Quote from: "the arabian nights"just imagine if they hadnt attended that meal, when asked when was the last time you saw him would have been embarrassingYes... interesting they did have that get together at that point and that Michael decided to attend.

They all seem to do their own things unless they are all brought together. I doubt the family hated him, if that was the case they wouldn't have been by his side during the trial. Maybe he was embarrassed or needed his space. I'm sure it probably was hard on all of them, especially Michael of course. But when your sibling or child is going through something like that of course it takes it's toll on you too. They all probably kept their distance for their own reasons but I do believe it went both ways. Also, Janet not doing an album with her brother isn't a big deal, she always has said she wants to be her own person, her own artist. She doesn't want to be compared to Michael or be in his shadow. She likes to have her own identity, sound & career. While it would have been nice for them to do an album, I don't judge her for not wanting to do that. & yes she went on Leno but ONLY to promote her movie. Not to be his friend or to prove a point that she didn't care what he said about her brother, she has a movie to promote, if she doesn't do those shows she's INVITED to, it will be bad for the promotion of her movie. I am not talking to my older brother right now, he's doing his own thing & so am I but I love him to death & I'd do anything for him, we just aren't as close as we used to be now that we've grown up. It happens sometimes, it doesn't mean that the love isn't still there.

It happens sometimes, it doesn't mean that the love isn't still there.i second that. my brother went off to college and we barely spoke for 5 years. now he's back and we hang out again. every one of the jacksons has their own thing going on. janet does music AND movies, her plate is probably really full. and plus, those interviews where she talks about not speaking with him were a couple of years ago. they could have "reunited," if you will, by now. about jay, she didn't treat him like he was her best friend for life. she treated him politely but that's where it ended. some people know how to take the high road.
I've been thinking lately about the Jacksons relationship with MJ. I personally don't think MJ was that close to his family in recent years. Even in the early 90's during his interview with Oprah he expressed that he loved his family but he wish he could see them more. He's like I understand though because we're a show business family. MJ would not have been such a lonely person if he was constantly around his family. I think he and Janet were close at one point but in the 2000's drifted apart. All the family had his back during the trial but after the trial he moved to Bahrain for a few years so I doubt if he even saw his family. I think Janet was caught up with her life and the whole Jermaine Depree relationship. I think the person MJ remained close to was Randy because out of all his brothers and sisters I remember he thanked Randy exclusively for being there for him. I think his mom has always been there for him too. I think MJ maybe separated himself from them too. Sometimes I even wonder if he did fake his death would he even tell all his family? I don't care how busy you get you should always make time for you're family even if it's just a phone call or a letter to let them know you care. I always wondered too why he was always on the road by himself when he did tours. If I were his sibling I would have offered to go on the road with him because he was so lonely and he couldn't go anywhere without being mobbed by fans.
