EXCLUSIVE:JacksonKidsBrushByStoreSellingPhotosOfThemGrieving
Posted on Dec 18, 2009 @ 10:38AM print it send it
Michael Jackson's children Paris and Prince Michael, on a recent Universal Studios trip, were seen browsing near Universal CityWalk's Magnet Max store, which sells sad photos of them and brother Blanket mourning at their father’s Staples Center memorial for $1.99 a pop, RadarOnline.com has learned.
Paris and Prince were spotted at the Hollywood theme park on a trip with their father's longtime friend, Elizabeth Taylor, for the Halloween Horror Nights show.
PHOTOS: Pictures Of Grieving Jackson Children Sold At Store
A guest in the shop described how mortified they were by the surreal situation.
“After I saw them, I walked into a store which sells things like T-shirts and magnets and pictures of stars as souvenirs," the guest told us. "I couldn’t believe it when I saw photos of the children grieving at the memorial service for]sale[with other pictures of stars. Sure, tourists often buy pictures of icons like Marilyn Monroe or other movie stars, but they’re of them in their prime."

The guest continued in a rant that, we can safely say, speaks for the masses.
“These are pictures of children’s grief. Who in their right mind would buy them as a souvenir? It’s sick. I only hope the children didn’t go into the store and see them. It’s awful to think their sadness is being exploited like that for a couple of dollars.”
UPDATE: Thanks to MJJLaugh - who provided a link to report your disdain regarding the exploitation of children who lost a father. Children who were photographed during their father's memorial for PROFIT.

Hello Sirena,
Thank you for contacting us.
We regret that a photograph of questionable taste was made available for sale at one of the stores on our property. Although the retail outlet in question is one of over 60 separately owned businesses renting space from our company, we have urged the store's management to remove the photograph from their inventory and we're pleased to inform you that they have complied with that request.
We appreciate your concern in this matter.
Sincerely,
Dustin
