Joe Jackson and Taina at the Video Music Awards in New York (9/13)
It's official. Nothing Joe Jackson does anymore surprises me. Joe's selling autographed pictures of Michael's casket on eBay? OK sure, sounds reasonable. From the New York Post:

It's official. Nothing Joe Jackson does anymore surprises me. Joe's selling autographed pictures of Michael's casket on eBay? OK sure, sounds reasonable. From the New York Post:
Joe Jackson raised eyebrows by bringing a curvy new recording artist he manages as his date to the VMAs on the night honoring his son, Michael. Jackson arrived at Radio City Music Hall with a singer known as Taina. But Jennifer Lopez was not amused when Jackson introduced her to his date, who was wearing an eye-popping dress. As they took their seats, J.Lo was spotted giving Marc Anthony a look as if to say: "What is Joe doing?"Does Joe Jackson ever stop trying to make money off of his children? Clearly the next step is to get a sponsor for Michael's tombstone. "Michael Jackson's grave, brought to you by the new Ford F150 -- Built Ford Tough." The bottom line is that when honoring the life of your recently deceased son, it's probably not such a good idea to bring a painted-up hussy as your date. Try bringing someone who won't draw as much unwarranted attention when in the spotlight -- like Kanye West or Rep. Joe Wilson.
Other guests at the awards said they were surprised Jackson chose to bring the busty singer rather than wife Catherine to see Janet's tribute performance to his son. One said: "It was a night to honor Michael. Some people thought it was strange he brought a singer as his date. There's a time to work the media, and there's a time to stay quiet and respectful."
