( while white people are diverse too its just not the same as black people, thats why its almost impossible for all these white men to be the father if debbies the mother. you don't get dominant genes out of a pool of recessive genes. 2 blue eyed parents will not have a brown eyed child that is the case 99% of the time) most people who defend mj's kids arent doing it cause their crazy. their doing it cause its insulting and because they know its not impossible. their are "full" black people with 2 black parents who look whiter than michaels kids. i could sit here and write all day about people i've met and the people in my own family. my great aunt( my grandmothers sister) has the weirdest skin tone ever, its like a mixture of pink and brown and she can't tan to save her life, she just burns and not only that she has Blue eyes. same brown skinned mother and father as all her siblings and she is the only one who looks like that, I'm sure there are italian and portugese people who tan darker than my aunt, but that doesnt mean my aunt isnt black. besides wasn't it proven that italians have african ancestry anyway? | |

People usually assume she's from Spain, Italy, or thereabouts. Anyway, I think people are making too big a deal about what features someone must have to be white, black, mixed. Races aren't clear cut, there's a lot of similarities between and in the end we're not too different. The kids are what they are and whatever race they want to associate with will be fine. | |

Michael Jackson 'will be top earning celebrity next year
Michael Jackson is set to be the world's top earning celebrity brand next year, making up to £150 million ($246 million US) from beyond the grave, even more than Ronaldo and the Beckhams. The predictions come from the top 1,000 licensing and merchandising experts across Europe taking part in the trade event Brand Licensing in London at the end of this month. They include owners of celebrity brands and licences as well as those from retail, manufacturing, promotion and advertising industries. Ciarán Coyle, managing director, The Beanstalk Group, said: "The Michael Jackson estate could earn an estimated £100 to £150m in royalties from licensing in 2010. "His image and legacy is licensed on anything from coins and clothes, to coffee table books and singing stuffed animals. "To put that into context, Elvis' estate was worth £30m last year and only a fraction of this was from licensing deals. "The reason his estate will do so well as a licensing property is because Jackson had both fame and an emotional connection with potential consumers." http://www.telegraph.co.u...-year.html | |

I'm NOT convinced that these kids are NOT Michael's for the reasons that cdcgold has stated. I'm black and I know from my own family experiences that with American blacks, who have been mixed with white, latino, asian, native American, and everything else, that anything is possible when it comes to genetics. One has to take into account the entire family, not just one individual to have any basis to make a judgment on parentage based on looks. There are people in my family who have 2 dark skinned parents and the kids are light skinned. To someone on the outside this may look strange, but it's common in my family. On my mother's side, they are a mixture of mostly black, some german, and some native american. When you have kids by someone who has a mixed backgroud (whether they look it or not) you will come out with all kinds of interesting looking offspring. When it comes to Michael Jackson, take a look at Latoya. Assume Michael looked like Latoya and had kids by a white woman with little or no mixed heritage. Then it's not so hard to believe that Prince, Paris, and Blanket are his. Joe's eyes are light colored; so are Debbie's; hence it's not out of the question for Paris to have light colored eyes. Another thing I've noticed about the Jackson family. Some of the brothers have kids by light skinned black women, latino, or other non-white races. These kids are light skinned with somewhat straight or curly hair. Given that Michael had kids by a white women, it's entirely possible and likely that the kids have straight hair. None of MJ's kids look completely white - their skin is very dark compared to white people. To me, Blanket looks just like Michael did when he was that age - the shape of his eyes and face are MJ's 100%. Prince's face is shaped a little like MJ's when he was a kid too. Paris takes after Debbie. So, those of us who still believe that MJ is the biological of his kids are not just in denial. | |

There were two gurls at my work last nite...i work as a lounge attendant in the bathroom. I thought they were mexican but they were both half white and black. white textured hair and light skin. funny how people think biracial ppl should look a certain way....kinda racist isn't it? With me its not just about that. They just dont look like Michael Jackson That means nothing. I have a daughter who looks nothing like me. I'm her mother. My mother looks nothing like her mother, neither does my uncle, my mother's brother. | |
