Katherine Jackson has spoken out for the first time since she abruptly left her home in California for a supposedly doctor-recommended vacation in Arizona. Considering the 82-year old mother of Michael Jackson, and legal guardian of his three kids, did not speak to her grandchildren during her time away, there’s been talk that Katherine was taken/held against her will. But she claims that wasn’t the case.
Here is the latest in the ever-growing Jackson family saga: With Katherine Jackson supposedly safe and sound in Arizona, Marlon, Tito and Jackie Jackson appeared on The Insider yesterday and expressed consternation and anger over the whereabouts of their mother. “We’ve been told that our mother is safe,” Marlon told Kevin Frazier. “She’s doing well. But we have not spoken to her. We have not talked to her and I don’t know where my mother is.” The brother of Michael Jackson then choked up and grew animated. He lashed out: “All I know is she is in Arizona, and whatever doctor is saying I can’t talk to my mother you call ME!” Marlon’s sibling, Randy, claims he whisked Katherine off to Arizona under doctor’s orders. But no one has been able to explain why she’s gone nearly two weeks now without making any contact with some of her kids and all three of her grandchildren. As a result of this mystery, TJ Jackson is pursuing legal avenues to take over guardianship of Paris, Prince and Blanket (MJ’s daughter and sons). Most believe this giant mess is related to Michael Jackson’s will, which is being contested by Randy Jackson because it leaves the entirety of the singer’s estate to his children and he’s now using Katherine to try and get the document invalidated. Tito Jackson, however, backed away from that plot this week, publicly stating that he wanted nothing to do with a letter sent by Jermaine, Janet, Rebbie and Randy that challenged the authority and actions of the executor’s of MJ’s will. “I completely retract my signature from the July 17th letter sent to the Executors of my brother Michael’s estate and repudiate all the claims made against them,” Tito told TMZ. “I don’t want any part of that letter whatsoever.”

Jesus take the wheel ! A mother has been arrested after attempting to sell her eight year old daughter for sex just four days before Christmas. Sue Ellen Mims is alleged to have said she would accept $100 for allowing an unknown man to have sex with her daughter. The 33-year-old had approached a man near her home in Panama City, Florida, offering her daughter for sale for sex. The man contacted police and said Mimms had told him the girl would do anything he wanted. Mims was arrested a short time later and her daughter taken into care before being placed with other family members. The man told police he does not know Mims or her daughter and was approached at 10am. Panama City Police Sergeant Jeff Becker said he has never seen anything like this in the 12 years he’s worked in Panama City. ‘It’s disturbing some of my grandchildren are daughters and I can’t even imagine where you must be in live to want to sell your children I can’t even imagine,’ Becker said. After details of Mims arrest was revealed on the local news families in Panama City have contacted the Department of Children and Families to offer their help. A spokesman with DCF said the girl was taken with just the clothes she was wearing and are accepting Christmas gifts. Mims is being held in jail on one count of Selling A Minor For Prostitution. SMH… Whatever drugs she must be on, she needs serious help. Poor baby. There are some terrible parents out there y’all. All we can pray is that their poor children get the love they deserve from other folks before it’s too late and they end up just like their trifling mamas. Source More On Bossip!

I am one of the only three fans featured in that trailer and it was my best friend who spoke those words. Just over a year ago, on August 22nd 2010 in London Ontario, five of my closest friends and I went to the Justin Bieber My World 2.0 tour and it was the best concert of my life, for more than one reason. We weren’t doing anything half assed for this night. All of us spent hours on our tank tops and we decked out our cars to the extreme, blaring Biebs music and dancing out the sun roofs. As we drove down the street, we caught the attention of producers for what was soon to be Justin Bieber’s documentary movie. They ran up to us and straight up asked if we wanted to be interviewed for the movie. Of course after many screams, we rushed to the side of the arena and did a personal interview for nearly 7 minutes. Little did we know, much of that interview would be seen by Justin Bieber and millions of others around the world. As if that wasn’t enough, half way through the concert when Justin was riding on his infamous heart shaped machine through the crowd, a lady (I later discovered from watching the movie was one of Justin’s managers, Allison) pulled me into the aisle and told me to get my friend. They all were standing on chairs down the row, so I figured they would merely be scolded and I randomly grabbed the closest one to me. But she was very specific, she wanted my friend Rachael only. When we finally got her, all we heard was a scream and her being whisked away. Within the next two minutes, our friend was on stage being sung to by Justin Bieber himself (Yes, she is the girl in the movie who is sobbing her eyes out and wailing her love for him). It was an unbelievable experience in itself, and I couldn’t imagine how much better it could get until I received a call from Los Angeles asking for my parent’s signature to be officially allowed to be participated in the film , and two weeks later to see myself on a flat screen TV, split seconds after Usher was on screen. After the trailer craziness, the movie finally was released and we were featured over four times together and individually. One day after the entire affair was long over, I was shuffling through my drawers and I found a disgruntled and ripped Bucket List that I had thrown out on one dreary day. I had thrown it out because I believed my very first number, ‘Be In a Justin Bieber Video’, could never come true. I am pleased to say, I have crossed that off my list of things to do before I die. Justin Bieber has given me and my friends a story to share with our grandchildren. He gave me hope. Hope you enjoy, Ivana Read more from the original source: I am one of the only three fans featured in that trailer and it…

Steinbrenner III announces his passing. He passed away this morning in Tampa, Fla., at age 80,” the family said in a statement. “He was an incredible and charitable man.

He took a great but struggling franchise and turned it into a champion again.” Spokesman Howard Rubenstein said he died Tuesday morning. He had a heart attack, was taken to St. Joseph's Hospital in Tampa, Fla., and died at about 6:30 a.m, according to multiple reports. The Steinbrenner family said that funeral arrangements will be private, however details about an additional public service will be announced at a later date.

As authorities in Mexico prepare to file charges against Bruce Beresford-Redman for the recent murder of his wife , the former TV producer will likely lose his children soon. Bruce’s parents, David and Juanita Beresford-Redman have filed the necessary paperwork in L.A. County Superior Court that would make them permanent guardians of Alec and Camilla, the kids Bruce had with his late wife, Monica. The couple already has temporary custody . In the documents, David and Juanita say they are retired and in good heath, enjoy a solid relationship with Alec and Camilia and are “able to devote ourselves to the care and nurture of our grandchildren.” “We are both well-educated, each with a masters degree… we will be able to address questions that arise from our grandchildren,” they wrote. Bruce reportedly wants it this way, as his children will at least end up in the care of close relatives.
