Because their reputation is sullen in America and we are sick of this “Greedy Bunch”, the Jackson Family often take their exploitations of Michael Jackson overseas. Since Michael’s death, the so-called Family’s so-called tributes have been non-stop.
Jermaine
Jackson’s latest feast on Michael’s corpse comes as “a musical comedy”, adapted
from his book titled "You Are Not Alone." The Shows will take place
in Paris on January 21, 27 and 28, 2013. Jermaine will perform songs alongside
David Serero.
While promoting
his musical and new jazz album in Paris, Jermaine dissed Michael Jackson’s Cirque Du
Soleil Shows……… that he had previously lauded.
The following is translation of Jermaine's French interview with Le Parisien.
Jermaine – Gatekeeper of the Jackson Legacy
Jermaine Jackson
was in Paris to promote his show on the life of King of Pop.
He criticizes
other competitor shows.

Jeans, sweater
and sunglasses, he welcomes us into his suite at the Fouquet's where heating is
pushed to its maximum ("Jermaine hates the cold," explains his
entourage). The fourth son of the Jackson siblings visits Paris to promote
"You are not Alone", which will be played at the Variety Theatre on
January 21, 27 and 28th.
The musical was adapted from his published book in which he traced the life of his brother. The show will combine anecdotes and Family films which will be performed onstage by Jermaine and opera singer David Serero.

Q: So what will
the show be like?
JERMAINE
JACKSON: We want to explain the relationship Michael had with his family. They
write a lot about us but now we are telling the truth. And we want to deliver
the best vocal performance.
Q: There are a
lot of shows dedicated to your brother since his death. What do you think of them?
JERMAINE
JACKSON: I saw "Thriller Live" here in Paris and I loved it. But
there are other shows that are not up to it, including the Cirque du Soleil. It’s
not the Family who is behind these shows; it is the executors of Michael’s
Estate. We didn’t have any say on these shows. We are against these shows.
Michael would never have approved these shows. His legacy should be in the
right hands.
Q: This summer,
the media reported that there were major tensions in the Jackson family ...
JERMAINE
JACKSON: People outside of the family want the family to be divided.
Q: There are a
lot of questions about your brother’s death. Do you hope to discover the whole
truth one day?
JERMAINE
JACKSON: We still have lots of questions; we will never know the truth..
Q: You recently
filed an application with the U.S. administration to take the pseudonym
"Jacksun." Why?
JERMAINE
JACKSON: *Sighs* I went to see a lawyer in a tiny little office and I filled
out a form . Jacksun is a reference to the sun. Because I love being in the sun
- Michael loved it too. But in my business, I am keeping the name of Jackson.
Q: What does
your family think [about the last name change]?
JERMAINE
JACKSON: Nothing. Only the media talks about it.

| Note how Jermaine spells Love Jermaine lives for exploiting Michael Jackson |
As usual,
Jermaine assumes the Family spokesperson role, stating that the Family
is against Michael Jackson’s Cirque Du Soleil Show and that they had no say on
the production. As usual, Jermaine's statements are contradictory to his previous
statements and conflicting with the facts.
Jermaine had
PRAISED Michael Jackson’s Cirque De Soleil Show after attending it in Nov 2011.
“I
thought the show was great. I thought it was very exciting. The production was
wonderful. They did a great job. The crowd loved it. Great production and it is
gonna do very well. I was all up in it. “
- JERMAINE
JACKSON
Jermaine claims
the Family had no say in the Cirque De Soleil Shows. I am guessing
he means HE had no say in the production. Jackie Jackson was very much involved.
he means HE had no say in the production. Jackie Jackson was very much involved.
Q: How involved
were you with the Immortal production?
JACKIE
JACKSON: From the very beginning, I was there helping them put things
together. They brought me down before the show came out and they did a whole
run through for me. I was with the whole team. I was so happy to help them and
they were so excited to meet me.
Michael
Jackson’s Children, Paris, Prince and Blanket attended the Cirque du Soleil in
Montreal in October 2011, in Las Vegas in December 2011 and in Los Angeles in January 2012. The children also attended the Immortal Tour promotional events -
Dancing With the Stars Michael Jackson Tribute Night and hand & foot
Imprint Ceremony at Grauman’s Chinese Theater in Hollywood.

“I was looking
for something amazing. I found something far better. I really enjoyed it. It
captured Michael very well. It was very very good, done very very well.”
– Katherine Jackson
“It was amazing.
All of the acts are just completely amazing. It bought tears to my eyes. He would have been proud and he would have loved to be here to see
it.”
– Paris Michael Jackson
“I think he’d be
very proud that they made a show out of his legacy.”
– Prince Michael Jackson,
Jr
Michael
Jackson’s Cirque Du Soleil shows garner acclaims from around the globe as well
as from the Jacksons whose opinions matter. When Michael
was alive, too, Jermaine used to interject himself into Michael Jackson’s life,
trying to steal an ounce of Michael’s dazzling light onto his irrelevant self
to promote whatever lackluster crap he is promoting at the time. Some things never change.
THIS is why
Jermaine was excluded from Michael's life when the Gloved One was alive
and THIS is why Michael’s Estate wants nothing to do with this sour-grapes
loser.
