When Oprah wants to talk, even the Jacksons make an exception. The queen of talk recently visited the Jackson family compound for an interview that will air this Monday, November 8th. Jackson family matriarch Katherine Jackson will open up about her son Michael Jackson’s life as a child star and his untimely death in June 2009. Oprah also gets an intimate glimpse into the fiercely protected lives of MJ’s children; Prince, 13, Paris, 12, and Blanket, 8. Oprah also gets a glimpse at how MJ’s children’s lives have been transformed since their father’s death — for one, they no longer wear masks in public, and they attend “regular” school. Their grandfather, Joe Jackson, will also appear on the show. True to her word, Oprah is bowing out of her show with a bang. We can’t wait to see this episode.
