La Toya Jackson on Donahue Show in 1991 [Complete Interview]

[@storiking650]

She was obviously telling the God's honest TRUTH about her Dad having a whole other family that Katherine KNEW about, the outside daughter JohVonnie Jackson subsequently came out with a book called "Bastard Child" & went on a full press run all over the news. This part came out to be true & Michael substantiated the awful abuse he endured. It's hard not to believe this stuff wasn't true, it was at the very least lies combined with truth as in thee 2 aforementioned truths. I believe she recanted & placed all the blame on Jack Gordon just to get back into the good graces of her family, once she was tired of him & ready to kick him to the curb.

[@eric3374]

I agree with every word you wrote 100%

[@storiking650]

@Eric Greeting dear friend ☺️! 🙏🏾😊I thank you kindly for being an intelligent, reasonable & fair-minded person 🙏🏾!!! Happy New Year to you & ur lovely.

[@globalcitizenn]

She didn’t recant any of the family abuse.. only the stuff about MJ which even the courts said wasn’t true. She was just giving her opinion at the time which was heavily influenced by Gordon. Gordon needed to keep her isolated from her family and constantly lied about them to her to keep total control over her, as she was his meal ticket. Among the lies he told her were that her family was planning to murder him and kidnap her and they were in danger from her family, when the truth was opposite.. when Flo Anthony tried to intervene and defend Latoya against Gordon’s beatings, HE threatened to kill HER. He lied that her parents did not want her to succeed and were sabotaging her career and only HE could help her. He influenced that Michael was guilty and made her say it publicly to break her bond from her most powerful and sympathetic sibling who could be a threat to him. Sociopaths like Gordon use your vulnerabilities to exploit you.. this is why one should be careful in whom they confide.

La Toya, hands down, knows exactly what goes on behind the scenes in the entertainment industry, would love to sign an NDA and have a glass of wine with her.

[@akili3621]

How the mother and father say that she’s lying but they haven’t read the book has always struck me as odd. In reasoning. I feel she went through a lot of victim shaming. 😢

[@vashtikelly6837]

JOW THINKS HE SLICK, TOYA DIDN'T WANT TO MENTION JO'VHONNIE'S NAME BUT JOE DOES HAVE ANOTHER OUTSIDE DAUGHTER......

[@vashtikelly6837]

CJ THANK YOU FOR YOUR HEART....

[@beautifulwoman7341]

*@**26:30** her name is JOHVONNIE!!! WE ALL KNOW THIS. NOW! Latoya is telling the truth. Joe is stuttering cause he knows she's telling the truth. Joe straight up lied here. Smh. This is why I believe latoya.*

[@xoxo20000]

As time goes on, people are starting to see that the things Latoya said during this time turned out to be true. Time always reveals the truth.

[@TheGraduate702]

@@xoxo20000 Latoya also said Janet was married to Rene and that Michael wrote checks to Safechucks parents 😳. Everyone thought she was nuts but she may have been telling the truth 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@xoxo20000]

@@TheGraduate702 Yup!. She spilled a lot of things that turned out to be true like one of the brothers being an abuser, she said her father would burn their toes with matches(recently confirmed by Janet in her latest documentary after calling Latoya a liar back in the 90s btw), MJ being an hoarder, she said MJ would bring boys to havenhurst (jimmy safechuck confirmed this in leaving Neverland when he talked about visiting MJ at Hayvenhurst before he brought Neverland. Also a boy before Jimmy safechuck named Jonathan Spence was always with MJ and spent countless nights in his bed at Hayvenhurst), she said Katherine called MJ a f*ggot(this was later confirmed by a former friend of the Jackson's), Latoya also said her family tried to kidnap her...well remember the family kidnapped Katherine back in 2012. The family loves to kidnap people. MJ stans are always talking about "do research" when trying to defend Michael but then when you do the research, you find out that the things Latoya said were true. So it's a bad look for not only the Jackson family, but MJ as well.

[@Nuggetsin4]

You have to look at why people thought she was nuts. Was it maybe because they didn’t want to believe Jackson, they’re idol was a pedophile. If that’s the only reason you can think of then it’s pretty clear that she was telling the truth.

[@drnowptpimplepopper9205]

Exactly. Both him and Kathryn were untruthful

[@SocialClout]

she looked amazing here

[@Aristotle777]

Thank you so much for these ..I love watching & listening to Latoya speak. I see right through her...even through all the pain she endured, what a beautiful soul.❤️ Ok. Time to watch the vid now lol✌🏽

[@Samira_m84]

I believe her 100%, except about her mom. She was also probably abused and scared of him. But she resent her because she didn’t protect her

[@ciaransammon]

I believe her. And being hit even once is child abuse.

[@Chavis_Jones]

@@georgegeorgiev3946 In a taped phone call with Glenda. He said LaToya told the truth in her first book.

[@FromNashville2You]

She looks so beautiful in this interview! ❤️ When someone asks if she’s working on music and she says she is teasing No Relations like that. It’s crazy how the tone is so different from her interview with Phil 2 years prior in 1989. People have told me Her last appearance of this show was in 1994 I believe she performed Crazy from Nashville to you. I hope we can find that someday. I wonder if the tone is even more different than that?

[@passionfashions3018]

I miss those good old talk shows. the audience was tough!

[@dusroots]

Jack Gordon looks sleazy as hell but lawdddd Joe and Katherine are not looking good. I believe every single word!!

[@LawnBunny777]

Poor LaToya looked like she was going into shock when donahue was scream reading the book. What an aggressive pos. She was probably having flashbacks.

[@kaysmith8992]

I'm actually shocked how he let the audience loose like that. I mean sure, ask questions, but there's a really accusative tone from everyone here, they're acting like Latoya had offended their own family.

[@beyourself2444]

Donahue and Devil’s Advocate were extremely right about Jack Gordon

[@kaysmith8992]

Damn, people had nerves of steel back then. How Latoya handled that audience, I can't imagine - esp. that guy saying being whipped once wasn't abuse - did he miss the part that she got whipped _because Joe felt shamed by a minor note on a report card??_ And Latoya's eyes never deviate from the people she's addressing - even when her parents are talking she doesn't look away embarrassed, she's practically analysing her parents' voices.

[@JesusismyRock773]

If LaToya is doing this for the children, and she is doing fine financially, then she should have given all the proceeds from the book to the places that help abused children.

[@globalcitizenn]

You think Jack Gordon would let her give anything away to charity? He was making her do this for the money.. completely exploiting her and the Jackson family.. poor naive little girl thought she was doing social service. It was a narcissistic delusion. It’s one thing to talk about abuse, everyone should, but quite another to cash in on it, and violate the privacy of your other siblings like Rebbie as abuse victims should be allowed to come out in there own time, instead of “outing them” against their consent just so you can make a buck, which is abusive in itself.

[@MsJonessss]

You’re right. When michael got his head burned, pepsi wrote him a check and he donated to the burn center and didn’t really attack pepsi which i think he should’ve. I think that was a malicious malfunction. Latoya is forgiven but I honestly feel she doesn’t care about others who have been abused.

[@Jiorgiapeach]

She needed money too. She was independent during this time.

[@TTXX455]

How sad she was vilified and dragged through the mud.

[@chrisspearline767]

Nobody wanted to believe La Toya or believe abuse

[@exclusivestuff]

I hate to say it but I believe everything Latoya said was true, apart from her mom being the one controlling her dad Joseph

[@Shivaismysaviour]

RiP phil

[@secrets.295]

I have no doubt that she is capitalizing on this issue to get publicity but at the same time I have no doubt that she is telling the truths and Michael himself comfirms it via a leaked telephone calls. It annoys me how the audience here were mocking her and they only do that because people always gave a pass to celebrities to be abusive. If Latoya was a regular person with no well known family background, everybody would have sympathize her. But because it was the "legendary" Joe Jackson everybody mocks Latoya. These people are sick and they should be ashamed of themselves. PS : I am amazed at her interviewing skills. She was grilled by so many people but she maintains her compossure. Damn. I guess that is her training ever since she was a little girl. I need to learn this social skills. So jealous 😅

[@kaysmith8992]

It's mad how the audience kept blindly defending the Jacksons as if Latoya had insulted their own family. And they don't see the irony when she describes the mental grip her parents had on them all. The worst thing is they don't even seem to deny what Latoya is claiming - they're just offended that she dared to speak up about it.

[@pagandeva2000]

I don’t believe the sexual abuse. Beatings, yes. What I find strange is that years ago, Latoya’s book had a picture of Johvannie in it, and she looked so much like Janet in that picture. I reordered the book years later…no picture or mention of JoVonnie.

Ppl don’t lie about being molested by their father. It’s unheard of. She was telling the truth about all of it.

[@kaysmith8992]

Just curious why would you not believe the sexual abuse if you do believe the beatings?

[@Jiorgiapeach]

@@kaysmith8992 because the sexual abuse freaks them out so they rather just not believe it and live in a fantasy world where a grown man that sleeps with little boys and gives them wedding rings and then dumps them once they hit age 13 is not a pedophile and that his father did not molest him or his siblings either.

It's hard not to believe this stuff wasn't true, it was atleast LIES COMBINED WITH TRUTH as in the aforementioned truth mentioned above. She eventually recanted everything & placed all the blame on Jack Gordon as the brainchild/author of all the lies that were shared that were hurtful, just to get back into the good graces of her family once she was ready to kick that trashbag Gordon to the curb & go back home to the Beverly Hills & Hayvenhurst "good life", ain't nobody stupid!!!!

[@smurf5388]

But they all talked about the beatings and Joe had a daughter who was born in 1974.

[@Jiorgiapeach]

Her family coerced her into saying it was a lie. It’s clearly all true. Just think about it, strict jehova witness family, 9 children, father constantly pushing kids to make money, ridiculing them, they all grew up ravaging themselves with plastic surgery, dad had a secret whole other family, ran strip clubs, one of the kids turned out to be a massive pedo. Terrible things happened in that home. No doubt about it.
