He’s so outraged that he has resorted to using his Twitter account to state that the upcoming auction of brother Michael?s memorabilia by Julien’s Auction House in Los Angeles is in some way bad taste, whilst ignoring the horrifyingly repugnant nature of the chavvy diamond-encrusted self-aggrandising tat that is actually for sale.
He Tweets: “I was in the process of expressing how distasteful it is for Julien Auction House 2 (to) hold an auction on the day my brother passed”.
Admittedly the timing is somewhat unfortunate, but the explanation from Julien?s is that ?We have the same summer auction (of pop star memorabilia) at the same time every year.”
Which is surely fair enough and they're as unhappy about the unwanted additional publicity as the rest of us.
It is not known if Randy Jackson was also referring to the auction?s location at the prestigious Planet Hollywood clip-joint burger bar.
Items up for auction consist of absolutely hideous mank that no sane person would ever want in their home, including a life-size Lego Darth Vader and ? honestly – a replica of Han Solo frozen in that carbon stuff at the end of the rubbish Empire Strikes Back. Which will never ever look good as a fireplace ornament.
It is currently understood that the auction will go ahead and idiots with too much money and no understanding of the word ?distasteful? will attend.

No, you have crossed two distinctly separate auctions here in your article. The items you refer to were part of the auction that Michael Jackson did have stopped that was originally set to go on in April of 2009. The one that Randy recently tweeted about is not the same. Julien’s auctions is having a Music Icon auction this year on the anniversary of his death, which they apparently do every year, in Vegas. For some reason, Randy led fans to believe that the items up for auction WERE the same as those stopped in 2009 by Michael himself. One can only wonder why exactly as the items in the catalogue are mostly items given to others by Michael and are therefore not his. Maybe he did this due to the Jackson 5 items included instead? At any rate, he thought that tweeting to the Michael Jackson fans hanging on every word any Jackson has to say until justice is served, if it ever is, for Michael Jackson would get them riled up enough, and it did because they vowed to launch a bid against the auction at Julien’s, to get it stopped. Again, one has to wonder why exactly.
