Well, I don't know Janet personally, and I was not with Janet every day, so she might not have meant literally, like never spending any time with them. I think she meant because she was such a tomboy. However, I'm a diehard Janet and Jackson fan and I've always thought that Latoya and Janet were close, if not then, then definitely now.

I think she just didn't want to keep smiling because it would look weird, sometimes I do that when I'm smiling and when I turn to talk to someone else, the smile may fade. She smiled long enough and she was turning to talk to Whoopi. I didn't see anything wrong. I think some people just want to criticize Latoya no matter what she does. I have seen pictures of Janet and Latoya hanging out together a lot. They do seem close to me.

people read whatever they want into celebrities. we tend to think we know them, but in reality we no nothing about who they are.

I've read numerous articles about them spending time together. Janet also went to see Latoya after she got out of the celeb big brother house.

I hate this show! These bitches do nothing but sit there,gossip and talk shit.How can anyone watch this crap?

It's good to know that LaToya and her mother appreciated Madonna's speech.Jermaine liked it too,he was smiling as Madonna spoke.

Madonna's eulogy to Michael was the most touching one I've heard since his brother Marlon and daughter Paris spoke at the memorial service in Los Angeles. She's humanized him in a way that he never could for himself.

Janet was the only Jackson who flew to the UK to support her sister when she came out of the big bro house.

She are close. Stop reading into things people!

Plus i liked Madonna's speech - but i hated the attention she got for it over Janet from the international media.

The hoarseness of Joy behar’s voice made my skin crawl, did she swallow a frog? Frog voice.

I ended up seeing this. Becuase I don't work during the day I watch crap like this but not anymore!


Anyway, unrelated to Madonna I thought LaToya was really good! I mean, surprisingly! She asked questions rather well and unlike EVERY OTHER PANEL MEMBER, did not visibly look at a card when doing so. As for a quest sitting in, she was a million times better than Donlad Trump's wife who barely knew English! It reminded me of the one scene in "Mrs. Doubtfire" where Robin Williams pretends to be a bad nanny calling in for the job in order to freak out Sally Field.
Williams: "I am job."
Fields: "You're calling about the nanny position?"
Williams: "I AM JOB!"

Now I know whenever anyone that is known for doing something else (in LaToya's case, she is certainly always doing "something else") is even OK at something like this that the industry takes it overboard, but I wouldn't be too shocked if she got a shot at a talk show. It might be terrible, but it might FINALLY be her calling, too.

As for the Madonna, it was a bit about her but I think that was to make him actually more human (as she said). Keep in mind, while Madonna still has her critics (who had a field day with this), she is still hugely respected and a force to be reckoned with. Only among the mega fans of Michael was that true.

She said so herself. I know they got close just recently.
