Michael Jackson Cut His Father Joseph Out Of His Will
Michael Jackson’s mother and temporary administrator of his estate is in possession of a will Jackson drew up three weeks before he died.
The will was handed over to Katherine Jackson by Michael’s attorney John Branco today. Jackson had a net worth of $200 million when he died of a heart attack last Thursday.
In the will, Michael left everything to his mother and the three children he raised as his own. Jackson’s father, who forced his children to call him “Joseph” all their lives, gets nothing.

NOT SURPRISED IN THE LEAST LITTLE BIT. IT WAS COMMON KLNOWLEDGE THAT KATHERINE WAS HIS LIFE RIGHT ALONG SIDE HIS CHILDREN.
yeah thats not surprising
That’s wonderful! I can’t stand Joe Jackson.. steady trying to promote his lil record label.
Oh MY Goodness are you serious?!!!!
Why wouldn’t he levae his father anything! Nothing.
He is the one who beat him before he could remember walking. He is the one who slammed him into walls, teased him about his skin and looks to make him feel less than the greatness he was. How dare he not leave the man who cheated on his mother and fathered a child with another woman anything. The nerve of you Michael! Your father even has gone as far as to put on fresh suits, with a big smile and go on any and every TV show that will listen to him to promote his new venture in honor of your death. You go and leave it to your children that your father has told the world you kept from other kids.
Good job Mike….. He can’t ever touch you again.
Rest in peace my brother.
Great post Isc.
This is one of the few Mike posts on here that has made me smile. Take that bastard.
BAM BAM BAM!!! LOVE IT!!!
“Jackson’s father, who forced his children to call him “Joseph” all their lives, gets nothing.”
Katherine is still married to Joseph..Right???
That’s what I thought..Nice try Mike..I totally get what he was trying to do..But trust me..Joe is gettin something..
JustSayin
Wow! I wonder if most, if not all the Joe/”Jackson Family” stories true.
Everybody if you can go to youtube and watch living with micahel jackson take two. it gives so much detail into Michael’s life. it’s the rebuttal video of what Martain Beshir did. & shows how the media set him up to be a monster. it’s a great watch for any MJ fans.
@iscream
@iscream
That’s RIGHT… Educate these FOOLS !!!
Meaning the ONES who choose to believe the YT-media
thanks iscream!
Anybody see this Rabi on CNN? He said MJ lived for Joe’s approval and always loved him. I can see that being the case.
Sandra- I don’t know if the kids are Debbie’s or not but I do know they DO NOT look like her *sideye*..lol
not surprised at all. i knew his mom and kids would be the main people to get something.
I hope I’m able to post this link to the interview. LOVED IT

Awwwwhh, poor Mike!! Well I guess getting a helluva lot more support from his country in death, instead of life is better than never.
@ Daisy
I can also see that. I think they were a close old school type of family. But Joe did them kids wrong so I can also believe he wouldn’t leave him anything in his will.
Egg on his face.
Told yall something wasn’t right with Joe….
yeah i get the impression because of mother jackson they take care of joe too, but if not for her, he would be out in the cold. pushing ur children is one thing, but i just believe there’s so much more to this family that hasn’t been told. how are 7 of the kids outta 9 all scorned and ill willed?
@ DAISY I HOPE YOUR NOT TALKING ABOUT RABBI SMOOLEY THE ATTENTION WHORE…NO MAAM I WILL NOT BELIEVE ANYTHING THAT MAN HAS TO SAY….
Sandra … the talking commercial on the site … lockes up my puter … just wanted you to know.
OMG KYMMY
I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME!!!!!!

I don’t know which ad you’re talking about. Who is the sponsor? I don’t get any pop ups on my computer because my browser has a pop up blocker turned on. In fact, I thought all browsers have pop up blockers?
I have a pop up blocker and that darn AD still opens up in another window for some reason. And I’m using Mozilla.
@KC If he has been on Oprah before thats him. I didnt know he use to be MJs advisor and traveled with him. He didnt say anything else everybody else hasnt been said. MJ was hooked on pain pills.

Can you tell me what the ad sponsor is? What is the ad talking about? If u give me that info I can kill that ad. Also, in the future, if any ad disrupts your Sandrarose.com experience PLEASE let me know!
Yeah I don’t like him for many reason’s and yes that’s the guy. He’s a snake. From what I understand Michael cut himself from for reasons I don’t know. A lot of people of the Rabbi’s faith came after him after he came out with the song “They Don’t Care About Us” because of the lyrics “Jew Me”.
Okay Sandra let me see if i can get it to pop up i have to close it down and then bring it back up.
It didn’t pop up this time but when it does again I’ll email what it is to you if somebody doesn’t beat me to it.

Yeah Sandra me too, all day really…I thought it was that Jeremih ad for a minute, now after Isc said there was a commercial playing? I never heard or saw a commercial, but if there was supposed to be one playing and it was taking too long to load on my computer it may have caused me to get slowed up too.
@KC Not trying to talk ill of the dead or what have you but it seems like MJ cut anybody out/off who was not going to enable him. Maybe that is not the case. I am just glad he is at peace now. I think MJ had many different sides like everybody else some good other’s not so much again just like all of us.
Sandra your site was slow at work and still slow on my laptop. I thought it was the Jermih add as well. I don’t have a pop up but the site is moving a little slow.

Just goes to show that the grass is just as green or not at all on the other side. I think that they got over along time ago Joe acting a fool and are not surprised but upset that Joe attended the BET awards. I am sure they were watching and that is why Janet said what she did. She did not say one word to her dad sitting court side seat.
im late with the convo, but all day on my work pc this site was slowed and locking up at times, i thought it was the jerhmih ad… the other pop up ad in another window about working online, but that been there and didnt slow it down, i immed close that window…

*******************************************
Did it redirect you to a Dailymotion.com video? I went through all my pop up ad inventories and that’s the only one I found that talks so I killed it. I have my filters set to filter out any talking ads but sometimes one gets through. Thanks for letting me know about it.
@ DAisy, Anna and Spongebob: the Jeremih ads slowed my PC down too. All those ads were trying to load and slowed our computers down. The campaign ends at midnight. So we’ll be back to normal tomorrow. Sorry about that.
Sandra check my other comment, about the working mom’s add. I never got the dailymotion.com video! lol
@ Daisy, I believe that to be true as well, and it’s a shame that he did that. But Rabbi Smooley or whatever his name is, is an attention whore…and makes me ill, lol. Whenever he’s on Oprah and I’m watching I change the channel.
I saw him on another interview last week talking a little slick about Michael, but I can’t recall now what it was in regards too.
THE NANNY OFFICAL STATEMENT. I really hate the media sometime. They can be so mean.
Former Nanny on Michael Jackson’s Death
Copyright 2009 AP
Grace Rwaramba , the former nanny of Michael Jackson ’s three children, released a new statement on Tuesday.
Rwaramba says in a new statement posted on intent.com , “Michael Jackson was an exceptional Human Being. He was gifted, deeply compassionate and brought joy to the lives of so many. He loved his family dearly, and above all, his beautiful children.
“In addition to being my employer over the past 17 years and entrusting the care of his beloved children to me, he was my dear friend. While our friendship had challenges, as do all friendships, he was loyal to the end. I cherish and honor his memory.
“I am shocked, hurt and deeply saddened by recent statements the press has attributed to me, in particular, the OUTRAGOUS and patently FALSE claim that I ‘routinely pumped his stomach after he had ingested a dangerous combination of drugs.’ I DON’T EVEN KNOW HOW TO PUMP A STOMACH!! In addition, I have never spoken to the Times Online, the original source of the story that has now been picked up worldwide. The statements attributed to me confirm the worst in human tendencies to sensationalize tragedy and smear reputations for profit.
“I convey my heartfelt and deepest condolences to Prince , Paris , Blanket and the entire Jackson family. The pain and sorrow I feel over the loss of Michael pales in comparison to what has been taken from them forever.”
*************************
Watch this statemnt fall thru the cracks while the other was picked up by everybody. Watch the video he has always been painted as something he’s not.
Next time iscream, can you delete that extra stuff when you copy and paste lol
@Ice I get all that and understand that as well but this new Nurse on CNN now was just asked about drugs last week and warned him this would happen. I believe her. Sorry. Still doesn’t take away from MJ being an ICON or anything. I knew all these stories would start coming out
Ooh sandra I’m sorry I posted all that. I’m so mad I did pay atten to what I copied & pasted. (Had to do it from sk bc of freezing) here’s the quote
“Michael Jackson was an exceptional Human Being. He was gifted, deeply compassionate and brought joy to the lives of so many. He loved his family dearly, and above all, his beautiful children.

@sandra thanks and I really hope somebody buys his cd but it WONT be me..lol The countdown is on to July 7th MAXWELL! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ Daisy
I saw that lady. You believe her? She barely knew him. This nanny has know him for years. But that’s Mike’s life. They’ll take that woman who didn’t know him and make her creditable because she is talking smack. Just like they put out a false statement by that nanny. & now her real statement is being discredited by you because some random nurse (who even knows if HER story is true).

Wow, iscream you on point, lol. :thanks: And I’m betting TMZ or our favorite blog will be picking this statement up, no maaaam!
I am so glad to know it’s not just my computer. I just got it out of the shop and was going to take it back.
Jackson’s father, who forced his children to call him “Joseph” all their lives, gets nothing.
————————————-
mike coulda at least left joe bi-yearly touch ups for his tatted on mustache and eyebrows down at the local tattoo parlor for the remainder of joe’s life…you know like a gift certificate or something…
Im happy that he didn’t leave anything to Joe but lets be real, he left everything to Katherine and she is still married to him so TRUST he will reap the benefits.
Even though I fully agree with Mikes decision in not leaving Joe anything, I have to say that I don’t know if the Jackson family would be as successful as they are now without Joe pushing them.
Would they have become what they are now if Joe hadnt pushed them so hard?
I don’t know, but he deserves some credit…maybe a shout out. What do you guys think?
Katherine Jackson is one of those amazing old-school moms. She’ll be fair even when she doesn’t want to be. She’s not going to do anyone wrong … I have a feeling Joe Jackson knows that and I hope he doesn’t try to take advantage of it.
@ KC I hope Sandra beats them to the punch.
Lol typo I mean’t to say won’t. Sandra beat them to the punch post the story. By the way iscream, that youtube interview made me really angry at Bashir. And judging by the comments I’m not the only one.
I just hope that one of the more…devoted fans don’t decide to dish out their own brand of MJ justice,
@Ice yep I believe her until proven otherwise…lol I think thats why he asked her cause she was new and didnt know the history she wasn’t supposed to question him cause he was MJ. The Dr that may have killed him didnt know him long either wasnt it only two months?
Hermosa-Hey and I agree I was going to say that about Joe as well but didn’t want stones thrown my way cause I am usually out in left field by myself..lol Right or wrong w/o Joe pushing them so hard there would be no MJ.
kcicero Says:
Sandra check my other comment, about the working mom’s add. I never got the dailymotion.com video! lol
**********************************************************
I saw the working mom’s ad. But there’s no video in that one. Was that ad slowing your pc down?
Hermosa, I don’t think he deserves anything. In a way I see what you’re saying but Michael was always talented and what God has for you is meant for you.
I’ve heard that MJ had a repertoire of 100 songs memorized when he was five already. So the drive was there before his father even thought of the Jackson Five. Maybe Mike would have become a legendary musician through a less troubled past. We’ll never know. But what that man did to him was wrong so I can’t ride for him.
Especially now that he’s on television, smiling and promoting his record company only days after his son died.
@Ice you still on CNN this black female concierge(sp) dr is PAID IN FULL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ Sandra yes, it drives me crazy!!! My popup blocker tells me it blocked it but it just automatically opens up in a new window….
@ iscream:
I knew that quote was bogus, which Is why I never posted that quote on my blog. Lol at her pumping his stomach out in his bedroom with no medical equipment around in case he aspirated.
I
Dr Gupta!!! We handle some of his clinical trials at my job.
gotta go talk to you guys tomorrow.
Watch that video.
@Sandra my sister who is a nurse as well knew that was BS as well..lol
Why is AC360 on the roof tonight?
@ Daisy: Dr. Murray treated Michael for three years. Actually, he didn’t treat Michael since there was nothing medically wrong with him. I should say the doctor set up a 24-hour pharmacy in Michael’s house.
Daisy Says:
@Sandra my sister who is a nurse as well knew that was BS as well..lol
************************************************************
LOL! f you could see the mess when we pump a patient’s stomach out in the hospital! I knew that wasn’t happening in Michael’s house. Not by a nanny!
Goodnight guys, I can only come on after hours now that I’m working full time
@Daisy
I agree.
@kcicero
Don’t get it twisted. I am definately not riding with Joe. He is so innoppriate (sp?), its ridiculous. To me, it shows his true colors, money green!
I don’t know if there would be a Janet or Michael. Michael would not have been able to write such beautiful songs and janet would not have made Control.
I see where youre coming from but I still believe that if Joe didnt do what he did to his kids, we might not have had the incredibly talented michael we had.
Micheal was a hurt soul, hurt that was caused by his father. Without that pain, we wouldnt be listing to half of his music.
okay before i go… (I gotta pick s/o up he is going to kill me.)
KC said

**********************************
Wasn’t it good and informative.
@ Daisy I see the lady but if she is a nurse doesn’t she have some sort of obligation to the patient to a) report any thing funny like addiction b) keep her damn mouth shut now that the man is dead. I think they all should be brought up on charges.

Hey, download these two programs: Spybot Search and Destroy and MalwareBytes. Run both of those programs on your computer beginning with MalwareBytes. Those programs will clean up all that spyware crap. Then reboot your computer and you shouldn’t have any more problems with pop ups.
@KC I didn’t know you were working full time.
@Hermosa - We agree on something else other than J Lo
Night all
@ Sandra
I have ad-aware and bitdefender on my computer. I’ve been told that between those two there’s almost nothing that can get past them. I have the latest Mozilla Firefox Browser.
Please correct me if I am wrong. But aren’t Katherine and Joe no longer together, because he fathered another child around 1972 or 1973? If I recall, Katherine and Joe even live in different states; Katherine in Vegas and Joe in California. I don’t blame Michael, I would not have left his behind anything, as well. Joe is an opportunist! All on CNN and BET talking about his “record label”, while poor Janet could barely hold it together. You could see the pain on her face. As everyone knows, she loved her brother. To Joe, I think Michael was a meal ticket. To Katherine, he was a son!
@Ice she was in FL she only treated the kids. She did her duty as a NP she told the patient NO and warned him of the dangers. He went and found somebody else that said yes that is NOT on her. Now all the other ppl who have been around for years said they tried to do interventions and get him help and thats when he made them exit stage left. You knew this was coming right or wrong. The man is dead and gone so there is no helping him now but if they tried while he was alive I dont mind them speaking out if they are being TRUTHFUL! Like I said he is still an ICON and LEGEND nothing or nobody can take that away from him.
“To Joe, I think Michael was a meal ticket. To Katherine, he was a son!”
CO SIGN 100%
@ Hermosa I see what your saying. His music probably wouldn’t have impacted us in the same way. Michael took his pain and channeled into his music and that is probably what connects with so many people.
If Joe hadn’t been such a prick then maybe we wouldn’t have these songs.
@ Daisy, just started
It’s killing me too, December 9th can’t come fast enough…
@ Sandra thanks for the tip!
@Prissy Katherine and Joe are legally married he said they had a 60th wedding anniv in May and all the kids came. Marlon co signed this story in an interview as well. They are still legally married.
“To Joe, I think Michael was a meal ticket. To Katherine, he was a son!”
Absolutely!
Okay yal I’m going fo real this time or I’m going to be very sorry at 6 am tomorrow. Nite

I don’t know about Bitdefender, but Ad Aware is garbage now. Ad Aware allows a LOT of crap to get by. Trust me, I used to swear by Ad Aware for years until I got hit by a nasty spyware and Ad Aware did not detect it. I no longer use Ad Aware. I use Spybot Search and Destroy and I only use Safari browser to surf the Internet on my PC. Yes, Safari is an Apple/Mac browser.
Am I suppose to act surprised right about now?
@Sandra, I see I made a new friend on your blog today.
Turn my post up because I want these *&*()(* to hear me: http://charactercorner.blogspot.com/2009/06/sidebar-diss-of-day.html
@attneymom
I love you =)
I DINT KNOW HOOW I DID A YEAR ON THIS SITE WITHOUT YOU HERE YOU KNOW NO FEAR AND I LOVE THAT ITS SO RARE TO MEET SOMEONE WHO TELLS IT AS IT IS
@ Charles: I told you that you have a special place in my heart because of your screen name.
I ams sure what Micheal is leaving his mother may have some type of clause in it like “if you give joe $hit then then you get nothing”
@kcicero
YES …that is 1 rooked RABBI…if I ever saw one…people coming out the woodworks…so when the last time u seen MIKE…2002….STFD
And when did RABBIS start telling all ur business on CNN news????? AS FOR JOE….SMH…look what you did to ur child..the news says Catherine doesnt live w.joe.
i tell you what joe deserves….a swift kick to the you know what…
Good, I hope he wasn’t surprise to see he gets nothing.
He should have left $1. That really would have sent a statement and slip the ish out of him for the last time. But never the either way Mike did the right thing. I just hope they don’t victimize Kate.
But either way.
