Gil said on his blog that the dates are coming in March, and the tour will start in late May. Nothing really official though.

yeah, the most i've heard is the tour kicks off in march. nothing from her people, though, and surprisingly nothing from her boyfriend/career sabotagor.

I think they are.He recently got a new job at Island Records,so the big question is....will Janet follow him to that label? Will she continue to allow him to guide her career?

From Gil's blog

Its so sad. Her little baby just born left without a mother. Now she has to go through finding out who her real father is.....Bless her and her family..Its kinda crazy that Anna's old husband who passed away left his will to his son. Then the son died> Then it was Anna Nicoles son then its her.....God bless Anna Nicole, her family and her daughter. So sad.

Ok Im obsessed with Pink. If there are two ladies I want to work for in the future it is Pink and Kylie Minogue. They seem to not worry about artistic expression and the way they move is so morbid in a god way. I love how they move. I just love at times going way left in choreography and direction and going way outside of the box of dance sometimes.

NOT SO SURE- whoever u are, I think ur funny. I like your humor. AND NO- its not negative. At least u have humor about it all. By the way_ i like your blogs. completely not true- Its not a war of me against all her fans. but its your blog. =). Watch us eventually be friends somehow.....i think humor is always great and sarcasm.

Things are moving forward. Sorry for the wait. U will hear about the tour real soon. I know I been saying it for awhile but its true. I dont know why noone aint releasing the tour dates. Its probably because of routing from where we r rehearsing . I do know we kick of end of May. Thats right. I said it. End of may on the west coast.

So its in the papers, Jd is now urban president of Island def jam. island def jam is under what umbrella....and whos the president of def jam? connect the dots.....its gonna be amazing.

I had amazing time last night from 930pm last night to 6 am. i couldnt believe the sun was up. and guess wwhat was playing on repeat.?? Roll witch you.....I love that song.

PS- thank u everyone for your sweet emails on myspace. I know I cant answer them but i just wanted to tell all of u that Im thankful to read your messages as I wake up.....so THANK U ALL. Ill try and answer your questions in here.

yeah, I heard about the DefJam gig and figured maybe Janet would go there. I hope it's the best thing for her and she's not following him. Mariah's there but that should have nothing to do with her but I could see JD touting that. Please don't let them do that damn duet...

if you go to janet's myspace she has a video of the dancers doing the fitting so it looks like things are gearing up.

Eww, it's all just too close for comfort. Producers, employees, lovers, friends... a line needs to be drawn somewhere. We can hang out for a bit but at the end of the show, you go your way and I go mine. There will be no sleepovers, shopping sprees or group sex. You don't speak for me, blog for me or stand in for me. Ever. That's all. Buh-bye.

Well I honestly don't think there's going to be a tour. He bascially said in his blog today that her sponsors/promoters don't think the tour is going to be successfull .so he doesn't know if there's going to be a tour. And Janet is tired of getting the run around and she doesn't think it's worth it anymore.

No unfortunatley it's not bs let's see people wouldn't even spend ten dollars on Janet's latests cd so what makes you think people would spend money on her tour. And why would a anybody sponsors be interested when the general public has shown no interests.? That's just how promoters look at things

janet has a ton of hits. a lot of people haven't seen her. a lot of those people would go to see the hits. all of her diehards would go. i don't like the new cd but i'd go in a second flat.

the bottom line is janet wouldn't be able to charge the outrageous ticket prices huge acts can charge. she'd have to price her tickets somewhere between 50-125 and i think her people view that as insulting.

what was janet's excuse last time? poor political climate? and this time its lack of sponsor interest? please. she's playing anyone who believes her.

like i said months ago, there has never been any leak of tour talks. whenever a major artist is getting ready for a tour, there are leaks about sponsors, dates, designers, etc. there's been nothing but deadening silence. atfer that album tanked she gave up all consideration of touring.

well, you know what? it sucks. it sucks that her fans want a tour and she's too lazy to go out and...work. shit, being a performer is easy when you're on top. its the time in between that makes you a great entertainer. if she ain't got it in her anymore, she needs to retire.

And, surely dates would have been announced now - unless she's playing bar gigs.
There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently

The reason why we didn't get any tour information is because her sponsors aren't even interested in the tour. because like I said they don't think it'll be successful . And yes I know about the diehards will support but I guess that's not good enough afterall it was the diehards that bought 20 Y.O . You need more than that you still need the support of casual fans. this is what happened during Dj also nobody would risk sponorsing her tour after the superbowl.. So I think next time Janet shouldn't say anything unless she knows for sure she has sponors it only makes her look bad

Janet would be foolish not to tour.An amazing tour could revitalize her career and remind people why they became fans in the first place.Artists who don't tour on a regular basis are lazy.They don't seem to understand that touring is part of their job description.The fans deserve a tour.
