excuse for what? whats the point of rescheduling then, if it's true, for 2017?

well I don't know what your shade is about but Janet remembers it well. She was talking about how she had not met her fans there. She tweeted it after the video. She wouldn't forget the 2nd city of the british empire. The city that lead the ship building industry.

no she said she had met the fans there. She was talking about the mymusicvip experience.

yes but she actually did perform in Glasgow, 1998. My home city :)

Unbreakble is definitely a better album than janet. Infant All for you is a better album than janet. in my opinion. all for you gets such a hard time, yet there are so many good songs on it and an album that introduced janet to a lot of new fans. AS for TVR, well I think TVR will always win because it just has so much depth and substance

For me, the fact that she didn't promote or do legs of the tour is not a big deal. It's the way it was all handled. It was hyped up at the beginning. We thought we were getting era. Had janet just released the album like prince for example then none of these expectations would have set in. But I think in many ways we were lead to believe we would get a full on janet jackson style era. That's what's lead to the disappointments. For example, you wouldn't plan a arena world tour in places you haven't been for years if you weren't planning on doing it big. It was all misleading.

I feel sad. This should be the happy news for all janet fans. We've followed her all these years and now finally she could be giving birth to not an album but a child. THIS SHOULD BE THE HAPPIEST TIME OF ANY FOR A JANET FAN!! Instead with the circumstances it doesn't feel celebrated. I guess janet was stuck in a hard place as to how to handle it.

Perhaps her doctors told her shortly after the tour started that she can't wait any longer. Maybe the surgery was a woman issue and that's when it came up. I am gauging from the video that she is already pregnant and that's why she waited and has been quiet before officially saying anything. I hope it's true. I hope we atleast get some sort of footage of the tour in HD and we get the dammn baby video.

Perhaps the 'emergency surgery' in Dec was something to do with this, the insemination.

I'm enjoying watching the US fans suffer now after many of them had no sympathy for european fans after the cancellations there. This is still odd to me. She has actually said she's pregnant. I hope ot comes true though. She deserves to have a child.

The reason why janet got the brunt of it was because she was the bigger star and a powerful person. Justin was just a nobody to them in this situation. What does race even come in to it? Show me the receipts? Show me the people, the radio djs saying they decided to ban Janet because of her skin colour??? It saddens me that people will accuse people of racism without even a bit of proof. Some of you need to have more faith in people. There is so much more to be concerned about in the world than who is nominated for an Oscar >_>, like the corruption and poverty and terrorism in Africa.

I actually can not pick one song lol. They are all good in the their own way. Im going to have to really think about this one lol.

FYI, I have friends of many races, including blacks. They are all doing great things. Saying white people have advantages because of the colour of their skin? That's about as dumb as if I said there is black privilege in athletics because blacks can run faster

I'm gay and a succeess. I have not been stopped for it. In fact I've been encouraged. So your privilege theory is just nonsense.

you contradict yourself. The reason why people overreacted was because she was Americas sweetheart, not because she is black. People respected janet, grew up with her, she was a family favourite. Going by your theory, Is like saying that people turned against Britney because she is white. No they turned against her because she was once another American sweetheart but she went nuts and 'chaotic' lol. How can you say this is about race, after all the years of success janet has had in America. If it was about race, janet or Beyoncé or Rihanna or Whitney or mariah never would even got a record deal.

I don't see how you can claim that today, being black and in America means being stopped from 'succeeding', when you have a black president. Yes, there is history, yes there is problems, but I just find phrases like White privilege deeply insulting, as if all white people are guilty of racism for just simply living. It's a disgusting phrase to use. It is just not true that all white people were born privileged. Poverty and discrimination is colourless. It's all over the place. Point in, living in America, there is nothing stopping you from succeeding. If the jackson 5 can do it from a poor neighourhood in Gary, anyone can succeed and break boundaries if you work hard. Maybe you're just not working hard enough ;)

fair enough. But if it wasn't fur this thread, I wouldn't even know Beyoncé was doing anything. She's just as quiet as janet.

oh palease. Get over it. It was centuries ago. My ancestors were slaves to war, being called to fight in WW1 and 2 but I don't go around calling all Germans Nazis and saying they have German privilege.

Rubbish! That was not an apology. It was a 'sorry if you were offended' pretend apology. The Grammys said they could come on the show if they apologised ON the show. Justin did, people let him move on. Janet refused. She was wrong. She should've gone on and admitted she made a mistake. Its going nothing to do with race. You really need to get over this nonsense about white privilege. There is no such thing. Whites, or anyone for that matter, don't owe you anything. We ALL have to struggle along in life. Go listen to the song 'You'.

I'm assuming you are black, give me an example in your life where you have been stopped from succeeding in something by a white person because he/she didn't like the colour of skin? You talk so much crap. People knew janet was black and loved her. People saw her as the normal jackson. Why then was michael more popular when he was black. Funny how what you consider racist America, started to dislike michael when he turned White. You are so ignorant of how fortunate you are living in the free world and the opportunities you do have.

White privilege?? My family (Caucasian) 100 years ago where of a working class background in trades, crafts and garment production. My generation of family are now running busineses, accountants, lawyers and teachers. None of my family went to private schools or could afford to buy education. I had free tuition at uni. It's called making full use of state education and WORKING HARD. It's got crap all to do with privilege. How many of these African American communities are stuck in this victim pain body, blaming all their fall backs on white folks. It's boring. Unless you are aristocratic and have inherited a fortune, we have all been in the same boat having to prove ourselfs and our blood line proud.

the reason why Justin didn't get punished was he apologised. Janet didn't apologise. That's why she was blacklisted. Not because she was black. That's nonsense and there is no evidence of it. the reason why Madonna can do those things is because she's largely viewed as a joke. Janet was actually respected. So people were pissed when she popped her boob out. I'm tired of people using the race card. Black peoples have been and can be successful too in America nobody is stopping it. for goodness sake, you have a black president. Michael and Janet's careers are what they are now because they themselves did a good job of sabotaging it. The fact that Michael invited kids in to his bedroom had nothing to do with his race. The fact that janet got blacklisted for exposing a boob to millions of families across America ia not because of race. They have made these mistakes. What's lame is they never admitted to making mistakes. Michael couldn't even admit that inviting kids in to his bedroom was wrong, innocent ot not.

I don't get this Beyoncé hype. "Exciting" only comes round once in a blue moon. She's not done anything "exciting" like ever. Lady Gaga's fame was the last time anything was "exciting" for people (although not me). Maybe it's cause I live in Europe, not US. Here, I don't think Beyoncé is as followed. A bit like Janet.

She was a target, but because she appeared to deliberately expose her boob to 120 million Americans. Not just because of her skin colour. If Madonna had done that, she too would have faced repercussions and blacklisting for sure. Where a difference would have occurred is in their personal handling of it. Janet went really wrong by not explaining herself. Madonna would have explained herself.

lol this is not really the place but it not quite the same. I often see people say that but it's just not true. Christianity has been through a reformation and is streaks ahead. I feel janet didn't handle the SB fiasco in the right way. She never explained clearly what was 'suppose' to happen. It's like David Letterman. The only reason why he pestered her was because she wouldn't give a straight answer. She tried to flirt her way out of it instead of answering the question. But tbh I never understood why she never got the SB show to herself, where she could've performed a new song.
