Joe Jackson -- Pimpin' All Over Brazil

Joe Jackson's mouth is working overtime in Brazil -- smooth-talkin' ladies, sippin' down drinkies ... and making STUPID comments that may have cost him a fortune!

Joe Jackson's Brazilian Babe Tour

When not compromising his wrongful death lawsuit against Dr. Conrad Murray in Brazil this week, Joe Jackson has been throwing back drinks and hangin' with pretty young things.

While Papa Joe is technically in South America on a book tour, he's spending more time promoting his smooth moves.

No word if Michael would have supported his mac daddy in these instances too.

Joe Jackson Compromises Wrongful Death Claim

Joe Jackson may have just dug himself a hole to China during a TV appearance in Brazil ... by telling the host Michael Jackson "never supported me."

During the interview on "Hoje em Dia," the interviewer incorrectly said, you were being supported by Michael."  Joe responded, "No, he never supported me."

The statement flies in the face of his claim in the Michael Jackson Estate case ... that Michael did indeed support him -- which is why Joe asked for an allowance.

Even more serious for Joe, by admitting MJ never supported him, it could severely compromise his wrongful death lawsuit against Dr. Conrad Murray.  Joe's statement could severely limit his monetary claim, because now he can't show he lost money when Michael died.Michael didn't support his dad, but he gave Katherine $50,000 - $66,000 a month ... and she would then use that money to pay for Joe's living expenses.  

Michael also cut Joe out of his will.
