Michael's Kids To Star In Jackson Reality Show
(10/14/09 7:12 AM)

jacksonskids200.jpgLOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - A&E's The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty, which is to feature the family coming together after the tragic death of its' most famous son, will also feature Michael's kids, Prince, 12, Paris, 11, and Blanket, 7, as part of the cast.

A source tells Us that Michael's oldest sister Rebbie, who has refused to be part of the series, "feels Michael would spin in his grave if he knew his kids would be on this show."

But Janet is apparently on board with the kids being on-camera. As for Katherine, their grandmother and guardian, she's "just going along with things."

Although exposing the kids Michael took such pains to protect from cameras, going so far as to make them wear masks whenever out in public, may be seen as exploiting them, the network seemed pleased with the show, which is set to air in December.

"We have 23 cast members with the last name Jackson," executive producer Jodi Gomes told the mag. "They've done a great job opening up about losing a brother."

I am so upset over this news. Michael's children should be allowed to live free of the cameras and out of the public eye. He was raising them without the pressure of being "famous" and now they are going to be thrust into the public's eye. I am very sad about this, especially knowing how cruel the media and it's readers are...

is this michael`s fathers idea or what? come on! let these kids have a chance of normalcy for once!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is just another money making venture and exploitation of Michael's children. Haven't we realized by now (i.e. Jon & Kate Plus Eight)that the welfare of the children is of no concern? It is all about the almighty dollar. Oh well, the poor Jackson family has to live somehow -- so let's use the kids. After all, the rest of them are totally washed up.

Sad. Michael is probably rolling over in his grave. Shame on Katherine and the Jackson family for breaking the trust that Michael put in them. It's obvious they are more interested in the almighty dollar then they are the children's well being. What's new in unreal "reality" shows! Jon and Kate revisited!!!

Go Rebbie! At least one Jackson has some self-respect and morals.

After all Michael's attempts to keep those kids hidden from the public this is what his family is doing? Awful!

This is just outrageous why are they exposing this kids like this I guess that what Michael wanted for his kids doesn't matter this is just not right Michael has to be in so much pain watching over his kids and knowing everything he tried to do to keep his kids out of the public eye was all for nothing just for them to be exposed for the greedyness of the Joe Jackson Foundation. This is just terrible. RIP Michael...
