VIDEO: CNN Interviews Joe Jackson!
Last night at the BET Awards, CNN’s Don Lemon interviewed Joe Jackson about the death of his son. In typical Joe Jackson fashion, the man answered Lemon’s questions with abrupt, detached answers… even going so far as to pass the mic to his spokesperson and attorney and then promoted his record company.
WTF?!
Jackson wasn’t in line with daughter Janet’s feelings and the rest of the world as his answers were strange right off the bat: Lemon asks him how he’s doing and Jackson responds, “great, I’m doing pretty good,” which seems peculiar given the timing of when he lost his son.
“It has been really tough. Remember, we just lost the biggest star in the world,” Jackson concluded. He’s your son, I say…
With the press, understandably, running to Jackson’s parents to hear and share condolences and obtain insight on Michael and his legacy, the person who showed up on the red carpet seemed to be a distant father. No traces of shock or grief, but you can check out the video and see for yourself.
The one thing that’s consistent with all of this though is that his art of promotion definitely seems to be intact.

He is just an ASS!!
And some would argue that without Ike there would’ve been no Tina…however we do not have to ignore the abuse and exploitation in order to acknowledge and cherish the wonderful talent and blessing that Michael became to this entire world. Remember that GOD created Michael and instilled in him all of his talents…in the wake of his death it would be nice to see Joe at least pretend that his son meant more to him that income…but of course he disappoints as always. I think he is simply disgusting…but the media loves it so we’ll be seeing much more of this. He’ll stretch his 15 minutes for as long as he can and then thankfully he will fade back into the past where he belongs.
without Joe there is no mike, bottom line. dude just lost a child. leave it at that. you dont know him personally so keep getting your info online and keep judging people based on that.
I wanna be able to be respectful of what I am going to say about Michaels father.But this M@#$%%@***$ said we lost the biggest star in the world,what about I lost my dear son.He is the root of all Michaels problems,he seem to be a very selfish person and it always have to be about business.His son evidently was nothing to him but a $ sign.We all grieve in different ways,so what he does behind close doors I dont know.But when I saw him last night on the BET Awards his face was blank no emotion.Anyway I have never been that fond of him.But I will stop here because that is one strange A$$ man.
yeah ole joe is a cold dude. i keep trying to make myself not hate him, but he just won’t work with me!
