But on another not , The love for Janet on that day was unprecedented The number of verified accounts from all walks of life that shared stories about janets music and influence was astonishing. I wish someone cateloged them . I just really hope someone around Janet read those tweets to her. Hope she really known that she is loved not just in the states but Worldwide. - Its important for Our Legends and Icons to know whilst they are still alive with us how much we love and appreciate them.
p.s i think we should trend another JANET APPRECIATION DAY on her birthday , it will help detach our appreciation for her from the superbowl stigma

I wouldn't call it respect, especially when you ran out and had unprotected sex with a stripper got her pregnant and we together, he could have done worse and passed on an STD. You're right adults can be bigger, grow and move on from petty things. What I would call it is familiarity, and I think Janet was really in looooovvvveeee with JD

So I just got in from the Baltimore show. This is her third best tour behind TVR and RWU respectively. I got there around 7:45 and the DJ was playing PYHO, I was kinda shocked. There was some jackass in the audience screaming to the DJ to play MJ, and I'm just like ugh. DJ played the Kaytranada remix of "If" and everyone seemed to like it. Then the DJ played "Remember The Time" and a bunch of other J5/MJ songs, and I was just over it and ready for the show to start. So Janet came out around 8:30. Delievered. The first half of the show just punched - hit after hit, just full energy nonstop. It might have been where I was sitting, but the music was too loud. I couldn't really hear Janet singing, but that didn't really matter. It's one thing to see Janet dance in videos, but to see it live is a vastly different experience. Her technical prowess through dance is truly unmatched. Her agility, coordination, and flexibility are still very sharp considering that she's 51. With a bit more control and energy, she could give DJ/20YO level of greatness. The way she communicates ideas through movement is surreal.
One thing that really stood out to me is that I notice a lot of legacy acts typically rely on the nostalgia of their music to carry their performances. The performance is that great, but the music is still good and people love the song(s). So they can kinda get away with giving a so-so performance. I feel like a lot of Janet's music is in a transition point to where she's not just performing hits, but she's performing bona fide classics. So Janet keeps the songs fresh by delivering new choreography, while keeping elements of the original routines in the performance. For example, the way she ends TTWLG. She keeps the little side step and the snaps with the "collapse" at the end, yet everything else is new choreography. I always have reservations about Janet doing AN(DS), but she murked that shit. Agility was just immaculate. Same with "Nasty", dear GAWD. MURKED that shit. Same with the AFY breakdown. "What About" is the reason why Janet is incontestably the greatest female entertainer ever. The storytelling of that performance is very hard to watch. And yes, I did get teary eyed. I think Janet needs a bit of improvement in areas where she's altered choreography, like "If", for example. I think she should focus more on showmanship - having dancers on stage telling us a story through movement. The second verse choreo is kinda "eh", if you get what I'm talking about. Same kinda with the new songs she did for the first time. She's gotta present them better, esp since it's the first time these songs are being performed. Like "Island Life". It was great that she did it, but she just sat on the steps the whole time. It was like "Okay, I guess ".
So basically, the greatness of the show lies in Janet keeping the show fresh by bringing new choreography to the songs, changing the set list, while maintaining elements that define "Janet Jackson". With more production (better wardrobe, visuals, etc), the show could've been so much better. I might need to re-watch the RN and janet. Tours, but as it stands, for me it's her best tour following TVR and RWU. I think I can now unmute Janet on Twitter, and raise my status from "casual listener" to "familiar with her work fan".

You know something quite interesting , I decided to just give up on commenting of Janets career decsions after the europde dates were cancelled and fans were always being attacked for "disagreeing" with her approach this ERA. . They were told to shut and be grateful for an ERA no one thought we would even get in the first place.
What i aways found amusing though is that fans that lived in the states mostly were always harshest at fans in Europe for being mad at janet for the lack of promotion .
What they didnt get is that I , like most fans that were following ticket sales in the tour section of janet.club could see that the tour dates were going to be cancelled . It really wasnt rocket science , I really have no idea what she and her team were thinking , They probably over estimated her her demand , or mistook her for michael jackson .
Her music has barely been played on international airwaves since ALL FOR YOU and to some extent Call on Me .
On top of that Janet is rarely in the public eye . She is black and over 45 in a very racist and ageist industry .
Her return one of the biggest music markets in the world to tour was commerated was by LYIIN IN BED TAKING SELFIE VIDEOS . When ticket sales were colder than antartica . No appearance on any show, no performance , NOTHING !
As if Live nation was going ti let her perform in half empty arenas. Laughable indeed .
While we are at it , can we ADMIT , how Nobody outside the fanbase thought BURN IT UP was a hot song . I mean I tried but KITY CATT MEOW MEOW not so cute on a song by two very mature women

good , at least burn it up is charting somewhere

It was well attendend, but not sold out . And the setup she used is for capacity of 16,000. she used end stage 2 https://www.saitama-arena.co.jp/e/facility.html
Those who bought tickets selected them from this setup. Madonna is also playing two dates there almost same setup
-
Sold out show in Japan. I don't know how many people were there but the Saitama Super Arena holds a capacity of 37,000. Someone on facebook said that Arena can hold 55,000 standing only but they may have mistaken that for the Tokyo Dome.
the setup janet went for is taking 16,000 . The arena has many setups
