Jacked from a random message board
Not quite tea, but I thought I share anyway so here it goes...my husband's cousin's longtime gf's neice graduated from Harvard this past week, among the class of 2012 was Stevanna Jackson, daughter of Randy Jackson. Stevanna and gf's neice are both members of Winthrop House.
Anyway, she told me the Patriach of the family, Joe Jackson was the only member of Stevanna's father family in attendance. Yes, you read that correctly...Randy Jackson was not at his daughter's college graduation! Nor was Katherine Jackson.
It is my understanding that Stevanna is probably the first Jackson grandchild to graduate from college, since all the other are in the music business or trying to get in the business. Anyway, say what you want about Joe Jackson, but accordingly to the info I got, he was beaming with pride and joy taking pictures of Stevanna.
I understand if Katherine Jackson's health prevented her from attending such an important event in the life of one of her grandchildren, but what was Randy's deal?! Is he sick too? What about Aunt Janet? Too busy walking red carpets to attend your neice's Harvard graduation? I still got love for Janet and Mother Katherine, but, I was shocked that Joe was the only Jackson said to be there.

Joe gets a bad rap rightfully so but its different to be in someone's presence and see other sides of them. The only thing we hear about Joe is that he beat his kids and cheated on his wife but no one is ever just one dimensional.
That family is fucked up anyway
they're not as bad as the Houstons
Man it must be agony being in that family. Nobody cares about the Jackson grand kids. I always wondered why Janet never helped any of them with any gigs, or let any dance backup with her. Back in the 80's I used to fantasize about being in that family. Its amazing how the family is so disfunctional as opposed to what they seemed to be in the 80's.
well he is a good grandpa.. you go joe..as long as he came grandma did not have to show but daddy should have been there..
I believe she probably stood up for herself in some situation & they turned on her. Or she might be more independent & not the obedient controled family member shes ordered to be. Just an opinion.
Good for her, I would leave that family in the dust!
They only care about one thing.. money and fame. Even Michael cound't bear his own family for longer than a few minutes. Congrats to the recent graduate, may she prosper in life doing the RIGHT thing, which is more than I can say for the other half of her "interesting" family.
you dont graduate from harvard or anywhere else 4 that matter for anyone but yourself including family!if they CHOOSE to celebrate with you, so be it, but they didnt study day and night for you and they arent going to reap any of the benefits of that degree other than 2 b able to say...."my husband's cousin's longtime gf's neice graduated from Harvard this past week" lol!...and her raggedy father didnt even show up!
WOW! HARVARD! That and the hard work that she put into earning her degree is bigger then any grammy I hope she will go onto to wonderful things and show the family how to make money without pimping your self in front of a camera. Joe knows why he was there his perfume isnt selling because he didnt have the college to back up his marketing plan.
THAT FAMILY IS SO FUCKED UP!
@ the first commenter in Latoyas book she said that Joe was the puppet and Katherine pulled the strings.
