46. Did any catch the fact that Joe Jackson seemed very focused on promoting his "record company"? How shocking, what an opportunist. It seems to me he the BET Awards for chance to walk the red carpet and promote himself, not to honor Michael. Also, when asked how his wife and how Janet and LaToya were, his response was, "Oh they're fine." he showed very little emotion. Again, shocking...I did not get the impression that he was grieving at all.

I did not like Joe Jackson before, I like him even less now!

How disgusting...Using your son's death as an opportunity for self promotion. Shocking!

47. Um, his son just died three days ago and he's doing "GREAT"?????
I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, though. Maybe it just hasn't really hit him yet.
I sure hope that's the case.

48. What a disgraceful and disgusting person. This guy has the audacity to plug his record company at an awards show when his son is still at the county morgue!? What a gigantic POS!!! This interview will go down in history as one of THE MOST shameful displays of selfishness and self indulgence we've ever seen. This man obviously had no feelings for his son and I hope the world sees it LOUD & CLEAR now.

50. I feel so sorry for Michael, after watching his father on the red carpet, just days after his son died and he can even think about going out in public with attorney and publicist, all the reports about that man must be true. NO ONE WAS PROTECTING MICHAEL.

52. THIS GUY IS AWFUL, CLEARLY WHY MJ HAD ISSUES
JUST WANTED TO PLUG HIS RECORD LABEL AND FRIEND
IGNORES ADDRESSING THE LIKELY VERY REAL GRIEF OF HIS WIFE AND DAUGHTERS
HE USES IT TO ASSERT CONTROL OF THE ESTATE IN INTRODUCE HIS LAWYER

NOT... I HERE JANET IS EXECUTOR
I HOPE SHE IS STRONG ENOUGH TO STAND UP TO THAT DISGUSTING MAN
NO RESPECT FOR HIS SON. JANET GET THE KIDS AWAY FROM HIM.

53. This is ridiculous. The man has absolutely no shame at all. He was more concerened about his lawyer and business partner getting plugs in on his behalf instead of remorsing about his son. EFF U JOE JACKSON

54. This man is a piece of work.
His son isnt even in the ground and he is parading on the red carpet?
Life sucking monster.
This creep is the bases of MJ's issues.
Shameless, attention whore.

55. THAT SON OF A BITCH WAS PROMOTING HISELF IN FRONT OF THE WORLD 3 DAYS AFTER HIS SONS DEATH. I SEE WHY MJ HAD SOME ISSUES A FATHER LIKE THAT WHO NEEDS ENEMIES. I'M WATCHING THE BET AWARDS AND THEY JUST WENT AWAY FROM THE WHOLE TRIBUTE TO MICHEAL JACKSON THEME....WOW

56. Joe Jackson has one interest....$$$$$$$...Unbelievably he plugged his future ventures while being interviewed about his son. The whole thing was very creepy. I'm sure Joe is hoping it is something nefarious which killed MJ instead of his abuse which lead to the many dependencies Michael had.

57. I've always believed Michael Jackson to be sincere and true in all the interviews I've seen him in and what he said about his father I can tell was VERY true. I couldn't believe my ears, I thought I was hearing wrong. He went to the awards to announce his new record label, WTF!

Posted at 9:55PM on Jun 28th 2009 by Joe Jackson no real DAD

58. I also guess his father wanted to be there to celebrate his life but that must have been awful hard to go there I know I could never do that if someone passed away but thats just me, maybe hes a strong guy. I still think the stuff that his dad has done in his life isnt right but everyone can be redeemed, I wonder if he truly regrets what he did to them and even knows how wrong he was and how much it hurt all of them including Michael? The world may never know.
