The dark side of the Netherlands – Michael Jackson’s daughter books Portuguese edition

Mocienne Petit Jackson’s (Michael Jackson’s daughter) books are now out in Portuguese! We learn about the problems she encounters with the Child Protection Services, followed by many court cases. At first, the court cases related to her own situation, later on they turned into a battle for her son. The one unacceptable situation followed yet another unacceptable situation. We also learn about the many traumatic events of the main character, her depressions and countless struggles to process the misery linked to her life and her strife to let it go. The writer clearly explains these struggles through vivid flashbacks. Mocienne follows the comings and goings of Michael Jackson from afar. These included his alleged child abuse, and the many court cases querying his person, his two failed marriages, his metamorphoses, the birth of his three children – and last but not least – his untimely death.

Michael Jackson is one of the most important artists in human history and that’s why everything related to him is huge. You maybe heard about the case of Mocienne Petit Jackson, called by the media the Michael Jackson’s secret daughter. What you probably didn’t know is the fact that Mocienne Petit Jackson is a productive writer, with plenty of book available on Amazon and most of the other major book retailers. Contrary to the implication that has been drawn by people of the international media, the L.A. County Superior Court did not reject the case of Mocienne Petit Jackson in 2010 on the grounds of the case’s validity. Instead, the request to validate Ms Jackson’s claim using DNA evidence from the deceased Michael Jackson was not granted due to the fact that the State of California does not possess the jurisdiction to conduct DNA tests on the deceased. As a result, the case has remained open indefinitely. The Court did not rule it as being impossible, therefore, that Michael Jackson is the father of Mocienne Petit Jackson—merely that it is impossible to determine through legal means. Ms Jackson filed documents to the probate court in July 2010 in order to validate the fact that the late pop star Michael Jackson is indeed her father and thus to claim an inheritance.

Ms Jackson believes that such misinformation has poorly informed the public both about her relationship to Michael Jackson, and about her motives for having taken the matter to court. Her autobiographical series, Thriller, documents her life and gives her assessment on the state of affairs. Additionally, due to the fact that her aunt Diana Ross has declined to provide the press with comment regarding Michael Jackson since his death, Ms Jackson believes that crucial insights about the story are being concealed from the public. As a result of this, Ms Jackson was prompted to write the second instalment of her three-part autobiographical series, Thriller: The Dark side of the Netherlands, which focuses on her life in the Netherlands as well as the context surrounding the court case.

Her life on Haiti was not what she expected – a normal family life. She came into contact with some very kind people but also with others who were not so kind. She experienced many things which were not meant for a child of that age. We relive those experiences with her as she describes them through the eyes of a young and vulnerable little girl. After moving to Port-au-Prince, her life changes dramatically. Not long after that it became a complete nightmare…

Ms Jackson also claims that her father had a tendency to exhibit unusual behaviour which she believes may have arisen from the knowledge that he had kept his daughter in secret since the age of seventeen years. Michael Jackson allegedly did not discuss the topic openly because it was difficult and frightening for him to come to terms with. At present, Ms Jackson is seeking to make a name for herself as her own individual. Thriller, for example, offers unique insights on her life by including stories concerning unusual and difficult situations that she experienced while living in the Netherlands. She argues extensively, for instance, that the harshness of the Dutch political system has had a significant impact on her character, and that by writing about it she can express a sense of frankness.

For our portuguese speaking readers :

Neste livro, a primeira parte da autobiografia dividida em três de Mocienne Petit Jackson, nós conhecemos a personagem principal, Mocienne. Nós lemos sobre as suas maravilhosas aventuras desde os seis até aos seus nove anos de idade. Ela viveu com o seu pai – Michael Jackson! – na Califórnia. Como ele não passava muito tempo em casa, ela estava sempre na companhia de uma ama. Contudo, uma ama estava sempre a ser substituída por outra. A Mocienne também ficava doente com regularidade. E o seu pai tomou uma importante decisão, a de a levar para o Haiti, para ir viver com uma tia – ele queria que ela fosse parte de uma família.

A segunda parte da autobiografia dividida em três partes de Mocienne Petit Jackson começa com uma extensiva descrição do rapto de Mocienne e da sua vida nos Países Baixos. Subsequentemente, nós lemos como se tornou a vida de Mocienne com a sua família adotiva – com a qual ela e a sua prima Délivrance ficaram. Gradualmente, ela descobre que o seu verdadeiro pai é o Michael Jackson. Aos 15 anos, ela deixa a sua família adotiva e passa a viver num internato, durante 4 anos, até arranjar um sítio próprio para si. Nós seguimos o seu trajeto desde o final da sua adolescência até entrar na idade adulta – que não foi fácil. Leia ou compre o livro aqui O Lado Obscuro Dos Países Baixos – Livro de filha de Michael Jackson.

Uma importante razão para escrever esta trilogia é que eu quero que o mundo saiba que eu não estou obcecada com a minha ligação de sangue ao Michael Jackson. Eu também quero deixar claro que compreendo perfeitamente o quão difícil deve ser para milhares de fãs aceitarem que eu sou filha dele. Com os meus livros, eu espero apresentar a possibilidade de que ele começou a mostrar um comportamento estranho porque ele tinha uma filha secreta desde os dezassete anos – uma situação difícil para alguém como ele!

A Sra. Jackson acredita que tal informação errada não tem servido para informar adequadamente o público tanto sobre a sua relação com o Michael Jackson como sobre os seus motivos de ter levado esta questão para tribunal. A sua série autobiográfica, Thriller, documenta a sua vida e dá a sua visão sobre esta matéria. De acordo com a sua visão, uma grande parte da cobertura da imprensa sobre esta matéria tem sido enganadora. Por exemplo, antes do falecimento do seu pai, em junho de 2009, Michael Jackson tinha vivido durante oito meses no hotel Amstel, em Amesterdão, de forma a estar perto do neto, então com nove anos de idade. Além do mais, a mãe da Sra. Jackson, Barbara Ross-Lee, irmã da cantora Diana Ross, alegadamente mentiu sobre alguma vez ter conhecido Michael Jackson durante uma entrevista num programa de televisão holandês, RTL.
