All the money he spent on his Crisco 'do could've been used for child support. And I always thought Michael was the wacky one in that family. Jermajesty????

He bought a $160,000 Ferrari last month, but Jermaine Jackson is having trouble making his $3,000-a-month child support payments for sons Jermajesty, 13, and Jaafar, 17, according to court documents.

He's so behind — to the tally of $12,000, minus the $85 he's managed to fork over — that the L.A. County Child Support Services Department has filed documents requesting that a judge hold Jackson, 58, in contempt. The potential penalty for that is 20 days at the L.A. County Jail.

Jackson has struggled in the past to provide for the boys, two of his eight children with three women. (The mom in this case is Alejandra Jackson, who also has two children with Jackson's brother Randy. Oh, yes.).

Jermaine, who's had his wages garnished as a result, ponied up $80,000 in back support in March 2011, according to TMZ, and coughed up another $33,000 in delinquent payments this past May.

Ummm, ummm, ummm. What a pity! And with his albums being remastered on CD and everything?

Jermaine has been perorming regular with his broths the past years and a half.

True,but look at all those years he wasted,doing nothing.For him,the hit records stopped in the early 90s but that doesn't mean he had to stop touring as a solo artist.It's called working for a living.

Yeah,that's quite a scandal,isn't it? From what I remember,Randy was married(?) to that lady when Jermaine began an affair with her.This is some straight up Jerry Springer stuff like something you would see on one of the daytime soap operas,lol

So, Jermaine is working regularly he has enough disposable income to purchase a Ferrari yet, he can't cut a check once a month for the support of his children? Soul's correct, throw his tired self in the poke, he's playing games.

SoulAlive said:

and what the hell is he doing having eight children when it's obvious he can't afford them? I guess he's never heard of condoms? lol

A vasectomy would have done him some good too.

Speaking of "Jermaine Jackson" and "jail" in the same sentence:

Excuse me but THIS^ was needed in this thread!

Wow! I have never seen this video and wish I could go back in time and unsee it. Yeah 20 days in jail is not long enough for being a deadbeat parasite, who continuously sucks off his brothers corpse. I swear the wrong Jackson died. Fuck em.

*sigh*

^^yep,I've been saying this for years: dude has a good catalog.There is no reason why he can't be out there on the road,doing concerts regularly.Charlie Wilson,Howard Hewitt,Ernie Isley,Freddie Jackson,etc....these guys are out there,performing their hits and making a living.I can even name artists who are older than Jermaine and yet,they're still out there,doing their thing.Jermaine seems lazy.If you're gonna make all these kids,you'd better be a man and find a way to support them!

Jermaine's career was sabotaged from 1991 to 2009

the rest of the brother's careers were sabotaged during the same time span

and Rebbie's career was snuffed out from 1997 to 2009

Charlie Wilson's career was not sabotaged, neither was Howard Hewitts, neither was Ernie Isley, neither was Freddie Jacksons

that's the albatross standing in the room.....

that's what makes it appear the brothers have been "lazy" all these years

Sabotaged by who?

yeah,I heard those crazy rumors about Michael doing everything in his power to prevent them from getting radio airplay,but I don't believe that stuff.

There was *nothing* stopping them from touring.

Scorp said:

Charlie Wilson's career was not sabotaged

At one point in the 90s,Charlie hit rock bottom.He was a homeless drug addict.

If he can get himself together,recover from all that and get his career back on track,there is NO reason why Jermaine couldn't be out there,performing shows and paying his bills,too.

i dont think jermaine's child support issues are a result of him not having money,i think he really feel he shouldnt have to pay the trifling woman who lived free at hayvenhurst over 20 years.he should have fought for custody of his kids,they speak highly of him.i dont see how buying the car is a big issue when he traded in a rolls royce, so he was already driving a car most people cant afford and bought another one most of us cant afford.

Well, it takes two to tango.

....and when you make your bed, lie in it. These kids didn't ask to come into this world, regardless of how trifling the situation is.

Whether his career was sabotage or not there is no excuse about not paying child support, especially if he can put down 160,000 on a car. I don't want him to go to jail but he should do the right thing by his kids.

oh, it's not even a question his career was sabotaged, right down to the J and the 5........

the rest of the brothers were sabotaged too......Rebbie goat railroaded too

during the summer of 1989, early summer of 89...I visit my local record store

2300 Jackson Street was still receiving major airplay on the radio, celebrating J5'S 25th year of existence...

I went to the record store and within minutes, I saw the most mindboggling event I've ever seen as a record buyer

a store employeed pulled every single copy of 2300 Jackson STreet from the record shelves, and when I say every copy, I mean every copy....that shelf was bare....all u saw was space....

I'm stunned.....and was like what the hell is going on....that did not even look right, knew that was not a coincidence

so I asked the store employeed why did she do it, why did she pulled only that CD of the Jacksons from the shelves and not another other CD, and she said she received instructions from her store supervisor to pull, who also received instructions to have the record pulled

but wait it gets even more mindboggling, it gets even more shady

not only was the record pulled from the record store, but radio stopped playing songs from the record, now the album wasn't even receiving airplay....same goes for Randy's debut album with his group Randy and the Gypsies.......

aint no way in the world that was a coincidence........somebody made that happen

Some of these Jackson family defenders comments are so ridiculous its hilarious.

*************************************************************************

How in the hell does one find nothing wrong with the fact that JERMAINE's ex-wife was living in HIS BROTHERS house rent free? Thats NOT Jermaine's brother responsibility. Am I missing something? Jermaine's brother wasnt the one that laid down and had kids with Jermaines ex-wife. So why the hell is Jermaines brother obligated to take care of his kids and ex-wife??? Thats NOT his brother's responsbility.

*****************************************************

I'll tell you what Jermaine's problem is. Jermaine IS TRIFLIN.... period. There is no need for 10 pages of discussion on this topic. This GROWN ASS man, (almost damn near 60) only gave 85 dollars for child support but he is willing to put down thousands of dollars for a damn car? WTF? Where are his priorities as a father? He KNOWS he has to pay child support. Jermaine has two minor boys, what is that teaching them about responbility and taking care of your priorities as a father? What example is being set? Jermaine is lazy and triflin. Why is it that Jackie can take care of his kids, Marlon can take care of his kids, Tito can take care of his kids, BUT Jermaine can't? That's pathetic and I don't feel sorry for him one bit

**************************************************************************

I dont care what anyone says, there is NO excuse to not take care of your number one resposbility as a parent: YOUR KIDS but we already know Jermaines track record. He is going to go whining to Katherine once again, and ONCE again his brother is going to have to pay for HIS kids. I just dont understand how you can be that inconsiderate to not only your kids but your brother but I guess if you dont give a damn about your OWN kids then you damn sure wouldnt about your brother...

if 'jermaine's brother' provided for them thats his choice not yours or anybody else. mj was a grown ass man and could do as he was pleased with his money. why is mj celebrated for the financial support he gave to so many strangers but his fans have a problem with him doing the same for his own flesh and blood? regardless how trifling his brother and the babymomma is mj provided for his nieces and nephews because he loved them and didnt want them to go without,the same way i do for my siblings kids if they needed something and i had it. and please stop with the jacksons defenders bs,thats so immature.its not about defending jermaine,i just tend to look at things logically and not jump to emotional conclusions because i dont like a person.this man lives in a nice home,drives nice cars,travels all over the world but cant afford 3,000 a month? it just sounds unreasonable to me and imo he's not paying because he dont want to not because he cant.jermaine's kids always speak highly of him,they are always with him,they are always well groomed so somebody is supporting them be it jermaine,grandma or uncle mike...but it aint alejandra.

That house was for Katherine and the money that he gave to Katherine was for Katherine. Katherine used Michael to a certain degree to also provide for the rest of the family. In other words, Jermaine did not walk up to Michael and say, "Hey Mike can my ex wife live in your house"... no thats not how it went down but regardless of how it went down, its poor on Jermaines part to feel that he is entitled to his brothers money and that his brother is the one that should be supporting his family financially. Thats a problem. Jermaine is a grown ass man and he should take responsibility of his OWN family and not be relying on brothers money. Its nothing wrong with taking care of family and helping family members out but that is not the situation here. This is a man that has taken the advantage of a family member for years and only views that member as a piggy bank. So no I dont feel sorry for someone who feels they are entitled to someone else's money just because they are to lazy to get up off their triflin ass to provide for their own family.

You say its not about defending Jermaine but that is all I see from some here lol Alot of ass kissing and not enough of the truth. You think that Jermaine should not take no responsibility of his own actions which I feel is ridiculous. Whether Jermaine likes his ex-wife or not, he still is obligated by law to financially provide for his children... period. NOBODY else should be financially providing for HIS kids...not Katherine, not MJ, nobody. This man only gave 85 dollars to put up for child support and spent thousands on a car? And you have the audacity to insist that Jermaine cant pay child support lol Jermaine can pay, he's just triflin.

CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT MJ DID'T PAY HIS BROTHERS THEIR FAIR SHARE OF ROYALTIES FROM J5 RECORD SALES AND AIRPLAY. MJ CONTROLS THE J5 CATALOG AND THE JACKSONS CATALOG. MJ TRIED TO SUE UNIVERSAL FOE BACK MONEY THAT WASN'T PAID SINCE TWO THOUSAND. THE LAWSUIT WAS DISMISSED. IN OTHER WORDS MJ DID NOT DO A GOOD JOB OF COLLECTING THEIR MONEY TO LIVE LIKE KINGS.

Wait a minute. I thought that Motown owns the rights to the J5 catalogue. So how did MJ have control of it. The Jackson catalogue is questionable.
