Michael Jackson anger over Eminem video; BET Cuts Video About Jackson

LOS ANGELES (Eminem Fans Website) - Michael Jackson is reportedly planning to sue controversial rapper Eminem over a portrayal of the King of Pop in the latter's new video Just Lose It.
In the video, a Jackson lookalike is portrayed doing a Billie Jean dance routine, with hair on fire and surrounded by young boys.
The song includes lyrics such as 'Come here little kiddies on my lap' and 'I've done touched on everything but little boys/ That's not a stab at Michael/ That's just a metaphor.'
The video also sends up Madonna, Pee Wee Herman and MC Hammer.

"The Jackson family feels the video is demeaning and disrespectful. Michael is very displeased and doesn't want it shown," a source stated. "The entire video is a send-up of Michael Jackson. Michael is very upset and is going crazy over it. Don't be surprised if he sues over this."
"It's untimely and, quite frankly, outrageous. What was Eminem thinking?" Jackson's spokesperson Raymone Bain said. "I don't think he would want anyone to treat him that way, particularly as a father. I think he should reconsider what he's done."

Responding to complaints from Michael Jackson's camp, the BET cable channel on Tuesday removed the controversial video for Eminem's new single, "Just Lose It," from its broadcast mix.
The video, which began running on BET and other music channels last Tuesday, directs pointed jabs at Mr. Jackson.
Asked for Eminem's comment on BET's action, Dennis Dennehy, a spokesman for the performer's record label, Interscope, said, "We are sorry that BET made this decision."
