Hmmm. Janet must be taken in too much Southern Cuisine.
[Edited 7/8/07 10:26am]

all that crash dieting she does makes it come back at the first sight of a doughnut. she fluctuates because it's not done healthy or in a way that she can keep it up.

She has a natural, culturally shapely figure...that White America can't get with

My only problem is I wish she'd just pick a weight and stick with it, wether it's trim and toned or more full-figured. Along with her sex life, it's the number one thing I'm sick of her talking about whenever she's out (theoretically) promoting an album. "oooh, Janet, you're looking good. you lost so much weight. how'd you do it?"


christ, it's like the 8th time.

I do, too!

She got that new lil kim thickness thing happening. I don't know, if she's at some kind of peace I guess it's okay, but I'd like to see her just a tad smaller, not that bony For You look, but Janet thick.

She does look happy though and that´s the most important.

She could pass some of the weight on Michael though.

She wouldn't have any need to lip-sync until she's on tour when she's thin.

It's Us Weekly
C'mon now
All they care about is getting somebody half naked on their cover.
they have no value for truthful journalism...

sextonseven said:

i'm not sure how the sceduling is for u.s. weeklies, but i can say that magazine covers are generally shot, edited, and confirmed about 2-3 months before publication. so she's had a few weeks to sneak in a little extra cake, i think

Ottensen said:

yeah I know this is new. I was talking about how she purposely gained weight for tenessee back in 2005-06, but I don't believe she gained weight this year specifically for a movie role. I think she has issues with it now.

sextonseven said:

A few months ago when this pic was taken,she was planning to go on tour She always loses alot of weight before a tour,but I guess since those plans fell through,she said "fuck it" and started pigging out again.

SoulAlive said:

i'm not feelin' that these are recent pics of Janet...


didn't someone just post pics of her in a white dress....?



BUTTTTT this is the janet we know and love in the off season....

when its time to get back in the game...she'll be ready.

alphastreet said:

Oddly,I read a recent comment by her where she discussed Luther Vandross' yo-yo dieting....saying it was very unhealthy and one of the reasons for his death

She should just stay like this. She's not obese nor even overweight. So she's not naturally stick thin, big deal. When she vigorously works out all day every day to achieve what she does for her tours and album promotions, it's not going to stay like that unless she does the work constantly.

If she can still move around and reasonably dance like this, I don't see what the problem is. It's a shame if she feels pressured to trim down so much for an album. OK, so she purposely put on that weight last year for the film and she'd never really been that big before, but she's a healthy medium in these pics and it's obviously the weight her body is meant to be.

Rhondab said:

Agreed. She'll definitely be ready to roll.

sextonseven said:

I want abs like that

Janet looks fine to me. She has a big ass, but many of us do. I think she looks more "real" like this too.

OMFG people.

She has a big ass, and it looks like she still has well muscled arms

she's wearing baggy clothes with unflattering shots and we ready to crucify the poor woman.

no wonder girls have so many body issue problems.

i wanna see pics of some of you calling her fat.

Why does she dress like this?

I have no problem with comfort, but I hate when people look downright sloppy! Uh, Janet...They make sweat pants for women too, and they aren't all size 4X!!
