It's really not difficult to understand why the Jacksons would feel a way about Joh'Vonnie. She had the father they always wanted. Anyone expecting them to embrace her like the sister they never had is being unrealistic. Joseph created a deeply uncomfortable situation. If you read Latoya's book, she talks about how he had no regard for how any of his older children would feel when he learned his mistress was pregnant. He basically told them they had a baby sister on the way (not Katherine's though!) like it was the most natural thing in the world. He didn't care about Katherine or his kids' feelings. It's understandable why they would resent him and anyone attached to the situation. Can you imagine knowing your abusive father is cheating on your sweet mother for YEARS and having to act like everything was fine. THEN he eventually starts a secret family and gives that child all the love and care he couldn't find for you? They couldn't even call him "Dad", couldn't get a hug, or an "I love you" but the new baby did? I don't blame them for feeling loyalty to Katherine or for feeling uncomfortable with Joh'vonnie for the rest of their lives. I think they did the best they could with what they were comfortable with by inviting her to functions later on. But did you notice that only Katherine and Rebbie were close to her? Likely due to their religious beliefs more than anything. No, Joh'vonnie didn't deserve to be hurt but she has to understand the dad she knew was not the father they did. The whole situation is sad

[@ByShaneez]

It's weird to me that she keeps insinuating that she could've had a huge impact on Michael's life if she had only been a part of it. I don't buy that for a second. The people he was closest to all his life couldn't save him. I don't believe she would've had the kind of impact she thinks she would have. Also how odd is it that she seems to have the most issues with Janet and Michael (the most famous Jacksons). Could be because she had a largely parasocial relationship with them before meeting them and they didn't meet her expectations, but it's hard not to feel she wanted some proximity to fame

[@birdsandbutterflies-uu5wf]

Very, very well said, through and through. Thank you for speaking up ❤️🙏🏼🌻

[@TheAngelskye66]

True, the Dad Johvonnie knew and grew up with was not the father the Jackson siblings knew and grew up with. Although she never asked to be born,she reaped all the benefits from Joe and that famous Jackson name.Sounds as if she thought her siblings would just embrace her automatically and became sour when it didn't happen.Her siblings being cordial to her is maybe all they could do.The Jackson siblings were loyal to their mother and hurt by Joe's betrayal and his defiance.That left a deep wound with them.I remember an interview where Janet choked up after describing an memory of her asking her father if she could call him Dad,with his immediate reply to Janet was- No,I'm Joe to you. Indeed it is a sad situation for all sides, but her talking badly about her famous siblings will not help her.

Joseph did much harm to his family. There should be no blame or judgment on the Jackson siblings' behavior in this case.

They had to watch Katherine suffer(and be alone) while Joe was juggling two women,and probably spending a great deal of his time with Joh'Vonnie and her mother. A situation like that would create hurt feelings across the board,and an awkwardness in their interactions with their father's " love child."

It wasn't up to the Jackson children to make right the wrongs of Joe Jackson. Michael was the main financial institution of that family ever since his childhood, supporting everyone's lifestyle for many year's. Janet grew up and developed a successful career for herself, however Michael was the main supporting factor for everyone else for decade's and until his death. I can totally see why he in particular, would have certain feelings about Joe having and financially supporting a secret family off of his back.

[@mechajay3358]

The siblings especially Michael were under no obligation to her, I know its not her fault, but she was a product of an affair and was raised completely separately from them for years so she shouldn't automatically expect all of them to form a relationship with her. And then for her to claim that Michael was "making up stories about their father to gain sympathy" only adds to her ignorance. It comes down to the fact that Joseph didn't raise her with extremely strict discipline like he did the rest of her siblings. Explains why they feel resentment. Also its pretty petty on her part to feel jealous that Michael gave more attention to her daughter than he did her. And that's not even going into her ego that "she could've saved Michael" if she was in his life more. She just comes off very entitled. No wonder she wasn't invited to his memorial.

Janet and Michael didn't really know their half sibling so they were cold and distant while the other siblings tried to be friendly but something always stopped them from going forward. Joh'Vonnie saying that Michael said that the abuse was fake is so not okay bc she only got one half while MJ was getting abused by the other half

[@BigBobbyBoLo]

I was rolling with her all the way until the part where she decided to say " we've been bamboozled by his publicity image". So basically a child that wasn't born yet, that wasn't around, has first hand knowledge of what joseph was like to his other family? That's complete lunacy and second hand information from the victimizor himself. I get her hurt, I really do, but this is a super awkward and complicated situation for everyone involved and inserting herself in things she wasn't apart of is cray

[@La-wr5dn]

Actually, it's been said by others that Michael was a lot like his Dad Joseph. Even his speaking voice was different than when he was "on." Different people who've worked with him and family members etc... And, despite his complicated relationship with his Dad, he wanted Joseph around when he negotiated deals because he trusted Joseph to catch any shady vibes. Ijs.

[@tamekaroyal3220]

Exactly

[@anunheardtruth3071]

Whether or not she had firsthand experience or not, I can't say I disagree with her - Michael often played the victim card and exhibited a lot of self-pity. I'm not saying he wasn't mistreated or discriminated or abused in many situations but even many of the siblings don't agree to the same extent of abuse as he did. One could argue Stevie Wonder had a worse childhood dealing with blindness and his parents divorcing. I can't find it now but the "On My Anger" thread at Maximum Jackson was a real eye-opener - rational MJ fans who vented about his arrogance and self-pity getting in the way of his life. From business perspective, he was notorious for being shrewd and often cutting ties or falling out of partnerships abruptly. A lot of it could be attributed to a paranoia and the pressures of his reputation and his fans are quick to blame these people (Quincy Jones, Paul Anka, Prince to name a few) for misusing him when he still shares some of the blame.

[@Linda-yh7mh]

Michael is extremely close with his mom so it stands to reason why he felt her pain when finding this out plus she was born one day after his birthday. She was allowed to call him dad but Michael and his brothers and sisters were not. Joe was not affectionate with them but he was with her , that had to of hurt all those years also.

She has to remember that all along Michael and his brothers knew Joe would go off and have his affairs while they were on tour. Joh'Vonnie could have easily tried to mend those relationships between her siblings and Joseph. I think they would had appreciated her for that and saw that she actually cared about sharing the same type of relationship with Joe, but instead she flaunted around how well she was treated and was even able to call him "Daddy"; knowing that her other siblings never had that bond with him.

While I have tremendous sympathy for Joh'Vonnie Jackson, her father not only betrayed his wife, but his children as well. I can understand their unwillingness to accept her and would probably feel the same as them if I were in that situation.

[@AnnikaHock]

After viewing this video, i absolutely understand why the jacksons didnt want anything to do with her

[@cameliab6946]

I understand that she was upset of how she was treated by her family that she never got to know better. I also understand that it wasnt easy for the Jackson's kids with how Joe treated them while johvonnie got a better treatment. They should have gave her a chance and understand that it wasnt her fault and she never asked for this and so did they. But I dont think we should question the way Michael talked anout his abusive childhood: I will never believe he did this for attention, I genuinely believe he was in pain and that traumatized him forever...so just because johnvonnie got love from Joe doesnt mean it was the same for her other siblings...He treated his other kids like cashcows

Please understand, Michael and his siblings could call Joseph "daddy," just not in public. Joseph explained that he wanted his children to be able to handle dealing with management whenever they decided to move on to different management. Also, Joh'vonnie needs to get a grip. She has no right to confront anyone. The kids do not owe her anything.

[@mykoniichistorychannel]

That’s not the way Michael and Janet told it, and Latoya having to wait until 50s to call him dad says otherwise. As far as the Joh’vonnie girl, she reads as entitled opportunist.

[@iikkumii]

I genuinely understand her frustrations and pain, but in Michael's case, it was said he could be standoffish and distant with the siblings he actually DID have a relationship with sometimes, so what I don't understand is why she thought it would be so easy for her to connect with Michael in that way. 😂

[@monicakarungari2284]

Joe Jackson is the root of all this mess. he passed away but is still causing problems. its unacceptable that Joh'vonnie invalidates the abuse that her siblings went through just because she was favoured by Joe

[@kyle_Neville]

Thank you “the detail” for being objective. As a former fan of MJ the man and a current fan of MJ the artist…i appreciate ability to both give reverence to his artistic accomplishment while reminding us he was an extremely flawed human being….knowing what I know now…it would be cringe if you guys were to just present him as an angel who was to good for this world.

[@thedetail.]

Thank you, very much appreciate it!

[@ll-22da]

I mean i get where she comes from wanting a relationship with her siblings but i also get why the sibling were distant towards her she was a half sibling from an affair. And i can imangine how hard it is to bond within this Situation. But her talking about she went thought the same things as her brother but then complain that he is trying to vitcimized himself is crazy . But also she was in the love one another music video from Tito .

Michael was very close to his mother, he would never accept something that hurt Katherine. Brandon is Joe's son and Joe has a daughter called Abigail. ( hidden children)

[@johnlucas1543]

Ohhhh, he's bringing up Joh'Vonnie. Oh man. I didn't think we would be going here after the breakdowns of Janet, LaToya, & Jermaine but here we are. It's Joe's fault how this tension got started in the family. Especially as Joh'Vonnie got to call Joe "Daddy". It seems like Joe's used emotional distance to create professional success in his children. The one he allowed to call him "Daddy" ended up living a regular life out of showbiz. Luckily eldest sister Rebbie didn't hold it against the girl & even Katherine took her in when she definitely didn't have to. At least she got to go to Neverland. It's a damn shame how things happened.

[@jacquelinebourque8041]

JohVonnie was expecting that the JACKSONS would introduce her to the crowds as the "JACKSON NEWBIE" 😅 Not a chance. Sorry but, that's not how it works. Dang old Joe Jackson. Lost soul.

[@TheSharton71]

She called her dad Dad. Something what the other kids called him Joseph. Papa Jackson did what he could with what he had. He left the family and clan well behind. So props to him R.I.P.

[@CarsonDouglas]

Michael gave her a shoulder colder than Winnipeg in December 🥶 They was never going to accept her, because Kathrine doesn't. As they shouldn't. Joe was a colorist. He treated her better because she is lighter skinned.

[@1NewAgeGoddess]

🤭

[@daradiant1]

Update: Katherine, Rebbie, Tito, & Jackie all have reached out to Joh'vonnie. At one point, Janet did too. I don't know about Jermaine and Randy, but Latoya, no. In fact, she was in the group photo that was shown in the beginning, they have invited her over to dinner, conversate after Joe's funeral, she was in Tito's video. She has moved to Georgia and living a good life. They still in communication with her.

[@silviajackito]

Just children who haven't been loved by their fathers and worse those fathers cared about other kids but not them, can understand Michael's behaviour with this girl. It was too painful for Him and his brothers and sisters. It is very sad that Joh'vonnie never knew Michael and it is not necessary to know him in person to know that He is a Lovely man, Humble and Honest. His suffering caused by a not loving father all his life marked Him deeply. Sorry, but I don't like her and I don't like this video.

Yet, she chose to criticize Micheal knowing how he was treated. Why, because she didn't get the attention she wanted from Michael? Yeap.... sad.

I think Michael just didn't want to communicate much closer, just because she's not his type of personality to communicate. It doesn't depend on whether she's a half-sister or not, and it doesn't depend on Joseph. Only by type of personality, character half-sister, Michael did not want to communicate much and often.
