Posted on 31 October 2009
La Toya Jackson will celebrate Halloween night with a return visit to
West Hollywood hotspot Millions of Milkshakes on Saturday, October 31st
from 8:00pm - 11:00pm. After launching her own flavor of milkshake in
September with all of the proceeds going to AIDS Project Los Angeles
(APLA), La Toya will be serving ice cream and shakes to
trick-or-treaters, again donating all profits to APLA.
While Millions of Milkshakes is known for its many delicious desserts,
the "La Toya Jackson" milkshake consists of strawberries, raspberries,
caramel, topped with whipped cream and a Cadbury flake!
"I'm extremely excited to continue my involvement with APLA. I can't
wait to get behind the counter and serve the community - and I can't
wait to taste the La Toya shake again. It is very generous for Millions
of Milkshakes to support our goal by donating proceeds from the store to
such a great cause, I am very thankful to them!"
Millions of Milkshakes, located at 8910 Santa Monica Blvd, West
Hollywood, California, 90069, will donate proceeds from their signature
shop for the month of October to support this amazing promotion.

Posted on 10 September 2009
In
her first in-depth interview since the death of her brother Michael
Jackson, La Toya Jackson opened up exclusively to Barbara Walters about
the family's grief.
"I don't think we'll find a person as talented, a person who thought the
way he thought. A person with the heart that Michael had," La Toya, 53,
told Walters. "People aren't that way anymore. He was special. He wasn't
God, but he was certainly God-like. He was the closest thing to a god
that I knew."

P.M. Eastern Standard Time on ABC. She'll also appear on Access
Hollywood on Monday, September 14, 2009.
LA TOYA TO DO MORE PROMOTION FOR "HOME"
Posted on 9 September 2009
When La Toya decided to release "Home" as a tribute single to her
beloved brother Michael Jackson, she initially stated that she did not
want to do any promotion at all for the record. It was just too soon
after Michael’s death.
All
the proceeds from the single are donated to
AIDS
Project Los Angeles, a charity La Toya supports very strongly and
which was also very important to Michael Jackson. Because La Toya would
like to do as much as she possibly can for APLA, she is now ready to
promote the single.
Over the upcoming two weeks, La Toya will be appearing on the following
shows: Friday, September 11th at 10pm on
ABC’s 20/20 La
Toya will be interviewed by Barbara Walters, then La Toya will do a
sit-down with
Access Hollywood on the 11th which should air on the 14th, and then
La Toya will co-host
The View on the
16th & 18th of September. She will also be appearing on Larry King Live.
Church of La Toya and La Toya Online will announce the exact date(s) and
time(s) when they are confirmed.
The "Home" music video is now available to buy on most iTunes stores
worldwide. Make sure to show your support for La Toya and AIDS Project
LA buy spening just a bit of pocket change and buying either the song or
video - or better yet, both!
LA TOYA TO SIT DOWN WITH BARBARA WALTERS
Posted on 24 August 2009
La Toya will be doing an hour-long interview on Friday, September 11
with ABC's Barbara Walters. It will air on 20/20 at 10:00 P.M.
Eastern Standard Time.
As most of you probably know, the Los Angeles County Coroner had deemed
Michael's death a homicide, which was claimed by La Toya weeks ago. It
will be her first one-on-one interview since this news has broken.
Don't forget, she'll also be appearing on The View on September
16 and 18. And you can buy the "Home" music video on iTunes beginning

EXCLUSIVE NEWS: "HOME" MUSIC VIDEO, DIGITAL RELEASE & MORE!
Posted on 28 July 2009
We've
got some exclusive news straight from La Toya's manager, Jeffre
Phillips!
La Toya recorded her first music video in over 20 years on Sunday. The
clip was directed by Eric Bute and director of photography was Hollywood
veteran Reed Smoot.
La Toya had three costume changes for the video, all of which were
completely white ensembles, keeping with the theme of the single cover.
It was shot at the Golden Oak Ranch in Santa Clarita, California, which
is owned by The Walt Disney Company and frequently used for film
production. By the look of the photos that come
up on Google, the video may have a slightly Western theme.
Keep your eyes here for more details!

most downloaded song! Make sure to buy your copy today! Click

We're also excited for an upcoming project we're working on with a UK

LA TOYA: MICHAEL WAS MURDERED... I FELT IT FROM THE START
Posted on 9 July 2009
UK newspaper Daily Mail featured a very extensive interview
with La Toya today accompanied with a couple of never-before-seen
photos. You'll definitely want to read this article, especially if
you're a Michael Jackson fan:
"The grieving sister of superstar Michael Jackson last night blamed ‘a
shadowy entourage’ of manipulative hangers-on for effectively
‘murdering’ the King of Pop.
In a moving and revealing interview, La Toya Jackson, who was closer to
her vulnerable brother than anyone else and was asked to sign his death
certificate, portrayed Michael as a lonely and isolated figure at the
mercy of a money-motivated clique."
