more than his share of faults, but I still think he loved his kids, or at least tried to love them. I certainly hope so, anyway.

  • everyone knows that joe is a big lier and he never helped michael

    go to hell

  • Do you know what he's already talking about doing? "If I get custody of Michael's kids I'm going to turn them into the Jackson three! And I'm going to put them on tour next year!" He's nuts. No wonder Michael stayed away from Joe. You didn't really see them together that often. And when you did see them together Michael looked really uncomfortable. Joe needs to stay away from kids period.

  • Joe stay away from Michael's kids. You will never create the Jackson three with this poor children. Don't violate their innocence as you did to Michael. Life isn' t a circus!

  • why is mj dead and his father not?

  • You mean, that ISN'T Freddy Kruger?

  • i know michael loved his dad very much...but how can he still talk about how he was famous nd ppl shuldv recognized him why dnt u talk about him az a son joe!

  • No way, Michael hated his dad XD He used to throw him against the wall, so he has a good reason to dislike him.

  • He did dstroy M.Js life and now its time for him to destroy the childrens lifes this man is sick!!!!!!!

  • Exactly! He screwed Michael out of a childhood. He made Michael feel ugly which made him become addicted to plastic surgery. I feel for Michael. I feel bad for all the Jackson kids. I don't know why Katherine stays with Joe.

  • joe and sharpton are both cocksuckers

  • DICK!

  • I wish he was the one who died.

    May you rot in hell Joe.

    MJ's problems started with you. Asshole.

  • Michael Jackson rest in peace. Joe Jackson ure an idiot u dont even care about ure son. Do u care about ure family ?

  • NO 'sorry guys we all love kings of pop. i love him verymuchh.but Joe jackson is his father and i know there is some missunderstood ,so pls lets REspect MICHAEL father also past is past.and i know michael loved his dad verymuchh..all about fucking Martin bashir.who made fake interview...i always respect michael's family bottom of ma heart.

  • joe you are a bitch ass punk ass old ass mother fucking dumb ass.joe if you even touch paris,prince,and blanket.i will personaly go to your house an fucking whip your sorry ass.you bitch nigga.shut the fuck up you sorry excuse for a man!!!

  • Comment removed

  • If Joe Jackson died, I would be happy :)

  • A father who always beats his child probably could care less about him. If he loved his kid, he wouldn't always hit him. Maybe Joe was a greedy prick. Think about that. Sure he feels bad, but I don't see that he has much love for him.

  • now i´m gettin so angry!! How do you know if joe jackson is not sad because his son s dead?? Do you know him?? maybe he wasn´t the best father, but what do we know about that?? maybe he had a reason to!! or i don´t know!! But don´t you ever say that he don´t care, cause you have no dea how it´s lke to loose a child!! no idea!!

  • Oh please! He isn't grieving! He's already got big plans to make Michael's children into the Jackson three! If he loved Michael so much why did he treat Michael like shit all his life? Joe is the biggest freak to walk this planet. You can feel sorry for him. I don't. I feel for Michael, his kids, his siblings, and his mom. But I don't feel sorry for Joe.

  • This just changed the whole game for me cuz at the awards which i watched again last night he didnt seem sad and i really wanted to know how he felt but he made me mad at 13 sec. wen he said ITS A GOOD THING!!!!! then said its TOO BAD!! no remorse no sadness no nothing NO WONDER THEY SENT JANET AS BACK UP TO LET THE PUBLIC KNOW HOW THEY REALLY FELT!!! CAUSE JOE JUST HAD A GOOD ASS TIME TRYING TO TAKE NO SENSE!!!!!!

  • he doesnt even look sad one bit. he is just freakin pissed that mj fired him cuz he wuznt a good enough manager which wasnt mj's fault. i bet you the kids even know the bitter relation ship between them. he will probably abuse the kids as well as he did with poor ol mj

  • joe jackson is a devil...! he should go to hell! he is not sad on his son death. michael will not rest in peace if joe had the custody of his child...my goodnesss!

  • he's just happy he got revenge cuz back in the day mj fired him, so their relationship is very bitter

  • Michael was recognised when he was living Joe!

  • What an ass hole, he shouldn't even be laughing or smiling at 1:19, his son just died.

  • u kno, when u been in the business as long as he has u learn how to wear masks, he doing a hell of a job too as i can see but you dont let the media see u hurt

  • jo jackson deserved to be the one that had to go to hell and not michael whos at least living a good life in HEAVEN

  • Joe Jackson is a monster. He's fucking smiling and saying "too bad that my brilliant, gifted, genius son has died." You don't give a damn. He used to beat and whip and terrorize his talented kids. He sat in a corner with a belt or a cane or whatever and beat them if they didn't do it right. And he knew they were talented!! No wonder he's not included in MJ's will.

    Go rot in hell.

  • yes it was the media that KILLED michael jackson but his father is just a plain horrible man a dispicable excuse for a father trying to advertise his hip hop shit while in mourning for his son rot in hell joe jackson you dont deserve anything good in this world

  • I don't like him, he screwed with MJ's head

  • leave joe jackson alone..family go through problems..no one is perfect in the world...why dont you focus on your miserable lives instead of judging his father...micheal jackson wouldnt be what he was havent his father pushed him...it wasnt joe jackson that killed him...it was the media...who continuned to say bad things about him even though both pedhila charges were acquitted..he was proven inocent...i believe those kids parents were liars and screwed micheal over for there money..i love mj rip

  • @zainabhussein: I'm gonna give ole Mr. Jackson the benefit of the doubt, too.

    @Ayamus17foNow: Yeah. Joe deserves a second chance, in my humble opinion.

  • MJ loved Joe and forgave him for whatever he did to him as a child. Joe doesn't have to cry on camera to show that he loves his son or that he is mourning him. MJ loved his father and no one should place judgments, you don't know Michael and you don't know his family. When your not judging MJ your judging his family, what's wrong with you people.

  • what are you talking about its publicly known that he fkn hated his father, he writ his father compleatly out of his will for a reason

  • no he didnt he took him out of the will

  • It's Joe Jackson. We all know his background. I'd feel for Joe if he wasn't talking about turning Michael's kids into the Jackson three. And if he loved Michael so much why didn't he tell Michael sooner? Well I guess we're all a little guitly of that. Some people anyway. Waiting to til people how they feel at the last minute. I feel horrible for Michael's kids but I don't really feel all that bad for Joe. Sorry.

  • joe jackson must stay of the screens forever especiallly now he is taking advantage to start a label and do publicity of it while his son is just died that may say enough of the kind of awfull man he his

  • i dont like this man .

  • WOW joe does not seem sad at all that his son is dead

  • Joe Jackson: Roll over and die...have your face shit on..puckered on..and your decaying body slayed by stray dogs..

    You should have been in that casket instead of Michael!!!!!!

  • just face it everyone joe cheated on katherine and had another daughter......beat his kids badly(everyone gets a whoopin here and there) but what he did was just imbearable to watch on the Jackson movie, he's just a crazy wicked man that needs the help of GOD, so on that note god bless you joe, lord have mercy on his soul.........

  • Nice one joe. i think you have taken alot of shit over this. just because you gave him a few slaps as a kid(we all had it) even if you jumped up and down on his head, which you didn't. it's no excuse for him to fiddle kids !!

  • He didn't give him a "few slaps": he used to beat and terrorize him. He cut those kids no slack: he knew they were talented, and he drove them like a taskmaster. The more Michael gave this guy, the less he got. Cut ouf of MJ's will, he promotes a record label of his own,

    capitalizing on the media focus for

    as long as it lasts.

  • Its ok that he liked sleeping with little boys! Cause after all, he did sell millions of records! Why should we as a nation hold our entertainers accountable for any thing? If we did then they might not sing and dance for us and OMFG that would be a bigger sin than molestation!!! So to all of you superstars out there- DO WHAT EVER U WANT, because when u die we'll wipe your slate clean and buy your memorial albums!!!!

  • man he looks like hes acting. doesnt even look like he cares... but he made mike a superstar

  • Michael could have had it worse. Imagine having Ike Turner as your father. Now that man was the devil. He beat Tina, used her as as an ash tray, burning her with cigarettes, and probably would have kiled her.

    Joe Jackson is a product of his time. His parents probably whooped him, and so on. Going back generations. Not saying it is right, its just what it was.

  • @Hmenon2003: I think his parents left him when he was around 12 years old. That may have traumatized him in a way.

  • i hate that bitch.

    and i hate what he used to do to michael.

    if he died no matter what michael would be upset.

  • Good Lord, the people in this forum should show respect toward Joe Jackson.I think Michael would be upset if he had the capability of seeing or hearing what people are saying about his father.His father meant well and Michael loved him. So much Hatred in this forum. I thought after Obama got elected there would be Peace,Love and Joy. Don't blame me I didn't vote for him!
