Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

I'm sorry, but Taj didn't really fix anything by posting on twitter except about saying PPB weren't interviewed by Oprah (thank god).

Taj didn't say anything about those photos being sold to TMZ. Neighter did Randy. Maybe someone with a twitter account should ask them, who sold those pics to TMZ?
 
Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

Katherine is a smart woman. She has a lot to tell I guess and needs an audience. Oprah has a huge worldwide audience. I'm sure she won't let Oprah trick her in answering stupid question. Don't forget she had a house full of teens once ;-)
 
Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

The hatred and disrespect for the family from many fans only divides us.
It's a turn off, and I will not be a part of it. Regardless of how people try to spin it, it's not right. It's very sad the fan community has such malice, division and infighting. I want my account closed asap.

Yes, and also I would think Oprah would be more gentle and delicate in interviewing Katherine. This is a woman who has lost her son not long ago and is still grieving. Maybe Katherine will bring up certain things on her own (as she did in that other interview) but I don't think Oprah will push certain issues. Oprah may be badly informed and stubborn in her views towards Michael but I don't think she's a monster. I hope I'm not wrong.

I read through a bunch of posts and I apologize for not calling out specifically who said what. I decided it is best to generalize what it is I am trying to say and I hope and pray you all understand…


My family is my family. I love them. I don't speak to them often. We don't always agree and I have criticism of things they have done and in my opinion have failed to do, but if someone else were to criticize my family I would be upset.


Michael has publicly spoken about his hurt concerning his dad. He did this as a way of helping others to understand him - not to pass insult, judgment or hurt to his dad. I don't recall a single interview where he has criticized his siblings. He may have disagreed with many of the things any and or all members of his family have done but be assured of this he LOVED his family!


We can sit back as spectators and judge Michael's family for the things they do and the choices they make but it's their choices to make and any choices they make it is their consciences that live with those choices. I believe in my heart of hearts the love Mrs. Katherine will forever have for her darling son Michael will propel her to do what she feels is best. Will people try to take advantage of her and the rest of his family? They have been doing so for years so don't expect any parasite to stop now but please don't discredit Michael's mothers heart and her faith and her will to do what is right...


Michael's name was scandalized as we all know and he endured more hurt, pain, public ridicule, judgment and criticism than perhaps any man in history and he never deserved it!!! Tears well up in my eyes as I write these words because I know some of what he endured and that is probably the most minute part of it all and it is devastatingly overwhelming!!! I love him like you do and in honor of Michael again I am asking you his fans to please try not to criticize his family - they love him- he loved them...


I am not asking anyone not to feel a certain way. We are human and it is hard to control the way you feel. What I am asking is for us, all of us not to go to some public board or community and lash out in remarks of distrust or dislike or hatred for relatives of his who are trying their best to do what is right...


I have no idea if Randy was aware of Oprah’s interview or not but why can we not simply take him at his word. When people bring up issues from years ago concerning the trial or whatever then please know that is old news and ancient history. Someone said Randy was accused of taking money from Michael's website… Do we know how many people were out to get Michael or what ways they could have transpired to creep into his funds? I'm not simply talking about hired crooks I'm talking about government agents who wanted to bring the black man Michael Jackson down... I am not defending Randy because I don't know what happened but I am saying please give him the benefit of the doubt. Michael never accused Randy of anything so why should we?


It's time we all start re evaluating our actions - more specifically our words... We are hurting the fans, feeding the press and if his children have access to these websites what do you think they will see, think or believe? Can we please stand together in a show of unity and support and please, please, please can we stop all the backbiting, judgment and hatred that's roaming across the net? Can we start that here? Can we spread it everywhere throughout Michael's fan base as best we can as the Lord allows? Can we do that for Michael? For his children? For each other? Please??? I believe we can look within ourselves and find a way. I know we can!


There is an amazing saying that goes together we stand - divided we fall. If we stand together we will stand- let's not take the fall into sharing, starting or propelling filthy tabloid rumors. Let's share LOVE, let's encourage other to do the same in LOVE and let's watch as God shines a light so bright through each of our hearts all the darkness will have to flee!


I love you guys!


God bless!!!

Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

Mrs. Jackson is smart and a good person who if she wanted to do this, it's her decision. She wants the world to know the real deal about her son
 
Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

thank god for Taj, who always clarifies things for us when we get confused. I am glad and relieved MJ3 won't be on Oprah's show.
 
Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

The dear friend of Randy, Karen Faye, tweets that :

"
wingheart Karen Faye
My heart aches more than any one will every know. Clearly seeing how MJ was never loved as a son...merely a commodity."

This tweet for Joe or the brothers Jermaine and Randy will be the truth but KATHERINE?

This mother was everyday with Mike in court!

I agree. Oprah was at the home and it was a weekend so the kids were probably around and she probbaly did speak to them off camera. If they do decide to do an interview in the near future fans should not have heart attack, some people were really panicking about this and i don't get it. What if Michael children who are 3 individulas with minds of their own decided to say something quick about their father? If fans feel the urge to speak about Michael you can bet his family and especially his kids do or will soon but anytime they speak it'll be "exploitation" as if Paris was forced to speak at the memorial about her father and Prince was forced to write a speech on behalf of his father's achievements. I know alot of fans care about his children, probably more then they need to but alot of it is a bit selfish as if the kids thoughts and feeling aren't being considered just how they want Michael's children to be which is babies forever.

I don't like Oprah, I don't think she is the scum of the earth but she comes across as fake and oppertunistic but you don't make millions and have a tv show for 25 years by having luck. Oprah has a huge audience which I'm sure katherine would like to reach, Michael has always spoke about his mother's kind nature and about forgiveness. If you believe in god then he will ultimately make the decisions on who should be punished in the after life for whatever sins they caused. I have seen post with people saying Michael's mother didn't not love him and she didn't care and it's for money and she should stay quiet, the wrong jackson died and so much more. People forget Michael was not only a superstar but he was a son, a father, a brother, an uncle and etc. His mother, father, brother or whomever has every right to speak out to try to clear her sons name or to give insight to him which the genral public doesn't see. We haven't even seen the interview yet and it's already been criticized.
 
Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

I wonder if it is possible for us to step away from our thoughts and opinions and seek God on what is right and appropriate to say...

I wonder if those who don't know God could step back forgetting thoughts and opinions and search the heart for what is right and apropriate to say...

I wonder where does criticism and love abide together... Criticism is not a friend to love but I imagine love would take criticism in with a smile and warm welcoming arms... Criticism would likely find a way to criticize the actions of love...

If love encouraged criticism to be kind would criticism feel critisized or would the two perhaps find a new place of understanding???

I am at loss for the words to say to one who does not understand me, my words or beliefs... I speak out in love, not in hopes of obtaining love but rather expanding the LOVE that already exists...

I am not intent to offend, hamper or harm but to provoke LOVE...

We have liberties... Freedom of speech is a wonderful liberty... I shall not attempt to hinder ones liberty of speech oh but if somehow I could invoke a kind remark in replace of hostility- I pray to God so let it be...

Far from perfect am I and all the world but this one task I shall continuously attempt to do even as the word of God directs, as Michael Jackson illustrated, as it is written in Hebrews 10:24- "Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds."

If I encourage please do not consider it to be my looking down on another when in fact I am looking up to God for direction on what and how to say the words I say...

Oh criticism will you be embraced in the arms of love and like a butterfly be transformed into encouragement? For what good are words that do not encourage and what good is love that shall not embrace the heart of another.

God bless you!!!

Foreverinmyheart can I please encourage you not to go for the reason you have stated? If we are like bricks in the wall or trickles of water then we only weaken when one who stands for love departs...

Please don't go! I believe even the fans who are being highly critical and those being outright hateful are still those who love love Michael... They are just expressing their feelings as they know how to... Please be a light and shine forth, don't go out or walk away!

We all grow at different rates some people just need more love and time.
Love to you!

The photos seem to be quite low quality, so I'd say someone took them with their phone or something. My guess is that someone from O's team.
 
Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

I was going to respond with a big long scriptural response of why it was ok to speak about the Jackson family as wished as long as it was not overly harsh or tactless. But this is not a board that is governed by scripture. This is a Michael Jackson board that is governed by certain rules, that are as follows:

2. This community is in dedication of Michael Jackson. While constructive criticism is appreciated, there will be no outright attacks on Michael Jackson and his children, and family members. Here are some examples of what will not be permitted on MJJC:
Death threats toward Michael Jackson's siblings and parents
Extreme name calling of Michael Jackson's siblings and parents

Does this mean that we can say whatever we want about family members? No. But does this mean we cannot disagree with family members' actions and publicly express this? No.

This rift brought about in the fan community needs to be mended and both sides need to make more of an effort to do so.

Do NOT come on this board just to call the family names. Just to speak ill of the family. Or, just to wish the worse for them. That is not what the board is about.

However, do NOT come on this board telling members that they are not showing love, or that they are distasteful, or that they are betraying MJ, or that they are to blame for the problems in the fan community just because they disagree with what some family members have done and choose to make it known and they respectfully and articulately express these opinions.

Anyone who cannot come to a forum and cannot maturely engage in discussion and who cannot learn to just agree to disagree when it is warranted and cannot live and let live when it calls for it without especially downgrading MJ or their fellow board members really need come back when their social skills have advanced above grade school level.

These are my opinions. We are all here to give our opinions and we should respect those of one another. And if you feel someone has gone too far, report the post and allow it to be taken care of.

Karen's twitter
If you saw the pain and tears in Michael's eyes when speaking of the pain Oprah created for him, you may be a little upset too. about 5 hours ago via TweetList!

He is probably looking down and shaking his head wondering why his mother would decide to let Oprah into the Jackson household.

I do think there has been some questionable decisions over the years. Just my honest opinion. about 11 hours ago via TweetList!

@MJVictory84 It is difficult to parent, and make unselfish decisions that are in the best interest of our children.

I can't believe she just wrote that about Katherine :no:

A lot of fans follow karen for some reason, now they will be bashing against MJ's own mother, maybe more that before.

Here's the thing that concerns me.

WHO else is going to be on this program? Will the interview be an hour with the Jackson family only?

Ms. Katherine may be smart, but I just don't trust Oprah. If there is an hour with the Jackson family, that "may" work out fine.

BUT if Miss Thang starts with the Jackson family and ends with Lisa Marie Presely or whomever else, that, in my opinion could possibly counter anything good the Jackson's have to say. If somebody comes behind the Jackson family with some OUTLANDISH story (or stories) we all know which interview will leave the biggest impression.

I know there was talk around the fansites regarding Lisa Marie being on with Oprah (was that ever confirmed as official), but I have no idea what the outcome of that little visit was. Is Oprah's plan to ADD Lisa Marie's interview with the Jackson's interview, so that she can "mix it up" a bit? Time will tell!

P.S. what the heck is up with Karen Faye, I thought that her and Randy were pals and she was down with him and the whole "fake" will thing. I guess Randy stopped taking her calls and now she's upset.
 
Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

as far as Karen Faye goes it's also interesting to see how she supported (and defended) Lisa Marie going on to Oprah but now has a problem with Katherine going on. How is that any different?

Karen was probably happy Lisa Marie was going to be on with Oprah because she "hoped" Lisa Marie would share the story about:

"Karen Faye and Lisa Marie Presely speak to the GHOST of Michael Jackson via a PSYCHIC."

LOL!

Well this isn't being followed and nothing is done about it. There is a poster in this thread who is just here to bash the family and is doing so in several threads. This person is broadcasting that Randy is behind these interviews when there is not such proof of that and when there is a clear indication that he was not behind the interviews there's no correction to this poster. There are posters who solely put down other fans simply because they support the family and they belittle, call names and are down right disrespectful because not everyone shares a negative attitude about the family and nothing is done about it. There's nothing articulate about spreading rumors even when there is an indication that the rumor may be false and there's nothing articulate about belittling the intelligence, rights and maturity of other posters simply because they do not share your view about the family. And sad to say, many moderators promote these negative viewpoints.

Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

I def understand Taj's frustration but while is correct to be upset with some fans there seems to be a family member who seems to be encouraging his grandmother to be trashed. If Randy had a problem with this interview there was no need for him to go on twitter and share his problems with the world he should have spoke to his Mother and private. No one on twitter can do anything about this interview and he knows it. However it does allow him to be praised by some knuckleheads who have done nothing but trash the Mother he claims to love while he sits back and does nothing. And for Karen Faye to open her big ass mouth and what does he do nothing.

Taj said they were not interviewed by Oprah; but I don't think he said they were not filmed by Oprah. This is just a thought.

I don't mind Michael's children being filmed; but I do think they are
much too young to be interviewed by the media.
The media exploits everything and everyone.
We will have to wait and see. :yes:

I pray Michael Jackson's children are allowed to
make their own friends, and be around who they
want to be around.

As I said before, if you feel someone is going too far, than report the person. It is very simple. And members are not aware what goes on behind the scenes. I get tired of people assuming what is taking place in situations they are not privy to. And they act as if being a moderator is so easy. And we sit around doing nothing. Mods are giving of their time, to try to make it a place where people can feel free to give their opinions. It is often times not easy. And it is a no win situation where you're hated from people who think you are not acting and from people who think you are acting too much. It is often thankless work that people don't appreciate. Mods are not here to tell people how to think and feel. We are here to react when needed and address the concerns that members have. But, we have our own opinions as well. We try not to take lightly the responsibility in keeping the forum in order. We try not to be people who censor everything that comes out of a person's mouth. And it often means we have to go against what we personally feel.

And if a person feels Randy is behind the interview, so what? There are many opinions on this board where the posters have nothing to back them up but their opinions, their gut. As long as they are implying it is just their opinion, can they not have it? Fans should be aware that they will hear many opinions. You have to be reponsible for what you accept as fact. I myself have still been asking for info about what Randy has done so that I can make an informed decision and until I do get more info I cannot share the opinions of some on this board. But I do not try and stop them for feeling that way. Maybe they do know and just don' t want to share with me? I don't know.

I think as I said before that is going to take both sides giving a little. If you feel a person is demeaning you for no reason, you have much power in your hands to address it. Sometimes we do not understand why something is offensive to you or what is hurtful about it until it is pointed out. Because we don't see it the same way. I don't know what more to say about all of this. I don't know how to make people understand what is acceptable here. It is very tiring mentally.

I agree with yaazgurl. I do not post on here much but I lurk alot and what you said is the truth. I just do not understand how it is okay to bash the family off of some stuff you read in the tabloids. I think that is crazy. Im not sayin they have to support them, but the unecessary bashing is CRAZY!!!! Where is the proof that Randy sold stories to the tabloids???

Re: Katherine Jackson May Be 'Oprah' Bound

well I have been away for awhile and I really dont need to read 34 pages of posts as to why it is wrong for Mrs. Katherine to do this interview with Oprah. Michael despised Oprah...she till this day will call him a pedophile..how can Katherine even think of going on that show and giving Oprah 5 minutes of her time. Sorry folks...she is selling out her dead son. NOT EVEN his mama is standing by him in death..this sickens me. They will all do anything for the money..and now I mean ALL. Randy's tweets mean nothing to me anymore. Michael couldn't trust his family before....and unfortunately...they cannot be trusteed now. Can someone please tell me..WHO in the world is there to protect Michael's name?? If not his own family then who??....I guess its us for now...and his children when they get old enough to have a voice for themselves.
