    Which songs besides RN are you expecting her to perform that will be SO groundbreaking and rebellious to the country. 

    Again, my stance is this was just an unnecessary performance...but that country deserves no more condemnation than America does. But what do you feel will be performed & powerful enough that it justifies the performance itself?

    RN, State of the World, Control, and hopefully What About.

    Add Scream back to the set.

    IF for that added touch of sexual female empowerment. And definitely grab the dancers crotch 😂

    Then he was wrong too! 🤷🏻‍♂️ 

    Also—the Human Rights Foundation has issued an open letter to Janet Jackson calling on her to cancel her performance. It also clarified that yes indeed MBS (the crown prince) is the one financing this entire festival—the same guy who ordered the slaughter and dismemberment of a Washington Post journalist and then conspired with the Trump administration to cover it up.

    this is not a good look folks!

    Yes queen. I hope she performs What About

    Honestly this performance reads as very desperate for Janet. I’ve had quite a few disappointments on the way she’s been allowing her regime to be ran and influenced by ppl who have no right being in those positions. That’s not a theory, that’s a fact. I actually feel for many of the fans who are holding to the shreds of hope their “freedom fighter” fave is going on a mission. This isn’t the case. I don’t condone anywhere mistreating women, but I also understand cultural context means different ideologies apply in different regions of the world. Janet didn’t need this check. Janet could have booked herself in many other places a few times over to make this money. 

    If she speaks out it will be the most dangerous thing she’s done, being in their country & attacking their principles under such strict laws/regulations. I’m sure she will do her job and leave and never address it.

    America? Sorry had to,  911 was an inside job through and through. 

    What would she need to address considering the music she performs already does that and sends those messages anyways

    It would be a different context, different story if she had previously gone to SA on a Humanitarian trip first to establish a sense of credibility to whatever “education” she would be able to provide to the people and leaders of a Human Rights violator country. But no, instead she last minute decides to take a check and a private luxury jet to go and entertain alongside 50 Cent and DJ Aiko 

    Yeah, but lets be realistic here. Wissam is from Qatar which is basically right next door. You think Janet is that misinformed about Saudi Arabia? At the end of the day that is the heritage of her own son. She has every right to want to perform there, make change, and educate her child.

    Michael is dead bro but you right. If it were a man, no one would give a fuck

    Not even him being a man just in general. "Michael performs heal the world in Saudi Arabia, breaks social barriers". I can already see the headlines so why can't Janet get the same respect.

    Holy damn Norman pickup on subtext my dude lol.. I’m actually agreeing with you.. obviously the SOTW intro montage had everything to do with Janet Jackson because of her history of philanthropy and humanitarianism, not to mention her RN1814 album and the themes she conveyed throughout that project.......

    which is why....

    she shouldn’t be doing performances in Saudi Arabia!

    How don’t you understand that? When in reality I know that you DO understand that but you’ve already said why you’re ok with it—$$$. Sure, let fucking 50 Cent go and perform In Da Club and BTS can go and do whatever it is they do, but Janet “Rhythm Nation” Jackson?! That goes against her brand.....at BEST this is a stumble for her. It’s ok Norman to admit that. 🙄 

    Naw I see this as a chance for her to go educate. A real humanitarian would go and try to make change. I'm sure she feels her music can make a difference there. Ya'll got it backwards. If it was Michael Jackson people would be praising him.

     Only way she can justify this is during her performance she speaks out against how they treat women and gays period

    Hasn't she always? Ya'll acting like Janet hasn't been preaching equality since RN 🙄 Get a grip. If anything she's the PERFECT artist to go there and break boundaries. I'm all for her bringing a State of the World style performance there.

    I don’t think Disney is going to let their copyright of anything expire and copyrights are for 100 years before it’s public domain :umm: 

    I thought I read something it's because most of these characters are actually from fairytale books in the late 1800s

    Bu just wants your dick Effrem 

     

    This is about men and relationships not men and hookups 

    It's either they just want sex and that's it, or they fall in love with you over night 🙄 there's like no in-between.

    Like quit extremes.

    All the speaking parts I've seen look really terrible. The animals have NO life, NO expressions whatsoever. It is too realistic and doesn't work. They could still have made their mouth and eye movements more "cartoony" to sell it more.

    I'm sure it's going to be visually stunning but I'm also starting to feel this fatigue. Kinda almost can't wait for them to be redone making all their renaissance films. 

    They don't have a choice. They waited too long so unless they make something thier copyrights expire. That's why we're seeing a rush of films back to back

    Lylie’s set was enjoyable though 

    I have a right to be

    Tea

    I can’t hear her on people’s recordings 

    50 minutes and she chose songs no one cares for. It wasn’t a show for fans 💀 

    You do know it was professionally recorded right? Lol u don't have to watch shitty phone recordings. It was broadcast
