EXCLUSIVE VIDEO INTERVIEW: Michael Jackson Honored At Dancing With The Stars
Jackson said Michael’s kids are big fans of the weekly ballroom competition, and were watching the show -- which included a classy tribute to their late father -- at home with their nannies and Jermaine’s children.
He said the family aims to "instill the right values and morals" into the trio of kids, picking up where Michael left off.
"Michael was very strong with them, very straightforward, he didn't just give them anything," Jermaine said. "He disciplined them in a way they'll understand [that] you have to work hard to achieve anything."
When RadarOnline.com's Tina Malave asked Jermaine if Michael’s children were interested in becoming entertainers, Jermaine said they were "very, very much" likely to pursue film careers in the future.
Along with Jermaine, Michael Jackson's mother Katherine and sister LaToya were spotted in the audience; absent from the festivities were sister Janet and father Joe. Fans of the family will be happy to learn that their reality TV show, according to Jermaine, is currently in working stages.
Dancing With The Stars airs Monday at 8/7c and Tuesday at 9/8c on ABC.

Katherine is too old to raise these kids, she is letting her other kids pimp the paps for money. She is no saint in all of this.

Well hopefully he, Joe, Arnie and Debbie dies before his mom, Janet or Rebe and Grace... because if they don't and the others do ... I feel very bad for those kiddies .... and their trust fund money.

MIchael Jackson only liked his mother. He knew his brothers all were trying to live off him. He kept those kids far away from his family. And the more his family speaks, the more we know he was right to do so
