Janet Jackson was on the Oprah show yesterday to help promote her new album "Janet 20 Y.O." which drops today. 20 Y.O. stands for 20 Years since she took Control
of her career.
Janet opened the show with a performance of the song Nasty, and she was fierce. Stunning actually. This woman definitely is no wilting 40-year old. The bolt-on boobs are still a bit much, but Janet was fully coutured to rock. Why can't she wear more clothes when she does magazine covers? I'm a huge Janet fan, but the indecent proposal mag cover poses are leaving me boobtose intolerant.
On her 60 pound weight loss in 4 months, Janet says that she did it naturally with the help of a trainer and a nutritionist. Oprah asked her if she took any weight loss pills, and Janet said that she only took vitamins and natural supplements. A while back, I said that Janet had to have had some nip/tuck done because that's an enormous amount of weight to lose in a short time and to get a six pack. Janet sounded sincere and said that it upsets her that people think she she used unnatural means, but the jury is still out for me, and I could be completely wrong.
On Justine Timberlake, Janet feels that JT left her hanging to dry by herself. He comes out just this month to defend Janet:
"If you consider it as 50/50, I probably got 10 per cent of the blame - and that says something about society. I think America's harsher on women and I think it's unfairly harsh on ethnic people."
So how come you didn't say any of this two years ago JT?
On boyfriend Jermaine Dupri, "a man who takes her places she's never been", like Egypt, jokingly, Janet looks nastily happy and in love. Good for her! You can get the new CD Janet 20 Y.O.today.
