  Why is Bijou-Bitch blaming Mac for messing up her relationship with their father. I bet if Bijou was the one getting pumped with drugs and raped, she's be singing a different tune. Bijou looks like she's on drugs and in denial about what happened and just wants someone to blame and the dad is dead, so can't blame his disgusting ass. Bijou stopped speaking to the dad and blames Mac for ruining their relationship, but she chose not to speak to him and it must have been for a reason. Bijou-Bitch is in denial about what really happened. It should have been her crazy looking ass getting drugged and molested, not Mac. Mac actually had talent before her dad messed her life up. Bijou has not been in anything good. i don't even know who the hell she is, if they hadn't come out with this scandal.

  i do feel sorry for her... people that go through things that traumatic don't know how to react to them. it was her dad, someone she looked up to, someone she trusted. not that this is in any way related to this story, but look at what happens to people who are kidnapped and held hostage for a long time... they sometimes end up falling in love with their captor... Stockholm Syndrome. weird stuff happens to people (mentally, emotionally, etc.) when they go through things like that.

  There are three sides to every story - yours, mine and the truth. How can her father defend himself?

  I actually feel sorry for her to a point. To a point is the big statement, you understand she felt betrayed and confused by the act of sex with her father because sex in itself is a turn on and an act that you never forget with your first. If she kept blacking out and waking up with her pants around her legs and was piped with drugs then I feel sorry for her upbringing in that manner. To a point comes in with where was her mother?, why did she not bring charges against her father as an adult?, why did she continue past the age of 18? These are questions best answered by a psychiatrist as some abused people stay because their minds have already been locked on no help available whereas others act out in various ways. Let's just pray for this family.

  Michelle obviously has her own issues to deal with in this terrible matter. What I want to know is where the heck was Mackenzie's biological mother?? Where the heck is she now? Did Mackenzie ever explain why she never went to her mom for help? These revelations are so awful. I just can't comprehend how he could do that to his daughter....and I don't understand how (being in her TWENTIES and married) she would go meet with her father and continue the incest. Can anyone help me understand that. I want to be sympathetic to Mackenzie, because no child deserves to have this horror visited upon her. But I do agree with others who say she should be talking primarily to doctors and her family - not Oprah and Access Hollywood! By going on all these media outlets, she allows her story to become just another part of the entertainment news cycle - along with the latest Kardashian shenanigans, and who got kicked off of Dancing with the Stars.

  How callous. Like somehow this woman so grotesquely damaged by her own father should go hide away somewhere so a sham can be perpetuated by the family. I have lost all respect for Michelle Philips. There were many ways to handle this, and to throw the kids up at Ms. Philips when it seems nobody gave a da*# about her when SHE was a child, is hypocrisy at it's very worst. I like what Rudy below said: The truth seems to hurt.

  The whole story is sick. I wouldn't really feel the need to want to broadcast my dirty secrets to the WHOLE world practically, but I guess she felt the need to. Of course she would, considering no one in her family felt the need for compassion towards her or to even believe her. I find it very hard to believe Mackenzie made this all up, and if she did, wow, imagine the backlash, and even Oprah would have a thing or two to say. Michelle should be supportive instead of protecting a sick individual in John Phillips. He was a drug addict too, is she gonna support that too?

  For one thing I don't think Oprah care's if the step-mom is mad at her or not. Secondly the truth seems to hurt. She probably was aware of this and she didn't want her to go public with this dirty secret. Third it makes her look like a fool because she was married to him and if he looks bad she probably thinks she looks bad. Fourth and last she is not her daughter anymore. Who the hell cares what you think and if you are mad at anyone one you has been....

  Why would anyone want people to know they had a sexual relationship with their father that was basically consentual? Even to sell a book, when there were plenty of other shocking revelations? I believe Mac. She probably was desperate for her father's love and attention since he dumped his family for Michelle so she went along with the drugs and the sex. It seems Michelle is more concerned about the innocent hippie flowerchild image of the Mamas and the Pappas being tarnished and cutting into her profits.

  Way to be supportive Michelle! I can't imagine how hard that was for Mackenzie to come forward and talk about her abuse and then she has to deal with all this. She has lived with this for so long and I hope that getting everything out will help her heal. I'm sure it isn't easy for anyone in the family, especially Michelle and her other daughters, but I don't think Michelle needs to be telling people Mackenzie needs to be on a psychiatrist's couch either. Instead of being mad at the people who published the book and the person who wrote it, try being mad at your husband for abusing his daugher for so many years!

  Any professional dealing with sex abuse predators and victims for over 25 years would have guessed she was sexually abused. I did. Of course I didn't know by who or for how long. She has held this in long enough and I am glad she had the courage to come forward. She will help many other victims of sexual abuse become 'SURVIVORS'. I am proud of her.

  YOU ARE ALL IDIOTS. All Michelle is saying is that Mackenzie could have kept this private for the sake of other family members who might be pained with the release of such a traumatic personal event. The children in the family are less able to manage the incredibly awkward information and natually feel shame and embarassment. Who can blame them. Mackenzie needed something sensational to SELL her book at the expense of her family. No one is denying that she was a victim, but she is now victimizing others in her family. Which i guess is the pattern of abused individuals. Very little compasion. And I dont give a crap how many other victims she has helped by coming forward. Her only goal was to SELL A BOOK. She did not need to air this and could have delt with it privately. This is about $$$$ and she hurt others to get it. Victim or not it is wrong. Well said anonymous....my thoughts exactly!

  We do not know who has been abused, and who has not. It takes some victims forever to say something either because they are scared or they do not want to hurt their family or maybe some other reasons, but only they know why. It hurts all invovled, but especially the victims. Anything like this is hard to handle,molestation,incest,rape, I could go on, but to me, only those who have been their,have the right to do decide wether to say something or not. Like some of you have said,its MacKenzie's life. I have been thru alot myself,not stating what, but my family stood behind me, I was blessed and very lucky that they believed me, because if not, I would have been really hurt and probably suicidal. A victim can tell you the same truth over and over, a liar cant, they have to remember the lie and then keep covering for it. Why would someone lie about abuse? For what, I know you think for money, maybe she is broke, but thats for her to live with for the rest of her life if that is her reason, not for us to decide. her mom is probable hurt,like all parents who have been thru this would be, but life goes on and maybe Michelle will get over it and maybe she will not,thats up to her. I got help for my situation and hopefully can be an advocate for kids who have been put thru abuse like I was. But as a victim, we can tell or we can keep quiet,its up to us. Those who do abuse other's. I feel sorry for them.As for myself, I will just keep MacKenzie and her family in my prayers.

  You can truly see how Mackenzie still to this day loves her father. She's still defending him by saying he's not a bad person he was sick. I believe her.

  John Phillips died in 2001 after killing off the transplanted liver he got to replace the one he'd been born with, which he had also killed off, with drugs. So he's been dead and crumbly for nearly 9 years. How long is an incested drug-addicted daughter supposed to keep quiet about such things? It's not like he died last week or something. No, he's been dead about as long as Michelle Phillips' career...

  I just dont understand why people think she is lying? She didn't wait until the other person involved died, she told both her sisters YEARS AGO, well before her dad died. If my sister told me that, i would have confronted him. May people just want to believe it's a lie. is it gross? Hell yeah, but is it honest? I think so....

  I met Mackenzie years ago in Reno, I remember her putting me to bed as a sweet sister would do, I was only 18 at the time.....she was a great person then and still is today...you go girl.

• September 26, 2009 - 5:13pm Cristy Says:

  The ugly grandma (Michelle, whom is loosing her hair...get a wig) whom still thinks she's a Hollywood "whatever", was married to the sicko, shame on her for staying and subjecting her other children to the abuse...she knew what was going on.....you sick ol' lady. She needs her daughter so she can ride on the coat-tails of the Baldwins. Any recovering addict knows the "TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE" PART OF RECOVERY!

  HELLO? Wasn't Michelle 16 when she and John got together??? I find her reaction to all of thisa classic example of denial, and emotional blackmail to shut the victim up. Hell yes it's tabboo, but it seems like any previous attempts Mackenzie made to tell her sisters were futile, both just alienated her to the point that she recanted the story. Anyone else find it odd that neither of the 2 sisters she told didn't confide in an older family member for help? CLASSIC FAMILY OF ENABLERS!!!!!
