TV sensation, Oprah Winfrey is preparing a special dedicated to Michael Jackson and word has it that she has scored interviews with those who were closest to him such as ex-wife Lisa Marie Presley, his mother Katherine Jackson and even the singer's eldest children, Prince and Paris, to talk about the late singer.
Now, his own brother, Randy Jackson, has clearly expressed his total opposition against this interview and took his Twitter account to express his issues with Oprah: "I can never forget when she had the show on pedophilia during the jury deliberation process in my brother's Santa Maria case... That was no coincidence," he revealed.
Randy states Oprah was not fair with his brother during the trial and how his brother would not approve of her being close to his children. He wrote: "I know how Oprah feels about my brother and family. I also know that he would not have wanted this... She is the last person on earth he (Michael) would want around his children."
Jackson's brother added that had he known beforehand about this interview, he would have advised his parents against it.
In my humble opinion, the guy has a point. Oprah wasn't fair to Michael at all, specially considering how he gave her the interview of a lifetime by agreeing to let her be the first person to interview him inside his Neverland ranch, providing her with one of the highlights of her career.She never gave him the presumption of innocence during the trial, instead, she distanced herself from him and made it seem as if she was more doubtful than sure about his persona.
Now, after he's gone, she has been quick to remark the wonderful musical figure he was just to get a ratings boost. Besides, aren't MJ's children supposed to be living a quiet and normal life? Leave those kids alone!
