While many across the world are mourning Joe Jackson, who died this week after battling terminal cancer, Bette Midler isn’t.

The 89-year-old Jackson family patriarch was renown for his iron-handed approach to honing his children into household names; a reality achieved several times over with the career successes of the Jackson 5, as well as Michael Jackson and Janet Jackson as soloists. All artists he managed at pivotal points.

Still, his tactics rendered him a polarizing figure in life and seemingly in death too. Because, Midler took to social media to weigh-in and had less than favorable things to say.

Iggy Azalea is looking to scorch with new project ‘Surviving The Summer.’

The EP serves as the Aussie rapper’s first body of work since her debut album ‘The New Classic,’ which arrived four years ago. Sophomore effort ‘Digital Distortion’ ultimately went unreleased amidst label drama.

Music is very much where the mind is, though and Azalea recently announced that single ‘Kream’ will serve as the first taste of ‘Summer.’
