what is she supose to do, stop living? life goes on and she has to go on with it or get buried in it.she's gonna mourn her brother for a long time, but she gotta work and please dont compare janet moving on with her own life with joe capitolizing on the attention his son's death is getting for him.janet has made one public appearence since his death, she addressed the fans and peers at the bet awards, she kept it short and kept it moving, at the memorial she looked torn up and i read she stayed to herself at the repass.janet is probably the least attention seeking big star i ever seen, when she dont have a project you dont see her. she is not gonna do nothin to exploit mj's death, matter fact im willing to bet she avoid interviews because she know they gonna ask about him.

one word...superbowl. Everyone in here blamed in on Justin completely knowing that she was to blame as well in the incident.

BoOTyLiCioUs said:

No we didn't. A lot of us were upset because JT didn't get any of the blame. I'm not saying she wasn't guilty, but JT's career continues to thrive, while the mainstream press and media ripped the poor girl to shreads. If the blame had been distributed equally, then I don't think it would have been such a division.

Maybe if she would put out music that not only people could understand, but dance to, instead of that whispering, Helen Keller shit, she would get the respect that she so desperately wants and the media would not of ripped her to shreds.

You make a good point. Sure, the whispering has gotten bad, but she has released some good songs on her last few projects. My issue is not the music so much, but the fact that people blame Janet for changing the media laws. Hell, they tried to fine her for every affiliate in the US that aired the Superbowl that year. That's straight up crazy as hell. To make it worse, she issued apologies and statements, yet mainstream radio and television have just ignored the girl.

To be honest, there is no reason why "Rock Wit U", "Luv" and "Enjoy" shouldn't have been big hits. It was all because of the backlash.

It's reality, and these are experiences of real people. Really, who cares if someone "buys it" or not? I think it's insulting to suggest that someone is inauthentic if they don't halt their lives completely for months on end to do nothing but sit at home and cry when someone in their life dies. Life goes on - a shocking concept,I know.

IF SOMEONE DOES NOT LIKE JANET, AS AN ARTIST, PERSON, OR EVEN HER NEW MUSIC. WHY ARE YOU EVEN POSTING ON THIS THREAD?????


these people are haters, not only jealous but secret fans. THEY WISH THEY COULD BE JANET, cause she is the female equivalence of Michael.

Her new music is just as great as the old... and its a matter of taste. If you can like Lil wayne, and this other garbage out on the radio including madonna, Man Gaga, britney, mariah, THEN YOU HAVE NOT RIGHT TO TALK CRAP ABOUT JANET'S MUSIC.

Janet is NOT the female equivalence of Michael. She wishes! not even in his league...PLEASE. Mariah writes and composes her own music. Plus gurl could sing her ass off in her hey day. Janet a singer? Plus had dozens of good music/albums. She's sold more than Janet. Tied Elvis for most number one singles. Even with Mariah's shot voice now, she could still sing Janet under the table. There's nothing wrong with not liking the person but liking the music...she's has SOME good music but it's fell flat in the last 11 years. Janet is the perfect example of a walking advertisment.

It's amazing to me that this is even being discussed, Parents bury kids and if they are in the working class you get 5 days tops and you have to get back to work..It doesn't mean they have stop mourning...People grieve in different ways... that's why i did not attack Joe when he made those statements about his new business.. I have no idea of what that man is feeling inside..

BoOTyLiCioUs said:

mariah's songs are crap and her writing abilitiy isn't that great.

OH and you made it clear that what i said applies to you.

If it weren't for Tommy Mottal aka the Devil, her career wouldn't even be half of what it is majority of those numbers ones were given to her. She slept her way to the top . Thats something janet didn't have to do.
Janet could out perform mariah any day. Mariah looks uncomfortable, and ackward on stage. JANET OWNS THE STAGE.

OH PLEASE. Name the songs that Janet has written. Mariah has natural talent...something that Janet never had. Aleast Mariah doesn't moan in her songs or use the same sex formula for the last 16 years. Aleast Mariah didn't use her brother's name to get a record deal.

By definition you can't be trolling if you are discussing an artist you like in a thread about that artist, so....

BoOTyLiCioUs said:

Actually, Joe Jackson got Janet that record deal and pushed her into recording (a reason she still doesn't like the first two albums she cut), so if you want to blame someone for the scourge of Janet on your life, it would be him. If you're being accurate, instead of a troll.
