I guess anyone with a social media presence or a famous dad can be an Instagram Model. Here is Paris Jackson modeling for some clothing company… I think. When are these socialites going to work real jobs and have a real impact in society. It’s really getting out of hand.
This week, Joe Jackson passed away after a battle with cancer. The man was American Royalty and created a multi-generational dynasty. Paris Jackson posted a heartfelt farewell message to her late grandfather, speaking of her cherished memories of him. And her brother, Prince Jackson, is doing the same. Take a look: Prince shared an image of him with his grandfather. In his captions, he wrote a tribute to his dearly departed loved one. “This man is and always will be an example of sheer willpower and dedication,” Prince begins. That is indisputable, even to Joe’s critics. Prince continues, writing: “He didn’t choose the path that was the easiest.” That’s true. Prince acknowledges that it was a lot of work, “but he choose the path that was best for his family.” Prince then addresses his late grandfather directly. “You taught me to take pride in the Jackson name,” Prince writes. “And what it really means.” It’s a big deal. Prince continues, saying: “You taught me dedication in the face of adversity.” There will always be people who want to tear down the Jackson family. That’s sad. “And most of all,” Prince writes. “You showed me strength and fearlessness.” Prince continues his moving message honoring his late grandfather. “There is and never will be someone like you,” Prince says. Some people really are one-of-a-kind. “Fly free,” Prince instructs him. Then he ends his message. “Until we meet again,” Prince says, adding his grandfather’s nickname: “The Hawk.” Not everyone is fortunate enough to have a close and loving relationship with their grandparents. Some people live too far away from them for it to be economically viable for them to spend much time with them. Some truly unlucky soles have awful grandparents whose parents wisely have little to do with them. Others tragically lose their grandparents in early childhood. To know and love your grandparents as Prince and his siblings have isn’t just a joy — it’s a real privilege. And, let’s be honest: few grandparents can leave such a powerful and lucrative legacy as Joe has left for the Jackson Dynasty. Joe Jackson was no doubt a complicated man in life, and his battle with cancer and his death does not change that. But it is certainly every grandchild’s right to mourn the grandparent they knew and loved in peace. Paris, Prince, and all of their siblings and cousins should be allowed to mourn and grieve without people harassing them directly about their grandfather’s life. There are, unfortunately, still people who try to provoke a response by bringing up allegations against Michael Jackson to his children. They’re the children of this family. Let them have their peace. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam

We may have overlooked something in our latest recap of Little People, Big World. As has been the case over the past few weeks on this TLC favorite, most of the installment centered on the rising tension between Matt and Amy Roloff, which appears to even be placing the future of the family farm at risk . But what about the future of Tori and Zach Roloff? Is the couple really getting set to welcome a second child into their adorable fold? Granted, these Roloffs have only been parents for just over a year, having said an excited hello to son Jackson Kyle last May. But there’s been constant chatter for weeks now that Tori is pregnant again … although the evidence behind these claims has been flimsy at best. On this past Tuesday’s episode of Little People, Big World, Tori and Zach actually addressed the possiiblity of expanding their family. No, it doesn’t sound as though Tori is expecting at this exact moment — but her husband sort of wishes she were. “It’s a ton of work taking care of a child, but it’s very rewarding,” Zach said at one point to the camera, adding: “Being a dad’s been great. Jackson’s the cutest little thing. I would love to have, like, a little pack. I definitely want to have more kids.” It’s safe to assume this will happen eventually, and maybe it will even happen fairly soon. But Tori has one demand before she’s willing to consider a brother or sister for her firstborn: She wants to get a dog first. This isn’t a common demand by a parent already dealing with a one-year old, but dogs are also totally awesome, so we can see where Tori is coming from. Zach, however, countered that that if a dog entered the picture, then the hierarchy in the house was going to push him even further down. So he wasn’t really having it. The reality star basically shot down the idea, prompting Tori to hilariously tell her husband that “the shop is closed.” (We don’t need to translate this for our readers, do we? Just think about it, okay…) Zach subsequently made us laugh at well, telling Tori that shutting her legs to him in bed will be her “loss.” LOL. We really do adore these two and their dynamic. “We fully disagree on the dog situation and what child we want next,” Tori said to conclude this segment on the episode. Oh well. For now, we’re certainly content with photos of Jackson and with updates on Jackson, such as how he’s taking swim lessons and bouncing back well from injury . And if/when Tori and Zach do announce that a sibling is on the way for him? We’ll be the first website to send our congratulations! View Slideshow: Tori Roloff: Pregnant? Again? Already?!?
Getty Images Shantel Jackson Said She Did Not Steal Big Bucks From Ex-Floyd Mayweather As rapper Nelly fights a civil lawsuit for rape, his girlfriend Shantel Jackson may also be headed to a courtroom soon. “The Platinum Life” star has fired back on ex-boyfriend Floyd Mayweather’s claim that she stole cash and used his credit card without permission to fund shopping sprees. The retired pro-boxer said that Jackson hid her alleged ill-gotten gains from him, and he didn’t learn about the thefts until Jackson began bragging about it around town. In her answer, filed Jan. 11 in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Jackson, 34, said she did not steal from Mayweather, with whom she was in a relationship with for eight years. Jackson said in court papers that Mayweather condoned her spending and didn’t have a problem with it until they broke up. PARIS, FRANCE – JANUARY 23: Nelly poses with Shantel Jackson at the Ralph&Russo Haute Couture After Party Spring Summer 2017 show as part of Paris Fashion Week on January 23, 2017 in Paris, France. (Photo by Samir Hussein/Samir Hussein/WireImage) “Cross-complainant consented to the alleged transactions, and/or to cross-defendant’s possession, retention, alleged interference, ownership and control of the disputed property,” Jackon’s answer, obtained by BOSSIP, states. Jackson also said that any legal claim Mayweather may have had was barred by the statute of limitations, and said Mayweather’s own behavior meant he wasn’t entitled to money damages. Jackson said any damage Mayweather may have suffered had nothing to do with her. Jackson – repped by legal eagle Gloria Allred – wants Mayweather’s suit thrown out, her lawyer fees paid and “for such other and further relief as the court may deem just and proper.” A judge has yet to rule on the case.

Tori Roloff is not exactly known as an outspoken individual. From what we gather when we watch Little People, Big World online and when we follow her on social media, Tori is relatively quiet and extremely kind. Her usual Instagram photos and messages? They mostly consist of family snapshots such as the one above, along with harmless captions such as the affiliated one below: “Sun…? At the beach…? In December…? Dream.” But Roloff appears to have finally been pushed too far. She just took her 634,000 Instagram followers by surprise after sharing a somewhat pointed message (at least by her standards) aimed at critics of parenthood. Or at least at those who have a misguided notion of what being a parent entails. Along with the extremely sweet picture below of her husband and son, Tori penned the following speech on Thursday night: One thing I’ve heard a lot lately on social media, and tv, and even in person has me a little upset… I hear people talking about how “life is over” when you have a kid. I think this is such a lie. She went on to explain why she objects so strenuously to this notion: I have found life after having a kid. I’ve found something I can completely pour my soul in to and something that gives me purpose. I hear people tell others that “ah it’s all over from here”… what is? The fact that I can’t stay out all night partying (that’s cool my bedtime is 9 anyway). Having a kid is honestly a gift I know i don’t deserve from God. Life isn’t over when you have a kid… it’s only just beginning! Amen, right?!? Tori rarely takes such a stance online and she rarely brings up her faith in this sort of manner. But having a child can change you. Tori and Zach Roloff welcomed son Jackson Kyle into the world on May 10 and have not been able to stop gushing over him ever since. “I am so obsessed with every move he makes,” Roloff flat out said last week about her first child. She added at the time: “His little fingers. His coos. And I can’t even with his gummy two tooth smile. He literally breaks my heart (in a good way) every time he moves.” Jackson has the same gene for dwarfism as his father, but both Tori and Zach have made it clear this won’t really have an impact on the way they raise him. “Whatever he wants to do in life, we’re going to find a way to help him do it. That’s our job in life now,” Zach told People Magazine shortly after he became a father. What a great attitude. And what a terrific couple. Tori and Zach are likely as “real” as it gets for a husband and wife featured on reality television. We completely agree with Tori’s take here on parenthood and we continued to wish them good luck and happiness. View Slideshow: Jackson Roloff Baby Photos: OMG! He’s So Cute!
While we all wait with bated breath for TLC to announce when Little People, Big World is coming back , we don’t have to wait for news of the Roloffs. Because social media exists. And Tori Roloff is making use of it to tell us exactly how much she loves her precious baby, Jackson Roloff. Or, as the family has taken to calling him: Baby J. Awwww! If you’re finding yourself overwhelmed by Jackson’s cuteness, you’re not alone. Not even Jackson’s own mother is immune. In fact, if anything, Tori Roloff is “I have such FOMO when it comes to this kid.” Before you start googling things or, worse, trying to come up with your own guesses for that achronym, it means: fear of missing out . “I am so obsessed with every move he makes.” That’s human instinct in a nutshell, right there. (Tori Roloff’s post continues, but first, let’s remember exactly how inescapably adorable Jackson Roloff is) He’s. So. Cute. Tori can only begin to list his most precious attributes: “His little fingers. His coos. And I can’t even with his gummy two tooth smile.” We can’t even, either. “He literally breaks my heart (in a good way) every time he moves.” That’s, again, human instinct. Your whole system gets flooded with oxytocin. (This doesn’t just happen with babies; making your favorite person laugh or looking at videos of puppies can do the same thing) “I love being this kids mom.” A lot of parents like to gripe about their kids (totally unfair), so it’s so nice to hear this from Tori. “God has blessed me in such a way. He’s made me realize things don’t matter — people do.” Different people have different views of materialism, but we can probably all agree that your children should come first. Tori ends the beautiful note by reiterating her affection for her infant son, and referring to him by his nickname. “Love you so much baby j.” That’s followed by a cyan heart emoji and the tag: “#babyjroloff” We like the name Jackson, but you know what? “Baby J” is sweet and has the same number of syllables as Ember Jean . That’s probably not why they came up with the nickname — those tend to crop up organically — but it’s a cute little coincidence. Jackson is adorable and, now that Jackson’s over 6 months old , it might not be long before he’s talking. Like, for-real talking. (Different babies develop at different rates — some don’t talk until they’re over a year old, and that’s okay!) For now, though, his parents and the rest of the Roloff clan can just enjoy how precious and sweet he is. Baby J doesn’t need words to show them how much he loves them. Ember Jean recently passed a couple of “milestones,” herself. Not, like, developmental milestones — she’s still only a few months old. But she went to “help” pick out a Christmas tree. And she had her first trip to the beach! Right now, the developmental gap between Ember Jean and Baby J might as well be the grand canyon — just a few months, at their age, make a world of difference. But, in just a few years, their age difference will seem almost meaningless. These two precious cousins will get to grow up, side-by-side. We can’t wait to watch them every step of the way!
Grandparents and grandchildren share a special bond. The Roloffs are certainly no exception. Matt Roloff took to social media to share that it’s getting harder for him to spend time away from his grandbabies, even for just a few days. And we can see why — because in the mean time, Zach Roloff took sweet baby Jackson on a surprise trip to the zoo. And these pictures are golden. This year, Matt Roloff got to welcome two grandchildren into the world. His first two. Early this summer, sweet Jackson Roloff was born . And then, only four months later, precious Ember Jean was born . As a grandparent, that’s a dream come true. (It’s also, we’re sure, exciting stuff for Zach and Tori and for Jeremy and Auj, what with becoming parents and all) Here’s the thing, though. Matt Roloff lives on Roloff Farms with most of the rest of his family, but he has a habit of heading down to Arizona. Most of us are sick to death of this warm weather and would like to squeeze in a few weeks of fall weather before winter arrives, but Matt Roloff likes to enjoy downtime and the warmer weather that Arizona has to offer. But he’s taken to social media to share how difficult that trip is becoming, for one — or two — adorable reasons. Matt Roloff shared this precious photo of his son, Zach, and his grandson, Jackson. Jackson, you can just barely tell, is still dressed like a pumpkin. What a delight. Matt’s caption for the photo, however, proved to be bittersweet: “Had to say good bye to these guys for a couple of days …” Awww, we know that it’s not easy. Especially when you can’t explain to a baby why they won’t see you for a few days. Matt continued: “Headed to Arizona in search of some warm sunny weather..” Again, we’ve absolutely had our fill of warmth and sunlight for 2017, but some people like it more than others. (And we should remember that Matt Roloff is a grandparent and some people, as they get older, become sensitive to cold, particularly in their joints) “Getting harder and harder to leave even just for a few days. Can’t stand to miss even a minute with these precious grand kids.” You know, that’s normal for grandparents who live exceptionally close to their grandchildren. Kids can change overnight. What if your grandbaby learns a new word and you’re not there? What if they learn to walk? And Zach Roloff took to Instagram to share what Jackson got up to. Zach and Tori took Jackson on an impromptu zoo trip. As Zach explains, he’s not usually a huge fan of the zoo: “Great day at the Zoo and World Forestry Discovery Center Museum. Never been too much of a fan of zoos because all the people and the small enclosures but today was class. Nobody was there and the animals were all out. Great day with the family as well.” The trick to visiting lots of places is to go there when it’s not crowded. It’s like going out to dinner on a Tuesday instead of on Friday night. Zach also hinted at a reason that he, especially, might not be comfortable in big crowds … and it’s not his height. Not directly. Zach ended his post with Samuel 16:7, a biblical passage about ignoring what a person looks like because what matters is what they look like on the inside. Interestingly, in context, the passage is referring to a super good-looking man whom the faithful are supposed to reject, but we can see how the words could be a great comfort to someone who feels judged for his appearance by total strangers. And speaking of being judged, Zach and these adorable baby photos got actual hate in the comments for going to a zoo. Zoo animals are either born in captivity or rescued, folks. Often rescued from actual horrible conditions. There are some bad zoos in the world, but most of them are essentially massive animal rescues with habitats and trained professionals. Don’t hate someone for supporting an educational facility that brings joy to children while helping countless wild and even endangered species. Just relax and look at the cute baby: View Slideshow: Jackson Roloff Baby Photos: OMG! He’s So Cute!
