I can't watch the video with audio (don't wanna spoiler) but it is so refreshing to see dancers of different shapes and sizes. She looks happy.

I admire your discipline. lol Those two young kids and the big gul seemed to have killed it from the clips I saw. I don't recall her ever touring with kids that young before.

The clips look great. I'm trying not to watch the new songs, so that my first listen isn't tainted by bad sound. The only change I would make is the harem pants. Cute look for a few songs, but for the whole show? Any choreography below the waist is sort of obscured by them. She's looking incredible, though.

She wore the Black version of the White outfit at tonights show from the pics on IG. I need some color and other wardrobe selections on this tour.

Cant believe how disrespectful you are to Janet disbelief

You think Janet lets her man approve of what she can wear?

I think Janet's new style is VERY beautiful & compliments her true beauty. I always prefered the more demure Janet. If she wants to respect her marriage. It is NOTHING wrong with that! It is NOT disrepectful..She has really NEVER needed to dress provocatively

Being honest and having an opinion is not disrespectful. These outfits are awful. I'm sure her choreography is great for the tour. She's doing a lot of songs which is good but all that music with one costume seems boring.I have tickets for nola but just might try to sell them. I attended velvet rope and all for you tour there.

Thats not what you said in your original massege. you said "Wissan will NOT approve...." Thats something completely different than Janet respecting her marriage.

btw, you don't even know these things, you're just making it up as an explanation why she is dressed this way.

LMAO! You would sell your tickets because of a costume? Is the point of a concert the costume?

At any rate, there was a costume change last night. I'm sure there will be more over the course of the tour.

Not just because of the costume situation. The show just looks kind of boring to me.

Yeah, where's the staging? The lack of costume changes is one thing, but even the staging looks dull. Janet isn't the type of artist who can pull off a One Nite Alone type of show. When you see Janet Jackson you expect a spectacle. Is it a lack of budget or a conscious decision to scale back? Can't believe this took 12 months of preparation....

You simply have no proof of this.

Stop sterotyping and jumping to your own conclusions just because the dude is Muslim.

Janet was covered from head to toe on the RN Tour over 20 years before she met Wissam.

This is exactly what I have been thinking as pictures surface of the shows. I watched a bit of the Velvet Rope dvd, and while yes, that was over 15 years ago, it's the type of production I think most people expect from her. Not this dull stage, and unflattering single costume sad

She can be covered up and still look cool

If you will, so will I

Janet's voice sounds better than ever! At times it can be interchangeable with her brother....

I saw Janet Jackson last night on the second date of her new world tour. omg It was absolutely mindblowing.


I wore a concert tee from Rhythm Nation Tour which stopped in my city 25 years ago, and was chosen before the show to be upgraded to FRONT ROW CENTRE! excited Between me and the stage, there was only a little aisle for the video cameras doing live projection, and as a result, I was on the projection screens quite a lot to where strangers were stopping me outside of the show because they recognized me.

The set list on page one looks right. hmmm Where it says DJ SET is when she changed costumes. Otherwise she was on stage the whole time, nod VERY high energy performances, dancing and live singing.

Janet blew me a kiss during the rap to "No Sleeep" and saw me blow it back to her! lips kiss2

Her new songs, you guys will love them. She has some content that is like the deeper stuff on Rhythm Nation, as far as human relationships ("After You Fall") and social commentary ("Should Have Known Better"). Then of course she has some of the most fun, kinetic music she's ever done, like the track with Missy ("Burn It Up")!

The stage does change and move but I think the best pictures and video that you've seen so far are from when she is performing near the front of the stage. I was so stoked to see her back on stage!

i doubt that person really has tickets, no sane person would consider selling concert tickets because of the artist costumes.
