Jermaine Jackson criticizes brother Michael Jackson
In front of the cameras, Jermaine Jackson has always been a staunch defender of his brother Michael Jackson. But behind the scenes, Jermaine saw things differently.
Before Michael died, Jermaine wrote a book proposal about Michael. The title of the book was going to be “Legacy.”
MSNBC obtained excerpts from the book proposal written by Jermaine.
Jermaine wrote “”My brother is not what the world thinks he is; he’s not what we’ve always told you he was either. My brother is a superstar, yes. My brother is wealthy. He owns shares in Sony music. He drinks, he does drugs, he lies, he cheats, he changed his skin color and mostly, he’s human.”
Of course, Jermaine has no plans of releasing the book now that Michael has died.
Jermaine was originally the lead singer of the Jackson 5 until Michael took over in 1968.
Jermaine pursued a solo career after the group disbanded, but he never reached the level of musical success as Michael.
Also, Jermaine released a song in 1991 titled “Word to the Badd,” where he criticized Michael in the lyrics.
Maybe Jermaine was telling the truth in his book proposal, or maybe he exaggerated because he was jealous of Michael stealing the spotlight from him, or maybe it was sibling rivalry.
Too bad we won’t get to read the entire book.

Jermaine sadly must be very jealous of Michael and what is even sadder for Jermaine is that he will never be Michael not even on his best day! His jealously will eat him up! Michael couldn’t even trust his brother, that is probably why Jermaine introduced Michael to Dr. Tohme Tohme so that he could help destroy Michael for Jermaine. The more I learn about the truth, the more I realize that God had to take Michael up to heaven with him to protect him for all the evil people including his own brother! Poor Poor Michael really couldn’t trust no one and he was so kind, loving, genuine, and trusting…….it just isn’t right! Well the world will always love Michael and Jermaine will never be able to hold his socks will alone fill his shoes………he couldn’t even put together a tribute for his brothr and do it right, he had to cancele it. Jermaine should learn from that!!!! We all will always love you Michael so rest in peace!!!

That’s so weird that he would have the book and then choose not to release it after Michael’s death. Not to be rude, but it’s not like he’s going to hurt Michael’s feelings now. He should put the book out still. I bet he eventually will.
