I hope this tour goes well. On a personal level, Janet is my number 1 and I want the world to remember her greatness and because it would help me believe racism and sexism can be overcome one small fight at a time. But also as a fan, I love and respect her so fucking much. I realize she doesn't like the constant public eye but she LOVES being on stage. And if this tour does well, I could see her going back out every so often into the future.

The basics without exclusive access are back to talking: Radar Online

Janet Jackson is planning revenge on Wissam Al Mana — and her sexy “State of the World” tour will have him fuming, RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal.

Jackson, 51, is set to start her 56-city comeback tour on Sept. 7, and insiders tell Radar that her performances will be as “nasty” as possible to get back at her 42-year-old soon-to-be ex!

“The show is going to be so hot they may have to ban kids,” the insider told Radar. “Janet is planning a bevy of sexy moves that will include lap dances, where she will pull random fans — male and female — on stage for some white-hot fun.”

“Her fans will get everything they’ve been previously accustomed to — and more,” the insider added, noting that her new routines are extremely “raunchy!”

Radar exclusively reported that the “All For You” hitmaker started losing her baby weight and hitting the rehearsal studios in preparation for the tour earlier this month.

Jackson and the Qatari billionaire tied the knot in 2012, and she was quick to conform to his strict interpretation of Islam as she spent five years draped in burkas. They welcomed their son Eissa in January 2017, but his birth wasn’t enough to save their marriage.

“Janet repressed so much that she nearly died of anxiety and boredom,” the insider explained.

The couple decided to divorce in April 2017, and is still battling over custody of their son.

It's very sad. I used to be a pharm tech from 2003 to 2011, and I saw the increasing amount of pain medications - CII/Narcotics, no less- being prescribed. It was crazy the back and forth we went through between patients, hospitals, insurance companies, law enforcement, etc. about the questionable prescribing we kept seeing. And when the government woke up to the problem and started putting pressure on doctors and hospitals, a lot of the people who were already hooked switched to heroin as the closest thing they could get. It pains me to see how many people have been affected.. It has also been very telling to me because as an lgbt person of color, I've lost friends to party drugs over the years and seen people thrown in jail indefinitely over pot. And as bad as the response has been with this issue, it's still been WAY more compassionate and better handled because it's hitting middle and upperclass America.

I think she was just mentioning artists she perceived as presenting androgynous or who cross dressed. Janet was a tomboy, but always a very FEMME one. Lol.

I wish. It'd be the only reason for me to watch live instead of DVR. GOT for the win! Lol.

Taylor is a guilt pleasure of mine. I loved her "Red" era (I knew you were trouble, WANGBT). It's the only time I've seen her live. I liked last era, but I thought it was a step down. Hopefully, the music is still good because I'm not looking forward to more preaching feminism while starting cat fights.

Luv!

I just hope there's a new tour booklet. I used to keep keychains when I was younger but booklets and Vip lanyards are the only things I try to get now. And a lot of artists stopped doing booklets.

maybe Unbreakable or SKB. 

when the idea of a Bruno/Janet collar came up earlier this summer, the first song I thought of was "Locked Out of Heaven." She would sound (perform) sooooo well on a song like that.

Oh, and I don't mind her milking "Again." It's from her first movie, a #1, and Oscar nominated. I would LOVE to hear 24play and/or Everytime, though. 

The Littles have gotten so big! And I'm excited to have at least 2 male dancers. December (Columbia, SC) can't come soon enough for me! 

I would hope she'd show up at the VMAs. I don't think they have anyone/thing big this year. Poor Katy up there hosting trying to salvage this era. 

Feel it boy. At the airport. *random*

The Velvet Rope by far for me. I'm also fond of Unbreakable and Rock Witchu.

A little random, but Peppermint popped out some "If" choreography on Drag Race this week.https://youtu.be/JLu71CsgKoU?t=1m9s

Happy Birthday, Janet!!!

Ugh. I still have my tickets from the original date. Trying to decide if I want to plunk the $250 a piece to do the hospitality upgrade.

JANET JACKSON: STATE OF THE WORLD TOUR - VIP PACKAGES

Happy Birthday!!!

I wouldn't mind a younger but set act: Little Mix, Nick Jonas, Demi Lovato, Jojo.

I don't know why but I just assumed those were the Little's on the tour poster and they were coming back. I do hope there are a couple male dancers added, too.

During the first go round, I always found better tickets with the album pre-sale than with Amex. I'd go ahead and check when it opens tomorrow. I wish there was a way of knowing what tickets are already taken.
