there. >> the prime time exclusive of how she has rebuilt her life. and a primetime world wide exclusive with the jacksons, jackie, jermaine, marlon and tito back on the stage together after nearly 30 years, and for the first time since their brother michael's tragic death. >> i think that the challenge of getting back to the stage would be something this the celebration of 40 years in show business. >> this is piers morgan tonight. good evening. we will get to my interview with the jacksons coming up. but with the summer olympics coming up in just a few weeks, one person knows how important the anti-doping screening will be is marion jones. she won in sydney, but lost it all in 2010 after being sent to prison. does that sound weird to you having your name associated with prison? because i remember the sydney olympics and you running like the wind and this incredible athlete, and you were so inspiring and brilliant, and when i have to even read those words, i feel bad. you know, never mind how you must feel. >> yes. gosh, how do you even put it in words? it has been now, you know, three years since i left prison, and it is still not easy to comprehe comprehend. i search for the right adjectives to describe, you know, who -- i certainly never would have thought ten years ago that my life would have taken the turn that it had, and that it has. and so, yeah, it is still hard when people describe, you know, my history and situation. it seems like it is somebody else, like you are not talking about me, but some other person. >> and there is such an extreme that you have had to endure. you have gone from champion, olympic champion, multiple olympic champion to felon. and the gap between those two positions in the public estimation, i guess in your own estimation is just so massive, isn't it? >> i think that people don't really -- it is hard for people to grasp the everything that happened. i think that when people saw me on television and then they meet me, they are like, how in the world can this all happen? but what i try to tell people is that, you know, anybody can make a mistake, and certainly mine was massive, and it was in the public eye, and i have been blessed with this ability to really communicate and connect with people, so people feel like they know me, and so when they have to talk about the situation, it is hard for them. when i travel, di wii will be h, when i travel people say i want to give you a hug and i feel bad for you. they don't know why, but they feel bad for me, so the journey has been a rough one, but i am happy to say that i'm finally at a place where i'm at peace, if i can -- if you can understand that. i made some horrible choices in my past. >> what was the single worst moment for you of the whole thing? when you look back. >> enp the single worst moment was sitting in solitary confinement on my boy's birthday and not getting a chance to talk to them or hold them or hug them and knowing not -- and people might be surprised by that. it wasn't having to give back my medals, and it wasn't the scandal, and it wasn't all that, and it was not -- but i think that disappointing the ones who loved me and cared for me and supported me and cheered me on knowing that i hurt them. that to me was the single, and it is what i deal with everyday. that doesn't go away. you know, i -- >> how have you dealt with that? you have two kids who were pretty young at the time. >> yes. one was turning 1 and one was turning 4. >> so too young to understand. >> yes. >> and even now, are they aware of what happened to you? >> no, they are not aware. we have been pretty open with my oldest who is 8 years old. sharing with him certain things, but they have -- they don't really understand. we planned certainly to be when we feel like they are ready to share certain things with them, and share the story with them, but in my household, we teach our kids that we all make mistakes, like mommy makes mistakes. i'm not an exception, but it is what you do after the mistake. you know, do you try to cover it up? you know, i made the unfortunate choice the try to cover it up, and i made things a lot worse. do you cover it up and then get mom and dad really upset with you or do you come to el the us what you did and we deal with it and move on so when i talk with young people now, that is what i tell them. okay. you are going to be make a mistake and be prepared, but do the right thing afterwards. >> and my attitude towards -- i have never met you before today, and it is probably like most people's, but having shared your dream, and this amazing olympic games that you have and then the terrible disappointment to find that, you know, for want of a better phrase you cheated in some way. what i'm curious about is what your emotional journey has been with yourself. >> yes. >> through that process. just tell me. >> wow. it has been a complete 360. you know, i certainly think that i got caught in a wave. that is how i describe all of this. i got caught up in the wave of fame and fortune and people telling me, patting me on the back, and telling me how great i was. and ignoring red flags. you know. >> how intoxicating is it, if you are the -- when i watch usain bolt right now, and he is so sublimely arrogant and he does the big bolt and also this incredible athlete. and you know he is loving every second, but you know that in itself can be dangerous. you have been in that position. how intoxicating is that? >> whew. incredibly. incredibly. the mistake that i made is that i surrounded myself with people that would only pat me on the back and tell me that everything that i was doing and saying was right. i distanced from people who would give it to me straight. like for example, my relationship with my mom, the one person who would give it to me straight and i knew she would, so i distanced myself. >> you didn't want to hear it. >> i didn't want to hear it. you don't want to hear that things don't look right. you want to go with the wave. it is a big mistake that i made. i tell young people, hey, you know, when you get advice from people, make sure it is people who is going to give it to you straight. >> you were how old when you won those medals? 23? >> yes, but even before then at the age of 15, i made the first olympic team, and you realize that when you are number one, more people want to talk to you. when you are number one, you make more money. and you become important. and that's who you become. and i realized while i was in prison in solitary in particular that being number one and being marion jones meant nothing in there. >> yeah, i mean, it is the reality check of all checks. >> well shgs s, it is an underst to say it was a humbling experience, but in the same breath, i have to say it was a blessing. it was a blessing for me. >> what did you learn about yourself? >> well, i realize that my priorities were totally out of whack. and that i had to figure out who i was and not marion jones, the super star athlete, the pretty smile, the charm and all that. who am i? why did i make the certain choices? and now more importantly, how do i move forward? and it forced me to figure out, you made some bad choices, but it is not over. things can and will get better if i don't just sit on my tail. >> and it has been a catastrophic episode for you over the last few years, but in a funny way, finding yourself may be something that you never would have done if you carried on being marion jones the super star. >> you are right. i agree with you 100%, it wouldn't have happened. it wouldn't have happened and i possibly could have been caught up in the wave that took me so far out that i couldn't get back. >> let's take a short break because i want to talk to you about when you were on the crest of the wave and what happened when the wave broke.

>> yes, it is. every time i have to speak about it, it is a form of healing, and you get to the point, and i think that a lot of people can relate to this, but when you carry such a burden for so long, and whatever it might be, a lie, a secret, when you are final able to let it all out, regardless of what the consequences may be, and in my case, they were certainly severe, and we knew that they were going to be. not as severe as they were, but it's total release. and i knew that i couldn't carry it any longer. i was married. i had a child. i was about to have another one. and i found myself telling my kid, telling my oldest son, you know, when you do certain things, you make a mistake, you move on, but then i turn around and i was not living it. i was being a hypocrite and when you have kids, as you know, things are clearer in your life and you realize that everything that you say and do can affect them, and in my case everything that you don't do or say, ap i could not live with that. i love my kid toos mus too much that. >> and how difficult was the conversation with your mother when you had to finally look her in the eye and say, it is true. >> truly thankful. because she was and still is my biggest support. and to know that you let down somebody who loves you regardless, and who loved me and loves me regardless of the fact that i turned my back was hard. it was hard. >> did you turn to her having rejected her in the way that you said you did, what was the moment that you turned back to her? >> not too long after i plead guilty. and it was simple. it was not anything very complicated, but is simple embrace and the whispered sound of my mom saying "i love you no matter what." so it was hard. it is painful, and even when i talk to her and i see her, and my family and my close friends, you know, i feel a sense of guilt for disappointing them. >> because your mother, i guess, had lived the great highs. >> yes. >> and had been like any mother would be, your daughter is a supreme olympic champion, and it is the american dreamt the finest. >> yes. >> and then it becomes a total nightmare. >> and as a mom, it is tough, because, she can't do anything about it. you know, that's -- i'm her baby and her baby is an adult and makes certain choice, and all she can do from a distance is pray and love on me as much as she can, but she can't do anything about it. and so i can only imagine as a mother, myself, that feeling. and i think -- >> was she angry with you? >> no. no, i mean, i think that throughout the journey and throughout everything, there are moments that she was angry, because she could see me making poor choices. and would share with me and that is why i think i started to become more and more distant. >> what is the most angry she got with you and the poorest choice that your mom thinks that you made? >> my relationship with men, and -- >> it has not been great. >> no, it hasn't, but third time is a charm. >> why were you attracted to the bad guys? >> you know, i think i saw something in them that perhaps that was lacking in h my childhood. as i mentioned, my mom was a single mom, and so my biological father was never part of my life. >> do you have any relationship with him at all? >> no, no. >> and so you were craving a kind of father substitute possibly? >> possibly. possibly. i -- i -- yeah, i think that is safe to say that. >> is he still alive your biological father? >> no, he has passed. >> do you have any feelings about that when you heard? >> i did. it was very emotional time for me simply because i got a call from the friend of his saying that he had passed, and he had not been in contact with me for 15 years, and then this friend tell tells me that, but he kept an album of all of my accomplishments. i went to the funeral and i sat on the front row of the church, and because i was the only, his only off sprispring and yet you people were getting up to speak about him saying that he was a father to them, and i could not say that, so it was really, really difficult for me to deal with all of that. so i am not saying that is the reason of poor choice in relationships, but possibly it contributed. >> but not having a strong male presence in your life and all of the pressure on your mom the bring you up and everything, it can't help, can it? it is not going to help. >> i certainly know from a young age, we realized that i was a blessed with so much talent and from an early age my mom has shared with me as she likes to call them the pariahs started coming out of the woodwork when they saw that there was a golden ticket in me. she is a single mom, and so they would come out of nowhere and say things about that. >> and it is like a shark pool, isn't it? >> yes. >> and you are the best bait in town, and it is the shark pool and they are all nibbling and wants a piece of the action. >> it is easy to protect when the child is at home, but by the time that the child is away from home and going off to college, how much protecting can you do? >> let's take another break, because i want to come back to talk to you about the moment that the door shuts in prison on that first night. how you were feeling, and then i want to go to happier times. >> yes, can we get there quick, please? >> we can get there reasonably quick. sweet!

>> like how did this happen? how in the world is my worst nightmare actually happening? >> you had gone from $80,000 a race, and i don't know what that is per inch, but it is a lot, right? and then suddenly, you are in a tiny cell and you are a felon. >> well, i think to put things in perspective, when i was a child i used to always want so bad for my name to be written in the paper for my accomplishments, of course. and my reality is now that i don't want it written in the paper, and sometimes it is tough being a celebrity, because when i walked into prison unlike most people who go to prison, i will tell you, because i don't think that you have any history of that, most people go unknown. i walked in, and everybody knew who i was, and there were helicopters circling, and there were photographers trying to jump the fence to get that picture. i walked past the tv room where the inmates watched television and my story is being played. i was there for almost six months. and there were nights that were extreme extremely hard missing my family. >> and your kids went to stay with your family in barbados. >> correct. >> they were protected in a sense, i guess. >> yes. >> but you weren't. you are on your own there >> yes, and some of the women would come up there and they had been in there 10 or 15 years and they hadn't had a visit or letter from a family member, and so sometimes at night when i would skri and be in this deep, deep place, i would say, you know what, marian shg marion, w acting like this when the woman down the hall has been in here for a decade, and no nobody interested in her, and she still gets up and you can do it. >> what about the goals, because you had still been a supreme athlete, and still so way far ahead of everybody else, you didn't need to do that. >> yes, from the age of 14 when i made the first olympic team, and for me the biggest issue was not asking certain questions and not asking the coach, well, what are you giving me? why, why? all of this? and i certainly felt, and will feel to this day that my god given ability would have taken me -- >> can i play devil's advocate with you, because i watched the oprah interview when you came out and the one jarring note with me is that you appeared to be in some slight denial about ever knowing anything might be slightly dodgey, and i don't think that people bought that. they thought, come on, marion, come on, you knew even if you were not asking questions, you knew enough about what was going on and your husband at the time was caught, and everybody was getting it, and you knew something was going on, so more of a case of, i won't ask any questions here, but in the back of my head, this is dangerous situation i am in. is that the honest truth? >> no, i won't agree with you in that regard. i think that because i know that i had, and people would say, well, you had to known something was going on, because you were just beating people by so much, and you were just annihilating people. but to me, that is what i have been doing ever since i was young. this is nothing happened during that time to tell me that i was giving or had been given something that would make me that much better. you know, when i was sentenced the judge said certain things during the two-hour proceeding saying that, you know, a top caliber athlete has to know. has to know certain changes in their body, and i had to zsit there and of course, and i had to listen, but the reality in my world and in my life is that i didn't see any changes. i didn't see any changes that would have alerted me to certain things, and yeah, i should have asked more questions. but i trusted my circle. you know, i surrounded myself with, i was in the bubble. i felt in my heart, you know, these people are not going to do anything to harm me. >> the president of the international association of athletic federation said in a statement, that marion jones will be remembered as one of the biggest frauds in sporting history, and i mean, that was incredibly harsh for him to say, but many people agreed with him at the time and you were forced to hand back the medals and that moment when you hand back the medals and you hear that guy say that about you and you are being branded to america, how did that make you feel? >> well, i didn't -- it was tough to hand back the medals certainly. but i think that a lot of people overestimate the hardware --ly be honest, to many, it is t me, memory. >> when the olympics start this summer, how will your emotions be dealing with that? are you able to deal with it in a measured way or do you still get the awful sense of what might have been? >> no, not at all. not at all. it is a -- i have good memories from my olympic experience. and i'm a fan of sport. i have passion for sport. i sit in front of the television with my kids, and we cheer on and we have our favorites. it is not a time that i have a somber time for me. >> and to any young american athlete who is in the squad who may be either using drugs or tempted to or believes it is the only way to wane gold medal, nobody better to ask than you. what advice would you give them? >> first of all, think about the consequences of the choices. before they make those decisions, take a step back and develop a message of take a break, take a break. >> i would ask you about this finally, because it is something that you are involved with educating young kids who may get a break about how to take it. >> yes. the big part is that it is not just young people, and anybody. you see all of the time in the news, ceos of companies who make a wrong choice, and if they had taken a break and stepped back and thought about it and got proper advice from the people who give it to them straight, and if they take a break and step back and think about the consequences of the choices, then they make better choices in their own lives. >> unfortunately, marion, i have never made a mistake in my own life, so this does not apply to me. it is fascinating talking to you. i have thoroughly enjoyed it. >> it has been nice talking to you. a route map shows you where we go. but not how we get there. because in this business, there are no straight lines. only the twists and turns of an unpredictable industry. so the eighty-thousand employees at delta... must anticipate the unexpected. and never let the rules overrule common sense. this is how we tame the unwieldiness of air travel, until it's not just lines you see... it's the world. ♪ [ male announcer ] with 50 horsepower, dual overhead cams and fierce acceleration, the gator xuv 825i will shatter your expectations. ♪ before your next big trip outdoors, visit johndeere.com/greentag for huge savings at this year's john deere green tag event. ♪ lost jane. ♪ oh baby give me one more chance ♪ ♪ won't you please let me back into your heart ♪ ♪ oh, darling i won't last if i let you go ♪ >> the jackson 5 recording "i want you back" and the first release in motown and then they left motown and became the jacksons. now they are going on tour for the first time in three decades and paying tribute to their brother michael. joining me is michael, tito and marlon and jackie. welcome. it is fantastic to see you. >> great to see you. >> it is a real thrill, because i grew up with your music and the moment i hear that i want to get up and i start -- i and i won't because you don't want to see that. but it is a bittersweet moment, because seeing the four of you together without michael, you know, for everyone that loved all of you guys, a very bittersweet moment, but for you in particular, this was your brother. how does it feel for you going back on tour on the road and michael is no longer here? >> well, we will miss him. we are excited to keep the legacy going, the music going, but we miss him so much. it is something that he would want us to do is to keep it going. and i guess that the challenge, right, guys, was to decide what music we were going to do. that was the biggest challenge. >> and the fans wanted us to tour. we were getting so many e-mails from the fans around the world, and we owe it to them as well to perform for the fans and they want to sing the songs with us, and entertain. >> and i think with the brothers and each one of us might have our own reason of why and how we feel on stage without having our brother up there, because for so many years we performed and he was right there with me, and so when i am on stage i think, wow, michael used to be right here, and no longer here, but in spirit he will be here. >> i agree with marlon in what he was saying. what is beautiful about the tour is that we are going to be doing some of the venues that we played prior to motown like the apollo theater. >> in new york. >> yes, and we started there. >> and so many shows with michael prior to "i want you back" and abc." >> and six shows a day. >> six shows a day? >> yes. >> is that right? >> yes. when we were trying to make it. yes. >> and so coming back to michael a little later, but when you think of the jacksons, i suppose that the impression that everybody has is that you guys never really had a childhood, this thing exploded when you were young, and that you have all in some way been damaged by that fact. that you never had the chance to be normal, and yet, i have only met three of you now and i have met jermaine before and you seem remas remarkably undamaged on the outside [ laughter ] happy guys. and so i'm thinking that you guys are damaged, but what is the truth about being a jackson? >> well, what is abnormal? you see. what is abnormal? >> well, that is the a good point. >> my theory on all of that is that i have always said that i think that my father prepared us for manhood. you are only a child up to 18. but you have the rest of your life to be a man. and he prepared us to be men for the next 40 or 50 years, and you know, we are men. >> has he had too hard of a rap your father? >> i feel so, for sure. >> absolutely. >> and i have interviewed janet -- and i have interviewed your mother, and of the many things that she said that was extraordinary was the defense of her husband, your father, which is the most moving. how do you honestly feel? do you feel that your father went too far on occasion or do you now that you are older and have had kids, some of you, yourselves, do you get it? >> i get it totally. you know, when you are kids, you feel that your father has gone too far, because you are a kid, but now when you look back, he has done a wonderful job. look at where we are, i mean. >> and i think that, you know, when you have so many kids in the family, and we are 11 of us in the home in gary, indiana, and so many where along the way, you have to have a grip on the family. and he saw something that in the -- well, let me rephrase that, and i will say that my mom saw something in the kids that my father did not see is that they had some type of talent. >> when you see your father now, because he is such an extraordinarily icon figure in american entertainment and the guy who has always had the mean, tough-guy reputation and brutalizing the children and driving this tome fame and fortune and the more i talk to people around your family, the less i feel that, and the more i feel like he just wanted you guys to come out of life well. >> that is right. he got behind us. he supported us. >> how do you get along with him now? >> great. >> very well. >> he kept us busy, and you know he used to work two jobs, and when he was away, we had cylinder blocks in the backyard and we had to mo them, hup dreads of them from one side of the yard to the other, and when you get older, you realize what he was doing, keeping you off of the streets. >> what are the values he instilled in you? >> respect other people is the main one. >> be honest in what you are doing what you are told the do and exactly how you are told the do and the discipline. >> your mother saids she despairs in modern america in control of children that you can't do anything to discipline the children and sometimes the kid is ringing up and complaining about their own patients and sometimes fairly, and unfairly because there is abuse out there, but she feels not strong enough discipline. >> i hope that the kids today respect the adults the way we did when we were coming up as kids. i see the kids today, they don't step aside and let the elderly go in front of them or pass over them or open the door for them and there is no sense of that. that comes from the inner house, and that is from the parents instilling values and things of that nature of the kids. that is not happening, because the parents are too busy trying to be kids, themselves. >> i totally agree with you. when we come back, i want to talk to you about the plans for the tour and how you are going to remember michael and there is a suggestion of having a hologram on the stage. >> that is not true. >> okay. let's get to the truth of the rumors flying behind the break. ] [ male announcer ] we began with the rx.

the build-up to the tour, and 50 dates and huge commitment for someone like michael with the energy he puts into those shows. i mean, how did you feel as brothers? >> i wondered how he would do 50 days first of all. i said, if he is going to do that, we will give him some help. just call the brothers. >> jackie is trying to get up on stage. >> and did you feel he was okay and in himself. >> yeah, he would do fine. he is very fine. >> and i don't know if he was, you know, being rushed or, you know, to be rushed into things, but health wise he was fine though. >> what do you feel, tito about conrad murray? >> well, i feel that like we are supposed to have forgiving hearts, and that doesn't mean i have to forget. we have forgiving hearts, and i forgive everybody. >> do you forgive him? >> yes, we are supposed to, and we are supposed to feel that way. >> i don't feel that way at all. >> how do you feel? >> i feel it is negligence and it is on his part plus others, and we are yet to know what really, really happened, but i'm a forgiving person, but not when it comes to that. >> how can you forgive him as your brother? >> i am not saying that i am not upset about what happened, but i can't go around angry and upset and want to get revenge and all of these things like that, because things happen, and i'm made to forgive. so i have to forgive. doesn't mean i have to forget. i have not forgotten what happened and it hurts me dearly. some terrible things done? absolutely. i have to forgive, and i can't be angry. >> it is interest, because i interviewed a number of conrad murray's patients who all defended him to the hilt. you know, the impression i got looking from the outside was that he got off at a massive payday and it may have clouded his judgment, and a judgment that until then had been very sound, and that something just went wrong with him. and he was cutting corners and doing stuff with michael that he shouldn't have been doing in the private home. i know that it is how it seemed to me. >> i agree with that. there is so much to talk about when it comes to this, and it is just not all of it though. >> it is not all of it. >> it is just the the beginning >> i will say this, and i think my brothers will concur. you know, as time goes on, there's a little healing, but there's a void that's always going to be in your heart, you know, because yore brother is not here anymore >> exactly. >> it has to be a huge void because he was -- you all loved your brother. to the rest of the world he was michael jackson, the superstar. for you guys, you all being huge stars yourselves, he was your little brother in the end, and nothing else can change that. that's your feeling towards it. >> people looked at michael as a superstar, but to us he's our brother. >> and he is a big superstar. >> he is a big superstar, he. >> how are you feeling about all the trials and tribulations he went through, the accusations, the molestation charges, all that kind of thing? did it have a very bad impact on him, do you think? >> i think it did. >> definitely. >> yes. >> i think what we do here on planet earth is that we're too quick to judge, and i think the lord put us on this earth to love one another, not to judge one another. that's his job to do, to judge people. and when you do leave this planet, you'll be judged on what you've done for yourself -- not for yourself, but what you've done for others, and not for ridiculing people and things of that nature. that's what we do. that's what we do wrong. >> let's take a little break. let's talk about the tour and let's talk about happier things with michael about the kind of music you're going to be playing. i want to know what your favorite jackson songs were. i've got a long limits. i want to know which one you would choose. >> and we want to know your favorite. >> we'll be right back. ♪ abc, 1, 2, 3 ♪ come on, come on, let me show you what it's all about ♪ of fa. but if you take away the faces on the trees... take away the pixie dust. take away the singing animals, and the storybook narrator...
