Home videos showing Michael Jackson singing with his children have been played in court during the trial of AEG Live.

The footage shows intimate moments between Jackson and his kids Prince Michael, Paris and Blanket.

The singer plays the role of director as he also lines them up and asks them what they want to be when they grow up. Paris says she wants to help the poor and be a gymnast, while Prince Michael and Blanket both opt for film director.

Prince also sees himself as an architect because he “likes to build things.” The film was shot when he was nine-years-old.

The videos have been shown in a court in Los Angeles during the trial of AEG Live, the promoters of the planned comeback tour which Jackson was rehearsing for at the time of his death.

Prince took to the stand and narrated through photos of himself and his siblings. He also talked about how his father used to get upset and cry after speaking to AEG executives.

The company is accused of wrongful death/negligence after allowing Dr Conrad Jackson to take care of the singer but failing to supervise him properly.

The trial of the suit brought by the children’s grandparent Katherine Jackson is now in its ninth week.
