Unreleased Michael Jackson Home Video (With His Children) Revealed
Courtesy of The Showbiz 411:
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.

Rick Rubin Did Not Produce On Jay-Z’s ‘Magna Carta’ Album
In a recent interview with XXL Magazine, Rick Rubin speaks on his involvement with Jay-Z’s Magna Carta Holy Grail; it turns out that Rubin did not have a hands-on role in the making of the album. Apparently, he was simply asked to listen to it and provide his opinion. Read an excerpt from the interview below.
“The point of me being in the commercials was that he was filming a documentary and he asked me—I imagine he’s just comfortable talking to me—to come listen to the songs with him and just talk about the songs. Just listen to it and talk about it, and that’s what we did. It was fun.
I liked what I heard, but it was a little difficult — after just coming from the Kanye sessions — to listen to Jay’s album, because they’re so different. I was in a very alternative and progressive headspace, and Jay’s record is a more traditional hip-hop record.”
