Joe Jackson Sells Unauthorized Perfume

Does Joe Jackson exploit Michael Jackson's memory?
Joe Jackson has launched a new "Jackson" perfume and tried to drum up investors at the Cannes Film Festival last month.

The problem is (aside from the fact that Jackson is shamelessly exploiting his son) Bravado International owns all the licensing rights to the Jackson image. They are suing Joe for $150,000 and an additional $750 for every time Michael Jackson's name is used to sell something.

The company says "Michael Jackson's talent made his name one of the most valuable in the history of entertainment, and no person acting on behalf of the estate gave [Joe Jackson's perfume company] oral or written consent to exploit it."

Do you agree with Joe Jackson that spanking your kids keeps them out of trouble?
Oh boy, here we go! Another day, another opportunity for Joe Jackson to both exploit Michael Jackson's celebrity and lie about his past. This time he's claiming that he "spanked" Michael to keep him out of gangs. When asked if he regrets it, he says "No! They tried to make a big issue when I spanked Michael or some of the kids, ya know? Just like they didn't spank their kids when they did wrong. The media twists everything."

Joe Jackson really knows how to downplay some seriously abusive behavior. My guess is he did a little bit more than just "spank Michael or some of the kids." He goes on "I had to be like that because when raising him in those days, so many gangs out there getting into trouble, going to jail. Most of them are dead now."

Oh Joe, I hope we'll be seeing less and less of you as the years go on. One can only hope...
