Janet Jackson "devastated" by Michael's death
In a statement released to Access Hollywood on Friday, Janet’s manager said the songstress is “devastated” by the sudden death Michael, who died at the age of 50 on Thursday.
“Janet Jackson is grief-stricken and devastated at the sudden loss of her brother,” her manager Kenneth Crear said in a statement to Access.
Many of Michael’s family — including sister LaToya and Brother Jermaine — gathered at the UCLA Medical Center on Thursday afternoon after the King of Pop was transported via ambulance from his Holmby Hills home in Los Angeles.
