The Jacksons are flat broke (again)
According to an article in the NY Post, the famous Jackson siblings are broke. It appears that millionaire sibling Michael Jackson and his even more wealthy sister Janet are not sharing the wealth with their less talented brothers.
According to the Post, a couple of the brothers are still living at home with mommy. But isn’t this the same story told in different variations over the past twenty years? Seriously, when has the lesser talented Jacksons ever been ballers? (Source)

I smell a reunion tour, if this is a fact.
Yea every Jackson except Janet…at least she grinds regardless of what the album sales add up to. Maybe Jacko should take notes so that he can pay off his debts.
I hate to sound negative but is this really a surprise!!! I mean after Micheal left Jackson 5 I think they fell off Im sure Janet & Micheal will take care of there family as long as they can but it’s time for them to make a true name for themselves, whatever happened with Latoya & the psychic network???(lol) see that wasn’t even funny!!
Doesn’t surprise me at all.. People need to STOP trying to keep up with the Jones’!
this crazy. i saw on another website that one of them bags groceries and another changes tires for a living! don’t know how true it is though.
I don’t understand how they are broke when they have all been working since they were kids in the 60’s. There must be a trust fund somewhere they forgot about …
Janet appeared on Larry King and pretty much admited that Michael is holding up a Jackson Family reunion tour which she hopes to be the opening act on. I’m sure Mike has he’s reason’s but such a tour would be hugely successful for himself as well as his siblings.
Funny you don’t hear abour Latoya & Rebbie being broke……or their mother…..
Sounds like Mike and Janet ain’t finna take care of no grown azz men who pissed away all their $$$….
I’m just saying….

I seen that this morning….HELL to the NAW! LMAO
You gotta do what you gotta do when you broke…..
I never really know what hollyweird types mean by broke, but the guys are hampered by Mike. They NEED him to tour because they don’t have a body of work without him. It’s unfortunate that whatever is going on in his life or mind prevents him and his siblings from claiming the millions upon millions of dollars that their fans want to throw their way. If the tour does go off the broke ones need to learn how to do something else with their money other than just spending the hell out of it until it’s gone. I know they all made millions off the tour they did in 2001. I shouldn’t all be gone.
They spend all their money on plastic surgery…
Can you blame Janet or Michael? I don’t. I can’t stand when grown ass people think your suppose to support them. Get off your booty and help yourself!!
I don’t believe this story..what is the source? This doesn’t even seem legitimate…!! Papa Joe was a hustler from the start, he instilled that value in his kids..most notably MJ & JJ…we don’t know what they really got going on!!
I don’t believe this…
A. Because their people (Janet & Mike) got money, and I find it hard to believe that they are not resourceful enough to get money from various sources.
B. Money begets money…and they got money all around them! They are the Jacksons and any sane promoter, or investor nationally or internationally would be more than happy to throw deals (not just music) their way!
They may not be as well off as they once were but, please believe they far from broke!!!!
ITA w/Bird…..
I think that child molestation thing has messed up Mike’s mind even more than it was…..
I think that Janet and Mike have strayed away from their roots a bit….they need to “come back home” with their music….I think if Mike came out with an album that went double/triple platinum, he’d be more open to touring…..
I think they need to gone ‘head and get that money….everybody’s with it except Mike’s azz…..LOL
They probably are all broke. And where’s Janet? she has all but about disappeared since her hospitalization and cancellation on SNL.
I mean come on THEY ARE JACKSONS! they can find something to do just because of who they are. Look at randy fat ass! he started a wack dance show “so you think your mama can dance” and he is a judge on American Idol and he cant sing worth a damn! So i think they need to get on their grind and stop gettin nose jobs and doing drugs maybe and step their game up~!!
well i can’t blame janet & michael for not ” sharing the wealth” . yeah i agree they should help their family , but not take care of them . how long should they carry their very grown siblings and their boatload of children ? IMO they are only obligated to take care of their mother.
i would love a jackson 5 reunion tour. there has got to be a good reason why michael won’t do it .
pyt that’s the wrong randy jackson . lol

No you didn’t refer to Idol’s Randy Jackson as one of the royal family! That was too funny. hehehehehe But you have a point. With all the reality shows these guys could have jumped on something by now. Do they have agents? They need them.
I don’t believe they’re broke. Now, they might be by our standards. However, I agree with the earlier post, they are Jackson’s and there has to be a trust fund. I am suprised Joe didn’t see they had their finances in order when they were younger. Once again, people tend to live above their means. I am not sure if Marlon is broke, because years ago he partnered with some other celeb(can’t think who at the time, someone help me), but the venture was actually a success. I don’t think Tito is hurting. I think they might be referring to Randy and Jermaine-if so, he should definitely be ashamamed, because he had success after the Jackson’s, but then again, he has all those kids!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Please tell me you were playing? I am about to cry from lauging over here. Are you trying to get me fired?
lmao. Yall a mess.
they spent everything on wax and make-up. You all saw them at Studio 72 (or at least pics) for New Years!
#8 I don’t hear about Rebbie at all (lmao) it’s like they keep her locked up in a closet somewhere!! after Centipede I think she disapeared!! Jermaine may be the only Jackson that we can remember cause he is so greasy looking!! sadly I couldn’t even name all the boys I got as far as Tito, Jermaine, Randy, & Jackie isn’t it another one cause it’s five brothers in that picture not including Micheal so the 5th brother maybe in the same closet as Rebbie??
ms. peaches the last brother is named marlon .
Tito, pass me a tissue.
Oh yeah thats right Marlon, okay?? moving on lol
I READ SOMEWHERE THEY WERE STILL DOING SHOWS PERFORMING THEIR OLD SONGS…VEGAS IS ALWAYS NLOOKING FOR ENTERTAINMENT…IM SURE THEY CAN AT LEAST GET A GIG THERE!
I love the Jacksons.
DEAD @ you losers eating this up!!!!!
The Randy Jackson on American Idol is not Stephen Randall Jackson peeps. They are two totally different people.
