Did Jermaine accept that award on Michael's behalf of for himself? Sorry Jermaine and Latoya are really starting to annoy me. They jump at any opportunity to get some attention and publicity. The way Jermaine accepted the award at the AMA's seemed like he was having a moment for himself and what's up with brining his kids there on stage with their fucked up names. Sorry just needed to let that out....Anyone else hav any thoughts on this?? [Edited 11/23/09 11:50am] | |

yeah i guess i can see why MJ didn't really feel that close to him. it's just very sad to me and i actually like jermaine as an artist but i'm just skeptical about his behavior. | |

I felt the same when i saw it. I mean, why couldn't Janet accept the awards, as she was already there? Every time there is an award for Michael Jackson, Jermaine is there, like he represents Michael...its annoying | |

exactly. i also was hoping janet would have accpeted this time. it just would have been more appropriate. maybe she wanted to and jermaine was like "hell no bitch, youre already performing in the show. it's my time to get some shine"! | |

I didn't see the AMAs, but the general question is something I've wondered about as well. It's like nails on a chalkboard anytime I hear Jermaine say, "...Yeah, I was Michael's backbone; his mouthpiece." It didn't seem like MJ was at a loss for either.
I'd never claim certainty, but it feels like Jermaine is trying to convince both the public and himself of a past as functional as he wishes it were. [Edited 11/23/09 13:32pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Truth of the matter is Michael and Jermaine were close
especially during the early years. Michael was even upset like Jermaine when Daddy Joe chose to sever ties with Motown. Michael felt like Jermaine was his right hand on stage. Did you see the reception Mike gave Jermaine when he joined the brothers on stage for the first time in a decade at Motown 25. Michael's relationship may have been strained at times with some of his siblings later on but let's not act like this is unusual for normal families. In a nutshell,who's to say that Jermaine wasn't there in support of Janet and Michael. Don't laugh at my funk

I asked my wife the same question myself last night. He gets on my freakin nerves. I was cursing my tv out as I watched him again, make something related to Michael about him. He desires that limelight sooooo bad its obvious. DAMN, work N*****. The family need to designate another family member to represent them because Jermaine just rubs people the wrong way. Its not about you dude.
I digress. | |

When Michael's career shot lightyears beyond anything Jermaine could ever hope to do, I think he got jealous and that's when he started pulling shit like "Word to the Badd" During the Victory tour, watching the fans get up to use the bathroom during his solo set is what probably pushed him over the edge. .

In a nutshell,who's to say that Jermaine wasn't there in support of Janet and Michael. Michael may have been closest to Jermaine during the J5 years but in later years MJ seem closest to Randy out of all his brothers. Randy seem to be the only brother who toured with him during his solo tours, although he didn't appear on stage with him. And wasn't Randy staying with MJ at MJ place at the time of his death? I just feel Jermaine feels his out of his brother shadow now, although I do believe he was sadden by the death of his brother. He has decided he will be the main spoke man for the Jackson family and keep MJ legacy alive, but at the same time gloriying his time in the limelight. | |

Jermaine is the one who loves Michael, but is also very envious of him. While the other brothers appreciate their own lives and their family's legacy, Jermaine's the one who wishes he could be MJ, even though he never had the skill or looks to be anything like him (which clearly has always frustrated him). I think every large family like the Jacksons, with one child growing to be the most successful star, has a secretly jealous sibling like Jermaine who does strange actions but tries to cover it up with "love."

IMO, he's just like Papa Joe, a slick, triflin' hustla, with one get-rich-quick scheme after another. He wanted to turn Neverland into another Graceland. | |
