And I know you're going to respond with your two or three decent Britney songs since she's been out, so just go by these hits that Janet put out in that same amount of time:

Say You Do

Control

What Have You Done For Me Lately

The Pleasure Principle

Nasty

Let's Wait Awhile

When I Think of You

Rhythm Nation

Miss You Much

Come Back to Me

Escapade

Black Cat

Love Will Never Do (Without You)

State of the World

Escapade


Five years and we've gotten:

I'm A Slave 4 U
...Baby One More Time
and
Toxic

Tremendous output from this woman!


I'd add "Overprotected" (even though it wasn't a hit by any strech of the imiganation) and maybe "Crazy" too on Britney's list, but that's about it. Not even close.

It's ok. smile At least someone read enough into it to change it.And anyone can read my real quote.It didn't make me mad or anything.Thank you for speaking up though. But um,yeah I don't say offensive words like that, so if any blatant misuse of a word to describe a female body part shows up in a "quote" of mine,don't believe the hype. But changing other's words is a little childish,that is what comes with being able to erase and use parts of quotes. Ok chat on.

I like Janet Better Any Day. Brittney is a Pig! Takes off her shoes and has Skanky Dirty Toes. Yucky Nails. Plus she's Outta Shape for a Young Girl. Janet is Beautiful.

I can't figure out why I keep comin' back and readin' this thread (but I do)...
...But now I really have something to say, I'm not gonna even touch on talent, longevity or any of that...but I do wanna talk about sex appeal...I prefer Britney and this is why...She can preform on stage or in a video and look like a complete slut or she can do an interview or another apperance and look like the girl next door. Janet hasnt looked like the girl next door in years. She was so much more attractive, to me, in her thicker days. She looks a little overdone now. I know someone is gonna bring up boob jobs..this and that..but nobody can deny that Britneys face hasnt changed...Janets has.. not that changing faces is a crime...but it should atleast be an improvement, and IMO, Janets is too much. I wont deny her slammin' ass body...but she seemed a little more real to me back in the day.

to me, she's lost more appeal because she seems like an airhead. like she's got a dozen mood suppressants circulating through her brain at any given moment, and she seems like a total airhead with nothing to say in just about every interview since about 2000.

No thanks. I think I'll go with what I know (ie. the proof that I've never seen her touch a damn instrument).

I like Janet...well I used to.. but sometimes I think she is a bit "off track and confused" I mean she needs to stop trying to be a cross between beyonce and brittney and just be herself. Listen she may have done all off those naughty girl next door type things before the youngins ( I think we all agree on that) arrived but there is a time and place to move forward with your career. You show the youngsters how it is done now is the time for you to do something different.

It just seems to me that she has become comfortable with the "usual type songs" the "usual type look" and the same old dance moves. Nice but we are all kinda gettiging bored with that. and those of us who do not remember that she did this stuff back in the day are not interested in seeing her as much as we are in seeing Brittany or Beyonce. Sorry that is just the way it goes.

That makes me very sad... to see Janet just doing the same old same old when there is soo much more she could be doing or at least trying. i get the feeling that someone in her camp is saying "if it aint broke don't fix it" and I think that is shame. she has talent and surely she must get bored with the things she is doing now.

She has legions and legions of fans who will love and support her.. I just wish she would offer them something a bit more than what she has so far.

I have noticed that the recent photos of her that I have seen she comes up lighter shade of brown every time I see a picutre of her. The focus is now on her ass??? I mean come on Janet! we knew you had these things before honey, we have not forgotten that. You were fine then and you are still fine now. I dunno i just sense a touch of desperation in some of the promotional things she is doing. sooooo unnecessary for a woman who has proven herself already.

Don't get me wrong I like Janet I just see this as a slippery slope for her and I do not want to see her sell herself short.

i agree. i saw the interview she did on BET a couple weeks ago, and she was saying that she always wanted to do an odd album comprised of things like Brazillian jazz and some other things that were more adventerous (for her, anyway), and that she always wanted to call it DamitaJo.

but then.... she says she went ahead and called this one DamitaJo instead. i'd much rather hear an album of different styles from her, than the same old thing for the 4th time in a row. it's almost as if she's resigned to the fact that she's never going to do anything different, so she just went ahead called this one DamitaJo because she knows she's never going to take any risks. and i guess she really couldn't come up with any other ideas (for the album or the title) and she'd ran out of ways to title her albums after her own name biggrin

OK..point taken...let me approach this differently..Britney may be dumb as a box of rocks..I'll give you that..but I know neither of these ladies on a personal or intellectual level, so my opinion was not based on that. I'll go ahead and point out my own roodboi shortcomings..my opinion was based purely on physical attributes....Bluntly, if I had to share an orgasm wit' one of 'em, it would be Britney. I could care less about any afterglow conversation wit' her...she could talk about nuclear physics or the power gf green M&M's...who cares???

The difference between Brit and Janet imo is Britney is really sexy and Janet just don't seem to understand what sexy means...

exactly! I remember years ago,in an interview,Janet said that one of her dreams was to do a jazz album someday.Now,I'm not suggesting that she would be successful in this endeavor,but it would certainly be a bold move,and would gain her alot more artistic credibility.And I think her fans would welcome the change.But I think she just doesn't wanna take any risks,so she sticks to her tried-and-true formula.....R&B dance tracks with naughty lyrics.Musically,she seems to be just going through the motions.

i really enjoy both women. i enjoy janet a lot more but britney is fun also. i don't own any of britney's cds except for "in the zone", so that must say something...but i don't knock anyone that does own more (or all) of britney's stuff. i would say the major difference is one was a pioneer while the other has been heavily influenced. britney may aspire to be like madonna but in all actuality she has molded her career plainly after janet's. nothing wrong with that...you may as well copy the best. flattery is the biggest compliment, no?

what bothers me is that we all feel the need to compare all of these women. its like there can't be more than one popular female on radio. we can like britney, madonna, janet, christina...they are not the same and they are not really interchangeable. music should be fun, right? all this competing (and oh yes, i'm often guilty of it too) takes away that fun.

i don't think people knocked joan baez, joni mitchell, judy collins or carly simon for having simmilar styles so what is the problem here?


Basically I agree with everything that you said. The point I was trying to make is that Janet has much more credibility than Britney. I don't understand why that is.
