  1. she has to prove something to save face with both Live Nation and her fans because there are fewer of them, she put folks off after cancelling shows and postponing to "plan a family" I will say if she indeed got the news she could conceive then I am very happy for her, but if something else is going on Im very disappointed that the truth wasnt good enough for her fans who have stood by her and waited and supported. All I will say here is Janet knows what's true and what isn't and whether she really is pregnant, ever was, or was trying to become...Janet knows and that alone is good enough for me, if she knows she aint preggars and let the fans and public think she was ......live with that lie....

    how often did we see janet over the last couple years prior to the release of the album? she was ghost to the point a fan made a missing person poster, so who realistically expected to be seeing her out and about while pregnant? making up a lie that she's pregnant at her age is a extreme im sure janet would never go to, and implying her friends and family members are in on some scheme sounds crazy. i know for a fact wissam being a muslim would not play those kinds of games when it comes to family. if janet wasnt pregnant she would have denied the reports, she actually retweeted the et announcement.

  2. Janet is the main reason for the dissension within the Janet fan community. You have two sides of the coin: on one side you have the fans who doesn't hold her accountable for any of her faults and loves everything she does, then you have the small minority of fans who will be honest and offer constructive criticism of Janet. The differing perspectives leads to clashing, which leads to dissension and that in turn, leads to this fan base looking dysfunctional. The root to all of this, however, is Janet and her seemingly poor handling of her career within the last 15 years. And most of the fans who call honest fans "fake" are disappointed themselves in Janet, but won't admit it due to their loyalty to her. 

    well speaking for myself im a happy fan, of course there have been things i didnt love but i realize its impossible to please everybody all the time. i hated the entire 20 yo era but i didnt feel a need to constantly show my displeasure or to try and shade the fans who actually enjoyed the 20yo era, i went on with my everyday life,i still bought the album , and i was still there for discipline which was a little better but still not what i was hoping for from janet. after a long wait she delivered an album im in love with, of course i wanted to see the unbreakable tour and hopefully will next year, but if i dont its not the end of the world. i dont see how her career has been poorly handled over the last 15 years, the 'all 4 u' era may not have been big as her past eras but it was still huge and alot of artists would have killed for that success. from my point of view she was headed for another successful era with damitajo....of course it didnt happen ..whats interesting to me is while the fans fight amongst each other right now while janet is preparing for the most important event of her life, she has been getting so much love and positive vibes from the media and her peers, all of the write ups and think pieces on her music and legacy makes me proud.

  3. long as her music aint going no where im not going no where, i basically listen to all old music anyway unless janet and a few other release new albums. janet will have a kid to raise so her priorities are gonna change in 10 years she will be a rich soccor mom who happens to be a iconic legend.

  4. At the end of the day, it's obviously something going on when people feel the need to censor a fan because they don't agree or praise the artist. Do you think everyone in Janet's personal camp agrees with her? Do you think Janet has had consistent disagreements with ppl she keeps around for the sake of growth & development? Being a fan does not mean you agree with everything. 

    You started your previous statement with "she's worthy of having crazy fans" that in & of itself is the issue. Fans should not be crazy, they can be emotional, they can be moved, they can be passionate, but cultish & forceful? They should not. MANY artist learn to avoid those type of people. There's a massive difference between appreciation & fandom. The constant attacking, name calling, & everything else I named in my original post comes off like Janet is being fetishized over her very human talent. 

    It does not make anyone more of a fan because they hype EVERY thing the artist does. I am aware of Janet's fan age demographic, that has nothing to do with the ability to be mature. There is no excuse for the behavior. Like I said, Janet has people in place who do disagree with her & it's healthy...her fans disagreeing could be healthy if some fans did not go out of their way to antagonize them. 

    it goes both ways. if you have a problem with fans being too passionate or what you call over praising you should equally have a problem with the fans who are over critical.no fans should be judged one way or the other. if fan A. loves everything an artist does or chooses not to be critical of them , and fan B. nit picks, overanalyze and just plain ole bitch about everything an artist does, you cant just call out one type of fan. fansites are fundamentally cultish, i dont like madonna so it would be foolish of me to join one of her fansites and not expect hype,praise,delusion and everything in between, if i still decided to join for the purpose of criticizing and bashing her im basically trolling. also remember this is the internet, so pointing out who janet has working for her or even expecting everybody to be mature is a fantasy.

  5. Those fans are equally mentally unstable. They are not an example of "normal" or why it's ok to be this way. So using those examples are not justifications they are actually examples that further the concern that this is adequate behavior. No celebrity is "worthy of having crazy" fans.  Let's not condone it. Celebrities are humans, and damn near every one of them wishes their fans were more cognizant of their humanity than their brand & image. No one wants a bunch of mentally unstable psychos following them, & making them uncomfortable & their fans uncomfortable. Janet fans should be a little more mature in their thinking as she is a more mature & respectable artist...so yea, no excuse for the weirdness.  

    its not an excuse, it is what it is. im not so sure these celebs dont condone it, maybe some dont but ive seen certain ones engaging their 'unstable' stans. Janet is a mature artist and has alot of mature fans but she also has alot of younger fans who are part of the social media era.ive been a janet fan for as long as she's been doing her thing, im gonna still love and support her if she never puts out another album , if i dont like something she does i dont have a need to go onto her fan site to express how disappointed i am or trash her or the fans who may enjoy whatever it was i didnt like. i just think its stupid and looks bad seeing her so-called fans fighting amongst each other over the most petty shit. if you're gonna call a fan mentally unstable for their diehard fandom i think its equally disturbing when a fan has to express their displeasure in her constantly.

  6. Game is no different from any other overzealous 'stan' that roams the internet. I mean the beehive attacked people children, they are so crazy that other celebs are intimadated because they know if they dont praise her to the high heavens her stans will flood their pages with nonsense and interupt the purpose of their pages, which is to promote their projects. MJ stans go so far as to insult his elderly mother, they count his money and try to raise his kids. Rihanna stans picks on little Blue Ivy, i can go on and on. Janet is just as worthy to have crazy stans as the next celeb, for some reason the janfam is expected to be pessimistic or be accused of delusion or worship, well at the end of the day all fan bases are guilty of delusions and hero worship.

  7. im back on a unbreakable binge. the thing is i cant play certain songs i gotta listen to the entire album. i hope the hype surrounding her baby when she gives birth will bring some attention to this great album. have 'night', 'dream maker/euphoria' or something from the album playing with the birth announcement. they should also put out a lyric video for 'broken hearts heal' for mj's bday. SHARE THIS DAMN MUSIC JANET

  8. she's probably insecure with the way she looks right now. she has been dragged for her weight gain several times and even though its pregnancy weight there will still be ignorant people trying to insult her. every woman dont have a 'glowing' pregnancy, sometimes we look a mess like kim kardashian, jessica simpson,ect.

  9. 1) She didn't hype anyone up. You hyped yourselves up for some huge era... She released her album on an INDEPENDENT LABEL... There are ZERO independent artists that can do what Janet did. You caused your own "disappointment" by not knowing what an Indy artist is.. by not knowing the limitations. Only idiots thought she was going to go on this huge promo like it's 2001... Janet is smarter than that.

    2) You're attempting to play both sides of the field. You can grasp the ideas but you side with both. I can't grasp on Austin's ideas bc I'm not an idiot and I'm very aware of the music industry.. I'm with JanFam through & through and my words will reflect that.. How about you?!

    3) TOF isn't necessarily a "die-Hard" fan.. He's a fan who respect Janet and doesn't talk down about her bc of his personal "disappointment" and ignorance 

     

    you're right she never hyped anything, she did everything through her damn social media, which is clear to me she was focused on her fans who follow her. some fans got mad at her because she didnt hype up the project the way they wanted her to. her not caring about the hype or the traditional promo route dont mean she didnt care about the music, if that was the case we would have gotten an album that sounds more like 'discipline' instead of the great 'unbreakable'.

  10. there are other artists out there that im sure is doing the things you guys are looking for, if janet is not giving you what you want maybe its time to move on? going to her fan sites and jumping on her social media to keep saying the same shit pretty much means you dont have anything else to do or these other great artists cant hold your attention.
