  1. Who?! Janet should hire a factious character to help fix her rape case in England to get back her endorsements and fans? 

    Oh lord

    1) Kobe Bryant's rape victim wouldn't testify in [criminal] court so the case was thrown out

    2) Kobe/NBA basically paid his way out 

    3) Kobe is a basketball player. Not a musician

    4) Kobe isn't on tour

    5) Olivia Pope is a character played by the very talented Kerry Washington who worked along side Janet Jackson in "For Colored Girls"

    6) Kobe didn't lose his fans bc we live in a rape-culture society. 

    She is not a fictitious character and Kobe did lose fans he was booed everywhere he went and his jerseys were burned. He's  not the only person she's gotten back on track. Her name is Judy Smith and she is great at what she does which is fixing things 

  2. If Janet starts this tour again, it would have to start in Europe...HAS to! She lives here for a start. Getting up to do a Vegas residency well not go down well 

    they seemed to be over it in Europe. She needs to hire Olivia Pope. She did the impossible with Kobe Bryant after his rape case. He lost all his endorsements and fans and she gotbhm twice as many endorsements and his fan base back 

  3. Let me clear myself up, I agree this is a part of a plan set out by her team. I agree completely, and if there is a tour I think she will be more open and engaged around doing that project. This is why I've been saying - she was doing something different before & is trying something different this time to counter what did not work before. I don't think it was because of Wissam, I think Janet herself is equally private and since she had been successfully living in privacy and it originally created a buzz about what is she doing & remember the wanted/missing poster? She tried to play that angle because she felt it could work for her...it didn't so this is a regrouping. That's my opinion.

    My apologies, you're right. So scratch RWU & Discipline. Everything else is what she had to promote, but the entire conversation about her using Twitter & social media mostly for promotion came from some fan claiming Janet used to be active on social media - when we all know that's never been her thing.

    so you don't think the all female dance squad, those hot ass outfits she wore or not smiling had nothing to do with him or his influence?  You think all these media outlets including ET whom she has a deal with is making all this stuff up about her not being able to be herself with him. 

    There was a quote from Janet in vibe mag I believe during 20 YO where she is asked if she strips for her man and she says she does if that's what he wants and you have to give the man what he wants to keep him happy.  That's her thinking. 

  4. Let's put up a bet, after all the fuss dies down...after she reveals her next venture - whether it be an interview, music, or another tour (relatively soon 6 months) she will be going right back into that shell she always had been. 

    For UB, I do not believe they had anything to do with Wissam. She was trying to do her business a different way that did not work for her. Now she's shifting directions. 

    the quote below is why I think it will be different. Her team has a plan. She is exposing herself at her terms. Giving us what she wants us to see. I think it will be the same if the tour starts back up. I don't think she can use the same no promo formula this time around considering how things ended. 

    The change had everything to do with him. The strategy at the time worked well until all of the cancellations. At that point the whole silence thing ruin it because there was no communication with ticket holders especially in Vegas and Europe. 

    This week has been a well coordinated tactical media strike by Janet.  Her teams both legal and marketing seem to just be in hyperdrive.

     

     

  5. In 2011, there was the UCAP tour the most of the tweets says it was 57 tweets...think about that. When I clicked on the data the biggest amount was 7, 7 tweets you're calling active. Then in 2009, she had 44 tweets for the YEAR. Are seeing how ridiculous this is? Thats 2 tweets a month at best & most of it would be promo, but she didn't even tweet that often...that was right around RWU tour. She was never, really active on social media. Ya'll have to stop. 

    Well, if you claim she was more active during tours - then she was not, then that would be called difference. I remember the entire time you being the person who continued to vilify the situation because of him being Islamic. We have seen pictures of Janet out and about buying flowers...in the baby shop...we've seen her. By herself and with others. She wasn't a prisoner. She hasn't said anything, everything is speculation.

    yep I sure did and she is out and about now after the split so my theory is still proven. I am not talking about her being in social media during the previous tours. I'm talking about her behavior in general.  She was not in the shell she was in during the Unbreakable tour.  She may have not been a prisoner in the literal sense but she is out in these streets like she just got on parole after a 5 year bid 

  6. Those who say bad things about him sometimes forget that marrying her might not have been the easiest route for him to take either. Marrying a twicely-divorced, middle-aged, controversial, American pop star night not be have been the most traditional thing to do in his culture. I like to believe that the two found true love against all odds.

    oh poor thing. Sounds like torture marrying a woman like Janet. Give me a fucking break. If it wasn't an easy route why waste her time and his by marrying her. He was dumb for thinking he could change her to fit his world. True love should allow people who are different to coexist and learn from each other making the relationship stronger.  Not this one sided nonsense he was doing. He could learn a lot from Janet's culture just as she could of his 

  7. She was trying something new. It didn't work. Now she's trying something new. Hopefully it works. Giving us that message from the studio & not being seen. She was trying to live in mystique & instead of doing it right...it kinda didn't help her. 

    It has nothing to do with Wissam - she dated him during UCAP. 

    lol whatever you say. To try something new you actually have to be doing something. She wasn't doing anything. She dated him during UCAP she wasn't his wife.  Thats how most hardliners in that culture are. Women aren't to be seen and she wasn't. Now she's free

  8. Y'all do remember Janet before Wissam right? When she was ducking paps, going through back doors to avoid crowds, never using social media, disappearing from public eye...

    It feels like, JD made y'all think Janet loved the spotlight. She has NEVER been a very public person. This is strictly playing into the fact that so many "fans" were frustrated with her privacy & wanting to hear from her. 

    she was never that closed up during an active tour. Taking pictures of the back of her head and wrists. Dodging old friends backstage. That was all new she was always private when she was doing private things but not while touring

  9. That sounds great...only problem is....Will Wissam agree to let his son be taken to Vegas for months on end. 

    well she agreed to everything he asked of her so he should agree. He knew who she was when he married her and when he donated his sperm. He needs to make the adjustments if he wants to see his child not her. 

    The best damage control would be for her to do a Vegas residency. They will provide all the bells and whistles. Her & Eissa can be stabilized with somewhere to live, all she would have to do is go downstairs and work. She would get enough breaks and all. She doesn't have to travel the world & get people to buy tickets. She doesn't need to worry about 3rd party ticket sales giving her a bad name. She can do some minor press - print - discussing being back, "slimming" down, motherhood at 50, not divorcing but taking some time, & liberation. 

    A residency is the best way to combat the trust she's lost with touring. 

    that sounds nice but you still have a lot of fans who have held onto their tickets like she asked them to thinking they would see her in their city. Everyone  cant make it to Vegas so that would be more fan disappointment.  People are very forgiving and forgetful if you present your story well. if she gets the right team she can smooth this over in no time.

     Meet and greets have to be in each venue with those VIP tickets. They need to try and do something for people who bought the album and purchased tickets with the code.  She has to do an interview in some form. Perform on TV and open up about issues with needing to please men before pleasing yourself. A lot of women would feel her on that. It's real. 

  10. 01. She said before she would be back and we all know where it ended (Rock WItchu).
    02. What GAME said is true. There have been placeholders for months now!
    Some for december 2017 others for july 2018.
    03. Gil always says a lot but never mean anything. I don't believe a single word he says for a long time now...
    He works with her and its her personal friend, he would never let something like this leak! Of course we will say NO or WAIT FROM HER LIPS.

    04. I do believe she really is under some contractual obligation with Live Nation. But she can always pay the bills, let it go and start over!

    Personally, I always wanted her to take some time being a mom and get back on the road a few years from now.
    ENJOY THE MOMENT. And I also believe, now they separated
    , she might start something from scratch.

    Unbreakable is all about her private and love live with Wissam... Its about her fans and family too, but I don't know...
    For the first time I believe, if she decides to restart with Unbreakable, there will be a real revamp on the show, visuals, marketing and stuff.

    Let's wait and see... But I think Unbreakable is over and she will move on.


     

    That too. Just getting the show back on track. Dancers, wardrobe, staging and promotion. 5 months is not that far away. Seems like there would have been some official notice of this tour especially with all the damage control they need to do after postponing and not addressing fans who were not able to refund due to 3rd party purchases. 

    This will either be a new album or a greatest hits tour. I don't see how the theme Unbreakable works now. 

  11. wissam is a hypocrite. he openly dated janet for years while she was still doing her, and nobody believes they wasnt having sex before marriage. his early pre-marriage interviews he never mentioned religion to the point some fans wondered if he was even a practicing muslim. they get married and janet pretty much disappears, his post-marriage interviews he claims to be super religious and his faith is so important he even refuses to do business with companies unless they respect his islamic culture. i believe this dude did a complete change on janet and she tried to adapt but the baby changed things, she probably objected to some of his child rearing beliefs.

    I'm thinking someone in his family got in his ear and told him to tone it down. Stop smoking. Stop cuddling with her in public. I'm still amazed that she stayed after what he did to his employee after she was raped. If that's not a red flag I don't know what is. Fans tried to chalk it up to it just being his culture but there should be no conditions to rape. Even the statement his company released to defend themselves showed no compassion or remorse for the victim 

  12. That would be an extremely painful interview to watch. Unless she comes out with some project or something that completely overshadows the marriage stuff, any journalist/talk show host that Janet agrees to sit down with, no matter how much they know better ahead of time, will try to ask her about her personal life; things she doesn't want to talk about. And we would have to watch her bob and weave and dodge their questions. Which she is extremely good at, even if it's just her saying, "Next question." And as interesting and funny as those interviews are, how much satisfaction are we actually going to get? We all wanna know the personal stuff but she is hardly going to offer that up in a sit down unless its one of those tell all type things with Barbara Walters or O. 

    She can just do it in print. Some of her most engaging and informative interviews have been done with magazines.

  13. Just wanted to share that we're not going to "get sexy Janet back".

    While she doesn't have to clothe herself from head to toe, she is fine doing age appropriate music and wardrobe.

    I think it's very selfish and demeaning to expect her to do what she's already done. If you want sexy Janet, go watch the past tours.

    She's still radiant and beautiful, no matter what.

    she was sexy in gowns and sweat pants not just the skimpy stuff.  


    "The source continues, “For years, Janet tried to adapt to his culture. Since it’s not a culture she grew up with, it’s been challenging for her. She often felt she disappointed Wissam.”"

    I mean... if this is true, she is better off without him imo. I want J to be happy and with someone she can be relaxed and herself with. I hope this will lead to better things for her and her son...

    well he got dragged on entertainment tonight. If any of what they said is true she has wasted 5 years of her life with this dude. How do you disrespect Katherine.  

  14. you think that bc you were told to think that by the Great Depressed and the media

     ? 

    no he probably thinks that because Janet moved all her shit out of his house and got her own place. That means I can't even stand to live in the same home as you. A lot of separated people still live in the same house. She moved. That says a lot

  15. I have a hard time believing that after suffering physical and emotional abuse from James, foolishness and betrayal from Rene and whatever the hell Mauldin did to cause their relationship to end that, Janet would really deal with a husband that was controlling. All before Janet was young and broken and not used to dating but when she got with Wissam she was grown AF and healed from all the hurt in her past. It just doesn't make sense to me that after going through all of that growth, she would find her self back in the same type of unhealthy relationship. So, if that was the case; if he was "controlling," then maybe he did just become controlling throughout her pregnancy and into the beginning of little E's life. Otherwise, I don't believe it. At all.

     

    Granted, we are creatures of habit. And we seek what we're used to because its comfortable, but no. She's too self aware for that shit. I just don't see it. 

    that's actually what makes it believable. She was in a vulnerable place when they started dating and she has always had issues with image and self confidence regardless of the growth. That's why I always felt the covering up thing was dangerous. A woman with body image issues and you cover her and not exalt her.  Women in mentally and physically abusive relationships are no different than addicts. They have a dependency and they always go back.

  16. um when did you call it? What did you say?

    I have said all along that he was controlling and at some point she would grow tired of being Susie homemaker.  When she wasn't taking photos with people or talking I blamed him and his influence on her. The whole Diamond collection thing is all him. She doesn't even wear earrings or jewelry like that and all of a sudden she's pushing these overpriced diamonds picked by Africans that look like her.  

    What I wanna know is who spilled the beans to The Daily Mail. Gil was just there and I'll bet Janet spoke to him about this. Not saying that he's the one but his "wait for it" tweet is odd now. Why was this made public seeing as how they are supposedly only separated not Divorcing. 

    maybe she wanted to get out ahead of whatever storm may be coming from his end. He is not being painted in the best way so maybe she wanted to fire her shots before he did.
