Randy Jackson Angry With Parents Katherine and Joe Over Upcoming Oprah Interview

Filed under: News

Randy Jackson is outraged that his parents Joe and Katherine (pictured below) allowed talk show diva Oprah Winfrey inside their compound for an exclusive interview. Winfrey and her camera crew interviewed the heads of the famed Jackson clan and even toured their Encino, California home, but Randy insists that his late brother Michael would not have welcomed the invasion.

Randy, the youngest of the Jackson brothers, claims that his parents failed to inform him about the interview. Randy states that if he would have gotten wind of the meeting, the singer-musician admits he would have tried his best to put the brakes on the plans.

What will forever live vividly in Randy's mind is Oprah's show on pedophilia during Michael's jury deliberation process in the Santa Maria case. Michael faced charges of child molestation, kidnapping, and conspiracy charges in a trial that attracted an obsessive degree of public attention which lasted weeks. Randy insists that the daytime gab queen calculated the airing of that particular show to coincide with his brother's trial.

The entertainer, who only three months ago suffered a mild heart attack, took to Twitter Tuesday night to let off some steam about the yet unscheduled Oprah/Jacksons interview:

"i know every 1 wants to know my position on the Oprah interview...1rst let me say that i love my mother and father. i am humbly grateful to have them as my parents... but i don't always agree with the choices they make. this is 1 of those times...i found out Oprah was at our family home, my stomach ached and it still hasn't gone away. "

"i had no prior knowledge this was going to happen. it was deliberately kept from me because they knew i would have tried to stop it...I know how Oprah feels about my brother and family. i also know that he would not have wanted this... in fact, she is the last person on earth he would want around his children."

The air date of the show has not been decided nor has any release been made of the questions that were asked of the Jackson family matriarch and patriarch.
