• Marlon, 51, works at Von's Supermarket in San Diego and lives in an extended-stay hotel.
• Randy, 46, does odd jobs, including repairing cars, and holds onto the "pipe dream" that Michael is going to give him $1.7 million.
• Jackie, 56, is trying to manage his son Siggy's rap career after his clothing business and producing career failed.
• Jermaine, 54, splits his time between his girlfriend's house and his mother's, where Randy and Jackie still live. He also named his son Jermajesty, but that's neither here nor there.
• Tito, 55, is the only brother still making music, but he only nets about "$500 and $1,500 per occasional gig."
• Joe, 79, reportedly spends much of his time dreaming up get-rich-quick schemes — to no avail, obviously.
Janet Jackson, who clearly and sadly, bears the weight of her whole clan on her more successful and competent shoulders, has already bought her mother a house in Las Vegas in anticipation of the family losing its expansive estate in Los Angeles. It seems that the brothers are holding out hope for a reunion tour with their more famous, slightly-less-financially-bankrupt, but probably-more-morally-bankrupt brother — who apparently contributed to their downfall by signing them to his label and refusing to ever release their music — although it's highly doubtful he will ever agree to such an arrangement. I mean, we all know that he's got his own issues.
So…. what did they do with all of their money?
So, even though the facts are stated…I refuse to believe that the Jacksons dont have anything! Especially Mike…I mean, how can you be broke being the greatest of all time…even spending money everyday, you should still have something!
That's why they call it 'show business' instead of 'show is spending every nickel with no thought of tomorrow'.
Strangely, it's kinda sad. I wonder if janet's going to throw a little help their way…
i totally believe that they're broke. i think they were so entranced by their glorious past and by the promise of a future comeback that they weren't living in the present and attending to what was really going on. pretty sad!
It's sad…but I mostly blame Joe. And I still believe in a comeback…that's what they could do to earn a little extra change.
Tito is the last Jackson brother standing. Who would have thought
Jesus, look at those noses.
bmd,
have you see Uncle Ruckus of the Boondocks?
Yes, but I've never paid much attention to his nose. Is it large also?
FYI - that's not a fight you want to pick with me. Been there, done that. And I'm still here. Ya, dig?
what fight is it that you think i'm trying to pick with you? oh, and by not wanting to fight, you mean afraid of making keystrokes?
i don't dig you, no.
