Gladys Knight On Paris Jackson: 'She Wouldn't Have Any Teeth'

"It’s drama, that’s what it is. If you lived up under the microscope as this family does, everybody has dysfunctionality in their families, either one way or the other. See, I’m from the south and [we] was raised in that southern way. You have to understand Paris is what, 14? How old is Janet? Who’s the one who tries to direct the other one here? And I would think that it’s a good thing she let’s Paris know who she is. She is a Jackson, she shouldn’t be putting the business out there like that. Cause people read into whatever they want to read into, that’s how they get the drama. So, she’s just trying to protect her, in a way. But if she [Paris] called me that, she wouldn’t have any teeth...You respect your elders."

The Jackson Family Explodes

"Anything for money..." Michael Jackson once sang but the words have never rang as true as right now with the Jackson family coming to blows over the future of Michael's children and the estate.

Watch the story and surveillance video captured below.

O, Janet. Janet. Where For Art Thou?

I miss Janet Jackson. 

Since her unofficial retirement from recording, she has woefully attempted to pick up acting in horrible Tyler Perry movies is awfully sweaty roles which leave her looking....well, less than up to par with what her fans are used to seeing.

Janet's album sales began to tank about a decade ago for two reasons:  1) she continues to sing like she's a 16 year old girl who has to sneak out of windows to see boys (?). Really, Janet? You are nearly 50 years old and you're still saying, "Hit me on my hip."?  2) She dumped Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. The maestros. The two men who singlehandedly gave her a career. Bad move.

For those of you who miss her much, here's a little known video to satiate until she decides to kick her eating disorder into Skinny Mode and began recording again...
