  1. at this point she's in a difficult place - 

    if she postpones the already once postponed tours in the U.S to come back to Europe - that'll piss everyone off,

    if she doesn't - she won't be back in Europe for another 6 month and, unless she gets those tickets up on sale ASAP...people are gonna be doing other stuff

  2. Prince isn't even close to Janet when it comes to visuals. His ONLY signature move, as far as visuals is holding the guitar, and doing a split. Sorry, but Janet's visuals are far more intricate.

    perhaps, but prince sold out his UK shows last year within minutes. literally

  3. oh get off your fucking hippie high horse. "Wahh fur.. Wahhhh Dubai".. 

    Janet toured in a country where innocent black men get shot by local shitty police monthly. Or a country where women's reproduction rights are decided by old men

    At the end of the day.. That doesn't matter. It's about exposure, prestige, and it is their Super Bowl 

    go rim an elephant

  4. It's a beautiful country to live in and make money. I was just there last month. It's not perfect by any means, but they aren't exactly sexually profiling gays and executing them. 

    There's plenty of gay locals and tourists living there, getting it on, just not in the open. And I KNOW folks are knocking boots behind doors. My only issue was no porn is allowed in the country. :(

    that was your only issue? .... oh well, just be glad you're not only of the women who are imprisoned for reporting rape.

    my comment was more meaning that, dubai and its society are fairly at odds with Janet, a lot of her sexual lyrics and tolerance of homosexuality etc.. so seems odd. but, i imagine she lives in quite a rich bubble and has limited contacted with ordinary people in dubai.

  5. to be honest I wonder what she's doing performing/living in a country where homosexuality can get you the death penatly, or deportation if you're a foreigner., and where heterosexual sex outside of marriage is a crime, and where an australian woman living there was given 8 months in jail for having sex outside marriage after she REPORTED BEING RAPED.

  6. Have you seen clips of her shows?  Janet doesn't have a huge set up....it's just the stage.  No big production or elaborate sets runways that reach out into the audience.  You don't have to go to her show....it's as simple as that. 

    i've seen tons of clips of her show, i watched them in high anticipation of seeing her in london, then she cancelled on me.

  7. I just wanna throw in the fact that when I saw Janet in San Francisco in October, the venue she played at only fit about 5k people, and she still put on the full scale show (pyro, stairs, Jumbotron, etc).. So hopefully a 5k seat venue will/should be big enough to do her full arena-type show..

    ok well that sounds alright - the only reason I said that is because from the online youtube videos of her last show at the albert hall in London, the show was no doubt good, but it seems quite basic in terms of spectacle, whereas the videos from the unbreakable tour seem really full on and well put together- like a proper pop concert that you'd expect from any big name in music.

  8. this is what i'm afraid of. Especially as someone in the last thread mentioned that for the casual concert goers who aren't big fans they're probably gonna be like "hell no" not after I was cancelled on before.

    well yeah - and the tour as it stands now suits a big arena - it looks like a big, impactful show. - if she comes to the UK and performs in a smaller venue like the albert hall in London, a lot of the OOMPH will be lost out of the show. - i don't know what to think about it... it'll be september because she comes back.....are the tickets gonna be the same price the second time they go on sale? she can guarantee people won't be planning to travel from distances to see her as that would include hotel/travel and too risky... 

  9. agreed... But I mean if the options were smaller show or no show, which do you think her die-hard euro fans would prefer? Hopefully she can still do arenas, but maybe just not so many shows..

    yeah... but she's got shows planned up until end of August in the states, so European fans ain't getting anything for another 6 months at least. If she comes to the UK with the tour again, I will buy tickets, but will be wary of her cancelling again, and also, fear that many people won't be interested in buying tickets a second time 6 months later.

  10. Hopefully they get rescheduled to smaller venues if the true reason for the cancellation was lack of sales.. AND hopefully the European buyers won't be worried about buying tix (again) to see her..

    this makes sense but i can't help but think the impact of how good the show looks, would be reduced in a smaller venue.

  11. For your Debbie Downers.. She said the same thing in December and DELIVERED! 

     

     

    well... while this is good news....i worry... how many of the fans that have been cancelled on do you think are going to buy tickets A SECOND TIME?

    if low sales were the problem the first time...well....

  12. I criticize those who have unrealistic expectations

    Janet is an independent artists.. and as long as she's an indy.. The things she did in the past are gone.

    I don't care about charts.. I still loved Damita Jo for what it's worth.. I still love 20 YO.. I love Janet Jackson (the album)... And I appreciate Dread Street. 

    Yes Jodi.. We know.. You've been repeating the same thing over and over and over again for the last 9 months.

    Why do you care if it "costed" her fans "heartache blah blah blah"... Didn't you go to a concert in the States? I think Jodi should worry more about Jodi

    you think an explanation or an apology is an unrealistic expectation?

    liar. you're an ass kisser and you're bullshitting and everyone here knows it

  13. oh? Odd that you're speaking for me. I hate this era? Nope. Sorry #NotSorry. I love this era, the album and I will support and love Janet 

    Janet never said this "era" was for the fans... She said the album was... Please pay attention

    You know why i love this era.. Bc Janet proved to the world that she's still force.. She proved to the haters that she doesn't need promo to sell and album. She proved to fickle "fans" that she didn't retire. She proved to the world that she can still create great records and perform amazing shows.

    and if you deny that ^ then ask yourself.. "Why am I here?"

    why her 17 european shows all cancelled then?

    madonna still manages, 

    mariah sold out the o2

  14. not really. Are you going to make her? What are you going to do if she doesn't? :lol: Janet is a legend regardless 

    you're chatting all this shit about how it's not a problem she's said nothing

    it's not really too bad she cancelled on all her fans

    we all have to find our great forever and all this shite, 

    soon as your upcoming dates in the US are cancelled, see if ye keep on with the silly rainbowns and sparkles fall out of janet's arse nonsense

  15. This is bullshit. I hope if Janet is listening like she has been saying she gives us euro fans the explanation we deserve. I felt kinda bad being pissed when I saw the articles about Joe being on deaths door but it obviously isn't because of that and it definitely isn't because of "scheduling difficulties" 

     

    .... DUST. 

    exactly she can just fuck off can't she

  16. I feel so bad for you, oh my God!! I read on another board someone was also flying from South Korea... It's so sad that fans who support her so much don't even get a decent explanation why the tour got cancelled. If she stays silent I really think about giving back my fan card, this is flat out disrespectful.

    this is exactly what I mean! I genuinely feel disrespected - I've invested loads of excitement in the show for months and she clearly has access to her instagram account seeing that she told us how excited she was to perform for us ... but no, nothing, but she'll still perform in dubai.. i just feel like she doesn't give a shit.

    and then the people on here defending her and stuff it's like.... i'm a fan too, but i'm not gonna delude myself to the point where i start defending shitty beahaviour.

  17. GOD I love this Gif

    I agree, and it should've come before hand, whatever she has to say, and that's something that she should've been doing, when my RWU date got reschedueled I found out through Ticketmaster the day of, and I had the thought I wished it was from her before them, and still that could be fixed, but it's not to say she won't say something

    I keep forgetting, that's the spell you have me under:wub:

    wait, you found out on the day of the show that it was cancelled!? wow...

    and while i see your point, and i imagine (or hope) that she will say something soon, it doesn't change the fact that I feel upset by her complete silence, when I've invested so much time in the show and was so excited about it.
