Update: Michael Jackson’s nephew TJ Jackson – the son of Tito – was named temporary guardian of the late singer’s three children Wednesday amid allegations family matriarch Katherine is being held against her will.
“This is not a power play by TJ Jackson,” L.A. Superior Court Judge Mitchell L. Beckloff said at an emergency hearing. “This is based on the allegation that Katherine Jackson is being prevented from acting as guardian.”
Tensions between members of the Jackson family have escalated to a new level after Janet was caught slapping niece Paris on camera.
“You’re a spoiled little bitch,” Janet reportedly told Paris during Monday’s confrontation, an unidentified source told TMZ.
Paris reportedly screamed back, “This is our house. Not the Jackson family house. Get the f*** out!”
The family feud is pitting the late Michael Jackson siblings Janet, Randy, Jermaine and Rebbie against brothers Marlon, Tito and Jackie and Jacko’s three kids — who claim their grandmother was effectively kidnapped more than a week ago.
“9 days and counting,” Paris wrote on Twitter, about her grandmother’s absence. “So help me god I will make whoever did this pay.”
The ugly battle is said to stem from claims that the executors of his brother’s estate faked his will.
The siblings allege they have proof — including video of Jackson with Sharpton — that the superstar was really in Harlem on the day in 2002 his will was supposedly signed with a Los Angeles dateline.
