52-year old La Toya Jackson was snapped doing a bit of shopping on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, CA this week lookin’ pretty damn good for a woman of her age. I distinctly recall that there was a time when Toy was THE black sheep of the Jackson family, right around the time that Michael Jackson was comfortably resting on his laurels and Janet Jackson was at the height of her fame. Now, Michael is a sad (scary) shadow of his former self and Janet, well, is no longer at the height of her fame … and La Toya is lookin’ pretty damn fierce, if I do say so myself:

Now, I have no idea what La Toya is doing these days so that she can afford to shop on Rodeo Drive (actually, I don’t see any bags so mebbe she was window shopping?) but it’s so nice to see an uncrazy Jackson for a change. I had hope that Michael‘s children might grow up to redeem the family name but that is looking less and less likely. I never would’ve dreamed that the hope for the family’s sanity would rest on the shoulders of La Toya Jackson but … it looks like it’s turned out that way. You go, Toy Toy!

Well, maybe LaToya was going to a party later on…..dressed up as Paula Abdul?
I love that she’s waving the paparazzi away like she’s actually famous or something. Her boobs look massive in the first picture and she’s way too old for that outfit, sorry.
She is famous though, we know who she is…so doesn’t that make her famous?
She may not be POPULAR, but she’s still famous nonetheless.
I consider her to be infamous. Her engaging in public gossip about her famous siblings in order to increase her own celebrity is the main reason anyone knows her. Though in the end it’s all about semantics and POV.
I find it hilarious that with all the plastic surgery, she looks a ton like Michael. She, Michael and Janet have the same noses. I guess they share the same plastic surgeon?
La Toya looks gorgeous as usual! She is definitely the best Jackson and a fantastic performer as well.
she looks good for 52, i love the hand though…hahaha.
It’s great to see La Toya Jackson on the road again. I’m so looking forward for her album Starting Over. She can really dance on stage, I’m suprised why she isn’t famous like her brother Michael. I hope someday she will. I’m glad to watch most of her clips on You Tube & she can really dance.
Toy you Rock Girl.
there are other younger jackson’s besides michael’s kids / most of them have regular jobs or work in the music business in some way / janet is still normal even with what happened with the superbowl, it wasn’t the end of the world
Jebus, I thought it was Michael!!!
