VP Kamala Harris Shuts Down Rumors About Janet and Michael Jackson: ‘It’s Not True’
Share

In an interview with Charlamagne Tha God on Tuesday, October 15, Vice President Kamala Harris cleared up rumors about her involvement with Michael Jackson’s legal issues and any tension with Janet Jackson.
With Election Day coming up, Harris has been focusing on connecting with Black voters, and the conversation took an interesting turn when Charlamagne brought up the topic.
“There’s a rumor that Janet Jackson is mad at you because you prosecuted her brother, the late Michael Jackson. Can you clear that up?” Charlamagne asked.
Harris quickly shut down the rumor, saying, “That’s just not true,” as both she and Charlamagne laughed. She added, “On both counts.” When asked if Janet was upset with her, Harris said, “I don’t know. I haven’t spoken to her. But the part about her brother is definitely not true.”
For context, Michael Jackson faced serious charges in 2003, but Harris, who was San Francisco’s district attorney from 2004 to 2011, explained she wasn’t involved in his case.

“Well, you know what they supposedly said? She’s not Black,” Jackson claimed. “That’s what I heard. That she’s Indian.” However, when corrected about Harris’ mixed heritage, Janet doubled down on her stance, leading to more confusion and controversy.
The rumor may have come from a recent interview where Janet Jackson wrongly claimed that Harris’ father is white. “They said she’s not Black. That she’s Indian,” Janet said. Even after being corrected, she stuck to her statement, causing confusion.
“Her father’s white. That’s what I heard,” Janet continued. “I haven’t watched the news in a few days, but I was told they discovered her father was white.”
Adding to the confusion, a man named Mo Elmasri, who said he was Janet’s manager, put out a statement saying her comments were based on “misinformation.” However, Janet’s representatives told Variety that Elmasri wasn’t authorized to speak for her and no longer worked for her.
Harris used the interview to firmly set the record straight, putting to rest the rumors about her and the Jackson siblings as the election nears.
