Gotta say... The Insider's new approach at seperating itself from Entertainment Tonight is working; I'm not too keen about seeing borderline celebrities and so-called 'entertainment journalists' pontificating about the entertainment news of the day. And since the vulture Diane Dimond is perched on the Insider, I will be less likely to watch the show again.
However, the Insider provided a dubious nugget to their incessant Jackson coverage, namely hauling out Joe Jackson's illegitimate daughter, Joh'Vonnie, to talk about herself (read: the private Jacksons).
Joh'Vonnie's resemblance to Joe was outstanding: she looked like a French Mastiff, just like Joe; she had a blind spot when it comes to her place within the Jackson family, just like Joe; and she's capable of making Michael's death all about her and a possible moneymaking tool, just like Joe, Jermaine, and LaToya.
Apparently, Joh'Vonnie wanted the public to know that the Jackson siblings haven't welcomed her into the family with open arms; naturally, she glossed over the point that she was the result of an affair with a side dish and that Katherine was crushed by the betrayal. Given that Katherine is the beloved mother of the nine Jackson siblings, it really shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, although it seems like a surprise to Joh'Vonnie. She even seemed floored that Michael didn't approach or spoke to her at a family reunion. Really? You are shocked that a poster boy for mama's boy would shrink away from meeting the result of his father's many trysts with groupies and jump offs, which MJ may have felt guilty about because he covered up for his father out of fear, which resulted in even more trysts with jump offs - you really are surprised that he didn't want to talk to you, Joh'Vonnie?
But the kicker for me was when Joh'Vonnie expressed her hurt for not being included in MJ's obituary, resulting in an estrangement with Papa Joe. Frankly, Joe was lucky to even be allowed at the funeral, given his red carpet plug for a red carpet when he was supposed to be in mourning for his son. First of all, if I prepare my own obituary and will likely do so, especially after watching the Jackson family milking the whole affair, there will be some relatives omitted from my obituary. Why? Because I don't like them and would rather extricate their existence from my death, much like in my life. Besides, burying Michael was Katherine's domain, given that it was her and him when he was born; the mother of the deceased should take precedence over an errant, abusive, opportunistic father and his jump off's spawn.
So, Joh'Vonnie, your grievance is misplaced. If Joe kicks off and your name is excluded from the obituary, then you can talk $h*t about it. As for Michael, you have no better say in the wake of his death than you did during his life.
JMO, this chick's obvious feeling of entitlement adds even more credence to those MJ phone conversations on You Tube.
