Exactly one Jackson says something that doesn't make sense to what the other said and then the rest of us are looking at them like "WHAT" it is just lies 🤣
Of course they'd she's lying...they dont want that bad press. This is so brave to bring something like this up to the whole world. That would also explain why Michael saw it as normal to sleep with little boys...that was his norm with his own dad.
She shure does..... this was before she got bought off,threatened and told worse things would hapen to other family members if she didnt stop/ the Whole Freakin Family is beyound off. Im glad Rebbie got out ,when she did,shes one of thee most 'together' Jacksons of the whole lot. the shit with MJ goes back to the mid-late '70's Havenhurst days.
She's literally talking about growing up with an incredibly abusive childhood and the comments are about weighing in on whether they think she's attractive or not. Typical.
LaToya is by far the strongest member of the Jackson Family. She acknowledged the problem and tried to find ways to heal. Has anyone seen that reality TV show where she persuaded Joseph to let her call him father? Wow, that was a punch to the emotions. That calm voice... I could imagine the children developed it to seem less threatening to their father to avoid beatings... as a defense mechanism. So, sad what was done to those kids.
This would explain Michael's very soft spoken voice and demeanor when not performing ... shyness, quiet, fear, embarrassment just as Latoya said about herself.
Well I believe they were all mind sick .... she is saying abusive father etc then check her Instagram she writes happy fathers day with her dad in pic 😂😂😂😂🤢🤢🤢🤢💩💩💩💩💩👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
In here she just mentioned MJ throwing a shoe at his father. MJ said the same thing in a recorded phone convo. I believe this women. Shes not crazy, she honest.
Funny how this one woman was the person who had the courage to first come out with the truth, and most every other member of the family denied it all. LaToya was the single person who wanted to heal and not hide in all of that. Props to her!
I love the Jackson children. They are all so talented and wise. My heart breaks for them, that they had to go through such abuse. I wish Latoya would have stopped the surgeries at this point. She is stunning.
i have always believed that laToya was truthful about the sexual abuse, Why involve Rebbie if she was lying. I doubt that Rebbie ever came forward to deny the accusations.
Maybe because Michael is worth so much and the media always side with richer people first, as they have powerful friends and could possibly affect the network etc.
You think she was telling the "truth" here, But later she denied the things she said against Michael Jackson and they reconciled, and she started to tell another "truth" that it was her husband force her to say so. In 2005 she defended MJ After MJ's death, she said MJ was murdered, and there were also people said that "she's revealing the truth". And now just because of the documentary, all the other things she claimed are automatically ignored and the "crazy one" has suddenly become the "truth teller". Really, what should you believe? Btw, Michael didn't have any friends, you could say his powerful, but at the same time he was manipulated by other power(what LaToya thinks the reason of the death of MJ is).
@@ciaob5427 it what context are we talking? I would of done what laytoya did if I was like her in nature. I'm glad she was brave enough to run away but it was selfish too do so only when she was faced to do pronos.
LaToya was saying only the truth. You can see it in her eyes, her voice, everything. She was so brave, she was so bold in a very good way there. God bless her for speaking up.
Scary thing is she has always been truthful. She said her dad beat her for her report card , and she also said this in 2016. I always think Latoya was being 100% honest
counsellor 01433 Yeah, i definitely believed her. Also you can see it in her facial expressions, and her stories of the past abuse! Or before these interviews, she hired one hell of an acting coach!😅😂 But seriously, abuse is never OK, and poor Latoya had to live with that crazy shit, as a youngster!
Michael clearly agreed with her and read the book, his secret phone calls say such. She totally turned against Michael once this book fame went to her managers head. Michael and La Toya were closest, living together at home until they were in their 30s. Then La Toya betrayed him due to Jack Gordon.
Harden Thicke Her career was ruined She couldn't get work . Then her husband had her singing in strip clubs. The he tryed to make her do porn movies. I bet she's glad he is dead.
It's funny how they tried to paint Latoya as the black sheep. Seems she's always been the only honest one out of a family that puts on airs and graces in public
See how you all are easily manipulated, you think she was telling the "truth" here, But later she denied the things she said against Michael Jackson and they reconciled, and she started to tell another "truth" that it was her husband force her to say so. In 2005 she defended MJ After MJ's death, she said MJ was murdered, and there were also people said that "she's revealing the truth". And now just because of the documentary, all the other things she claimed are automatically ignored and the "crazy one" has suddenly become the "truth teller". Really, what should you believe?
Puds Deroiste the black sheep is usually the one who is brave enough to call bullshit and speak the truth. I do think sexual abuse went on but now we all know her husband at the time forced her to agree that she believed the allegations about Michael. Those, I do not believe at all. But the father - there was definitely something about him. It’s quite possible, I think.
@@LooneyCartoonMan I agree, she apologized to her family doing the years, I believe Joe hit hem , but sexual abuse sister ReBe and Janet and Latoya she lie, back in the 80s and 90s Latoya was lying, and again she said her no good ex-husband told her to say negative things about her family he abuse Latoya, It was told ReBe left home she married a Jehovah witness brother, Latoya had a lot of problems when she married to her ex husband, she said out of her mouth joe was strict and tough yes hit Mike and the boys but doing the years she Said Joe never touched her sexual . When I first meet Latoya back in the 70s at a J5 concert she was a Jehovah witness , and extremely shy very conservative , very beautiful and kind I was 14 years old 1974 back in the day it was easy to approach the family this is way before mike became bigger than life and call king of pop , Latoya nose was much wider less make up and natural beautiful these are old interviews of her , she is still Nice, but whatever her ex husband did to her mind she has never been the same, go back to Jehovah Latoya.i happen to be a Jehovah witness, and I been to several J5 concerts back in the early 70s yes the family had problems but back in the day we black folks thought they were a beautiful respectful family, but Latoya said in a interview view she lie about some things and she was under the influence of drugs. She is nice.
Maybe...although she seeems to be saying the father was into little girls...but who knows. Anyway, whatever Michael might have experienced as a child doesn't give him any right to become an abuser himself.
I applaud her for her honesty. Now the connection with the Debarge family makes sense. They were abused and sought comfort and empathy with each other because they shared similar experiences.
LaToya is presenting a very important message in a valid way. Sorry that people comment about her appearance to the point of dismissing the valuable information she is projecting, & that LaToya didn't gain notoriety for spreading such important messages.
What value is information that has to be bought. Her career crumbled with this man. She did not see any member of het family from 88 till 97. So she sells her parents in a book the year before then in 93 sells her brother asking up to 500,000. She did another best seller selling her ex.
I know she's telling the truth. I feel it in my bones and gut. I feel like if you have been abused or know those who have been abused well, you'd know she is telling the truth.
Agree. I know her husband forced her to say those awful things about Mike which weren’t true but I 100% believe Joe sexually abused those kids. I come from a crazy, abusive, dysfunctional family just like this. This was like listening to my own family and experiences. I also suspect some sort of incest among the kids because they were never allowed around other kids growing up, before becoming famous that is. Latoya came off lucid, articulate, and credible
I agree with you. Those of us who suffered abuse know what’s up. I’m amazed by how brave she is though. I hope more of us can be courageous like this and expose the dysfunctions. It’s necessary.
No wonder LaToya and the rest of the family had a lot of surgery... I suspect that it was a way to cope with their abusive childhood and to become a different person. I find LaToya, in this interview, to be articulate, lucid, and compelling.
Interesting point. My dad was abusive, and I have always said, that if I had the money, I would get cosmetic surgery on my nose, to change its shape. I have my father's nose! When I was growing up, i wanted to be the complete opposite to him in every way! ....never did get the money for that nose job though.
Yea I think he gave them extreme body issues and created this toxic space where they tease each other and hated the way they looked. I also think they hated him so much they did not want to look like him either
This! And also growing up black in that era in the lime light. Body image issues can come into play at that adolescent age with sm pressure... its a shame
Abuse always takes place behind closed doors, it did in our home. We were always told what happened in our home stayed in our home. My parents had an image to protect. I believe her.
Yes that so called Jehovah witness went against every thing she was taught not to do also she allowed that monster she married abuse her children. She loved the fame and money hope her and Joe burn in hell.
Angel Eyes33 Look up Latoyas interview with Barbara Walters and Latoya admits it was all lies and that her husband Jack Gordon made her tell those lies. So there you have it dummies
I believe her. Her story rings true, and she was even more let down by a Mom who didn't protect her. Her Father was evil, pure and simple. I am horrified and sorry these children had to grow up in such a home.
@@mjmedia09returns are you sure about that Michael Jackson was unable to have children because he was sterile, it has been alleged. The late pop icon - who has three children, Prince Michael I, 12, Paris, 11, and seven-year-old Prince Michael II, who is also known as 'Blanket' - reportedly confided in his physician Dr. Arnold Klein that he was left infertile from vicious beatings handed out by his father Joe Jackson when he was younger. Arnold's former lover Paul Gohranson alleges Joe repeatedly kicked his son in the testicles - ruining his chances of having a baby naturally. Paul also claims dermatologist Arnold, who was a close friend of the 'Thriller' singer, donated his sperm to Michael - who repeatedly claimed his dad physically abused him throughout his childhood - so he could have a family. He told RadarOnline: "He told Dr. Klein that he thinks that's where the damage was done because he said his testicle was never the same again. "He said it was enlarged and was always painful. So that's why he said Arnold donated his sperm because he didn't have the ability to even donate sperm, he wasn't producing it anymore." Paul is adamant Arnold is the biological father of Prince Michael I and Paris. Michael's ex-wife Debbie Rowe, who worked for Arnold, is the biological mother of the two kids. Paul also claims Debbie had no idea her former employer had donated his sperm, but eventually discovered the truth during her marriage to Michael. He added: "According to Arnold, Michael and Debbie had come to a business agreement, the marriage was supposed to be the cover to have the children. Not sure what to believe
latoya was almost considered a national joke at that time, but if you actually LISTEN to her, you can't say she's stupid.. of course we all know she walked a lot of things back to get back into the family's good graces, but the fact that pretty much everything she'd said (much darker secrets than these) has all been corroborated in one way or another over 30 years, i tend to believe early 90s latoya was keeping it real..
Idk why people think she's ugly. I think LaToya is beautiful. Even in recent years. You can see the strong family resemblance between her and Michael. And also Janet. Beautiful family.
I wouldn’t say she’s “ugly”, but she definitely went overboard with pointless cosmetic surgery that she didn’t need. She was naturally beautiful without it, all of the Jacksons were, yet they still are.
IndigoMoon7 La toya looked beautiful beautiful she and MJ went crazy on over the norm doing their face with plastic surgery, Janet played it smart, she did a little and stoped. LaToya looks horrible.
Latoya has such a beautiful graceful aura and energy to her ❤ She inspires me to speak more calmly and thoughtfully and carry myself more gracefully ❤️🫶
My god how can a woman stand by a man who gets into bed with his daughters and beat everyone! Disgusting! Why wasn't that man jailed! The mother put in prison too!
dawn pratt Look up Latoyas interview with Barbara Walters and Latoya admits it was all lies and that her husband Jack Gordon made her tell those lies. So there you have it dummies
Jacque Rene Her husband made her tell those lies? You are such a fucktard to believe that she was "made" to tell lies. It seriously sounds like hogwash so hard it's incredible you still sit there and believe it.
You are correct. In all of these years, she has never recanted about Joe sexually abusing her and Rebbie. What I do know is her father was on her reality show years later. So I don’t know what to think.
This is a woman that said that her husband beat her and then turn around and say her husband didn't beat her this is a woman that has already wanted to be rich and famous as well she did some s*** in her life so please don't make her out to be a hero
@@lilmuscles1935 no, this is a woman who was abused and was targeted by another psychopath. You get to attract this type if you come from an abusive family and usually you feel so very lost in this situations that you just return to the abuse you are most familiar with. Have you even studied abusive families? I have. Just because she was forced to write that book, does not mean it was not real what she wrote. He could simply beat her to tell the truth about her childhood. Also, once you were raised like that it is difficult to become a normal person, you get scarred for life even if you happen to meet the right people, which does not happen too often, especially when you're famous. She certainly has her flaws, but the pain in her eyes is real. Stop shaming the survivors, stop believing the picture which is painted by psychos. These people seem and act normal, until you learn what is behind the mask of normality. I prey you never meet a functional psychopath.
In order to understand Latoya back then, you have to know the history with Jack Gordon. As a MJ researcher, I have the history as it happened and covers Jack Gordon abusing and drugging Latoya. See this video as proof ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fgoOfa8kVZk.html
There is a finality in her talking about this. Generally it happens when abuse victims are done hiding it, they're done staying silent and are ready to speak frankly and to the point. There is no grandstanding or gaslighting. It's the truth as she knows it and she was ready to say it. Having gone through that process recently in the past couple years, at first it's so difficult. Especially that first time saying it out loud to someone because you don't know if it's a good idea to reveal it and if the person you're telling is someone you can trust. My Mom was the first one I told about almost everything and I'm so grateful that she heard me and let me know that I was heard and believed me. From then on, for me with trauma therapy, it gets a bit easier but not completely. I'm still a work in progress with that. 30+ years of keeping my mouth shut, yeah it's gonna take a bit but LaToya is so brave to come out and reveal her truth. It takes a strength to stand in your convictions even though your parents are wanting you to remain silent. It almost makes me wonder if that's why Michael was being thrown under the bus because it was his father who did these horrific things. People thought Michael would be capable of that too which is such bulls**t. Like what, the sins of the father and all that? SMH Nope. ✋😒
All the questions he asked were fucked up. He only cared about the views didn't care that the questions were so cruel. Like read the book don't make her describe if she was whipped and shit like even the woman was like she says in the book a belt... I don't like him.
I think he was just trying to clarify if they would get beat for no damn reason or if he just got mad at them. I'm sure everybody knows and believe they got their asses bear unfairly by Joe
This is so sad. But also a breakthrough for LaToya to be able to begin healing and help others heal. I work at a Psychiatric facility for girls ages 5-17. You would be surprised how many kids have gone through this. It's so very damaging. Thank you so much for your bravery LaToya. May God's blessing be with you and i pray healing for you and the rest of your family. So sorry for the loss of your brother also. May God comfort you.
Coming from a very dysfunctional family myself, I can see her points so clearly. La Toya is so brave to have worked through this abuse and moved past the horror she endured, in order to help other people with her story. Abusive families always want to find a scape goat, but especially now it just goes to show that speaking out was the best thing she could've done!
This makes my stomach hurt. And she's right, some family's are expected to be silent on abuse within the family. This is so disturbing, but I believe her 100 percent. When I was a teenager, my own uncle said to me with the look of lust on face, "If you weren't my niece." ..... (He didn't finish the sentence, but I knew what he was insinuating). To make matters worse, my father was sitting right there & didn't even say a word to my uncle. My father had just reconnected with me after not being in my life since I was about 2. I thank God I wasn't raised by my father. I really think my uncle would've tried to do something sexual to me. Every time I went around my uncle, all I sensed from him was the look of lust in his eyes looking at me so inappropriate rubbing his lips together.😝 I never said anything to my father because if on the first day I meet my uncle, & he says something inappropriate to me in the presence of my father, yet my father doesn't say anything & does nothing but glance at my uncle, that sent a bigger message. Please tell when family members or other people say inappropriate things to you, look at, or touch you inappropriately. Don't ever be silent!! This kind of stuff can ruin people's spirits & lives.
ajohnsonvl Your father should have slapped his face! If anyone ever looked sideways at my kid, leave alone made an inappropriate comment to her, I would never stand for it! That’s what a parent is supposed to do, protect their child! Also chops to Latoya for speaking up about her scumbag father! He is the reason that family is so dysfunctional & also the Mother! WHY do these women stay with cheapsters like this? I blame them as much as the men!
Very lucid comment. You describe a perfect example what it can be like. The Jackson family were all raised to accept all type of abuse like if they were in a cult. And some praze and deny their ordeal - even themselves - because the abuser had dreams of grandness and wanted to reach fame and gain admiration trough his kids. He put them all in showbiss. Forcing them to perform. Threatening them. That says it all, doesn't it? They should all speak out and scream YES! !! La Toya was honest!
After watching this alot of things are starting to make sense. LaToya was a very honest person from the start. She's always wanted the truth to be exposed so she could heal and so it could help others. I'm starting to think that her father Joseph was a Narcissistic Psychopath because of the stories his children are speaking about him Latoya's mother was with a Narcassist, she was groomed by him and was a victim of domestic abuse, who till this day is still so stuck in it that she is not allowing the truth of the family to be let out.
ash sparkle he most definitely was a malignant narcissist borderline sociopath!!! There’s always a truth teller within this but sadly there not believed and often become the scapegoat blamed for making up stories or lying ect hence why this man continued to get away with it, the Jackson family will continue to defend his name and there childhood through fear conditioning manipulation brainwashing denial ect they might not even be aware that anything was wrong as it was there normality!!! I speak from experience sadly and I’m the truth teller hence why I’m alone but I’m ok with it because I’m living in truth and authenticity I’m not living an illusion x
Claire Osborne Defend? Even MJ spoke about this pain. No one is defending, but their pain & struggles doesn’t give anyone the right to insult them over it either or use it to rumour monger or bolster false accusations
If this is indeed true. Everyone was quiet about it and stayed because the Boys were earning money for the entire family and none of them wanted to be ostracized for fear of being kicked out and left with no money to live off of. And Joe Jackson being the Head of the Family most likely threatened them that if they talked about what was really going on, then he would banish them.
Thank you so much beyond words for speaking out LaToya. When mothers allow their children to be beat by their husband, it really upsets me more than I could ever utter. I am so deeply sorry for the unspeakable abuse you and Michael and your other siblings went through. I don't have the words. It is so dead wrong and so dead horrible. Liars and cover-up-ers are some of the most twisted and unintegritiful and dangerous persons on earth. How dare your father do his savaging on everybody and how dare your mother or any mother allow it.
Latoya was always honest she was never crazy and very brave to talk about this shes so calm and soft spoken just like michael and janet they all deserved sm better💔💔
This is such a tragic interview. I did not know Joe Jackson sexually abused the girls..how horrible, they had to endure that. I believe Latoya..is telling the truth. All the children were beaten everyday. So sad..Micheal had to endure all that pain and sorrow. ☹
yea the abuse wasnt false but its been said that her extremely abusive husband made her say certain things about her family, I guess keep her all to himself. he was also in the mob and used her to snuggle drugs
One of the bravest women of her generation, she seems more natural sincere and with the right body language here, then when she retracted her statements after MJ died. She will get her justice one day, she deserve it.
lolol. Right? Talking about, "After Michael did OFF THE WALL (and/or) THRILLER, Joseph was still abusive and beating him". MICHAEL WAS A GROWN MAN BY THEN!!!! Come on LaToya !!!!
Denial is such a powerful thing in dysfunctional families. The most horrific things occurred in my family, but it was so normalized, and it was so denied afterwards too. Even after years of therapy, I still fade back to denial at times myself. Then I have to remind myself of all the plain hard facts, without all my excuses for them, in order to again understand.
They're not your real soul family, they're purposes is to serve you to awaken you. You must end each other's soul contract by forgiving and letting go or you'll end up replaying these roles in the next life until the karma ends, next life you could be the mother/ father instead. Your 3d physical family will thank you for it as they will be free from karma. You'll find your soul family as they guide you to a journey of unconditional love 🙏
@@leeyoo-mi4542 the illiterates always reply with ridiculous statements instead of stating WHY they have disagreed with someone...they don't agree with him and they don't have their own facts or reason to back them up ....cos they never read or do some research on their own
I love that all the Jacksons have this very tender and calm voices, there all beautiful and I feel bad for them that they had to go thru the abuse at home, and no childhood... they all look alike, and so gentle...
Latoya was so beautiful and I love her soft voice her and micheal were literally just like each other lol. And I definitely believed she was telling the truth and this is why she didn’t go far because she spoke the truth but she’s definitely not lying
