MAY 25
| It was a rare public appearance for reclusive Michael Jackson tonight (SAT), in the middle of 18,000 Ultimate Fighting Championship fans at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
It was an all-star turnout for the UFC showdowns, but all the attention
though was focused on Michael. With a new single coming out mid-June
(Jackson Source
can not confirm this) Michael is
supposedly expected to be seen out and about more often at upcoming public
events.

MAY 22
| The
sleepy village of Appledore urned into a Hollywood frenzy after
the Jacksons came to town. Excited villagers camped outside the
five-bedroom home, rented by the family as Tito and Jackie moved
in, giving the family presents including local produce and
scumpy cider. The family seem to be settling in nicely. Tito and
brother Jackie were the first to move in, with Jackie's son
Siggy - also known as rap
act DealZ. They were followed by their mother Katherine, 78,
Tito's girlfriend Claudia Lynx and his son Taj.
L-R: Taj,
Claudia, Tito, Jackie, Dealz in Devon.
Thanks to Lila for the image.
The
arrival of the family members has sparked rumours that the
family is looking to establish a more permanent base in the
Devon countryside. Welcoming villagers have even arranged a
series of parties to celebrate the arrival of the pop family
including visits to a local fish and chip shop, a hospice and
even a nightclub. There are also plans for a celebratory welcome
bash on June 8, which the family will be attending. Tickets to
the party sold out without hours of going on sale.
The Jacksons are being filmed
for a television documentary during their stay. Jackie and Siggy
were the centre of attention as they left the house to explore
their new surroundings yesterday morning, strolling along the
fishing quay, where they ate
ice creams and met local residents.

Neyo has been rumored to be
working with Michael Jackson on his eagerly awaited new album,
here's what the young star had to say on what it was like
working with the King Of Pop:
"Uh, nothing that would get me in trouble. He was very
adamant about nobody knowing what's going on. No explanations,
not even song titles. But we are working together and it's
coming along nicely. He's being very selective." On what it
was like to get the call from the King of Pop:
"I thought they were kidding! I didn't believe it. I don't
really do the starstruck thing, but when I met him and stood in
front of the man, I was shaking like a leaf."

In a recent
interview talking about his appearance in the new Wolverine
film, American singer/song writer Will.I.Am spoke briefly about
working on the next Michael Jackson album. Here's what he had to
say: "Have you enjoyed the filming?
It just doesn't seem real for some reason. Maybe it's because
I'm sleepy.
Even working with Michael Jackson seemed real, even though it
was, you know, surreal, but the Wolverine thing seems like a big
dream.
When will we get to hear the songs you recorded with Michael?
The new stuff? Um, I don't know... Can you switch that tape
recorder off..."

Taj's dog Rascal died. He left the
following message at his blog:
I lost my best friend yesterday
You see, ever since I got her, Rascal has always been more than
a pet to me. My mom surprised me with her when I was turning 20,
and I could always count on my little Rascal to be there for me
when things got really bad. She was like a little cuddly teddy
bear. Small enough and easy going enough to take or sneak in
anywhere. She was the best dog I have ever had or could ever ask
for.
When she died yesterday, a huge part of my heart died with her.
I really miss my Rascal so much. This will definitely be my last
pet for awhile. Although she lasted a long time and had a great
life(15 years), It's just too hard when they leave you. Have any
of you lost pets as well?
You can comment at www.tajjackson.com.
We wish Taj lots of strenght and light with the loss of his best
friend. R.I.P. Rascal...

inludes a message about the album Identity being now available both on

Mom's birthday
Although it is April 1st and officialy April Fools Day, today also marks my mom's birthday. She would have been 53 this year. I came across this footage while working on our 3t documentary, "Living with the Legacy". It shows just a small glimpse of what our relationship with our mom was like... I really miss her.
Please
note that the video of 3T and their mother was recorded
February 19, 1994. That is just several months before she
died and the brothers released their debut album Brotherhood.
