Janet, dressed for the occasion. I'm not a celeb so, designer names wouldn't be my first priority and mean anything to me if I had lost a loved one in my family?

Calling Ms V could be a big deal if you're not in the J. Jackson zip code and inner circle. Those that can have accomplished something and there's nothing wrong with networking. However, you have bigger fish to fry. But, don't feel to badly there is help for you. You could try speech therapy and if that doesn't work there's always public school, grades one through six should resolve some of your problems. Good Luck with that.

See, this is the kind of stuff that kept MJ angry with the media. Who care's what label of clothing that the Jackson's wore. Why is that significant? What does that have to do with his death? The media is constantly picking apart everything that this family does or not. Michael never had a life without the media constantly in his face all the time. They speculated and reported every little thing whether it was true or false. They had to have their nose in every aspect of his life even down to whether or not he had sex with his wives. Somethings are none of their business. Everyone is entitled to their privacy. I don't see how at the end of the day, some of the things they want to know or try to report has any benefit to them except they just have to have something to gossip about all the time.

Sabrena... I have nothing else to say, you have said everything. One thing about life is that, either good or bad; people must talk. there is no holiest man or woman on this earth. Everyone should mind his or her own biz so go take care of your own family first. They are putting on black that is all i see.

Can we not give the Jackson family a break on anything? You must remember that celebs do live in a different world than most of us. Of course, Janet would call for help from someone that she respects. I thought they all looked very classy!
Next we will be asking them what they had for breakfast, and other things that are so meaningless. This "stuff" has got to stop..though in my gut I know that it won't. Vultures always

Wow. Now we are talking about what they wore? They just lost a son, brother, uncle, cousin etc. It is so hard to get dressed for any funeral but even harder when you are related to or close to that person. I have always loved the Jacksons but now that my fave Jackson is gone. LET EM BE!! Michael is KING!!

Being in the spotlight of having everything you do critique as a professional you leave trivial things to the qualitfied professionals. Versace obviousely was the qualified professional that could handle the detail of clothing and leave the family to grieving the loss of there brother. I am thankful Bersace came through with flying colors as the media will hurl the photo's around the world in attemp to get paid.
RIP MJ your presence will be missed. My heart goes out to the Jackson family.
