A series of secrete tapes were released that including Michael Jackson slamming family members.

The tapes revealed Michale being heard calling his brother Tito Jackson a “grease monkey.” He also said “He is into the anatomy oh how a car is built. He still goes to the hobby shop and buys airplanes and flies them. That is so boring.”

His brother Tito wasn’t the only one Michael talked about. He went on to say that his eldest brother Jackie was a “downer who approaches everything with so much negativity and doubting.”

He then continued to talk about his brother Jermaine. He called his brother a “womanizer who dumped his first wife, Hazel, after a fling with another girl and lacked the drive to become a solo act.” Michael said that Jermaine would either be looking at girls or going along with the jokes.”

The list continues. He went on to say his brother Marlon was “ugly and a copy-cat who constantly imitates me on stage.” Michael said that Marlon looked too ‘doo woppy’ and so old fashioned. When it was time for Michael to talk about his youngest brother, Randy Jackson, he said that randy was always trying to be the ‘macho’ man. His sister Latoya Jackson was “Mrs. Nice and Nasty.” Michael called Latoya very lazy.

Lastly, when it came to his superstar sister Janet Jackson, Michael said that he was betrayed by his sister after she married producer James DeBarge. He said “it kills me that she moved out of the family home. We did everything together and were just alike. We would write a whole schedule for the day and follow it. It’s a horrible loss.”

These claims reportedly came from a ghost writer who helped Michael create his autobiography. He concluded the session with saying “I am the captain of my ship.”
