Michael Jackson‘s sister, LaToya, took to the stage at the Muz-TV Awards in Russia last night to perform a tribute to the late, great King of Pop, along with a host of Russian artists.
Like I’m sure many of you did when you saw the headline, I’m giving this one a side-eye and a half. In any case, check out the performance below…
Oh LaToya! While it wasn’t atrocious, it was rather cringe-worthy, particularly with LaToya being known for everything other than performing – prior to MJ’s passing.
Unlike many, I actually like LaToya, and feel – despite her crazy-ass antics towards MJ all those years back – that she has turned over a new leaf. That said, in continuing his legacy, perhaps should pick up where he left off with his charity work, as performing is clearly the forte of her brothers and of course Janet.

Were they all doing bad lip syncing, or is the video and audio off? I can’t tell…Either way the whole thing was very american idol meets bad karaoke, I lol’d at the guy who poped up at the 3:40 mark.
What the fudge is this!!!! Latoya Latoya Latoya, look what you’ve done. Can’t get past the second chorus. These children what perpose do they serve not singing and not adding to the atmosphere, have they not seen the video it was things dying, doesn’t need kiddies there. First girl i don’t get her accent it was like she was gonna be a good singer and then she opened her mouth. second guy wtff, needs to get a haircut for a start. 2nd girl was a no no she looked like Carol Vorderman, thought she might announce her return to countdown. And then there’s Latoya, you just look at her face and she looks like she’s forgotten the words, and that was when she was supposed to be umming and ahhing. She stood there like last years Rihanna and Leona, stiff as s***.
LaToya is just a mess. I can’t help but laugh and feel sorry for her.
OMG just saw john barrowman pop out at 3.40 and i don’t like it. What is the point of Latoya, she does like a line gets overshadowed by worse people and mimes. Disgrace
Those other singers were GETTTTINNN it!…..just smh @ what they (the jacksons) did to their faces & skin. but overall it was pretty solid*
I loved it!! You can tell MJ was trying to get a message across. “What About Us” really says it all no matter who’s singing it. Great job
SAM HAVE YOU SEEN THIS?!?! LOLOLOL

Letoya was on Big Brother over here and seemed like a really sweet woman but unfortunately like all her siblings (except Janet & Rebi) she has to keep using MJ for a shot at the limelight.
No offence but her face doesnt even look human anymore, its like something from the planet of the apes =S
Also XTina’s {BIONIC} album has officially Debuted at No1 on the UK album charts! 🙂 🙂 🙂
I LOVED IT. I applaud La Toya for all her efforts of keeping MJ’s legacy alive and strong. MJ loved her so i love her too although she can be annoying at times.
It looked as if most of them were lip syncing but it was still a touching performance.
Miss you Michael ♥
Make me miss Michael all the more. LaToya never could sing.
Oh pulease!!!! *Tunes in to Youtube for Michael’s videos*
PLEASE Check out my version of ‘Earth Song’…..a DUET with Michael Jackson http://www.twiturm.com/NajSinger. Plz feel free to comment if ya like it!
IM NOT EVEN GONNA WATCH THIS. IM PRETTY SURE SHE LOOKS A HOT F****** MESS. AND IM ALSO PRETTY SURE SHE’S LIP SYNCHING WHILE STILL SOUNDING LIKE SHE’S TONE DEAF.
LATOYA STILL DOESN’T F****** GET IT. SHE WAS NEVER TALENTED AND NEVER WILL BE. SHE WAS ONLY RELEVANT BECAUSE PEOPLE THOUGHT SHE WAS THE PRETTIEST SISTER (THAT’S UNTIL SHE F***** UP HER FACE LIKE MIKE) NOW SHE’S TRYING TO SING HIS SONGS. WHAT A HORRENDOUS FAMILY. THE ONLY PEOPLE IN THAT FAMILY I SORT OF RESPECT ARE JANET & REBBIE. THE REST CAN F*** RIGHT OFF. THEY HAVEN’T BEEN RELEVANT IN DECADES AND STILL KEEP LEACHING OFF OF MJ’S NAME. HIS DEATH HASN’T CHANGED MUCH. PATHETIC. LATOYA, GO BACK TO DOING PLAYBOY OR SITYOURASSDOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lafoolish needs to stop. Nothing she does will ever matter. She was only good at being a video girl (Say Say Say, The Way You Make Me Feel). She couldn’t sing, was a mediocre dancer, and talked s*** on her entire family in the early 90s. I don’t care if she was “forced” or “abused” into saying the s*** she said. I still don’t trust her or her motives & think she played a heavy role in MJ’s misery. Soon as he died, she was on TV talking about him being murdered & all this other sensationalist garbage. Latoya and Jermaine Jackson are EVIL!!!!!!!!!!! Just like their father Joe.
Sing Toya!!!!!!
I like latoya, she seems sweet and michael forgave her for the past so i don’t hold a grudge against her. the performance wasn’t bad, i wish she’d do something different with her hair.
I didn’t think Latoya was absolutely amazing but she wasn’t dreadful either.
Latoya aside, it’s nice to see people from the otherside of the globe appreciating MJ’s legacy.
I’m confused. His siblings say they want to CONTINUE HIS LEGACY, but it has to make you wonder . And I agree with the first commenter, not good to try and duplicate your brother, the biggest music icon ever. Just don’t.
i love the earth song but i’m not watching this.
People please stop talking about MJ bleaching his skin, MJ had an autoimmune disease called Lupus, which manifested itself into vitalago. He had universal vitalago, which means that he had it all over his body, and the creams and procedures the doctors did, was to even out the process. MJ had this disease because of his childhood trauma. He didn’t just pop up and say that he wanted to be white, he had a diseease he couldn’t control. And the plastic surgeries he had on his nose , the first one was due to an accident he had, and the doctors made his nose slimmer. And the second one, he never mentioned why. Although people close to him said that he didn’t want to look like his father. MJ grew up in a household that by his accounts, his brothers and father would talk about his big nose, big lips, and dark skin. His father according to MJ, would say that he got his features from his mothers side not his. Coupled with Hollywood preference for white, MJ being a celebrity, and family teasing him, and his disease, one can understand why he didn’t like himself. I, think this was all about control, people knew he had low self-esteem, so if he continue to hate himself, he would have probably left home early, and went off and had a family early, thus distancing himself from his family that needed him. Joe and Katherine probably was unaware of the damage they caused him. And just blamed it on his massive celebrity, and blamed his massive insecurities on his fame.
Now Latoya, Latoya who was naturally pretty didn’t need her nose job, she was a naturally beautiful woman, so who knows why she did that. Now, I do know that her exhusband was abusive towards her, and beat her, now if she did go on to have procedures done, it could have been to repair the damage of the abuse. Now, the lightenign of the skin, well Latoya was never dark.
Now Janet, she admits to getting a nose job at 17 and recently admitted that she regretted having it done. Now, I do know that since the Jacksons lived in Enchino, and the people involved in their careers may have pushed them to have a more European/white persona/features inorder to sell records, have crossover appeal, and that years later they most likely regret this. Janet said that while she was dating Jermaine Dupri, she finally felt good about her body, because he was the only man that she had been with, that told her that her body was beautiful. She didn’t like her big b*** before. MJ when younger would called her donk, short for donkey, and cut out pics of women with slender frames hoping that would inspire her to lose weight.
Sadly, I believe that the Jacksons were so eager to be superstars that they just conform to the Hollywood values systems, in which European model was key for success. But, in later years they realized that it didn’t matter.
Despite what people think MJ and Janet were very proud of their blackness, just because they made money in the white world, doesn’t mean behind close doors weren’t black. They catered to the people who bought their products.
Latoya did ok to me!!!
GOd Lotoya you’re not a singer. Stop ruining the reputation of the jackson’s family.
La Dangerous has struck again.
Flammng ass hot mess! Jeeze I might to do a second blog about this, nah trick!
I’m not going to even watch this foolery! This is one of my favorite songs EVER and I just won’t allow Latoya, of all people, to get me viciously upset.
While I’m sure her said-reason for doing this is to tribute to MJ, I honestly think she is attempting to keep face in the public. It’s a shame that she and a FEW of her brothers are doing such things while saying that it’s for “MJ” which may be partly true. I mean WHY? MJ is the greatest artist and entertainer EVER and I mean EVER, so why is it necessary to keep forcing ish in relation to his life and/or death in the public? It’s completely unnecessary IMO. Janet was the last sibling to speak about his death, and she did her small tribute and went about her business. She’s grieving in a NON-public way. And sometimes you can still see the sorrow in her eyes. 🙁
All in all, Latoya should NEVER attempt to sing ANY of MJ’s songs! And she needs to go sit her raggedy ass down somewhere. LITERALLY!
What are you all complaining about???…Let the subjects and courtiers honour the damn king!!
She misses her brother and I feel sorry for her. Do your thing girl!
No LaToya cant sing very well…..but thats not the point…….well done to her for trying
…and continuing Michaels message…and true Mj fans will see that shes keeping Michael ‘alive’ and trying her best to continue Michaels msg..
Thank you LaToya for trying.! 😀
I love it Latoya did excellent she did great job I miss Michael a lot I love Jackson family with all my heart
“WAAAAAAA!? I DON’T GET IT!” -Christina Aguilera … That little dude at the end broke it down. Well when I could understand what he was sayin… But his pitch is ova!!!!!
@FATTDOLL
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO Too funny!!!!
nice latoya you think you will cover up the damages !!!
This bxtch sang like, ONE line and THEN all those other oddball singers took over. And PLEASE don’t get me started on that hype ass clown that came jumping out of the floor to sing Michael’s “cherry picker” part. There’s no way in HELL he was singing while jumping all around like a damn maniac. I’m no trained singer, but even I coulda done better than that. Hell, even the CROWD looked upset. Their excitement pretty much dried right up once they realized what was happening on the stage.
LaToya, you’ve R**** & MURDERED Michael’s song. SHAME ON YOU!
@ELLA SHUT THE F*** B**** YOU AINT RELEVENT NOBODY KNOWS WHO YOU ARE SO SHUT UP! AND ALL YALL TALKING ABOUT SHE CANT SING AND BLAH BLAH WHAT THE F*** CAN YOU DO! AT LEAST SHES MAKING IT ALL YALL WHO TALKING CAN S*** JUST SHUT THE F*** UP STOP WORRYING ABOUT THE JACKSONS STOP BEING HATERS AND SIT YOUR ASSES DOWN SOMEWHERE! TEAM JACKSON’S B******!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
