Janet Jackson poses weirdly for ‘Gotham’ magazine

by on Jan.19, 2010, under articles

Janet Jackson is really pretty to be in her forties. But what is up with this weird pose she struck for “Gotham” magazine?

Some quotes from the mag:

“When you hear people say life goes on, it’s really the truth. You can’t stop living. It becomes a part of you. I feel a bit selfish because there are times I feel I shouldn’t be doing this, but I enjoy my work and I have to keep doing it. I have to keep my life going. There are days that are harder than others.”

“I want to learn a language. I haven’t decided which, but it’s between French, Spanish and Italian. I also want to get closer to God.”

“It’s going to be a little different. The writing is about life experiences. There’s a part of me that’s craving escapism, which is a sense of wanting to keep on moving with my work but also of coming to terms.”

At least her dress is pretty.

2009 American Music Awards winners

by on Nov.22, 2009, under articles

2009-amas-winnersThe 2009 American Music Awards are underway and we’ve already had some pretty awesome performances. Held at the Nokia Theater, the awards show commenced with an eight-minute performance by Janet Jackson.

So far the greatest performance of the evening goes to Jay-Z and Alicia Keys’ song, “Empire State Of Mind”. Also performing tonight were Daughtry, Shakira, Kelly Clarkson, Keith Urban, Lady Gaga, Mary J. Blige, Carrie Underwood, the Black Eyed Peas, and more.

My favorite performance of the entire night was Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” and “Speechless”. To separate the songs, she broke the glass wall that encased her piano. It was so over the top and great, definitely the best performance of the night.

And the winners: (continue reading…)

madonna_janet_jackson_duetMadonna is reportedly set to do a duet with Janet Jackson as a tribute to Michael Jackson. They were said to have bonded over dinner after Sunday’s VMAs.

Janet performed “Scream” which was a duet with Michael, and then we saw Madonna’s touching tribute to him.

A source said, “It was a meeting of two great musical minds. Madonna was so impressed with Janet’s tribute to Michael that they started talking about how great it would be to honor him by doing something together…There was definitely something very interesting being planned between them.”

I’d buy it. Would you?

The culprit behind Janet Jackson’s concert cancellations has been revealed to be vestibular migraines which cause vertigo. The migraines were so terrible that she had to cancel and postpone six shows on her tour. She started suffering from the headaches at the end of September, which caused her to cancel that concert at the last minute. Also cancelled were shows in Boston, Philadelphia, Greensboro, Uncasville, and Fort Lauderdale.

Her manager said in a statement, “Janet wanted very much to resume her tour so as not to disappoint her fans, but she continued to suffer from vertigo and could not perform.”

Janet is planning on returning to the stage tonight for her performance in Washington, D.C.

And just when we all thought it was poor ticket sales!

Janet Jackson has been hospitalized, according to her rep about an hour ago.

She reportedly “got suddenly ill during the sound check” before her Montreal concert and had to be rushed to the hospital.

She is currently being monitored at the hospital and no further details have been released about her condition.

Think she’s pregnant? Or maybe she has ‘noonespayingattentiontomeitis’. What do you think?

Janet Jackson has terminated her relationship with her label, Island Records, according to her publicist.

Her rep said, “At her request, the record label has agreed to dissolve their working relationship. Now more than 20 years after the release of her iconic album, Control, Janet will have autonomy over her career, without the restrictions of a label system.”

I can’t say that I blame her, her label ceased the promotion of her newest album, Discipline, stopping the release of any new singles from the album.
