Interview zu Michael`s Kindern auf showbizz tonigt

[Lena]

Zugegebener Maßen wenig Zitate direkt von Kathrine (nur zum Schauspielunterricht und das Paris es will und das die Kinder keine Angst vor der Entertainment-Industrie haben). Aber Alan Duke hat offensichtlich den direkten Draht zu Kathrine (er hat ja zig Interviews mit ihr gemacht). Demnach werden wir Paris wohl bald als Teenager-Schauspierlerin erleben und Prince als Werbeträger. Da fällt mir dann auch wieder der Deutschlandbesuch mit Michael`s EX-Manager ein.

Hello, I`m A.J. Hammer in New York with big news breaking tonight. So what`s the hold up? Why did the jury in the Michael Jackson death trial go at it all day today on the first day of deliberations without making up their minds? After the defense and prosecution finish their closing arguments, there was a widespread feeling that, you know what, this was a slam dunk, that Dr. Conrad Murray will be found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson.

So what`s the mystery behind the hold up? We will get to that in a second.

But first, what about the kids, Michael`s two children? Like everyone else, they are on pins and needles waiting for a verdict so they can move on with their lives as well. And SHOWBIZ TONIGHT can tell you that they are already laying groundwork to follow in the footsteps of their father in show business. But would that be the wrong thing to do? Here is "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT`s" Kareen Wynter with a SHOWBIZ TONIGHT special report.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

KAREEN WYNTER, HLN ENTERTAINMENT CORRESPONDENT: With amazing moves and a simulating voice, Michael Jackson became an entertainment sensation. Now SHOWBIZ TONIGHT can tell you his oldest kids want to follow their dad`s path. The heirs to the King of Pop are going into show business, says CNN`s Alan Duke.

ALAN DUKE, CNN WIRE ENTERTAINMENT EDITOR: Paris is interested in acting, being a teenage actress. And Prince is interested in the business side of entertainment. And I think we will see that very soon.

WYNTER: Katherine Jackson confirmed the news exclusively to SHOWBIZ TONIGHT. She is raising Michael`s kids and tells "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" 13- year-old Paris and 14-year-old Prince are getting ready for their close-up.

KATHERINE JACKSON, MICHAEL JACKSON`S MOTHER: They are taking acting lessons. This is what they want to do and well, Paris really wants to be an actress.

WYNTER: The entertainment world, that doesn`t scare them at all?

JACKSON: Not at all.

WYNTER: Alan Duke says some powerful people in the entertainment industry are looking out for Paris and Prince.

DUKE: Will and Jada Smith helped both of them. They have been going to acting classes with Will and Jada`s children. And no doubt that that family will open doors for the Jackson children.

WYNTER: Since their father`s tragic death, M.J.`s kids stepped out on the world`s stage, most recently appearing at a tribute concert to Michael in Wales. And Paris proved at ease on camera when she spoke over the summer about her dad.

PARIS JACKSON, MICHAEL JACKSON`S DAUGHTER: One of the greatest and nicest guys ever.

WYNTER: But SHOWBIZ TONIGHT wants to know if the kids go into show business, are they risking heartache? Publicist Marvet Britto who helped guide the careers of Mariah Carey, Kim Cattrall and Angela Bassett, among others, says Paris and Prince face the crushing weight of expectation.

MARVET BRITTO, PUBLICIST, THE BRITTO AGENCY: You really are under a magnifying glass and the public expects you to be as great or greater than your -- than the legacy from which you come.

WYNTER: And there`s another risk. Their wealth and budding fame could attract false friends and users.

BRITTO: There are people who will try to attach themselves to Paris, Prince and maybe even young Blanket. Prince Jackson I know is thinking hard about who can he trust.

WYNTER: A weary Prince tweeted recently, People behind you are opportunists. People in front of you are enemies. And people beside you are lasting friends." Entrepreneurs are already approaching him with endorsement deals.

DUKE: Prince Jackson, as they say, is bankable. And yes, a lot of product would like his endorsement, would like to associate themselves with Prince Jackson because of his father.

WYNTER: Their father is gone but the children can count on savvy aunts, uncles, and grandparents to guide them through the minefields of show business.

BRITTO: They certainly have people. Aunt Janet, the very individuals who shape the legacy and built the Jackson five family are still alive and still very much in the lives of his children.

WYNTER: Marvet Britto tells "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" one thing is key to the kids` success.

BRITTO: The best advice I would give Michael Jackson`s children is to stay grounded, to learn everything they can about the business, to educate themselves about the business.

WYNTER: Britto says if they do that, anything is possible.

BRITTO: I wouldn`t be surprised if they were able to be guided to be just as successful as Michael Jackson was.

WYNTER: And that would make them truly worthy heirs to the king of pop.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

HAMMER: That was SHOWBIZ TONIGHT`s Kareen Wynter, who joins us right now from outside the courthouse in Los Angeles where the jury has been busy deliberating. Also with me in New York tonight, Sunny Hostin, legal contributor with "In Session" on TruTV. I think it`s going to be fascinating to see what the King of Pop`s kids do as they grow up and they mature.

But right now, of course, all eyes are on the jury in the Dr. Conrad Murray trial. Tonight, the big question is this -- could they actually acquit Michael`s doctor of involuntary manslaughter. I know that a lot of people think that Dr. Murray being found not guilty is farfetched that point. But HLN`s own Nancy Grace just revealed on "Good Morning America" that she actually thinks Conrad Murray could beat the rap. Watch very closely as Nancy explains why she thinks that could actually happen.

Prince Jackson steps into public spotlight
By Alan Duke, CNN
November 10, 2011 -- Updated 1535 GMT (2335 HKT)

Los Angeles (CNN) -- Michael Jackson's oldest son, Prince, takes another step into the public eye this week with his first commercial endorsement.
Prince Jackson, 14, revealed in an interview that while he can't sing or dance like his father, he wants to be a television and movie actor. He has previously said he wanted to be a director.

While some Jackson fans may object, saying Prince Jackson is too young
to be involved in an endorsement, the lawyer for grandmother Katherine Jackson said steps are being taken to "make sure that going forward everything with the children is done by the book."

Prince isn't doing it for the money, but as a favor for his uncles, the four surviving original members of the Jackson 5 group that featured his father.

None of the marketing materials for the jackets includes Prince's name or image, but he did join Jackie, Marlon and Tito Jackson recently when they autographed 1,000 replicas of Michael Jackson's Beat it and Thriller leather jackets. Jermaine Jackson also signed the jackets, which go on sale Thursday through Amazon.com.

The J5 Collection, which is based on the styles of the Jackson 5, will introduce Michael Jackson's style "to a new generation," Prince Jackson told CNN.
Jermaine Jackson: Murray is a liar

He might wear them to "dress up parties," he said. "It's not casual, but it's nice to wear to events."
Prince Jackson, who's about 5-foot-10, is showing signs of a young man who is ready to make his own mark on the world.

Jackson's three children -- Prince, Paris and Blanket -- were famously sheltered from public view until their father's death on June 25th, 2009. It wasn't until the pop icon's memorial service that the world got a close look at them.

Paris, now 13, spoke for her brothers then, saying her "daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine."
Prince Jackson spoke up on the Grammys stage in February 2010 when he accepted his father's lifetime achievement award.

"To all his songs, his message was simple, love," then-12-year-old Prince said. "We will continue to spread his message and help the world."
Since then, Prince talked briefly to Oprah Winfrey when she visited his home last year to interview grandparents Joe and Katherine Jackson.
Prince also walked a red carpet and answered a few questions from reporters during a recent trip to Germany to accept an award to his father.
He smiled broadly and appeared confident on stage at the tribute show to his father in Wales last month when he introduced Beyonce's song.

Prince said he's hoping to travel with Jackie, Tito and Marlon Jackson when they perform shows in Japan next month. The plan is to have Prince introduce his uncles on stage, Marlon Jackson said.

Perry Sanders, the lawyer for Katherine Jackson, said Prince has indicated he is determined to make his own money, even though he will inherit many millions from his father's estate.
Taking care to make the right decisions about what deals to accept and what to reject is crucial to protecting his brand as the eldest son of the King of Pop, he said.

His uncles asked Prince to support the "Thriller" and "Beat it" jacket sales, a line that is authorized by the executors of the Michael Jackson estate.
"These limited quantity collector's items are exact replicas of the iconic originals and were created by the original designer of the jackets," according to a news release.

Michael Jackson debuted the red Beat it and red and black Thrillerjackets, designed by Marc Laurent, in 1983. The Jackson brothers signed 500 of each jacket, which will sell for $2,350.

Traurig, wenn man als 50/60jährige auf die Hilfe eines 14 jährigen Teenagers bauen muss, um die nötige Aufmerksamkeit für das eigene Anliegen/Business zu bekommen.
Die Geschichte wiederholt sich....leider.

[Biggi25]

Kann nicht bitte mal einer ne deutsche Zusammenfassung machen?

ÜS

Los Angeles (CNN) --


Michael Jacksons ältester Sohn, Prince, macht diese Woche einen weitern Schritt in die Öffentlichkeit,mit seinem ersten Werbevertrag.
Prince Jackson, 14, offenbarte in einem IV, da er nicht singen oder tanzen könne wie sein Vater, wolle er ein TV u. Filmschauspieler werden.

Während einige Jackson Fans der Meinung sind, Prince sei noch zu jung für einen solchen Vertrag, hat der Anwalt von Katherine Jackson angemerkt, es werde alles so gehändelt, dass die Kinder keinen Schaden nehmen würden.
Prince macht es nicht wegen des Geldes, sondern um seinen Onkeln einen Gefallen zu tun.

Keiner der Marketingartikel beinhalte Prince's Name oder Image, aber er war mit Jackie, Marlon u. Tito Jackson, als diese kürzlich 1000 Nachbildungen von Michaels Beat It u. Thriller Jacken signierten, welche ab Donnerstag über Amazon.com zu erwerben sind. Preis 2.350 $

Die J5-Kollektion, die auf dem Style der J5 basiert, wird MJ's Style der neuen Generation näher bringen, so Prince zu CNN.
Prince hofft, dass er mit Jackie, Tito u. Marlon reisen kann, wenn sie nächsten Monat in Japan auftreten.
Es ist geplant, Prince mit in die Auftritte einzubeziehen, sagte Marlon Jackson.

Perry Sanders, KJs Anwalt, sagte, Prince habe den Wunsch geäußert sein eigenes Geld zu verdienen, auch wenn er Millionen von seinem Vater erbt.
Man müsse nur aufpassen, dass man die richtigen Entscheidungen treffe...welche Deals man abschließt u. welche man besser ablehnt. Es sei wichtig für den Schutz seiner Marke, als der Sohn des KOP .

Prince's Onkels haben ihn gebeten, den Verkauf/die Werbung für die Kollektion zu unterstützen.
Die Jacken-Kollektion wurde vom MJ Estate genehmigt.

Stolzer Preis. Wer kauft sowas? Und dann noch mit diesen Signaturen?
Was haben die J5 mit Beat It u. Thriller zu tun?

Gute Frage und weil sie selbst nichts auf die Reihe kriegen, muß man eben Prince vor den Karren spannen, ...aber er macht das ja um seinen Onkels einen Gefallen zu tun....

[Dreamerdancer]

Wenn es Jacken oder ähnliches aus der Jackson5/jackson Ära sein würden, könnte ich noch verstehen, daß die Brüder diese signieren aber Beat it und Thriller Jacken und dann mit dem Preis?? Oh Gott, die Geschichte fängt an sich zu wiederholen, nur daß es nicht Michael ist den Teile der Familie für irgendetwas einspannen wollen, geht ja nicht mehr, sondern seinen Sohn Prince und der tut es natürlich, ist ja schließlich seine Familie, hoffentlich geht das nicht ins Auge, bis jetzt wurden Michaels Kinder doch recht vorsichtig von der Medienmeute behandelt, das kann sich ganz schnell ändern.Die Jackson Brüder sollten es so halten wie vor dem 25.06. 09 und in den letzten 20 oder mehr Jahren, nicht in Erscheinung treten, sie hatten ihre Zeit und nu is gut, aber bitte nicht immer mit oder in Michaels Namen auf der Bühne. Wenn sie was neues Eigenes bringen, ok, kann ich akzeptieren, wenn sie sich selbst als Künstler präsentieren, so wie es Janet die ganzen Jahre getan hat, auch in Ordnung, aber ich befürchte, das werden sie nicht mehr tun. Tito ist der Einzige, der noch als Solokünstler eigenes präsentiert.Diese Entwicklung jetzt gefällt mir so gar nicht, aber mich fragt ja keiner

Wie war das noch mal? Michael braucht seine Brüder nicht, aber seine Brüder brauchen Michael. Prince braucht seine Onkel nicht, aber seine Onkel brauchen........

[Sandra68]

Ich lese hier im Forum viel mehr als dass ich schreibe, ABER: Mich kotzt diese ganze Bande nur noch an Was hat JACKSON5 mit Beat it oder Thriller zu tun??? Gebe Dreamerdancer voll Recht, man oh man.....

[p.anh]

Und das Kind (Prince) hat kein Kindheit mehr.Er ist erst nur 14.
Was die Onkels betrifft:Money ,money,money....

Tito, Marlon and Jackie Jackson We Got Screwed Over Thriller Jackets

T.,M. u. J. Jackson wurden mit Thriller Jacken beschissen

Three of Michael Jackson's brothers -- Marlon, Jackie, and Tito (left to right) -- have filed a lawsuit against a guy who they say duped them into signing 1,000 replicas of the famous Michael Jackson "Thriller" and "Beat It" jackets.

Die 3 Brüder haben Klage gegen den Typen eingereicht, der sie 1000 MJ Jacken signieren ließ. Jeder von ihnen sollte für seine Dienste 100.000 $ erhalten u. zwar sofort nach dem die Tinte auf den Jackets getrocknet war. Steeve Bohot u. seine Partner haben aber die Zahlungsvereinbarung kurzerhand geändert u. sagten, man werde bezahlen sobald die Jacken an Amazon ausgeliefert seien, was sich aber etwas verzögert habe.
Die Brüder meinen, dass sei eine Lüge.


According to a new lawsuit -- obtained by TMZ -- the 3 bros were promised $100,000 each for their signatures on replicas of the iconic, red, leather jackets that MJ wore in his "Thriller" and "Beat It" videos.

The brothers claim Steeve Bohbot and the other defendants were supposed to pay as soon as the ink was dry, but they allegedly changed the deal and said they would pay when the jackets were delivered to Amazon.com for sale.

According to the suit, Bohbot claimed there was a problem with delivery to Amazon, but the brothers say it was just a lie.

Bohbot's lawyer had no comment.
