This just in from the L.A. Times....I'm sorry to report that I don't know how this information fits in with the Hoax...any thoughts?Janet Jackson says brothers verbally abused herLos Angeles — Pop singer Janet Jackson says her big brother Michael Jackson used to tease her as a youngster about her bottom, while their other siblings called her a "horse," "pig" and "cow."In an interview with NBC correspondent Meredith Vieira, on the promotional trail for her memoir, Jackson said the verbal abuse made her insecure about her looks."I would literally bang my head up against the wall because I didn't feel attractive," she said. "There was a lot of pain in my life. But I did. I felt very unattractive."She used to laugh at the barnyard taunts, and said Michael's comments about her bottom were probably affectionate. But rather than confront him about his hurtful words, she simply internalized the pain.Jackson, 44, relates her childhood trauma in her book "True You: A Journey to Finding and Loving Yourself," which will be published on Feb. 15.As with her siblings, Jackson was beaten by her father who forced her to call him by his first name, Joseph. Still she escaped relatively lightly, recalling that she was struck with a belt just once."I know my father loves me," she said. "He just has a very, very different way of showing it."Michael Jackson, almost eight years older than Janet, once tearfully recalled that his father would "tear you up" with a belt or some other convenient cord, and "would throw you up against the wall."Of her brother, whom she last saw about six weeks before he died in 2009, Jackson said she embarked on the grieving process long after everyone else in the family."I don't know if it was trying to shield the pain, or just trying to hold it all together because I saw that everyone else around me was falling apart. And, never -- never taking that moment to really grieve. Really grieve, even at the service [in July 2009]."But she recently allowed herself to watch his videos and listen to his music during a nightlong session in Paris."And, there was moments when I-- I felt the cry, and moments that made me laugh. And, it was good for me. I needed it," she said.Jackson's NBC interview will air on Friday and next Monday on "Today," and Sunday Feb 13 on "Dateline."You are not allowed to view links.

So, she wrote a book and will be promoted then.
Interesting. What do you guys think?
another book , ...and not understand your grief, I say, she made a film, giving interviews, singing at the Video Music Awards, ... and after the mourning :scratch:
It is interesting that Dateline is airing this interview of Janet's the same day as the Grammy's?
Quote from: "Gema"So, she wrote a book and will be promoted then.Another book, interesting.....Thanks for posting!
She said, "Theres more to come. Theres more to come." Wonder what she was referring to?
everyone is writing a book :study: not enough hours in the day to keep up :scratch:
i saw this somewhere else earlier and someone else mentioned it just as it causght my eye. the layout here looks eerily like the lisa /ophra interview. so you think so?

This IS eerie! WTH? Does anyone know how to put up a side by side comparison between the two interviews?Thanks!
Quote from: "loveratheart4mj"She said, "Theres more to come. Theres more to come." Wonder what she was referring to?She couldn't say "The Best is Yet To Come" and that's why she said "There is More to Come" :lol: The show is not over yet, there is more to come for sure.
What do they mean "opened up" about Michael's death? It's almost been 2 years, and she's had many interviews before this! She's already "opened up" about it. :scratch: I also agree about the "There's more to come" thing
Oh, a new opening up. I thought at first this was the other interview she gave. To Oprah, or the Robin Roberts one...This makes me really think he is not dead. I doubt she would reveal how he "verbally abused" her were he really gone. Btw- REALLY? He was teasing her, NOT verbally abusing her. I work with people being verbally abused (and more)- and this is not verbal abuse. It is sibling teasing - not nice, but people recover from that. Yes, another book indeed.
