La Toya Managing Michael's Kids (photo courtesy ftw1086@flickr / March 5, 2013) |
LaToya Jackson is ready to make some money off her dead brother’s children. According to the New York Post, LaToya, who is currently appearing on All-Star Celebrity Apprentice, has signed Michael Jackson’s three children, Prince, 16, Paris, 15, and ten-year-old Blanket, to her new talent agency and is acting as their manager, which means she’ll get 15% of whatever they earn. (They are her only clients.) Although her brother was fiercely private about his kids, LaToya is hoping to exploit them, and is already shopping a reality show featuring the trio, with Oprah Winfrey’s OWN network interested to the tune of $10 million. Prince seems to be the first to land a career in showbiz. He’s already worked as a correspondent for Entertainment Tonight, and will appear on an upcoming episode of 90210. Paris is expected to shoot her first film later this year. LaToya has denied all the allegations. "La Toya nor her company represent any of MJ’s children in any legal capacity nor has she received any commissions or payment as a result of their individual ventures,” read a statement from her publicist. “Furthermore, there is no shopping of a reality show for the children... LaToya is currently consulting with her attorneys on how to proceed against these false and derogatory statements made by The NY Post and other participating publications.”
