Why did Janet lie about where she was?

[EternalBliss]

why would you even say 'maybe she just didnt care about MJ' wth,that just boiled me! that was jii ignorant.Of course she cares :| ..people forget lies..duh or maybe she just had to change it.But its not cuz she dont care..

It's definitely strange that  her story keeps changing....If I can remember where i was, I KNOW she should remember...I was at work when my coworker who had just clocked out and left called and told us that it's all over the news that MJ had passed....i remember my heart sinking so fast....

I just found back a video with an interview with Tyler Perry.
He tells Janet was on the movieset when the news came in that Michael was rushed to the hospital.

Well we all saw the interview with Janet where she told she was in New York at her house when she heard the news.

This is really crazy.
Why did she lie about where she was?
I can't imagine Tyler Perry lied about it.

Because when you lie it's hard to remember who you told what to and what you told them.

I remember where I was when the news of Princess Di broke.  When my grandmother died.  How could she make a mistake about her brother who she was once close to?  Because she's covering someone or something.  It's obvious they all are.  You can tell from their hesitation, the slightest hint of trepidation when they are talking (especially Marlon, Tito). Jermain is better at acting.  So is LaToya.   Joe Jackson is a bit confused about the whole thing.

Didn't we discuss lying on the post about Why Did Michael Lie? Everybody lies and Janet is no respect of persons. Just think about it for moment. Does it sound better to say that you were in your NY apartment and just felt something strange but just didn't know what rather than say you were on a movie set somewhere? I am sure she does care a great deal about MJ. But let's face it MJ had banned his family away from him in his last days before he exited. He didn't want much to do with them beyond the little he did. I just believe that since 2005 MJ was coming into knowing his true self. MJ and Janet were close in the early years. It's normal for siblings to grow apart as they get older. Janet was doing on her thing. After two failed marriages she resolved to shacking with Jermaine Dupree. I am not so sure that set well with MJ. Afterall, their family's faith base was Jehovah Witness. Keep the Faith!

Why is she the one lying?She said she was home when she heard the news of him being in the hospital, not she heard that  he died.
