Revealed: Randy and Jermaine Jackson's plot to get MJ's $$$$

Exclusive
0719_randy_jackson_jermaine_jackson_article
Randy and Jermaine Jackson are trying to get at Michael Jackson's money, by hatching a sinister plot involving Katherine Jackson ... so claim sources connected with the Michael Jackson Estate.

Randy, Jermaine, Janet, Tito and Rebbie Jackson all signed a letter, demanding that the Executors of the MJ Estate step down, claiming the executors are failing so badly, the stress caused Katherine to suffer a stroke.

Sources connected with the Estate are now lashing back, telling TMZ they believe Randy and Jermaine (they are not including the others) are strapped for cash and know when Katherine dies there is no way they can get their hands on a penny of MJ's fortune -- that's because all of the money goes to charity and in trust for Michael's 3 kids.

Michael Jackson Still The King Of Pop Three Years After Death

Michael Jackson's legacy lives on
MJ's continued influence on pop culture has proved that the King of Pop will forever remain in the hearts of music fans.

Music fans the world over can mark June 25, 2009 as one of those eerie days that force them to recall exactly what they were doing in the moments before they heard tragic news. Michael Jackson died that day, at the age of 50, and the world was not ready to see him go.

No entertainer could ever fill the void that MJ left behind, but his memory has not faded in the three years that he's been gone. In the past 12 months alone, we've seen Jackson-inspired productions, heard narratives from celebrities who continually cite him as a key influence, and this summer his face will be plastered on Pepsi cans to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his classic album Bad.
 Keep reading to see a few examples from the past year that prove that Jackson has remained forever in the heart of pop culture. Enjoy one of his greatest song of all time Thriller below:

Dad wanted us to have a childhood: Paris Jackson

Michael Jackson's children
The 14-year-old daughter of the late Michael Jackson King of Pop understands why he covered their faces when they appeared in public although she wasn't aware of why at the tie.

She told Oprah Winfrey on 'Oprah's Next Chapter': "I was really confused. I didn't get why I was wearing a mask. I understand it now. My dad wanted us to be covered because he wanted us to have a childhood."

She added that the decision enabled her and younger brothers Prince and Blanket to go places other children could, like restaurants. Pairis shared: "Chuck E. Cheese was one of our most favorite places to go."Michael's only daughter with ex-wife Deborah Rowe opens up to Oprah in an interview on airing on Sunday in the United States.

She speaks about life with her father, who died aged 50 at his home in Los Angeles due to an overdose of the powerful anesthesia propofol. His physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, was sentenced to four years in prison after he was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for administering the drug.
She said about his passing: "It never gets any easier."

Michael Jackson Estate sued in $1 Billion Bizzare lawsuit

Michael Jackson owes a convicted criminal $1 BILLION for exploiting personal details about her life in his music -- this according to a bizarre and, dare we say, bogus lawsuit.

Kimberly Griggs filed the case in San Diego -- claiming she and Jackson had an intimate relationship beginning in 1979, which she says he chronicled in his albums "Off the Wall," "Thriller," "Bad," "Dangerous," and his greatest hits album ... "Number Ones."

Griggs -- who spent years in prison for burglary and robbery -- claims she was pissed that Michael exposed her personal secrets in his tunes, so to make things nice he promised to give her the rights to the songs.

She says she was stunned when MJ died and she was completely left out of his estate. According to the handwritten lawsuit, Griggs wants $1 billion in damages. Calls to MJ's Estate weren't returned, but we're guessing their response begins with the letters b and s. TMZ

A concert to honour the greatest entertainer of all times - Michael Jackson

Honouring their father: Prince Michael, Blanket and Paris took to the stage in iconic clothing at the Michael Forever Tribute Concert at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.
Last night the world watched several entertainers dishing out their best songs in honour of the king of pop music the late Michael Jackson. Although the concert was marred by family disagreements, the audience had a splendid time. Michael's three children took to the stage wearing Michael Jackson's iconic jackets to the amusement of the audience.
Celebrating: Marlon Jackson, Fearne Cotton, Jackie Jackson and Tito Jackson pose for a portrait backstage at the concert
The trio joined family and the showbiz elite last night to celebrate Jacko's life with a memorial gig in the Welsh capital - but the singer's siblings have been divided as to whether or not to attend. Tito, Marlon, Jackie and La Toya all performed at the concert, while Jermaine, Randy and Janet were notably missing. The absentees believed that the show was 'inappropriate and ill-timed' due to the current trial of Conrad Murray, the doctor charged with involuntary manslaughter over Jacko's death. 

Jermaine and Randy both said in a statement, they said: 'We feel that the most important tribute we can give to our brother at this time is to seek justice in his name.' While Marlon said he respected their decision, adding: 'Each one of us grieves differently. We want to celebrate the positive side of his life, the positive things that he did.'

In your opinion, was it okay to stage this concert when the Jackson trial is still ongoing? Let me have your opinions below.
