Tobias73 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 At the very least, I hope she releases songs/videos to help sustain the project. It gets tiring seeing Janet have CDs (except 20YO) that have strong singles on them, but the project just gets dropped. It didn't particularly happen with All For You and Damita Jo, where Janet wanted to release songs from both CDs (Trust a Try and Come on Get Up) from All For You and R&B Junkie and My Baby from Damita Jo. I just don't think Virgin wanted to release those.Unbreakable still has Dammn Baby, Broken Hearts Heal, Night, Take Me Away, and Gon Be Alright, all of which could have some type of release that could garner attention. If the Dammn Baby video is finished, Janet has nothing to lose by not releasing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DasSad Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Janet would be a cute Vegas actand at this point I don't think it is beneath her to do itit may be her only option but for some reason she wanted no parts of Vegas this era. Every show she has there including I heart was canned. My opinion? She was already into some kind of treatment, aiming to get pregnant at the end/after the tour. But it happened before she planned, she found out after the Dubai show and her doctors said: pull the plug and stay home. Remember on her video, when she said "understand that I must do this now"? That's what I think happened.And I'm sorry... But I hardly doubt she'll comeback in 2017 with this tour. It wouldn't make much sense... She waited forever to have a baby, now she have one, she'll go on tour again? We know how much tours are exhausting, imagine doing it carrying and breastfeeding a newborn? Bet she'll want to stay home and be a mom (I'm totally on for it! I think that's what she should do) a New Janet project? At least 3 or 4 years from now.the plug was pulled in Europe though not in Dubai and at that point after Europe they were still saying the tour was a go. I am still going with they saw those empty seats and saw it was a no win situation and decided to end the whole thing. I don't see a comeback on 2017 either. That means rehearsals would start late 2016 or mid 2017. The baby weight will still be there, swollen feet, the hormones, the mama bear syndrome and flying or driving a newborn all over the country is not good. She will be a first time mom so she ain't leaving the kid nowhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it happened in December when she signed up for surgery.. She said "understand I must do this now" bc she's 50 and trying to start a family Touring with a child is possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour rehearsals can then begin in the beginning of 2017.. And the tour can continue in Summer/fall 2017. She will have a nanny bc she's rich (no doubt about that) and the baby (like those two kids she had on the road) can travel with the tour.. Many artists have done it before and many artists will continue to do that. It's not hard to put on a 3 hour show and have a child 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 People are quick to make Janet out to be some old fuck who is helpless and depends on her man like most of y'all.. But nah.. She ain't that woman. She's strong. She's lived through so much including a drug addicted older brother's passing. She's stronger than many of you give her credit 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bu. Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Janet and team need to hire some of us! Even though I feel most of the stans/fans are batshit crazy, it's only because we care. If she doesn't want to do interviews and the tour goes on as planned, they can't take the same approach and they have to do some tv performances. I'm extremely hopeful and optimistic that they don't take the silent approach. The tickets won't sell themselves.The album is AMAZING, but I'm not sure what the strategy is with singles. If I were them, I'd keep sending songs to radio. The European leg needs smaller venues and should take place in strong markets. There's got to be some sort of single releases in Europe if they plan on going back.Here for this. She should have done smaller venues in Europe in the first place since it's not like she's had a presence here for like 10 years, having only mainly promoted in the US. Although she could have easily sold out the o2 had she done some promotion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She literally gave up and is pretty much on the brink of destroying her whole career and legacy for her husband. He has not done the same on his part. He has sacrifice nothing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LawdToday Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 And the US tour was NOT a successful venture. 15 Million from 33 shows hjghjggfjkghkThat is pathetic for an artist of her stature.

Aquaria Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Didnt she do a limited run in Vegas or am I making that up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kishi Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 (edited) She did four shows in Las Vegas (it was originally going to be 5, but she ended up going to Indio, CA instead) for the UCAP tour, all sold out. I think Caesar's Palace would be a great idea. It seats close to 4,000 and big name acts make a FORTUNE. If she did 2-3 shows a week for a limited period of time (three to four months), it would be a success. I've seen that "planning a family meme" on Instagram and it's HILARIOUS! Many of you know that I'm overly optimistic. I love Janet and REALLY love the show. I go to many concerts and I'm part of a few different message boards, but there isn't that same sense of family and community with other fan bases and concert attendees. That alone is big reason for me to want this tour to continue, to meet more fans and make more friends. At most concerts, everyone keeps to their group of friends and isn't approachable. At Janet shows, whether you know of each other online or just waiting in line, the fans interact and socialize with each other. I've kept in touch with and spent time with many of them. She has some really great fans. Edited April 11, 2016 by Kishi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And pulling stunts like these postponements and cancellations is doing nothing but putting her in the position to never have another arena tour in the states again. but she is too good to do Vegas? Y'all tripping! if the entire tour totaled only $15mil, then I'd be guessing that she most likely pocketed less than $3mil profit from roughly 30 shows, I can see why she wouldn't want to tour anymore... That's like pocket change for someone who's married to a billionaire... Couponing money...Janet retiring to Vegas SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN. Let that be for artists who can't tourYou know there very well may come a day when she decides to do a run in Vegas, and only in Vegas.. She even stated close to a decade ago that's she's seriously considered it.. What will you say and do if and when she chooses to go that route?especially now that she'll allegedly have offspring, Vegas would make more sense (to stay in one spot for an extended period of time).. Would that change the way you view her career/choices? (And please don't say it'll never happen as your reply).. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
