The Jackson family today unveiled the statue that will adorn the grave of the fallen King Of Pop. The hand-carved stone statue depicts a younger, fitter Michael Jackson mounting what appears to be a young white male over a bed, presumably at the Neverland Ranch.
The entire Jackson family attended the gala event, which was taped for a special commemorative DVD and merchandising campaign to be released later this month. The accompanying three disc audio set will include the many musical numbers performed at the unveiling, including another reunion of the remaining Jackson Five members singing “My Sharona.”
Several child abuse groups also attended the unveiling in protest over the blatant depiction of anal sex with a minor in the life-sized statue. A tearful Tito Jackson addressed the demonstrators, telling them that Michael, “was a gentle soul who loved children and would never hurt them very much.” He also added that this statue is a fitting memorial to the late King of Pop, and would be “just what my brother would have wanted.”
When asked for a comment on the controversy, patriarch Joe Jackson defiantly stated, “Who gives a shit? We’re Jackson’s. We can do what we want, when we want.” He then mentioned a deal with Sony involving his fledgling record label.
The statue will be open to the public next month.
