Now, I ain't one to gossip, but word on the street is that the Jackson boys (Michael, Papa Joe, Randy, Tito, Marlon, Jackie, Jermaine) are doin' bad. Broke. Tryin' to make ends meet. Tryin' to make a dollar out of 15 cents. Can You Feel It?
According to this article in the NY Post, Tito has a band that makes $500-$1500 per gig. Jermaine is living at home with Joe & Katherine. Randy fixes cars and does other odd jobs. We all know about Michael. But, the biggest shocker of all is that Marlon reportedly works at Von's Supermarket stocking shelves. Really?! Dang. That would've never happened to Donnie Osmond. The bad part about it is they're blaming Michael. I guess one bad apple can spoil the whole bunch.
Can't they get back on their feet by starting a reality show or something? It worked for Bobby Brown. I would be a faithful viewer. Here are some title suggestions:
- Little Brother
- Joe Knows Best
- Survivor Neverland
- Making the Band 5
- Just Being the Jacksons
Joe must be getting soft in his old age. As long as he had 'em stacking bricks and wearing sequins, they were doing good. Then Janet took "Control", Michael turned "Bad" and the whole clan started to go downhill. Oh well, here's to 1980 when the Jacksons were on top and spreading glitter all over the world and gas was $1.25 a gallon.
