i guess virgin and janet are finished with damita jo the website is like a ghost town...no news, no updates. i'm guessing all the talk of a tour after the election was just that, only talk. oh well. | |

you inferences are a little off. i didn't think the cd flopped nor was a saying that janet and virgin have parted ways. i was just pointing out that the website is dead with no updates and no news of a posssible tour or next video/single, etc. i'm assuming they have ended support for damita jo. | |

thank god. she and they can stop waste their time and effort flogging this dog of an album. the sooner that happened, the sooner they could regroup and start working on something new to wipe away this whole horrendous year in Janet history.

Doesn't she have enough $ where she can just sit down for five minutes? I like Janet & all but lets face it - in pop you only last so long. Give it up man. These fickle bastards will never care as long as the goal is to "be on top". She needs to do music that really matters to her & if it's good her true fans & others will follow. Fuck all this blockbuster, "I'm back - LOOK @ ME!" type shit. I'm so tired of everybody trying so fucking hard. Follow your heart already... cover your tits & sing something people will give a shit about for more than a week... | |

to some extent, i agree with you. i don't think that you need to become a puritan or anything but i do think at some point you need to mature both artistically and personally. | |

I love Damita Jo. Me, too. But I do agree that Janet should just do what she wants musically and that includes being proud of Damita Jo. At one point, I would think an artist has to just forget about winning awards and tearing up the charts in favor of retaining his/her artistic integrity. I would love Janet to tour, but the truth is that during the A4Y tour, Janet would often say that touring was too much of a grind. In fact, she even looked a bit worn-out during the promo tour for Damita Jo, and I don't think it completely due to the controversy. I think it's just hard living out of a suitcase and being away from home for a few months. Maybe she's just tired and wants to focus on her personal life. I mean, why not? She has already had major success and experienced touring. It's like "been there, done that." Plus, she might want to be there for Michael and the rest of her family, too. | |

Yup. Damito Jo SUH-HUCKED. Especially those dating service interludes. I was embarrassed hearing those for the first time. "I love the islands. I love humidity." Or "Of course I love music." | |

eh, i quite liked damita jo. to each their own though. So did I. It had many problems but some of it's songs ("All Nite", "SloLove", "Like You Don't Love Me", etc.) are among Janet's very best. It got a very bad rap due to the Super Bowl and radio. It was overall a very good album, and if you include the songs from the album that weren't on the offical release, it was really hot. | |

Five minutes? It takes three to four years for her to release an album. | |
