The Twisted Jackson Family Tree
This just in from the First Family of Crazy: The Jacksons. Marlon Jackson (he's the other child voice in the 1970 single "I'll Be There") has announced plans to develop a slave history theme park along with a Jackson 5 museum within a luxury resort in Nigeria.
"The development will cater to the country's growing tourism industry, particularly African-American tourists who wish to trace their Nigerian roots," according to a recent report in the U.K newspaper The Guardian. "Visitors will be able to explore the site of the former transatlantic slave trade, honour the hundreds of thousands who died in what were horrific human rights abuses, and then head off for a round of golf or a massage, before gawping at animatronic versions of the siblings who sang ABC and I Want You Back."
Whoa. What was that '80s joke? "There's always a Tito lying around somewhere." I think it's time to check in with the rest of the Jackson clan to see what else they're up to these days.

lifelong said "What people do in their lives its their business..just because he is an actor( so what, that's just a job).. He is human.. let us not forget he too has emotions..shopping spree, love life.. and etc just like the rest of us.. so people that always are interested to know about actors so much.. wanna know what they do and when.. you guys dont have a f***ing life. Get a life.. a job.. a something! See you dont wanna be you!"
fed-up said "Chevy Chase was very funny when he was on SNL. That was a very funny show during the 70s, with the first set of comedians but, like Magic Johnson, Chevy Chase was a flop when he got his own show. And Alf was just too strange--he was just awful--a disaster! I really hated Alf, really did not like that character! Wasn't cute or adorable. Didn't like him at all. Still don't!"
Timo said "C'mon folks, the dude just a cool good actor. I don't care what kind of movie it is as long as Nicolas Cage or Denzel (my other obsession) are in it. His spending? I would buy all that shit especially the houses if I could afford it. Octopus and Cobra? NO. I laughed my ribs off from his admission ...."We come from a long lineage of robbers and highwaymen in Italy. Even killers." Go Nic just don't end up broke like Mike Tyson!"
majik said "eBay was made for people like this. Some of the things owned by Nicholas will go for huge money as long as it does not appear to be a firesale. I enjoy all of his movies and do hope that Mr. Cage can continue to provide the entertainment on and off screen for a very long time to come."
mickey_dees2009 said "It seems to me that some people are forgetting where we live. This is the United States of America! And as such we are entitled to freedoms. If we choose to spend our money on "weird" items, then so be it! Its our money and we can do with it as we wish. Put yourself in his shoes and you would more than likely buy what he is being criticized for. Would you like for the people or the government to tell you what you can and cannot buy or own? NO! Get off it! Nic Cage is a great actor. Period.And as far as 'helping charities , he does help by donating his time and money (money that he worked for) to charities and needy orginations. "Help the the children and people of Kenya"? For those of who still believe in God and doing what is morally right, Take care of what is in your own backyard. Clean up this country and then we will be in better shape to help others. Also, who was it that came up with the website godismichaeljackson, is a fool. Pure and simple.! That is blasphemy 100 % ! No human (dead or alive) can compare to God."
dwightmlee said "You failed to mention that he has one of the biggest egos on the planet! There’s the answer to all your questions. His financial problems – all attributable to his massive ego – but of course he blames them on others – like all the egotists always blame everything – on others!"
jeffreyw4 said "I've always been puzzled by this "brilliant actor" buzz. Nic Cage is a reasonably competent actor and has some emotional range. But he is a one character performer. That is, he ultimately only plays himself. And a lot of his delivery has a sort of monotone blandness to it. By contrast great actors like Philip Seymour Hoffman and Daniel Day Lewis not only can emote (much more convincingly, I would add) but can also take on truly diverse roles. "
BRUT said "Mr. Cage is a brilliant actor who has every right to spend his hard earned money any way he wants. Eccentric lifestyle adds to his box office appeal and I would feel honored to have met the man someday. You try making that much money and not being a little quirky with it. Carry on Nick - your fans will not think less of you no matter what weird things they say about you. You have provided hours of high quality entertainment for all of us and I thank you."

To the Jackson Family,
I pray that God will keep you all in peace, give you strength, guidance and courage to continue to walk your life destiny path. My heart goes out to Katherine Jackson as a mother I'm told the burning pain does go away I praise your strenth. I grew up with the Jackson 5 and I still find it hard to believe Michael is gone. I have prayed for his peace many nights.Although I did not know him personally, I knew him in spirit. The day I heard the news I prayed it wasn't true for his life to be spared. You all will remain in my prayers Always.

I believe this phone has misidentified the family members. That's Marlon, not Jermaine. Also, that's Randy, not Marlon. It should read: Marlon, Michael, Janet, Tito, Randy, and Jackie. (This is from left to right.)

I am amazed at how people tend to come out of the woodwork when something happens. (someone in Las Vegas is saying he was his gay lover?) They all need to crawl back under that rock in which they came. Michael Jackson needs to rest in peace. The family needs their time. And how about the media stepping back and letting the family bury him where they see fit without us needing to know where that is at this time. I want the family to know that I am truly sorry for their loss and hope that the mess with kids, money and debt can be fixed without too much fuss. God bless you and take care of each other.
