The Jacksons are the American Family of Music, hands down, don't care about other opinions. And they're BLACK and DANG PROUD. And YES, that includes people with skin disorders. So yeah, go Jacksons.
I will NEVER forget watching this when it aired. It was the first real public appearance by MJ after then crap 1993 allegations. I was in tears because of sooooo much love for him. :-) His soul must have been just overwhelmed by the love that was shown that night (as well as before and after but to see it on tv...melts me every time).
@@soldecle Ahmet Ertugan President of Atlantic Records,immortalized in the movie Ray said there's only one brand of music that sell worldwide,Black American music.
@@soldecle I'm Congolese but the lady said what she said! How are you gonna come and correct a person's taste?! To me the best singers are soyth Africans but black americans are up there too.
All of them are extremely talented, but I look to MJ as the genius! I hope I don't offend anyone, but without him I don't think they would have been what they became! It was through him! MJ was beyond words! Michael Jackson is one of the most influential cultural figures of the 20th Century and changed the history of music and entertainment! He was, and is still, the most iconic performer of all time! His genius included, music, dance, short films, producer, choreography, philanthropy and even fashion! He was a phenomenon!
To those who only came for Michael, some people are fans of the WHOLE group and the sisters. And it's not right to discount Jermaine. He was the other star of the group and had a solo career that anyone could be proud of. He is also along with Michael the best singer in the family.
Jackie has a good voice, Randy, Janet too. Michael just was able to push more with his, everyone else aside from Janet usually sung in a very low and soft voice.
Well Michael said Jermaine was as good as him but he didn't have as much confidence in himself. I use to be on the Jermaine and Joe hater train but I stopped that mess. If not for Joe and his brothers we probably would've never known who Michael Jackson was.
@@electrofunk5442 man that song castles of sand is a whole otherworldly song I thought it was Maxwell singing lol. Jermaine Jackson is definitely underrated let's not forget he gave us Switch and then the Debarge family. He even helped Whitney Houston .
+100knowell doubt it, it aired in 1994...remember late 1993 the allegations took place. MJ was most likely too busy to be dealing with this. I think his family did but I believe MJ said he wasn't going to take part if ET wasn't honored. :-)
During the entire show, I kept on wondering what Michael was doing at that moment. If he was backstage just watching and enjoying the show, if he even had arrived at the venue yet, whether he couldn't wait to get on stage or whether he was dreading it, maybe...
The whole Jackson family members are all Legends!! They will always be the most well known family of all time. So glad Mr. Jackson new his family was going to be very famous someday & had that drive in him to not give up. The Jackson Five,The Jackson’s Michael Jackson the King of Pop Janet Jackson the Queen of Pop,Latoya Jackson & now 3T just so much talent!! ❤️😍💕
I grew up watching this family since I was in middle school. They took the world by storm and soared beyond belief! I claimed them as my family . But Michael stole my heart. I claimed him as my son. Followed them during their entire career and I still follow them . I hurt for the family due to Michael's death. I still grieve with and for the family.
@Dalila Watts - I don't know about all that... What I enjoy about Quincy Jones is all the joy that he brought around the world through his music and production talents.
The things Quincy Jones said weren’t true. Quincy Jones was struggling with addiction & there was something else going on with his health. He had false memories, that’s why he said those things about Michael, the Beatles, Marlon Brando & Richard Pryor. He put out an apology on Twitter a few days later.
I think this was the first time he made a public appearance again after all that 1993 Chandler bullshit. Good to see him back on his feet looking happy and healthy again! ❤️ Love ya, Mike!
A shame they don't put Square One on every major platform. 93 was bullshit, I was ten when that happened and I remember thinking, ' why are they lying on him!?'
Queen Janet really slayed the entire house down with her hit "Alright". That woman sure can dance then and now! I love her so much. Best performance of the night.
@@CalypsoDarlingre you serious, janet been dancing from the womb just like her brother why do you think that Michael Jackson's never had a problem with his baby sister and it is now the year 2023 and Janet Jackson has actually broke records there's a lot of people out here that actually thinks she's the better dancer she brings more heat to the stage than Michael dancing is magic moves with musicality so wonderful only the spotlight of the stage but Janet brings that heat Janet is a big scar on her own everybody knows this
@@toniapearson4695well she ain't a better dancer than MJ. MJ is a whole pioneer that surpassed and continues to surpass his siblings. 😂😂 Sit this one down
1goldbaby,,,,, and so is Reebie. I just think she is stunning and I give her my vote for prettiest girl. Katherine was very pretty as a young lady. To date she is STILL pretty. I think Reebie looks so much like her mom. Truth be told, they are ALL VERY GOOD LOOKING. Men are handsome like Papa JOE. Girls are pretty like Ms. Katherine. Not a bad face in the bunch!!!
@@eleshia12181991 he was handsome tho with his features especially his eyes yes Ms.Katherine was pretty with her features both of them are 2nd and third generation mix.They made nice looking children All had a lil cosmetic help thru the years . Rebbie has always been the prettiest of the girls.Latoya was pretty also until all the extra cosmetic work... her nose was really the only thing that needed help.
That performance was a live recreation of Janet's video "alright". Her and Michael were both inspired by the legendary singer and dancer Cab Calloway who actually was in Janet's "Alright" video.
@TheGooners11 There are only a few family members with wealth. The estate of MJ, and Janet. The rest of the Jackson's have their own careers and ventures and support themselves. They don't live off of Michael's money. Katherine gets a stipend from the MJ estate each month for the remainder of her life, cause those were michaels wishes , and each of the 3 MJ children get an allowance. Katherine is still guardian over Blanket who is still a minor. Michael's money belongs to his three children. The rest of the family is on their own, as they should be.

Family is the most beautiful and important thing one could ever ask for I thank GOD for mine and the best part is working through problems together MAY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS THE ENTIRE JACKSON FAMILY! I have always admired the way they love one another your family is my motivation my wife and I have been married 13 years and have 5 children from 11 months 13 years of age keep on pushing! My favorite family!
I never heard about this show before but I’m glad it popped up! The Jacksons are still one of America’s Royal Family! They were blessed to all look so good. Unfortunately MJ went too far with surgeries when he didn’t need it. He was SO HANDSOME back in the day. I miss him so much! RIP MJ! Berry Gordy still looks the same even today. I just saw a show with him on a 2017 award show for Diana Ross. THANKS for posting!
They gave dancers of all races a chance to dance. Wow! His father was very humble in this. 1 kid to 9 wow Joe had to work hard to get this family on right track discipline and yes his love. ❤️ RIP me joe Jackson (Many walk away or leave their wives he stayed and the rest is history!!
What a blast from the past. Indeed these were times when performers truly worked at their craft. Mr & Mrs Jackson truly gave us a Royal family of entertainment with their children. It would be great to see their grandchildren carry on the legacy. Especially since their influence has been recreated by almost every other pop artist today.
My God Celine Dion Is Probably 1 Of The Greatest Artists With The Most Sweetest Voice & Best Singing Ability The World Has Ever Seen Her Vocals Is Golden 😍❤️
The Jackson's were the greatest and most talented group of young men that there ever was. Those old days back in Gary Indiana were fun also whenever they would be able to play. We had double cola which I will never forget and little bags of penny candy, relay races and a bunch of other children to play with. 😊 Keep up the great work 👍
@@sipnog3528 The whole behind the scenes production was a fiasco. It was organized by Jermaine and really just meant as a public relations stunt to help Michael's image because of the child sex abuse allegations. On top of that Jermaine used the show to plug his new album. The show lost money and Jermaine and his Dad ended up getting sued. Janet was at the top of her career at the time on a sold out world tour. She was pressured into appearing by her Mother. She was seen backstage ripping Jermaine a new one for putting on such a terrible show and then she high-tailed it out of there.
@@hutch1197 well jermaine did well for Michael then. Totally sweetest thing because it proved to Michael how much people loved him. Barry even told him he believed in him as a child still did as a man, and he said that infront of the world. If Janet had ego issues, too bad cause she has been influenced by Michael in her acts and there was no way she was going to be the family superstar even if she was at her peak. Infact I'm now disgusted with her not wanting to be there with her family to support the person she said she loved and was proud to be sister of when mj received those awards. This was one time Michael needed his family, it doesnt matter what petty issues were there between the siblings, fact is they ARE siblings. If the aim of the show was to show people that Mj was still king 🤴, then well done to jermaine's love for his brother cause it did show that MJ was the undispited loved king 🤴.
@@lil18thletterking77 It was reported in the news back in 1995. She and Jermaine were seen arguing back state. She was back at her hotel immediately after her performance. You can also Google numerous articles about what a financial disaster this show was and all the lawsuits against the family, with the exception of Janet, who had no financial involvement whatsoever.
I agree, that man loved his family. I use to hate on him but when I had my son it was like the blinders fell off and I was like 'well ill be damned,smh'
While all the other Jacksons were celebrating the life of everyone else, Jermaine wrote the song "Celebrate Life" and performed it (with TIto) to honor his parents. Big up! 1:02:50 it starts.
The Dynasty of the Jackson Family is outstanding. Celebration of the family as a whole should be done. They desire our respect and admiration as a whole. Black families are seen mostly as moms with children struggling. Thank you for a different viewpoint, not perfect, but people.Thank you for this video. This is my first time seeing it.
The Father had a dream .The Jackson Family. He opened doors not just for his children but for others as well .There will never be another Michael Jackson King of pop forever 😪 ❤💯 forever missed an 😍 loved Beautiful family 👪 ❤ ♥
oh my god I rember seeing this when it came on I was so happy looking at this I ove the Jacksons (: lol my mom didn't like that I love them but who cares there still the best.
because she thanks everything the meadia says about them is true and she thanks there all not cool people and I shouldn't be likeing Michael she thanks hes a nasty person.
It's thinks not thanks & I'm sorry that the media brainwashed your mom into thinking about bullshit rumors about them hopefully she'll come to her senses & realizes that they're not true
The most beloved and blessed family the Jackson's so much love goes to them they are the legendary family of all time I'll never forget miss Michael they are so deserving of everything good what they all gave to us bless Katherine and Joe and more family to come for generations to cone
FUN FACTS: This special was executive produced by Jermaine. It was really a vehicle to help bolster the family's image after being battered by LaToya's book and Michael's sex abuse accusations. Janet agreed to perform at the beginning and then bailed right after the performance. She wanted no part of this, as she was at the height of her success in the middle of the "Janet" tour. She was spotted backstage laying in to Jermaine for putting together such a cheesy fiasco, and especially since he used the show (as well as Janet and Michael's fame) to plug his new song/album. Michael was pressured to do it by Katherine in order to help Jermaine get better ratings. The show had trouble selling tickets and had to either discount them or give them away. Jermaine and the family (except Michael and Janet) were sued for millions in unpaid bills.
hutch yes! All of this is true.: I love the Jackson’s but this was pretty bad. There is a clip of people who paid so much money for this that were upset.. thank you for sharing this! All true...
The jacksons a legendary family that gave us all their love theu there music it will never grow old it will be around forever my heart is feeled with joy and a smile on my face when i heear any of their songs j5 michael janet 3T i wish michaels kids and jaafar the best i am happy i was apart of this growing up with the jacksons
