Five Jacksons — Janet, 46, Jermaine, 57, Tito, 58, Randy, 50, and Rebbie, 62 — have come together to contest their late brother Michael Jackson’s will.
The latest Jackson 5 have sent a letter to the two men overseeing the King of Pop’s estate, claiming the will is “fake, flawed and fraudulent.”
“Your heartless pursuit of wealth, fame and power is at the expense of our family, whose deepest desire is to give the world a gift of hope, love and unity through our music,” the letter says. And according to Us Weekly, the letter also claims the stress of the situation caused their mother, Katherine, 82, to have a “mini-stroke.”
The siblings’ mom and Michael’s three children, Prince, 15, Paris, 14, and Blanket, 10, are the only family members named in the will.
Paris, Michael’s only daughter, seems to be over the drama. “I am going to clarify right now that what has been said about my grandmother is a rumor and nothing has happened. She is completely fine,” she tweeted. “I’d like to know who made up the rumor. I will defend my beloved family member with all I have, even if it means from other family members.”
And in a tweet to Uncle Randy, she wrote, “Hello, dear family member. I don’t appreciate you telling everyone things that aren’t true, thank you very much.”
The tweet has since been deleted.
And this isn’t the first time Paris has been the center of family drama. A source tells Us that Janet is furious that her niece has accepted roles in two upcoming films. The source said, “She feels it goes against Michael’s wishes to keep his kids out of the limelight until age 18.”
Once an action star …
Did Tom Cruise take is daughter, Suri, 6, on a wild ride through Manhattan to evade paparazzi?
The New York Daily News claims the “Rock of Ages” star was involved in a high-speed chase where he blew through red lights all over the Lower West Side.
But Tom’s rep claims the news is ridiculous. He’s saying the report that Cruise led at least 10 cars and six motorcycles on a 20-minute chase is “false” and that it “never happened.”
