Subject: So...I met some Jacksons, FINALLY.
Written By: apollonia1986 on 10/31/22 at 5:39 pm
;D Hi y'all. I know I haven't been around in a long time, Long story, my health has been trash for a while. 8-P
But this past weekend, some friends of mine and I got to go to a Halloween party at Michael Jackson's house benefitting his son's charity and his nephew's charity.
I have ALOT of pics. (I met Prince Jackson, TJ Jackson, Taj Jackson, Frances Jackson Thayana Jackson, Royal Jackson and Little Dee Dee Jackson. Tito Jackson waved at us. I also met alot of MJ-adjacent people too. Some even knew me from social media.
I'll post one pic now cause I don't want to swamp this thread down and will add more if there's interest.

Me with Taj Jackson, the day before the party. I called him and asked if we could meet and he said sure. Met with my friends and me at a local Starbucks and even treated us to coffee. :) Sweet sweet man.

No, Prince is the oldest son and Bigi (Blanket) is the youngest one. (the one Michael held out the window that time)

Prince dressed as Peter Pan (his girlfriend was Tinkerbell) and I was a flapper. It's slightly blurry cause my friend was shaking as she took it.

Hey Tiff! I see you on FB, but good to see you post here. I myself don’t get on here too much cause of my own life problems.

I appreciate all the kind words and encouragement y'all. It's taken about 2/3 of my life to get to this point. But it was worth it.
A few more pics.

My friends with Taj--Tray, Taj, Me, April and Ebonie. (My friend Carol took the pic)
I almost had a stroke when Taj said "Let's take a pic with the braids" and pulled his hat off.

@Howard I've followed Carlo for years and almost jumped out my skin when he knew who I was. ;D He even knew I had met Taj the day before. We all think he's cool cause he met Michael in Japan a few years back. So that was a surprise. He's very cute in person.

My costume. Technically I was flapper, but after three different people asked if I was a dancer from Smooth Criminal I went with that. I saw 10 different flappers before the night was over. ;D

Me with Taj and his wife Thayana. He was a Teddy Bear and she was a Cyber Barbie with her sister (she's an identical triplet)

I did my own makeup took 3 hours. People kept asking who did it. Me! ::)

And one more funny pic. I spoke to this man near the red carpet and saw him filming around,. Had no idea he was a German fan and I was caught in one of his vlogs for a second. I was in awe of the main house.
