She did two shows at the venue I attended and both of them were sold out...with people begging to buy tickets outside the doors before the show started. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

Janet has always been VERY evasive and I think that has caused alot of problems for her,throughout her career.By now,she should know that it's best to be honest and upfront with the fans and the media.Otherwise,people will assume things.It's happening right now.She is,once again,smack dab in the middle of a public relations disaster. | |

But why is she postponing again to 2017. That makes absolutely no sense. So she is wanting to have a child at the age of 50 and she really thinks that her behind will want to get on stage in a year. Are you kidding me? That would be the time to take some time off and spend with your baby. It's like setting things to fail all over again. Just cancel the damn thing and move on. | |

Everyone Relax: Janet Jackson Isn’t Stealing Your Money After All

Filed Under Janet Jackson
Would-be concert goers are getting emotional over Janet Jackson’s recent tour date rescheduling, canceling and other recent announcements regarding the state of her health, her career and most recently, her decision to put things on hold to plan her future family with husband Wissam Al Mana.
Fans were angered this week over how ticket refund requests were rumored to be denied and took to Twitter to voice their frustration, with comments getting quite ugly with some taking it as far as to criticize the singer for stealing their money to fund her future baby shower and so on.
Given the fact that Jackson was vague about when (or if) she would be returning to touring, Ticketmaster sent an email saying that they were treating the concerts as postponed, so were not offering refunds in turn — i.e. fans had a legitimate reason to be less than happy with how everything was being handled because they had no idea if a tour would actually happen in the future and tickets weren't exactly inexpensive.
In Jackson's message thanking fans for their support and announcing the tour's "sudden change," she expressed her gratitude while leaving things vague saying, "I will see you soon." Luckily, after two days of confusion and anger from disappointed fans, Jackson’s camp and Ticketmaster have finally got it together and have stated that they will be honoring tickets purchased for rescheduled shows in 2017, when the tour will presumably will resume, and refunds also will be made available. Phew.
Thank goodness things didn’t escalate any further because it was starting to get ugly on Twitter. BET.com is your No. 1 source for Black celebrity news, photos, exclusive videos and all the latest in the world of hip hop and R&B music.

I'm actually shocked at all the apologists for her behaviour. She isn't going to get pregnant. This is ridiculous. One of the most unprofessional pop stars since Britney Spears. And at least Britney is playing her scheduled Vegas shows. | |

Ain't no apologists The atrocious antics by media and people who pass off as human beings on these social medias calling this woman every single foul name under the sun, and they were doing it before these shows were stopped Why in the world would she want to perform for a litany who has fronted in this way But the real issue aint even about these shows | |

She's supposed to be a professional in the music industry. She's cancelling her shows to "start a family" at 50? That's unprofessional and she deserves to be called that at least.

I wonder,who exactly is on Janet's team? Who is her manager? Whoever it is,they're doing a terrible job and it doesn't seem as if they're giving her any guidance at all. | |

Yeah like yours. Like one orger said she could've planned a family while she was on her four year hiatus when she was out of sight out of mind. I will repeat it again the first postponement announcement I know was this past Christmas eve right AFTER the announcement of the rock and roll hall of fame inductees and she didn't make the cut. She didn't have to say alot about it to the media, it still didn't mean she wasn't looking forward to it especially with Control being 30 years old and the fan vote on the RRHOF site. She came of out hiding because she thought she would be Prince of 2004 without the hustle and bustle he did that year. [Edited 4/9/16 14:02pm] | |

I don't see hate in this thread. I see an artist being called out for her unprofessional behavior. She cancelled her European dates a few weeks ago and made no formal statement to her fans about the cancellation. Now recently, she puts out a video announcement that she will be postponing her tour to start a family. At the very least, she should have expected that fans would going to ticketmaster wanting their money back. The handling of refunds should have been ironed out with her promoters before releasing that video statement. Alot of this could have been avoided. She has earned this unreliable and unprofessional reputation.

There is a way to do that without treating your fans like this. Keep in mind her last few tours( bar one) have suffered a simialr fate. If she wanted to live a normal life, celebrate and not fall victim as you say she could have remained in semi-retirement. | |

News came out today that the tour is delayed until 2017, and that tickets could be held onto and would be honored, or ticket holders could get a refund. Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking. | |

I definitely agree it could have and should have been handled better though I'm happy for her too. I got my refund today. Normally I would have hung onto it for the new date, but I spent a shitload on a bunch of tickets, that's a year away and the show is likely not going to even happen. Guess I got a good credit and a day off, one that was hard to get. I don't like the uncertainty of not knowing either but now we know. | |

To spread POSITIVITY of course, like I always do in EVERY thread. Somebodies got to do it. You don't.
I agree Janet didn't say the word pregnant YET. Even though her doctor has her on bed rest.
