Seriously, someone needs to tell Joe Jackson to shut up!
The 80-year-old fame/money whore keeps blabbing about everything and anything at the most inappropriate times.
Now, the elder Jackson has gone on TV’s Extra to chat about, what else, his son Michael Jackson. According to Joe, Michael’s making a bigger impact now since his death back in June. Joe says about his son, “He’s worth more dead than when he was alive. I’d rather have him alive.”
As for Michael’s movie, This Is It, Poppa Jackson admits he wasn’t too happy with the film at first but admitted he later liked it since he’s getting part of the proceed$ it allowed him to remember Michael.
Adds Joe, “I didn’t know what This Is It meant.” But it allowed him to remember Michael “as I knew him best: performing and dancing on stage. Entertaining people.”
And even now, just hearing Michael’s songs still gets Joe very emotional, as he adds that “when I’m off to myself and I start thinking about things that we went through. No one will ever see me, though.”
Poppa Jackson even has some choice words for Michael’s doctor, Conrad Murray, who’s currently under a manslaughter investigation. According to Joe, if he ever sees Murry he’ll “knock him out.”
Joe, if you were this worried about Michael when he was alive, why didn’t you step in sooner or check up on him?
Just askin’.
Check out the entire interview tonight on Extra.
