Tito Jackson u Rity Cosby. Live and Direct!

Dziś w nocy czasu amerykańskiego w programie “Live and Direct” pojawił się brat MJ’a, Tito Jackson. Celem spotkania był solowy album Tito, który już wkrótce się ukaże. Rozmowa jednakże non stop nawiązywała do Michaela. Tito nic konkretnego nie powiedział pomimo, że Rita wielokrotnie go wypytywała. Tito wypowiadał się na temat MJ bardzo ogólnikowo i można było odnieś wrażenie, że raczej unika odpowiedzi na jego temat, kiedy Rita zapytała czy MJ jest w Bahrainie, Tito odpowiedział, że u brata wszystko OK, jest bardzo szczęśliwy i nagrywa piosenki na rzecz ofiar huraganu Katrina poza tym słucha muzyki i się relaksuje! Rita również zapytała czy MJ będzie mieszkać w Bahraine na stałe, Tito odpowiedział, że MJ osiedli się tam, gdzie będzie się czuł najlepiej.
W ramach ciekawostki, Tito zaprzeczył, aby jego siostra Janet miała dziecko!

COSBY: And that is Tito Jackson‘s brand-new song. His big break was singing, of course, with his brothers when they were the famous Jackson 5. And now, Michael Jackson‘s big brother is going solo with a new album that is called “Tito.” And it‘s going to be coming out early next year.

And joining me now LIVE & DIRECT is Tito Jackson, the one and the only. Tito, you look terrific. I just read, did you just turn 52? You look fantastic.

TITO JACKSON, SINGER: Yes, I did, October 15th.

COSBY: Are you sure you‘re not lying? You look great.

JACKSON: Thank you very much. I had a birthday this...

COSBY: Just a few days ago, right?

JACKSON: Yes, a couple of weeks ago, October the 15th, yes.

COSBY: Tell me, how excited are you about going solo?

JACKSON: I‘m very excited, because it‘s something that I‘ve always wanted to do. And all of my siblings have had a solo record at one time or another. And even my sons have had their solo albums. And I feel that it‘s my turn, so I‘m taking my turn now.

COSBY: Where did you get the inspiration from?

JACKSON: Well, it‘s something that‘s always been into me, being in showbiz and wanting to do this, and not wanting to be a trivia question, “Which Jackson had never done a solo?” So I didn‘t want to become that. So I decided I should do a record.

COSBY: You know, are your brothers going to be involved in anything?

Will we see them touring?

JACKSON: Yes, I‘m going to ask my brothers to join me on a song. As well, I have my sons on a few songs, as well.

COSBY: Oh, that‘s great. Will we see Michael as a part of it, too?

JACKSON: Well, I can always ask. I can‘t answer that right now, but I would love that.

COSBY: Yes, that would be great.

You know, speaking of family, you and I talked right when the verdict came down with Michael. It‘s five months later. How is your family doing?

JACKSON: We‘re doing fine. Everybody is back in the swing of things and enjoying life. And we‘re looking forward for the holidays to get together for the celebrations. And Michael is doing fine. And it‘s a happy moment.

COSBY: Yes, it is. There seems to be a renewed spirit there. You know, Michael we know is living in Bahrain. Have you talked to him? How‘s he doing? How‘s he holding up?

JACKSON: He‘s doing very good. He‘s in great spirit. He‘s recording, and he‘s doing some songs for the hurricane relief victims. And it‘s going to be a great thing.

COSBY: You know, has he been back-and-forth? Or is he mostly staying in Bahrain? And sort of who is involved?

JACKSON: Well, he‘s been relaxing, basically. And he‘s asked some friends to join him on some music. And he‘s just putting that together for the victims of Hurricane Katrina, and he‘s going to be OK.

COSBY: How‘s he doing? He‘s mostly in London, too, I understand.

He‘s sort of back-and-forth.

JACKSON: Yes.

COSBY: How‘s he spending his time? I mean, what is he doing with his days?

JACKSON: He‘s basically relaxing, listening to music, recording music. He‘s being Michael, doing his thing. He‘s a musical guy. And you can‘t take that out of his life. So he‘s enjoying what he loves to do.

COSBY: Is he going to be living permanently in Bahrain, as there have been reports from the attorney?

JACKSON: Oh, no, I can‘t answer that. I don‘t know the correct answer on that. But I‘m pretty sure he‘ll settle wherever he feels most comfortable.

COSBY: You know, there has been some other stuff. I‘ve got to ask you about Janet Jackson, your sister, that she had a child 18 years ago. Is that true?

JACKSON: No, that‘s not true at all. That‘s a total rumor. I would have known that one. Me and my brothers, we laugh about it all the time.

COSBY: Yes, why did they put it out there? Why was that out there?

JACKSON: I have no idea. I have no idea whatsoever. As I understand that my sister, Rebbie, had raised this kid and the whole thing. And I‘m pretty sure I would know about that, and so would a lot of other people, so that‘s a total rumor.

COSBY: What do you see for the family now? Is this sort of a fresh start? But do you think you guys will always sort of be in the news, no matter what?

JACKSON: Well, we‘ve been doing this for quite some time. And it‘s always a fresh start. Every day is a fresh start in show business. So we‘ll continue to do the great things in music that we always have done in the past. And that‘s where we‘re going.

COSBY: How is Michael‘s family, too, in support? I know that you‘re really close to him. Is a sense that the family is closer than ever? And how are his kids?

JACKSON: His kids are fine. And we‘ve always been a tight-knit family. So the support is definitely there, as everyone saw across the world.

And, like I said, Michael‘s a great guy. And he‘s in great spirit.

And he‘s going to be OK.

COSBY: And are they very excited, I‘m sure, for you, with you launching your career?

JACKSON: Yes. I‘m very excited about that. It‘s a long time coming. And I‘m looking forward to hearing myself on the radio and going out performing and doing some great things for the music.

COSBY: Well, that is terrific. And you have that wonderful Jackson gift, Tito. And the music is beautiful. I‘m sure it‘s going to do great.

JACKSON: Thank you.

COSBY: Thank you so much. It‘s great to have you on.

JACKSON: Thank you very much. Thank you very much.

COSBY: Thanks so much.
