JOE JACKSON'S WAY TO THE LEFT INTERVIEW ABOUT MJ

Joe Jackson, father (and slave driver) of the late Michael Jackson, walked the red carpet at last night's BET Awards.

He stopped to talk to CNN's Don Lemon. Good. But, we are thinking he should of kept on walking because this interview is part uncomfortable, part comedy.

Everyone wants to know how he and the family are dealing with the sudden loss of his son. So, instead of telling us, Joe brought his publicist into the the shot to read his statement about how he and his family are coping. Weird.

But the hilarity doesn't end there. He also brought his attorney into the fray to add his two cents. And oh, lets not forget: Joe Jackson took the time to plug his new record label. And he brought his business partner into the interview too.

I know we all deal with grief in differently. I ain't never see someone use their grief in this kind of way before.
