Janet Jackson<\/a>‘s smack in the middle of a heated battle with her brother Jermaine Jackson<\/a>, and other family members, over the biopic, “Michael,” and the feud all comes down to envy … TMZ has learned.<\/p>\n One source closely tied to the family tells us, Michael Jackson<\/a>‘s siblings first got into it during a phone call on the heels of the whole family getting together in L.A. last week to screen the movie, which hits theaters next month.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n We’re told Janet was very critical of the film, while Jermaine loudly applauded. It’s worth noting Jermaine’s son Jaafar<\/a> stars as Michael … but their conflict appears to run deeper than just the movie. The source says, “Janet’s always been insanely jealous of Michael, and her career is in the toilet.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Janet — who is, by far, the second most successful Jackson — was the only person who reacted negatively after the family’s preview, according to our source … who added, even Janet’s boyfriend cheered and said, “Now that’s a movie.”<\/p>\n We’re told the other family members, including matriarch Katherine Jackson<\/a>, loved it … and Page Six<\/a> reported most of the fam is team Jermaine when it comes to the project.<\/p>\n Of course, the movie was produced by the Michael Jackson estate, but Janet did not participate … nor is she featured in the movie. Our source says Janet was offered an opportunity to join the production, but declined.<\/p>\n As for her being left out of the script … we’re told it would only have been a “bit role,” anyway.<\/p>\n We’ve reached out to Janet’s camp for comment … so far, no word back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Janet vs. Jermaine Jackson Raging Call After ‘Michael’ Screening … Source: She’s ‘Insanely Jealous!!!’ Published March 11, 2026…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":518014,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[57],"tags":[236,88],"class_list":["post-518013","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/518013","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=518013"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/518013\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/518014"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=518013"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=518013"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=518013"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"janet](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/3268c8ced1d94bb18e02802d77a93e37_md.jpg\")
