Jackson Denies ‘rift’ between he and family members

…Also Friday [Feb 6 2004], Jackson issued a brief statement denying rumors he said recently surfaced that a “rift” has developed between himself, members of his family and the Nation of Islam, whose members have been providing him security. “Let me state for the record, this is not true. There is no ‘rift,'” Jackson said. “If my friends love me as much as they’ve indicated, then they’d do me a great favor by not being so eager to air their personal concerns about me in the media, which will avoid causing me further embarrassment,” he added. :nav Source: [url=http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=487&ncid=762&e=2&u=/ap/20040207/ap_en_ot/michael_jackson]yahoo news[/url] :nav [url=http://forum.mjeol.com/index.php?showtopic=13892]Your Comments?[/url]
