Janet Jackson Denies She's After Michael Jackson's Money

The on-going, and quite frankly tiring, saga of the Jackson family rumbles on, with a statement released by Janet Jackson's attorney that strongly refutes claims made by Michael Jackson 's estate handlers that she and the late singer's brothers are trying to benefit financially from them. There have been several disagreements over the reading of the will, with the family furious that music industry veterans John Branca and John MCClain are in charge of Jackson's legacy and not they. Added to that is the confusing subplot that played out recently that saw the family matriarch Katherine Jackson seemingly disappear for 10 days to a spa, only to claim she'd been sent there by her kids to keep her out of the way.

The latest twist comes from Janet, whose attorney Blair G. Brown said in a statement "They stand to gain nothing financially by a finding that the will is invalid." Continuing, he added "What will be gained ... is that the executors will be replaced and the estate and the guardianship will be managed in a manner that is in the best interest of the children, which is what Michael wanted."

That's according to Janet's view point anyway, despite it seemingly being different to the 2002 will that was signed and agreed. This has been rumbling on for months now, and there is still no clear sign of how it's going to end.

The Jackon family has nothing to gain from MJ's so called will, they only seem to want answers. I would do the same as you if, someone gave me proof that my loveone was in another state at the time the will was sign. Don't allow these Lawyers to get away with getting paid from your brother and making millions, when infact, he never wanted them to deal with his estate at all. Continue, to you find out the true facts.

The media is always gonna portray the family as gold diggers cos that's what they want you to think. MJ's whole career was contrived, he was the industry's own personal performing circus animal used to reel in the money. I dunno how he was able to put up with the acting so long... must've been on pain of death of the very family they want you to believe are financial vampires.....people need to switch on to who the real leeches are!
