they were close 40 years ago.. she claims at the end she had no idea who MJ was anymore and that she lost him after Thriller. How were they close? and for being close she sure as hell threw him under the bus after his death. If they were close she would've gotten her brother some help for his sleep disorder that she had no idea he had.

very sad! and she went right along with it.. she could've easily said no Michael questions again
She was talking about her childhood and how they did everything together. How she had his back when things he was going through. They showed Scream and how they won the MTV awards. It seemed she focused more when they were younger during those times. Then she was asked the last time she saw him and what they said.
You know what she mentioned? She was on youtube and remember Michael's private home movies where he talks about Janet and how she and he were the most alike? She never saw that before him talking about her. She said how they will always be connected.
I hope someone will post the interview. It was 1 hour interview. I am afraid I am leaving things out.

So to summarize, any interview that a Jackson does to sell a product will deal significantly on MICHAEL JACKSON. No one will say, this interview is not about him, so I will not answer questions about him. They know that if they say that, it would be difficult for them to get interviews and sell products. Unfortunately, we will see a lot of this now, and the only way we can stop it is to refrain from buying products that uses Michael Jackson as the bait to catch the fish--consumer. Unless, of course, it is a ligit product promoted by the Estate and people we hold in high-esteem, then we will buy.

It wasn't insinuated. It was presented as FACT.
Yeah, but did they need 30 minutes of a one-hour show to rehash non-Janet related aspect of MJ's life?
H-O-T M-E-S-S
.
I wrote this about Latoya's upcoming exploitative book, but I agree it should be applied to Janet. Obviously, her alone, is no longer sufficient to sell anything.
And may I remind you AGAIN, not long ago, Janet refused to answer MJ questions in her interviews. So, why not keep doing it.
I think we all know the answer to that question....When MJ was surrounded by controversy, it was easy to distance oneself from him by refusing to discuss him...now that he is back in the media glare and is selling like hot cakes...it's ok to exploit the relationship. Even know, according to her, she lost MJ was a brother during the Thriller years.
Yeah, I thought it was weird that she had never seen the private videos...when they aired on national TV ages ago
Shows how disconnected she was from his life.

It won't ever change. I don't know why people in this thread are so shocked about Janet talking about him. Wait til Paris starts acting and has to do interviews. She will too be asked about her dad just like Lisa Marie Presley. Michael was a larger then life entertainer. It's bound to happen.
I don't know. They are talking about her feelings about her looks and life and they take the opportunity to ask about his death and how she finally started to grieve. They are going to go there.

Is that how you explain the 1993 extortion? The Lisa Marie Presley marriage? The Neverland rebuttal?
Hmmmmmmmok.

So Janet is talking about these subjects or they are mentioned in voiceover?
I think it was during the part how she was talking about how she had his back and what things he was going through. I guess they were showing examples of that. I don't feel they needed to show that specifically.
medieth did that it pissed me offf i wish the whole thing had taped on my dvdr but i ran outta space ugh anybody gotta copy
Voiceover. She mentioned being there for him and then they showed what Michael dealt with in the narration. Headlines and his Neverland video.

no that is not going to change buy Paris at age 12 represented her father way better than any of other jackson who claim to be in this business for 40 yrs what a shame ,they need to take class from his teenage daughter and son i guess.
thank god i didn't waste 1hr of my life.i think we are also responsible in this hotmess because we flock to tv whenever name Michael is mentioned and when we know how jackson family is ,still we go for it.

To show Janet had his back like she said, they showed clips and narrated about the the 93 scandal because Janet mentioned the allegations as one of the reasons why they did the song scream and MJs answer to what he went through!
But, the public knows all to well about the 93 sh*t, so it was annoying to see that yet, again!

For those still defending Janet, I hope after watching tonight's interview...you will see as clearly as some of us that she is deliberately attacking his legacy.
Notice how she took the time to mention that she, herself, has been in the business since she was 7 (albeit being a child actress on a black sitcom is no where near high profile as the Jackson 5 were) and she never got addicted to drugs or alcohol.
She took the time to make that clear in the public mind...probably thinking by painting her brother as an addict, some might suspect she too, could be one.
She took the time to explain that she never got into drugs or alcohol. Not once did she mention that MJ got initially prescribed these strong drugs because of the Pepsi accident. Not once.

But the difference is, never do the friends and relatives of these other icons let the negative stuff appear anywhere in their interviews.

Here in the states it is February sweeps, and TV is on a mad mission for ratings. And ofcourse use good old reliable yet again.
So sad that Janet no longer has the power to set ground rules for an interview. The Jacksons interviews are too damn predictable. I get really embarass for them and cannot sit through the interview.

I'm going to step in and defend Janet here and I'm prob going to get my head bitten off but I'm used to it. First off I'll say this no I didn't catch the whole thing but I did see alot of the clips leading up to tonight and when she says she didn't really grieve I think I get what she means. See what happened with me when my grandpa died was I was not at all affected didn't shed a tear for months then finally one day I snapped and released all the pressure I had been keeping in. She makes sense when she said she wanted to be strong for everyone else. She herself said she was lost at the memorial service and she didn't want to speak afterwards at the Nokia centre like she did. As for why she's touring what is she going to do sit at home for the rest of her life she has to get on with it. Alright fair enough there's a trial but what difference will Janet's presence make? I'd be different if Michael were still here but honestly what sister wants to hear the horrific details of her brother's death? Anyways end of rant now go ahead and rip my post to death but I've said my two cents.

To find out all the facts herself, that would be a good reason!
