JANET MUST BE ROLLING IN BILLIONS

I heard on the radio last night that she was not happy with the way the "Rock With You" video came out so she wants to re-shoot it.

Superstardom makes you dilussional. If my albums were not selling- re-making a video would be the last thing on my mind.

Forget re-shooting...Janet should get on the road and tour NOW.Don't wait until September,announce the dates now and get it going! I don't think 'Discipline' can be revived at this point (I could be wrong).Her best bet would be to do a summer greatest hits tour.

she needs to drop this whole fake persona she has- the album cover sucks- it's not her- she wants fans to think that she's an undercover freak and dominatrice when she really curls up with a teddy bear and pjs at night.

She was always lollipoppish - latebloomer, discovering new things and now this oversexed thing is tired- and it's hurting her

She should be doing the tour before the albyum even dropped a la Prince with 3121, Musicology, Rainbow Children and Planet Earth. Videos dont make sales no more.

lol

I think her tickets should be on sale for the US leg now. I think I remember having tickets for shows six months in advance.

If something major doesn’t happen for her I’m afraid by the time her tickets are available the excitement would have died down or between the economy, gas prices and other spring/summer shows, people will be broke.
Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off

now if that was a joke- it was a damn good one because they had a snid-bit of her talking about how she was so grateful for all the fan's interest in her work and how she loves what she does- and is blessed to still have such a fan base after all these years

-the joke's on her

It doesn't take a billion to make a video. I think this is simply the second song, so she has some liberties. IMO, the video seem a bit uninspired for a great song. Also I imagine that since the album has fared decently (better than the last 2) She is given a bit of freedom to do this.

Yeah, but a tour is a huge loss leader because it would cost so much for Janet to tour. She needs a massive stage and sound production behind her, while P is not as reliant on such things, to put it mildly.

It's not uncommon to shoot a second video even for smaller acts when the most commercial track of their new album product is released as a single. European bands that are breaking out do that all the time for different market places.

I'm not a huge Natasha Bedgingfield acts but I think I believe that she has two videos for "Love Like This" and two videos for "These Words" (which is strange because the first really cute one with the radios following her sort of got pushed aside for one that is mostly her singing against a background).

Fine and well, but the correct word is "dominatrix" wink

I agree. The sexuality of her music was always most powerful when it was beneath the surface, like, say, "Funny How Time Flies . . ." or "Someday Is Tonight" or "Anytime, Anyplace."
