Rumor Control: La Toya Jackson Denies Taking Control Of MJ’s Kids Careers And Says Their Will Be NO Reality Show On Oprah’s Network!

Toya denies being a gold-digging diva and exploiting her brother’s famous children! La Toya Jackson Denies Controlling Michael Jackson’s Kids Careers La Toya Jackson is firing back at The New York Post, calling a recent article on her relationship with Michael Jackson’s three children “false” and “derogatory.” The article referred to La Toya as a “gold-digging diva” and claimed that she “pounced” while the rest of the family was engaged in a bizarre feud last summer. It also was reported that La Toya is in the process of shopping a Jackson family reality series and that Oprah Winfrey’s OWN was thought to be the front-runner in a $10 million bidding war. Via Billboard reports: Below is La Toya’s response in full, submitted to The Hollywood Reporter by publicist Juliette Harris: “The story in The NY Post is completely and unequivocally false. Neither La Toya nor her company represent any of MJ’s children in any legal capacity nor has she received any commissions or payment as a result of their individual ventures. As a loving Aunt, when the children ask for help or advice she supports them 100%, and will continue to do so. Furthermore, there is no shopping of a reality show for the children. Paris did her movie deal over a year ago directly with the production company and La Toya had nothing to do with it. Over the past year, Prince has continuously asked his Aunt for her help in starting his career because of the infrastructure she has. When she asked her nephew what he wanted for his birthday he replied, “He just wanted to work,” It was at the time that she diligently started to assist him with his career and that’s when Entertainment Tonight was booked and then 90210. La Toya is currently consulting with her attorneys on how to proceed against these false and derogatory statements made by The NY Post and other participating publications.” Looks like Toya will stick to horrible reality shows to get them checks!

Mo’ Money: TJ Jackson Struggling To Take Care Of MJ’s Kids Since Becoming Their Legal Guardian And Asks Jackson Estate To Give Up The Gwap For Help

TJ Jackson Says He’s Struggling To Take Care Of Michael’s Kids Earlier last fall, Tito Jackson’s eldest son TJ stepped in and became the legal guardian of his late uncle Michael Jackson’s three kids to give them some peace and a break from the non-stop family feud that was taking place over Michael’s estate. The family members and reps for MJ’s estate felt that TJ having the kids was the best thing, but now he says he needs some funds to effectively continue his daddy daycare duties. via TMZ TJ Jackson cannot continue to serve as a surrogate parent to Michael Jackson’s 3 kids without getting some compensation, so the Executors of MJ’s Estate are asking the judge to give TJ a reasonable amount of money to keep the ship afloat. The Executors filed legal docs — obtained by TMZ — in which they say TJ has been extremely devoted to Paris, Prince and Blanket since MJ’s death. TJ — who is now a co-guardian along with Katherine Jackson — spends 40 hours a week caring for the 3 kids. The Executors say it’s been a hardship for TJ — who is married with 3 kids of his own. Although he’s been a co-guardian since July, he hasn’t received a single penny for his services. The Executors are asking the judge to allow them to pay TJ $9,000 a month, retroactive to July. They add, the way it’s going now, TJ may not be able to continue, so compensation is essential. Sounds like a pretty good deal to us. If this were any other family member, we might be skeptical of them getting the kids and then asking for money, but all things considered, this sounds pretty legit. Especially since Auntie Janet and her niece Paris might not do too well under one roof ….

The Jackson family has gone through several conflicts last summer: Michael’s mother, Katherine, has lost custody of three grandchildren Paris, Prince and Blanket after being gone for nine days. The three sister and brothers of the star, Janet, Rebbie and Randy, have also closed the relationship with their mother after an attempt to dismiss the executors of Michael Jackson. Janet Jackson has been married twice, first in 1985 with James DeBarge, the second with producer René Elizondo in 1991. They divorced in 2000. Do you think Paris will miss Janet’s wedding because of this family feud??

Joe Jackson Suffers Stroke, Will Be Alright

Joe Jackson, the controversial patriarch of one of entertainment’s most famous families, suffered a stroke Thursday and is being treated in a Las Vegas hospital. He “is in very good spirits” and expects to be discharged today. The mild stroke is similar to two others he suffered in the past five years, another source close to the 83-year-old Jackson said, and he should recover fully. Joe Jackson created and managed the Jackson 5, the legendary R&B-pop group made up of his sons, including the late and iconic Michael Jackson. Although he is still married to Jackson matriarch Katherine Jackson, they live separately. He has a home in Las Vegas, while his wife lives in Calabasas, Calif. Michael Jackson’s three children, Prince, Blanket and Paris Jackson , live with her. Despite his age, Jackson remains active in developing and promoting several businesses and products … sometimes pulling guns and causing drama here and there. Get well soon Joe.

Celebrity Seeds: Paris Jackson Is Actin’ Like A Lil “Hellion” Driving Grandma Katherine To An Early Grave

Dese seeds be actin’ up! Good thing Grandma Katherine don’t be lettin’ ‘em. Paris Jackson is a real problem child apparently…. Via National Enquirer reports : KATHERINE JACKSON is fed up with her grand­daughter PARIS’ wild-child ways. The Jackson fam­ily matriarch has been raising the 14-year-old and her brothers since their famous father, Michael, died of a drug overdose in 2009. But deal­ing with Paris’ antics is proving to be more than Katherine can handle – and she recently blasted the teen over her made-up appearance and rebellious attitude. “Your father would be furious with you!” she screamed at the blue-eyed young beauty, says an insider. Paris raised eyebrows when she appeared at a red carpet event in Beverly Hills on Oct. 11 wearing a curve-hugging blue gown, high heels and heavy makeup. “Paris is growing up way too fast and Katherine is worried to death about her. She looked like a 24-year-old,” revealed an insider. “Katherine blew up and told Paris she was wearing too much makeup, her clothes were too tight and re­vealing, and that she’s hanging out with the wrong crowd. “Katherine was so angry she was in tears. But Paris lashed back at her grandmother for being ‘old-fash­ioned’ and insisted that she’s not doing anything wrong.” Katherine exploded after Paris posted a photo of herself with short, high­lighted hair on her Twitter page, suggesting she’d chopped off her gorgeous light brown locks. “When Katherine saw the picture, she almost had a heart attack,” said the insider. While it turned out that Paris was just playing around with a wig, “Paris’ shenanigans are getting to be too much for Kath­erine,” continued the source. “She’s too old to handle a crazy young teenage girl like that.” The two are also at odds over Paris’ plans to launch an acting career. She’s set to star in the film “Lundon’s Bridge and the Three Keys.” Katherine recently got some help in raising Paris and her brothers. Over the summer, a Los Angeles judge ordered custody of the kids to be split between her and her grandson T.J. Jackson. Still, no one expects that the new arrangement will do much to rein in Paris. “Paris can’t be tamed by anyone,” said the in­sider. “She’s a hellion and it’s driving her grandma crazy.” This sounds like typical teenage stuff, but Katherine Jackson is too old to be dealing with this isht. Where is Joe Jackson and his belt when you really need him? WENN

Kristen Stewart Makes First Post-Scandal Public Appearance

Last night, Kristen Stewart chose a very good time to make her first public appearance since photos surfaced of the actress getting to first base with Rupert Sanders . While most of the entertainment world was watching the MTV Video Music Awards – which included an appearance by Robert Pattinson and other Twilight Saga castmates, who introduced a new Breaking Dawn Part 2 trailer – Stewart walked the red carpet of the Toronto Film Festival. Along with costars Kirsten Dunst and Garrett Hedlund, she was on hand to promote On the Road and she wore a Zuhair Murad dress for the occasion. Stewart doesn’t exactly look thrilled to be at the premiere. But does she ever? You’re more likely to see Kristen wear a “Take Me Back, Rob!” t-shirt on the red carpet than you are to see here don a smile…

Paris Jackson in Glamour: Not Your Typical Teenager

Paris Jackson, 14, is in many ways just a typical teenager. In other ways, Michael Jackson’s little girl is anything but. The daughter of the biggest entertainer in world history spends most of her time as her peers do, navigating high school cliques, listening to music, tweeting at 3:00 a.m., etc. But the famous offspring is ready to step into the spotlight. Her desire to become an actress – one of the decisions that may have led to the public Jackson squabbling in July – has been met with mixed reviews in her family. “A lot of people don’t want me to do [ Janet Jackson in particular does not, openly discouraging the idea, but Aunt La Toya believes in me,” Paris told Glamour . “She heard me play a little guitar and sing, and she started clapping, ‘Oh my God, oh my God.’ She really does encourage me; it’s just awesome of her.” As for Paris Jackson defining herself while living in Michael’s shadow? “I love my dad, and I’m proud to be his daughter. I just don’t think the title ‘M.J.’s daughter’ fits me. A lot of people think he’s the only reason I’m making it … but I want to show I do have talent and that I can make it if I try.” “I want to be my own person. The clique in my class, they don’t like me or my friend because we’re outside of the box. Because we’re not copycats.” “Prince calls me goth, but I’m more rock ‘n’ roll. I listen to older music like AC/DC; Phil Collins is the ish. A ton of kids at school have made fun of me.” “If I had to give advice to other girls, I would say, ‘Hang loose and ignore them. They shouldn’t faze you no matter how popular they think they are.'”

Debbie Rowe on Jackson Kids’ Co-Guardianship: All Good … For Now

Debbie Rowe, the woman who gave birth to two of Michael Jackson’s children, stating she supports the new guardianship situation, with one caveat: She WILL intervene if things don’t work out. Rowe filed documents in L.A. County Superior Court saying she has reviewed and signed off on TJ and Katherine Jackson sharing responsibilities. She’ll be keeping her eye on it, however. Debbie Rowe warns that “Should the arrangement sought by TJ Jackson and Katherine Jackson become untenable, unstable, unsafe, or become in any way contrary to the [children’s best interests], Ms. Rowe will seek court intervention.” Rowe claims her concern is for the health, safety and well-being of HER children; and says she will continue to ensure their needs are met. TJ Jackson, the 34-year-old son of Tito Jackson, was appointed temporary co-guardian of Prince, Blanket and Paris Jackson after last month’s fiasco. When TJ first petitioned for guardianship, the judge said Debbie must be notified. That has clearly happened, and she is satisfied, for now. It’s unclear what recourse Debbie Rowe even has after relinquishing all custody to Michael Jackson years ago, but hopefully we won’t have to find out.

Katherine Jackson Reinstated as Grandkids’ Guardian; Suggests Being Duped Into Arizona Trip

The Jackson family turmoil appears to be simmering down as matriarch Katherine Jackson was reinstated as a guardian of her grandchildren today. The news comes less than 24 hours after Jermaine Jackson put forth an “olive branch” and backed off his challenge to late brother Michael’s will. At a hearing Thursday, Judge Mitchell Beckloff said Katherine was doing a “wonderful job” with MJ’s kids, Prince, 15, Paris, 14, and Blanket, 10. “It’s clear that the children are well cared for by Mrs. Jackson,” he said, according to the L.A. Times . “It is clear to me they love her very much.” The judge also said that the kids’ cousin T.J. Jackson , 34, who was named temporary guardian at an earlier emergency hearing, would remain so. The ruling came after MJ’s brother Jermaine said he had withdrawn his signature from a letter calling Michael’s will “fake, flawed and fraudulent.” Jermaine, Tito, Rebbie, Randy and Janet Jackson accused the executors of the estate of mismanagement and possibly harming Katherine Jackson. Relations haven’t thawed entirely, however. In a court declaration, Katherine seems to suggest she was tricked into traveling to Arizona last month. There, she claims she was blocked from communicating with Prince, Paris, and Blanket – implying there was a coup to strip her of guardianship. Katherine claims she was set to go on a road trip to New Mexico to watch her sons’ concert, until an unnamed doctor told her it was better to fly instead. Katherine says she obliged, believing the doctor was under the orders of her longtime physician, but when she got off the plane, found herself in Tucson. Arizona. According to her lawyer, “Her children took her to a spa … because she had high blood pressure.” She says her phone and iPad were taken away, her in-room telephone was disconnected and TV was also shut off. When Katherine asked about the grandchildren, she was told “they were fine” and there was nothing to worry about. She says she did not know she had been reported missing and her grandkids were freaking out. The declaration contradicts her earlier claims calling the Arizona trip a brief vacation, but surprisingly doesn’t sound so unbelievable in the context of everything that’s transpired in the last several weeks.
