Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Janet has been sexy for years now... Showing her famous abs and flashing her billion dollar breast but nowadays, Ms. Jackson seems to be covering up her tattas and abs for a more mature look. Here's My Thought: If Janet was naked and prancing like her older and some younger counterparts, then the media and public opinion would diminish. The change in branding is good for an allegedly 50 year old woman. Let's all be frank. Madonna, 60 years old, has been trying to seek public attention for years by being OVERLY sexual for a menopausal woman. Is it sexist? Ageist? No. Old people are gross and that's just how the public perceives "old" people What's your thoughts? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laveaux Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 People don't understand that this is a brand new Janet we are dealing with. I believe her perspective on things have evolved since she is in a different reality. T&A is not part of this new movement. Her fans need to get over that and stop living in the past. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStormSC Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Has Janet even really been "uncovered" since the 20 y.o. era? None of her videos or TV performances have her signature abs showing since so excited. She barely showed skin in concert on Rockwitchu and Up Close and Personal. It was mostly some cleavage. Her blackgama campaign is the most risqué look in 9 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They go straight to the Muslim rumor imo, I like Janet in clothes. Janet is one of those women who don't need to show off her assets to be sexy (Madonna is the exact opposite). She's sexy and classy with clothes on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sacred Prostitute Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 (edited) I've always loved a layered Janet look! Mama is serving in the album shoot.....and I'm glad she is working with Kim Bowen again. Kim is always a safe bet when it comes to dressing Janet. The look is exactly rock, tribal, punk and elegant at the same time. It frames Janet's beauty so well. Janet's inner Stevie Nick's is coming through! The hair is the main accessory along with Janet's beautiful face. I think this is the best she has ever looked to be honest! Maybe because she might be truly happy and she's glowing......Janet is not pressed at all. Edited August 22, 2015 by freexone9 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utopia Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 People who complain about her being covered up are people who don't know their Janet history. Don't fight ignorance, just laugh and ignore it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetDAYZ Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Do they want her to reach Tina Turner's age and still show her titties in push up bras? REAL Janet fans understand the evolution of her image/brand. She's damn near 50..growth and maturity naturally comes with getting older (at least should no thanks to Mariah and Madonna) but anyway. The "normal" human being does not care about whether her clothes are on or off. Thats such a petty,childlike thing to complain about. We've already seem her body, what have we not already seen? Revisit 1993 if u wanna get off 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
