Michael Jackson and his younger sister Janet got close as kids because they both hated their father Joseph, according to recently revealed tapes.

The King of Pop, who passed away in June this year, spoke openly about his troubled childhood and the abuse he suffered at the hands of his father. During taped interviews with his friend Rabbi Shmuley Boteach between 2000 and 2001, the superstar confessed that Janet shared the same feelings of hostility towards their dad.

And the sister brother duo told each other that they would not mind if he died. “I''ll never forget this... I would say, ''Janet, shut your eyes.'' She''d go, ''OK, they''re shut.'' I would say, ''Picture Joseph in a coffin. He''s dead. Do you feel sorry?'' She would go, ''No,’” the Daily Express quoted Jackson as telling Boteach.

The star added: "That''s what we would do to each other as kids, we would play games like that. She''d go - she''d go, ''Nope,'' just like that. And that''s how hateful we were. I go, ''He''s in the coffin, he''s dead - would you feel sad? Would you feel sorry?'' and of course she goes, ''Nope,'' just like that. That''s how angry we were with him. And I love him today, but he was hard."
