    My assistant, (1 year), tells me she went to the BET awards Sunday, her boyfriend is in law enforcement and I guess got a ticket for her. So we were talking about MJ's dad, Joe Jackson, and she said how embarassing he is.

    Then she says, "you know, they were raised JW." Then she proceeds to tell me she studied and married a JW, and was involved with the JW's for 18 years, never baptized. She couldn't take it anymore and left. So I told her I was raised in, and left a few years ago.

    Really a small world. Her ex's family were in the music industry, I think she said her MIL was a backup singer for several groups, including Aretha Franklin. She knew the Jacksons, especially Rebbie.

    I proceeded to "anti-witness" to her. Boy...small world.

    Yeah, it is. My hubby used to do costume design and styling in the music industry, would go down to LA quite a bit. Met and hung out with folks how knew and work with the Jacksons, did a little bit of work for Janet and was a round Jackie a little bit...said he was a big jerk.
