janet.1814 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 In my head Dammn Baby just seems appropriate to perform, and maybe summin new?? any thoughts? Maybe Dammn Baby + The Great Forever? maybe her and missy might finally perform BIU... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bu. Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Nah. DB is cute but doesn’t really have a wow factor live. She’ll perform a medley of the hits. I’d prefer That’s The Way Love Goes to be involved tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laveaux Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I think a show about Billboard Charts will feature a performance of songs that charted extremely well on said charts. It should be something like her AMA performance but with better dancers, better transitions, better make-up, better music, a better outfit, maybe better hair? and a Janet that is in better shape. She is really about to eat that stage up 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is really about to eat that stage up I understand where ur coming from, but after coming off of the AMAs promoting her #1s album, then that tour, then going into Unbreakable your, with pretty much the same songs.... u don’t think Janet is tired of doing some of this hits? Even if the songs haven’t charted well, I think it would be refreshing to see something new performed. Plus is I wonder if there will be a tribute performance to her ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’s been doing them for 30 years though. I mean the sis ignored Europe again but I know she modified the hits to incorporate current songs such as Bodak Yellow etc. She can do stuff like that to keep things exciting. Imagine Escapade with a Finesse interpolation . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That AMA performance was NINE years ago. Songs can be executed different sonically with different transitions and different choreography...with all of that you can have a fresh, new performance. No ...you can look up past recipients who got the award for any questions and concerns you have. Of course Janet will be much different but it should give you an idea about what's about to happen. Don't overthink this...you will be setting yourself up to be disappointed and if that means I have to crush your delusional dreams/ideas right now...I can live with that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t have any expectations for this performance, I know Janet will slay (per usual), but being that she’s been keeping us on our toes lately, and giving us what we want, I have a feeling something diff will be happening 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkStormSC Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I’d love a new song to drop this Friday with Sunday’s performance being a mix of TTWLG, MYM, or another of her longer charting hits into the new song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaeh1213 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 This is just from a fuzzy memory from randomly watching last year's BBMAs, but I feel like when Cher performed in conjunction with receiving the same award, she did a big medley of hits with costume changes and everything. I can't imagine Janet will do much a costume change (other than, like taking off a jacket or something haha) throughout the performance. It'll def be a medley of hits (duh), but I hope it's a little more streamlined than instead of packing in snippets of as many songs as possible. I could see her focusing on State of the World/The Knowledge/RN, b/c the first two are so strong on the tour. And if she has a new song to debut (PLEASE GOD), I wouldn't be surprised if it was dance song with some sort of social justice theme, and it would be right at home in this medley and the SOTW tour era. But I feel like a new song should've/would've been released by now? Or, b/c the awards show is right on the heals of the janet.25 anniversary, it could be cool to see her honor/channel that era with a janet. album medley. These are just random thoughts/guesses that I've been overthinking about because I'm SO EXCITED. It'll prob just be a medley of her career-defining hits. Honestly, I'm just so happy to see her perform on TV, anything she does for this will be fine by me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarrylf Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 NOTHING from Unbreakable pls. From a fan perspective it's cute, but from a gp perspective, it always feels desperate when a Legend does a hits medley, and then squeeze in a song off their last album (that wasn't a hit) and released years before. I want a nice lil medley, I'd LOVE even if she didn't do multiples if she did just Rhythm Nation.......neither of the tributes that were given to her where that song was performed really brought it the way she BRINGS it. But I have NO expectations except to be SLAYED. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Im kinda feeling like some of you and Ive said it before those hit songs of hers she's done them so many times what's different now?

While she hadn’t had a huge chart smash, performing non hits wouldn’t even matter at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
