The Jackson Kids To Appear On CBS
Michael Jackson's nieces and nephews will appear on TV to defend him against child molestation charges and drum up sympathy for their embattled family, CBS News says.
The Jackson kids - Jermajesty, 4, Jaafar, 8, 12-year-old twins Randy and Donte, and Genevieve, 14, will appear on the network's "The Early Show" on Thursday and Friday.
The children, whose dads are Michael's brothers Jermaine and Randy, say they are teased at school and hurt by publicity about their uncle's criminal case.
"They know inside that my uncle is innocent. So they just want to tease us to be cruel, because they're not happy with themselves," Genevieve told CBS.
"Us kids, you know, we get hurt from that because that's our uncle," Genevieve told CBS. And Jackson's nephew Donte complained about some media referring to his uncle as "wacko."
Jermaine Jackson says he hopes the kids will help the family's image. "We are just like any other family. We are like the Brady Bunch, but we're the Jackson bunch."
The kids' TV appearances are the family's latest attempt to help Michael. Last month, the singer's famous siblings showed up at his court hearing.
