The youngest child of the famous Jackson Family has some exciting news! Although JohVonnie Jackson has yet to announce a release date…She has assured us that her book “Bastard Child” will be released soon.

Here is an excert from her book.

“Yeah, I’m Joh’Vonnie Jackson, bastard child of the infamously irascible Joseph Walter Jackson, half-sibling to Rebbie, Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, LaToya, Marlon, Brandon, Randy, Michael and of course Janet. And these are the chronicles of the 11th Jackson, half-damned and half-blessed.” -excerpt from Bastard Child”

In all, Bastard Child aims to accomplish a few things for the reader. It shares an unknown story of the infamous Jackson family. It allows Joh’Vonnie Jackson her space and her time living out of the shadows and finally the opportunity to be able to tell her story. And lastly, it works to help all of those out there in need of support and to inspire others with their unique struggles to come forward and live life truly and authentically.

This is the book cover for “Bastard Child”

JohVonnie has lost a lot of weight in preparation for her upcoming book release.

In the wake of all of the racial tension amongst police and citizens, it’s refreshing to have “good cops” highlighted. 

About a year ago, activist and rapper Michael Render aka “Killer Mike” was the first celebrity to bring attention to Officer Tommy  Norman of the North Little Rock, Arkansas police department. Officer Norman has been in law enforcement for 18 years and takes a non traditional approach to community policing. Norman has a personal relationship with the members of the community. He has a trunk full of goodies for community members to enjoy.

Recently, many other celebrities have noticed Officer Norman and shouted him out via social media. Rapper The Game’s son noticed Officer Norman and launched a go find me campaign which has received over $70,000 in donations. The money will be used to provide more snacks and goodies for the community.

Officer Norman urges others to reach out to their local police departments in order to help their own communities. In addition, Norman has showcased his fellow officer in blue Officer Kasey Knight. Both officers do an excellent job at “humanizing the badge.” 

FYI, both of these officers have African American significant others!

Earlier this year Shawn Jackson (cousin of MJ) took on the role as a surrogate father to Andre Vann and even started working on an album together. The two have been spotted hanging out together and Jackson had publicly declared Vann as a family member. What a difference some months have made. Shawn and his wife Bertha recently made a video stating that they want nothing to do with Vann and that they were “conned” by him.

This comes to a surprise because Shawn was one of Vann’s main supporters and has made several videos for which he clamed Vann as a family member.

Tanisha Rodney aka Tanay Jackson has also been a huge supporter of Vann. In a recent interview with DTF Radio, Rodney also claims that she wants nothing to do with Vann anymore. Rodney claims to be the daughter of Tito Jackson.

It seems like the only Jackson that still supports Vann is 2nd cousin LaToya Jackson McCall.
