Im so tired of the SHOW.............

Now its Janets Breasts, before it was Britney kissing Madonna, then it was Beyonce stripping and dancing in a circle of fire, and then their was Christina Aguilera stripping out of her nun outift and singing DIRTY. Is it me or cant ANY female performer get mentioned for their performance without doing something like this. Are Norah and Alicia Keys are the saving grace for Women and WHY arent more Women trying to fight instead of feeding the beast. Sure I think Britney and Beyonce are HOT, but save all that for photos or magazines, This is why Music today has no life, as the song says "HIP TODAY...you'll Be gone tomorrow"

its entertainment.

and at the super bowl you are catering to a bunch of drunk guys...and their girlfriends...do a great pop song and show some skin. its not like any of these girls walk around in their daily life half naked. its show business...they're showing...

i think its extreme, yes, but i don't think it's bad or wrong. its just a way of entertaining and keeping people on their toes.

Well they look hot, if they do not have a problem than maybe its the spectator who cant deal. nod

I understand the frustration but I tell you I don't really think I want to see Nora Jones shaking her ta ta's anywhere. You have to think of it as Performance Art, Alicia and Nora are not on that level, they have a different flavor. Now Janet, Britney, and Beyonce are Performers', there is the key difference.
Hot, like hot wings with hot chocolate in hell. Ah huh!

But the point is NO ONE is making NEWS with their Music anymore. And it really takes away from any of these women from being taken seriously. I mean take JANET for example, its all about SHOW, when I listen to her Cd's latley i skip through them, and wait for the track where she will moan likes she is having SEX. My point is I feel bad for Female artists because they really have nothing else to fall back on. As good as BEYONCE and AGUILERA can sing its still about what they wear and do. And Britney and JLO and Janet and Madonna, well none of them have strong voices at all and there appeal is strictly for SIGHT not for the Ears, even though Early Madonna and Janet showed promise.

if either janet or madonna were all show, they're careers would have been over ages ago. they are great performers. and janet has been moaning on her records since 'funny how time flies (when you're having fun)'...it's nothing new. if you go to a janet concert, yeah she has a few numbers that are very sexual...but she also has the fun goofy sets and performances, she has the slow songs that she just sits and sings , she has a lot of variety...it's not just sex. you make it sound like it is one way or the other. yes, sex sells. yes, people get more notoriety and success from being sexy. janet is talented enough (and madonna by the way) to incorporate it into the whole picture. if you think she's only doing sexual performances, you've missed some of the best stuff!

Well this is my major complaint, performers seem to dictate what is PLAYED. I could care less if JANET wants to flash a crowd, her music is crap. It is a RARE thing for a NORAH jones or an Alicia Keys to get through. But for every NORAH or ALICA they're are about 100 of Female artists out there or artists in general that dont get any play because they wont WALK the WALK. And just because its ALWAYS been like that doesnt mean WE follow it.

i find it very difficult to believe that janet has sold millions and millions of records because she shows skin. to even suggest that is simply ridiculous.

ok, so you don't like her style.

next.

Agreed. Janet and Madonna have both been amazing performers in this business for decades, and have nothing to prove. They still have people talking, and Janet did exactly what she set out to do with this performance... she got attention. I thought it was great! Janet's boob sure looked good, too, so don't hate! smile
'Cause your friends don't dance, and if they don't dance... well, they're no friends of mine.

Well I did see JANET on tour during the JANET CD and yes its all show, most of it was Lypsynched, as was the Mariah Carey concert I saw recenlty too about 80% lypsynched

can anyone sing like that while dancing? no. that's why people go to see her for an entertaining performance and great dance routines. they go for the art of dance and for a great time. if you want brilliant vocals, go see someone who sits at a piano or stands by a guitar all night. each style has it's place. to say something is crap because you don't dig it is a little too narrow.

Exaclty the POINT she got attention, because her MUSIC will not get the attention. Thats my point, sure all of these women are performers but its always never about their music its about what they do or wear or flash.

i think its extreme, yes, but i don't think it's bad or wrong. its just a way of entertaining and keeping people on their toes.

But the point is NO ONE is making NEWS with their Music anymore. And it really takes away from any of these women from being taken seriously. I mean take JANET for example, its all about SHOW, when I listen to her Cd's latley i skip through them, and wait for the track where she will moan likes she is having SEX. My point is I feel bad for Female artists because they really have nothing else to fall back on. As good as BEYONCE and AGUILERA can sing its still about what they wear and do. And Britney and JLO and Janet and Madonna, well none of them have strong voices at all and there appeal is strictly for SIGHT not for the Ears, even though Early Madonna and Janet showed promise.

if either janet or madonna were all show, they're careers would have been over ages ago. they are great performers. and janet has been moaning on her records since 'funny how time flies (when you're having fun)'...it's nothing new. if you go to a janet concert, yeah she has a few numbers that are very sexual...but she also has the fun goofy sets and performances, she has the slow songs that she just sits and sings , she has a lot of variety...it's not just sex. you make it sound like it is one way or the other. yes, sex sells. yes, people get more notoriety and success from being sexy. janet is talented enough (and madonna by the way) to incorporate it into the whole picture. if you think she's only doing sexual performances, you've missed some of the best stuff!
Agreed. Janet and Madonna have both been amazing performers in this business for decades, and have nothing to prove. They still have people talking, and Janet did exactly what she set out to do with this performance... she got attention. I thought it was great! Janet's boob sure looked good, too, so don't hate! smile
Exaclty the POINT she got attention, because her MUSIC will not get the attention. Thats my point, sure all of these women are performers but its always never about their music its about what they do or wear or flash.

correction.

for YOU its never about their music.

many, many people enjoy janet jackson, madonna, britney, etc. for their music.

as a matter of fact, isn't there an article posted in this forum regarding HIGH DEMAND for the new janet jackson single? demand that is so high they are pushing the releas up by weeks?!

hmmm, sounds like people are interested in the music.

Now its Janets Breasts, before it was Britney kissing Madonna, then it was Beyonce stripping and dancing in a circle of fire, and then their was Christina Aguilera stripping out of her nun outift and singing DIRTY. Is it me or cant ANY female performer get mentioned for their performance without doing something like this. Are Norah and Alicia Keys are the saving grace for Women and WHY arent more Women trying to fight instead of feeding the beast. Sure I think Britney and Beyonce are HOT, but save all that for photos or magazines, This is why Music today has no life, as the song says "HIP TODAY...you'll Be gone tomorrow"

Well I did see JANET on tour during the JANET CD and yes its all show, most of it was Lypsynched, as was the Mariah Carey concert I saw recenlty too about 80% lypsynched

can anyone sing like that while dancing? no. that's why people go to see her for an entertaining performance and great dance routines. they go for the art of dance and for a great time. if you want brilliant vocals, go see someone who sits at a piano or stands by a guitar all night. each style has it's place. to say something is crap because you don't dig it is a little too narrow.

Well I saw MYA recently in NYC and she sang all show, and yes she did dance and she can DANCE way better than JLO or JANET or BRITNEY would ever dream of.

HELLO?! mya uses a clip track just like janet! are you out of your mind?

Oh, no, not at all, because lastdecember doesn't enjoy their music, clearly nobody does. How ignorant can you get?

U see u totally missed what the point of the whole subject was but thats ok. And for the Record rumour has it that MADONNA will be doing something even more risque at the Grammies this year, because U know its all about their music. And for the record I own all of these artists work and my point is not whether they are good or not, its about can they EVER get recognized for their music to NOT have strip to get NOTICED nowadays, do not deny that artists like a Janet or Madonna feel the OLD creepin in on them and thats why they do it.

can you say "ray of light"? grammy winning. no sexual innuendo. no nudity.

can you say "nutty professor" or "poetic justice"? two very successful films with no nudity and janet was given props for both.
