Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, Cable, Rumors
Despite a report claiming Michael Jackson’s three children would soon become reality stars, the trio’s legal guardian says that simply isn’t so.
In the upcoming A&E series, The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty, the cameras will follow the surviving Jackson 5 members and will also include 19 other relatives with the same last name. Even though Janet and her mother are both expected to be involved, Katherine tells TMZ that the formerly masked Prince Michael, Paris and Blanket will not.

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, Specials, Gossip, News
AEG Live has been negotiating with several networks over the cost of their Michael Jackson rehearsal footage, tape which will be turned into a major motion picture later this year. AEG was hoping to sell some of the footage to be used for the creation of TV special that would whip viewing audiences into a film frenzy, but their $20 million price tag proved to be a little too high.

Janet Jackson Makes Appearance at BET Awards
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Music, Cable, Video
Tonight at the 2009 BET Awards, a very special guest helped pay tribute to the King of Pop. For the first time since Michael Jackson’s death, his younger sister stepped out in public to address his fans.
“My entire family wanted to be here tonight, but it was just too painful so they elected me to speak with all of you. I’m going to keep it very short, but I’d just like to say that to you - Michael is an icon. To us, Michael is family, and he will forever live in all of our hearts,” Janet stated. “On behalf of my family and myself, thank you for all your love. Thank you for all your support. We miss him so much.”

Janet Jackson Seeks Her Replacement on MTV
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Drama, Kids, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Specials, MTV, American Idol, Dancing With The Stars, Rock Star, So You Think You Can Dance, Talent, Announcements, Gossip, News
Reality TV producers over at MTV have apparently lured pop icon Janet Jackson into developing yet another American Idol-esque series.
“It’s really about finding who’s the next Janet Jackson or Justin Timberlake or Usher,” executive producer David Broome explains; however, I am a bit unsure as to why we would need to find the next Janet, Justin, or Usher when all three are still rather successful artists today. Perhaps a hint at Jackson’s fall from her pop star throne?
Either way you slice it, the upcoming MTV show sounds just like Making the Band to me.
Fearing blatant comparisons to its predecessors, Boome added, “We’ll find it from a pool of people who you wouldn’t typically find it from. We’ll go to YMCAs, church groups, local community centers and try to cast the show.”
Wow! A reality show with a heart? I doubt it.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Late Night, Music, NBC, Saturday Night Live, News
An untimely illness has forced Janet Jackson to cancel an upcoming appearance on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live. (It was reported that the singer made a trip to the emergency room earlier this week due to a case of the flu.)
Luckily for Lorne Michaels, the show was able to able to book someone with an equally high profile: Mariah Carey.
The gig is actually a win-win situation for the two parties. Not only does the diva have an upcoming album to promote (E=MC2 comes out on April 15), the program has been trying to get the artist back on their stage for over 10 years.
