JERMAINE JACKSON DISMISSES ROWE'S CUSTODY BID

JERMAINE JACKSON has dismissed his former sister-in-law DEBBIE ROWE's bid to gain custody of her two children with MICHAEL JACKSON - insisting it isn't what the King of Pop wanted.
After a week of silence following Jackson's sudden death, Rowe spoke out on Thursday (02Jul09), revealing she wanted to fight for Prince Michael and Paris.
Her lawyer later insisted Rowe was still considering her options ahead of a potential custody battle - but Jermaine insists his late brother's will details his wishes, and that should be respected.
He says, "The will was really written well. And it was executed by the executors. And they did a great job. It's what it is.
"No, (I don't think she has a shot at custody) because this is what Michael wanted. If we're looking at Michael and this is all about Michael, this is what he wanted."
Jackson's will hands over custody of his three kids - including youngest son 'Blanket' Prince Michael II - to his mother Katherine. Diana Ross is named as an alternative guardian.
