She looked beautiful, I spun 1814 later last night, but she seemed a bit doped up. I hope she hasn't been medicating herself to deal with MJ's passing. Because her wide-eyed smile, which even she addressed, seemed off.

But, she looked beautiful.

I thought it was a good interview. I liked the fact that she and Robin had a couple of "sister girl" moments. Robin was very respectful to Janet and didn't try to make her cry on television.

I hope Janet can watch "This Is It" before she goes on her next tour or does her next show. She could definitely use a few pointers.

right post- wrong thread- ok let's try again:

ok so she still LOVES JD- I have a feeling that he is still hittin that- and that they will be back together as soon as he kicks his addiction to ghetto booty strippers.

and it seems that no one knew about just how deep mike was into his addiction and the insomnia and pain that he actually suffered. How disappointing- I know that that eats away at her in particular - i'm sure she feels responsible for what happened too...

- and did y'all catch the trailer snidbit for WDIGM2- WTH? - eek
LOVE HARD.

Fuck Janet! She is now shamelessly promoting her new album by "opening up for the first time about the death of Michael". That is bullshit. She is on the moneytrain along with her brothers and sisters, trying to capitalize off MJ's death. Screw her. I thought she was above that, but apparently NOT.

GTFHO!!

What money train? She's wealthy!! You MJ fans keep going awf on how the siblings are capitalizing off his death when other companies are just doing that by releasing that shit called "This is It" and various completions. She's been doing this shit way before the nigga died. Let it go!!

That may be part of it. Think about this, though. Janet has to promote this new project. It's a part of her contract. She may not have to do anything but one television interview, one magazine interview and one performance, but that's it. Universal has invested lots of money into this project. They have tv commercials running and this is November sweeps.

MICHAEL JACKSON WAS A DRUG ADDICT.

I don't know why his fans are shitting on themselves because other people are saying it and I'm glad Janet's not going to act naive about it like Jermaine did. Talking about they're ruining his legacy. Pleaseee! his legacy has been ruined ever since he started messing up his skin/face and got accused for playing with little boys. LET . IT . GO!

How much money have they invested in a complilation of songs recorded YEARS ago?

It's funny how she never wanted to talk about his death until now, when her album is dropping. HOW FUCKING CONVENIENT, JANET!! She is no better than Joe Jackson IMHO. Get on the gravy train and get some money from your dead brother's estate. There was a reason why Michael did not leave ANY money to his siblings. Some people just don't understand that, being too far up their ass.

hah!

SHE DOESN'T NEED NO MONEY falloff

Janet's a multi-millionaire that built her own empire. Maybe, you should find your way out of MJ's pale ass and come back down to reality sweetie. People were going to ask her thoughts on MJ's death either way so she did us a favor by doing one.

It's not the compilation so much. It's the commercials, print and online ads. So, she has to fulfill something. Not to mention the video for "Make Me".

She did the interview with Harpers Bazzar right after MJ died. That was the first time we heard her speak after his death.

perhaps yall should contact all the siblings and tell them WHAT, WHEN & WHERE they can do ANYTHING. going to the GROCERY STORE it seems would qualify as capitalizing off of Michael's death. i'm scared of the ignorance of some of MJs fans on here.

You know I love Janet, but I think she could've gone into detail with the situation, specifically when these interventions happened. Michael had problems with pain medication in 1993 (for obvious reasons) and in 2001 but I believe other than the propofol and suffering from health issues (lupus) and insomnia, he was healthy.

She didn't call him an addict or a junkie (which Joe's homeboy, the infamous Leonard Rowe did, and we KNOW why he did), but she said he had problems with it, and I accept and respect that. She ain't pullin' a LaToya on us lol

and Michael's legacy is in tact:

He has the highest grossing concert film of all time
5 of the biggest selling albums of all time, including THE best selling album
His autobiography was in the New York's Bestsellers List twice
40 Pop and R&B Top 20 hits
7 #1 albums

The legacy's doing just fine lol

But who are we? Who are we to know the family's happenings? When they had interventions and such? We are just fans/ the public. We have no right to know what happened between MJ and his family. It's funny because many MJ fans are going off assumptions.

Assumptions that his own family are trying to hurt MJ and his legacy. and we know he has sells down pact. I'm talking about what he will be remembered as. Many people view him differently and I think his fans are going a bit nuts trying to "save" his legacy.

EVERYBODY's going off assumptions lol

Nobody except the RABID fans (and I'm talking RABID) are saying Janet betrayed his brother (Now if we talkin' about other family members.... you know the deal lol )

One thing I hope people understand is this when it comes to Michael's fans. Alot of them have had to dealt with so much negativity these past couple of years for simply being fans so they tend to be overly defensive, and because so much bullshit has been said about Michael.....well, ya know neutral

Yeah and that's why I stop posting at MJJC and KOPD. Too much drama and insanity over there. I don't really care anymore. I'm an MJ and JJ fan equally anyways.
