Janet: I Had No Idea MJ Used Propofol

Posted Nov 19th 2009 12:28AM by TMZ Staff

Though she knew Michael Jackson had a drug problem, Janet says she had no clue her brother was using Propofol -- the drug that ultimately killed him.


In an interview with Robin Roberts, MJ's sister says it was "a shocker" when she found out about the dangerous drug he used to go to sleep -- and no one in family knew the extent to which he was using.

Janet Jackson -- Don't Let Murray Kill Again

Posted Nov 17th 2009 9:08AM by TMZ Staff

Janet Jackson doesn't want Dr. Conrad Murray to continue practicing medicine -- because she doesn't want the man she holds "responsible" for her brother's death to strike again on "someone else."


In an interview with ABC's Robin Roberts, Janet also said she doesn't know if Murray was the only doctor hooking Michael up with drugs -- but added "the truth always prevails."

Robin Roberts' Surgery a Success

Posted Aug 4th 2007 11:04AM by TMZ Staff

"Good Morning America" co-host Robin Roberts successfully underwent surgery to treat breast cancer yesterday, and the 46-year-old GMA gabber is reportedly already home from the hospital. This past Tuesday, Roberts announced on-air that she was diagnosed with the disease, and revealed that GMA film critic Joel Siegel's battle with cancer prompted her to get checked out.

Her revelation resulted in an outpouring of support -- and an increase in women seeking mammograms and breast exams.

A rep for "Good Morning America" said that while her surgery was successful, doctors don't yet know the long-term impact.
