Joe Jackson And The Jackson Three

Joe Jackson, father of the late pop star Michael Jackson, is reportedly preparing to take his grandchildren on a world tour as The Jackson Three.

Mr Jackson, who managed the Jackson Five when Michael was a child, is said to have approached Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and seven-year old Prince Michael II - known as Blanket - to appear on stage next year. News of the tour comes after Mr Jackson told reporters that Paris had shown talent as a performer and that Blanket was a very good dancer.

However, the move has angered other members of the Jackson clan, who fear touring could expose the children to exploitation.

The children are currently the subjects of a custody battle.

Is there no end to this guys greed. He virtually beat Micheal Jackson to stardom, wrecking his childhood as he paraded his own five kids around the world. Now he wants to take the grandchildren and do the same with them. Unbelievable.

Micheal Jackson left his father out of his will. That says it all for me to be honest.

Micheal Jackson 'Emaciated, Bald With Only Pills In His Stomach'

Michael Jackson was emaciated, virtually bald, covered in needle scars and had only pills in his stomach when he died, according to an autopsy report.

Whether or not we will ever hear the REAL truth about this incident remains pretty slim to be honest. As with a few superstars who have suffered 'Death By Showbusiness' ,as Jacko did, the families and friends tend to cover up any wrong doings and faults that may be uncovered. I don't blame them either. At the end of the day, Micheal Jackson was just the much loved son of two parents and nothing more than that.

The Sun newspaper apparently have had access to the leaked autopsy report on Jackson, who collapsed with a heart attack at the age of 50 on Thursday. He was 5ft 10in tall but weighed only 8st 10z, according to The Sun.

His stomach contained the remains of partially dissolved tablets taken by the singer before an alleged final injection of painkillers, according to a coroner's report seen by the newspaper.

It disclosed that the star's distinctive shoulder length locks were a wig as he had lost virtually all of his hair.

Meanwhile his body was covered in a mass of surgery scars from at least 13 cosmetic operations, the newspaper claimed.

Following disclosures about the singer's addiction to a cocktail of painkillers, the post mortem report was said to confirm that his legs and shoulders bore numerous needle marks.

The Sun also detailed evidence of the final efforts to save the singer's life after his collapse including broken ribs, believed to have been caused by frantic resuscitation, and the wounds from injections to restart his heart.

The Ugliest Celebrities

You can click the thumbnails to get even closer but it's scary!

Michael Jackson
Did you really expect anyone else? Michael Jackson used to be a successful black singer, but took it upon himself to destroy his face and reputation. He now looks like an albino alien whose nose appears to change on a daily basis. Just goes to show you what can happen if you are too critical of your looks... you can end up an albino alien like Mike.

Marty Feldman
Marty Feldman (1934 – 1982) was an English writer, comedian and BAFTA award winning actor, notable for his bulging eyes, which were the result of a thyroid condition known as Graves Disease. He wrote situation comedies such as The Army Game, Bootsie and Snudge for the BBC and later had a series of his own on the BBC called Marty. He also appeared in The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother and Mel Brooks' Silent Movie, as well as directing and starring in The Last Remake of Beau Geste. He guest-starred in the "Arabian Nights" episode of The Muppet Show.



Marilyn Manson
Seriously ... what the hell happened to this kid? From the ghostly white makeup you can see on his black collar to the funky blue eye and blood red lips ... Marilyn Manson is a freak and there's nothing more to say, he's ugly by choice. And not only is he ugly, but he scares the crap out of us.



Jocelyn Wildenstein
Holy crap! This is what happens when you get obsessed with plastic surgery. A wealthy socialite from Switzerland, Jocelyn is actually a celeb for being so ugly. Her extreme appearance has led to the press giving her the nickname "The Bride of Wildenstein," a reference to The Bride of Frankenstein. Wildenstein has allegedly spent almost US$4,000,000 on cosmetic surgery over the years, all payed by her husband, the billionaire international art dealer Alec Wildenstein.



Michael Berryman
No, it is not make-up. This actor born in LA, suffers from Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia (a rare condition leaving him with no sweat glands, hair, fingernails or teeth). He played Pluto in Wes Craven's 1977 horror film The Hills Have Eyes. He has also appeared in numerous science fiction and fantasy movies such as My Science Project (1985), Weird Science (1985), Armed Response (1986) and Evil Spirits (1990). He also appeared in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and The Devil's Rejects. Berryman generally portrays mutant bikers, evil undertakers, monsters and other frightening characters. He has also starred in episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation and The X-Files.



Clint Howard
No weird disease this time, he's just plain ugly. But then, again, it is probably what made him famous. Born in 1959, the actor appeared in Cocoon, Steve Martin's Parenthood, EdTV, Apollo 13, Austin Powers, That Thing You Do among others. In 1998, Howard was awarded the MTV Lifetime Achievement Award. He got married twice, just to show you that looks don't matter.



Lyle Lovett
Lyle Lovett has to have some good blackmail on someone. Otherwise, how in the hell did he ever get into acting? And the fact that Julia Roberts married this beast makes us think she's not only nuts, but ugly too. Tell us one thing that you find attractive about this man ... go on. Then we'll laugh at you.



Kelis
Holy hell ... Kelis is not bringin' any boys to the yard looking like that. There have been rumors that she is really a man, and quite frankly we are thinking something's not right with this chick. Every time we see her she has her mouth open and looks like she's ready to eat us. She's scary. Next time we see her, we are looking for the Adam's apple.



Iggy Pop
Rock singer, songwriter, and occasional actor, he is sometimes referred to by the nicknames "the Godfather of Punk". Iggy Pop was the lead singer of The Stooges, a late 1960s/early 1970s garage rock band who were influential in the development of the nascent heavy metal and punk rock genres. The Stooges became infamous for their live performances, during which it was not uncommon for Iggy Pop to leap off the stage (in fact, he was among the first to "stage dive"), smear raw meat (and on one occasion peanut butter) over his chest and/or cut himself with broken bottles. So this is how you get ugly by being nut.



Steven Tyler
Dude looks like a zombie. He's a great singer, a cool guy, the daddy of one of the hottest girls on hollywood, plus all the money and women one could ever dream of... and yet... ugly as hell.



Courtney Love
Drugs don't make people pretty... and this woman is about as ugly and classless as it can get.



Donatella Versace
Oh, how the years go by. Yes, she's talented, famous and rich, but... she's now ugly as hell!



Amy Winehouse
English soul, jazz, and R&B singer and songwriter, she's another drug victim. Now, get this: she has a number of "old school" tattoos of naked women on her body. When asked about them, she was quoted as saying "I like pin-up girls. I'm more of a boy than a girl in that way. I'm not a lesbian, though — not before a sambuca anyway. And the she said she would own a beauty salon once her singing schedule calms down... that's a must.



Ronaldinho
Probably the world's best soccer player at this time, Ronaldinho might be one of the funniest, honest, and nicest celebs around... but he's also one of the ugliest. This brazilian is certainly saving his huge salary for something other than helping his image.



Kelly Osbourne
"Uh, I'm ugly." Yeah, we know Kelly. The British accent is cute and we love that she is all about being an individual, but quite frankly Kelly Osbourne's annoying and a brat. And we're not picking on her weight, because it fluctuates and we don't care. Weight really can't change whether you are ugly or not. And Kelly is on my list!

The Pervert And The Magician

Reportedly excited about the prospect of incorpo-rating some of David Copperfield's sleights of hand into his UK tour, Michael Jackson his been forced to give up on the idea of a collaboration on money grounds reports the Sun. Makes a change for him to be thrilled at anything besides having kids in his bed.

According to the report the star illusionist was demanding £1 million per show. “He was so excited about working with David but fell out with him over the money he wanted,” says a source.

“Michael told David he would be wasting his time with the London residency if he was splashing out so much on just one person. So he told him the deal was off.”

I think the whole tour should be put where it belongs, in the sewers.

Why on earth anyone is interested in seeing a washed up pervert like Wacko Jacko performing is beyond me. His wealth saved him from being convicted of molesting one kid when he paid him off with $17 million. That's as good as admitting your guilt.

I hope his shows are a complete failure and people see him for what he really is. A disgusting little pervert!
