When I opened this site nine years ago, I never knew I would gain such amazing, inspiring friends that have been strong supporters of We Love 3T and the Jackson Family. One of my friends send me a sweet message every year. She designs the most beautiful clothes and her inspiration comes from the trend setting styles of Michael Jackson and his music that continues to live on through generations. She just recently created an outfit, although designed for a woman, this outfit was created with the BAD album in mind for the 30th Anniversary of Micheal Jackson's BAD album. The ruffle on the bottom of the jacket is a nod to the Victorian influence of the BAD tour at London's Wembly Stadium. She always loved the snake jacket Michael Jackson wore so, she tried to incorporate that on the front of her amazing design of the woman's jacket. Michael Jackson was well know for his music by the fans that loved him and still love him today and he was also equally known for his trend setting designs on and off of the Red Carpet. Join we in giving Mrs. Kathy Knapp a thumbs up on a job well done on her inspiring design and leave her some love with comments below.

"Remembering Michael Jackson" is a mixed-media, contemporary art, quilt designed by Mrs. Kathy Knapp. She originally designed the piece for "Cultural Icons" an International Art Event. Mrs. Knapp later shared her design here on the website for fans to enjoy. Mrs. Knapp has recently been transitioning from wearable art into mixed media textiles. She came across the event by accident in late January and only had a few weeks to complete it as it was due on February 14, 2016. Although, she did not have a lot of time to complete her work, she put an intense effort into it, working 12 hour days until completion. Since, Mrs. Knapp felt Michael Jackson defined THE Icon of pop culture, she felt compelled to meet this challenge. "This work is inspired by the iconic sequined white glove that defined Michael Jackson for a generation. From his elaborate stage costumes and choreography of his short films; he defined the genre of the music video. He served as inspiration for all artists to become innovators and perfectionists of their craft and above all, to “follow your dreams wherever they may lead”. Mrs. Knapp is hoping to do a garment and contemporary art quilt for the 30th Anniversary of the BAD album. Michael Jackson's BAD album was released on August 31, 1987, two days after his birthday.

Hi Amber, Your cousin has a really nice site and really nice designs. –Nancy Hello, I really like your cousin’s work. She has a lot of great pieces. I will defiantly be back to her site to purchase some items. –Keisha Nothing like family love, Amber you have every right to be proud of your cousin. She has beautiful designs. I am sharing her site with a few of my girlfriends. –Shonna Excellent work! I like what I see. I may have to treat myself to a few pieces. She has so many nice things it will be hard to decide. –Amy Born a California native and raised in Pittsburgh, Pa from the age of 10 and having a family deeply involved in the music industry, is what helped create this musical genius of the 21st century. At the tender age of ten, Tommy Parker began playing the piano by ear and singing in the Afro-American Music Institutes (A.A.M.I) boys choir. "As a child I went to sleep listening to all the greats such as Stevie Wonder, The Jackson 5, Marvin Gaye, and so many more. These legends inspired me to sing and dance at a very early age". As an artist of great talents Tommy Parker has cultivated a musical sound that is all familiar yet intriguingly new. With his new and improved Pop sound that embodies a hint of R&B, Tommy Parker has opened a door to a new genre amongst his peers. He explains "As a producer for the power house R.J. Productions(Janet Jackson, Brandy, The Pussycat Dolls), I enjoy making music that has depth and inspires great feelings". With the growing popularity of Austin Brown and the Backpack Kids, fans wanted to know more and more about Tommy Parker. His work with his mentor and business partner Rodney Jerkins/Darkchild and his strong ability on the keys as backup vocals for Austin Brown’s band has made him a fan favorite. "I love his music, I've been a fan since I first heard it". -Rodney Jerkins Thirty (30) fans came together on 85' A.B. to form a new group in support of Tommy Parker. In support of the new group and Tommy Parker, his best friend Amber (owner of We Love 3T and 85 A.B.) thought about several different nicknames for Tommy. His newest one came to her mind and she decided with the other members that this new group for Tommy Parker should be called "Prince Parker Fans". "Tommy has been my biggest supporter and I am so thankful because I was nervous about him seeing it at first. You just don’t know how a person will react. I place my heart and soul into each website and try to pay respect to each individual's craft so when they see it, I can only hope for the best." -Amber The group later turned into a website called "The Official Prince Parker Fans" in April of 2012 and now currently has over 1,000 fans. During the time the website was just starting out, Amber announced that after talking with Tommy Parker, they would be teaming up to bring the fans a new interactive page called "Tommy Tuesdays". "Tommy Tuesdays" features questions from Amber to Tommy Parker and Tommy Parker's answers to her questions. This way fans have a chance to know a little more about Tommy Parker and his amazing work as a musician, producer and artist. She hoped later to, and did expand "Tommy Tuesdays" to fans and allow the fans to write in and receive an answer to their questions as well from Tommy Parker. "Tommy and I started Tommy Tuesdays. Fans on 85 A.B. had been asking about Tommy. They had seen him with Austin Brown and they wanted to know more. So after talking it over with Tommy, Tommy Tuesdays was born and we have had a lot of fun working on that together." -Amber Through "Tommy Tuesdays" fans get to experience his music and thoughts on various topics which have included his thoughts on Michael Jackson and Janet Jackson. Tommy Parker is a very close friend of the Jackson family. He has worked with and produced for Janet Jackson and Austin Brown. He is sorry to say that he was never able to work with the great Michael Jackson but, wanted to. Tommy worked with Janet Jackson on the song “Make Me”. Janet Jackson released and dedicated “Make Me” to her brother Michael Jackson. Amber asked him during one "Tommy Tuesdays" If you could go back in time and work with someone, who would it be and why? Tommy Parker's answer was "Of course, Michael Jackson, because I have always wanted to work with a king." When Amber asked Tommy Parker "What was it like working with Janet Jackson in the studio? Tommy Parker responded by saying Well, I wasn’t side by side with her but, I did meet her a lot. It was great; she is such a sweet person. She was very nice to my mom and to me. She really loves me and my family and I Really love her and her family. She is amazing. Tommy Parker since that interview was able to work with Janet Jackson again, overseas for her new upcoming album. He is a name that fans have grown to love and respect. He was featured on ThisIsRNB.com as "Emerging Artist: Singer/Songwriter Tommy Parker!! http://www.thisisrnb.com/2012/08/emerging-artist-singersongwriter-tommy-parker/ and his music can be found on SoundCloud at: https://soundcloud.com/tommyparker80s "I am sooo super proud and honored to call him my best friend and I love him very much!!" -Amber To learn more about Tommy Parker check out "The Official Prince Parker Fans" at: http://theofficialprinceparkerfans.weebly.com/index.html Bio/Quotes featured at: http://www.myspace.com/tommyparker80s Jackson Brothers are bringing "Unity Tour" to Australian cities.

I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving and a great time with family and friends. We here at We Love 3T have so much to be thankful for. I am so happy to announce to you all that I have heard from Treasure's mother and Treasure is doing wonderful! She just passed the 2 year mark since her last surgery. She started high school in September and is living her life as a teenager should be. Treasure's mother also asked me to refer everyone to the website http://www.friendsoftreasure.com/home.html to see how Treasure and her mom are "Paying It Forward" by helping others. Treasure's mom would like to ask those of you who can to please help with a fundraising event they have going on right now. They are trying to help a little girl named Gabby. She needs a mobility chair that costs approximately $1500. She just suffered a bad fall and is really in need of help. Thanks, Amber Michael Jackson to be inducted in the Official R&B Music Hall of Fame. The Official R&B Music Hall of Fame Museum plans to honor those individuals who have made amazing contributions to music genre. Michael Jackson name will be one of the first, along with Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, The Temptations, Otis Redding, The O' Jays, Gerald Levert and many more. You know I have to say this because the media has done everything possible to destroy the Jackson family. They have written millions and millions of lies about the Jackson family and it is sad to say for some people they believe the lies because it is written somewhere, so they feel it must be true. I think it is sick that certain individuals refuse to allow Michael Jackson to rest in peace.The Jackson family seem to have targets on their backs. Today, we were asked to wear orange to show our support against bullying but, I guess if you are considered a celebrity, then who cares. I hope Janet continues to remain strong though some are truly trying to break her, WeloveyouJanetJackson! |
