Piers Morgan's star secrets - the television host recalls the confessions of some of Hollywood's biggest names

My interview with Janet Jackson was a fascinating insight into the weird, fantastical world of the world’s most famous showbiz family.

“What did you call him?” I asked her, referring to Janet’s famously dictatorial father, Joe Jackson.

“Joseph. One time I tried to call him Dad. He just said, ‘No, I’m Joseph. You call me Joseph. I’m Joseph to you.’ So, I always called him Joseph.”

Later, as she discussed her lifelong battle with her weight, Janet revealed that she knows some female stars who eat Kleenex tissue paper to clog up their stomachs so they don’t feel hungry.

“I know worse stuff they do too,” she told me in a commercial break.

“Stuff I don’t even want to go into.”
