joe jackson might be the devil

Prince Jackson and sexy Austin Powers his sister Paris were forced on stage last night at the Staples Center in LA to accept a Grammy for their dad Michael, their first public appearance since his televised funeral in June. Which, by the way, was also held on that same stage at the Staples Center.

Now we can go back and forth all day as to whether you should push a 12-year-old boy in front of millions and have him relive his dads very recent funeral, but that would lead us nowhere. Maybe you should, maybe you shouldn’t. Ripping apart a child’s open wounds wasn’t the important thing about last night. I think we can all agree that the important thing was the chance to rehabilitate Joe Jacksons reputation. The Hollywood Reporter says…

(Michaels) kids, Prince and Paris, whom he draped in bee keeper’s hats and masks to keep them out of the public, took center stage and accepted his Lifetime Achievement Award at the 52nd annual Grammy Awards.
Yes, they were poised and articulate. But their remarks were scripted. And when Prince Michael spoke, it was worth examining what he said. He acknowledged both his “grandma” — Katherine Jackson, his legal guardian — and his “grandpa,” Joe Jackson, whom Michael hated. Joe Jackson is currently suing Michael’s estate to get a $20,000-per-month allowance. Michael would have returned to being black before he would have let his kids have anything to do with Joe Jackson. Praising him in public? Never. And poor Prince didn’t realize he was shilling for his “grandpa.” That part was sad.

So Joes plan to convince the world that he’s not a monster who uses kids was to take some kids and bombard them with video and thoughts of their dead dad, so that they could publicly thank Joe. Holy shit. This guy might as well pull mice out of a cage and swallow them whole he’s so creepy. The only way this could get any worse is if he hired a Michael impersonator to whisper into their ear at night about how great Joe is.
