UPDATE: Idol contestant James Durbin just tweeted, “For anyone talkin..I said pepsi NOT MJ! I have no disrespect for Michael. I grew up singing his art.

I guess youll take it how you want it…” and then followed that up with, “Talkin about MJs passing is too soon. Making a reference to an incident 25 years ago..not too soon. The stab was at pepsi people.”

Michael Jackson’s family is offended by a comment made on “American Idol” last night by a contestant, who made light of MJ’s devastating injury that triggered years of drug abuse.
