Exclusive: Janet Jackson Chats With Bossip
Posted by Bossip Staff
Janet took time out of her hectic schedule to chat with Bossip recently. Although she remained tight-lipped on the topics of her alleged child with former hubby, questions about her sexuality, and the inside scoop on her relationship with Jermaine Dupri, she did manage to tell us a little about her upcoming Rock Witchu Tour and future plans:
Bossip: It’s been 7 years since you’ve been on tour. Why have you chosen to
go on tour at this point in time?
Janet: I was in tour rehearsals on the last album when the new label [Def Jam] asked if I would consider putting the tour on hold because they wanted a new album quickly. They wanted me to wait until after the release of Discipline [to tour].
Bossip: Will this Rock Witchu Tour be your last?
Janet: If the Stones can keep going being in their 60’s, then I can too. I’m not saying I will, just saying I can.
Bossip: You’ve had a remarkable career, what’s your vision for the future?
Janet: Music, more acting, producing film and TV projects. I have a show coming out toward the later part of the year and I have a book coming around November about my journey through weight gain and loss - and what method I use to control it.
And by the way, all that noise about Janet’s European tour being canceled is totally false. Tickets go on sale this weekend for Janet’s Rock Witchu Tour. And although it’s been 7 years, we’re sure it’ll be worth the wait. Much more to come as her tour draws near……

Washed up.
Maybe she might want to snatch those masks of her nephew’s and neice’s faces.
What’s between Michael Jackson and a cult?
Cult members drink bleach to die.
Michael uses bleach to dye.
^the difference
fourth
she better perform ‘Pleasure Principle” & y’all better post it on youtube
is that all you could from her Bossip? why didn’t you ask about her daughter?..where is the rest of the interview? are you saving it for next week?
going to get tickets to take my little sister to see the show in DC….it falls on her birthday….
could get*
She puts on a great show, or at least she used to. Saw her and Michael here in Charlotte. Absolutely loveddd it!!! Keep doing what you doin JJ. If people pay to go see Soulja boy then why not you.
good for janet…not sure if we are interested in her weight gain/loss and control of it, but who knows. TV show sounds good. I’m sure Mr. Perry has something to do with it….
Good luck to Damita Jo
LMAO @ souljah boy comment!
@BREE…is that all you could from her Bossip? why didn’t you ask about her daughter?..where is the rest of the interview? are you saving it for next week?
**********************************************************************************
DAMN! I thought me and a few others was the only one who knew for a fact she has a daughter
!. preach on!
I’m tired of these Geriatrics these days (hence my blog title). It’s usually comedic, and Mariah’s E=MC2 (couldn’t get the squared sign on bossip, lol), is a prime example of it.
You got the opportunity to talk to an “Icon” like her and you just asked 3 questions?
Yeah right, where’s the rest of the interview?
You need to ask her why was she on that “Bust it Baby” Remix?
(…”Ms. Jackson if you nasty”)
*But you know what she did do a song with Khia…
Oh yeah, I wanna know when she’s gonna work with other people besides her man Jer-lame Dupri…
Because when they (Janet & Dupri) get together they make NO hits, unlike when JD works with Mariah…
Ho-hum. I’m a little disappointed about the quality of this interview. Where were the probing questions? Nothing new was revealed.
And she really should consider giving up on appealing to the “106th & Park” crowd and doing the Vegas circuit as I’ve said before. Get paid like Celine and Cher.
Would you like to make $71,000 OR $250,000 in a few weeks?
As seen on the Oprah Winfrey show and ABC’s 20/20

No wonder Bossip is looking for new staff… and to waste such a great interview like that… come on now Bossip. Y’all have got to do better!!!
Oh brother….
I wonder if she will lipsynch this tour?
I like janet mostly her old stuff but vocally she is weak. Her new stuff is crap
@ Re (David Hasselhoff is the best singer ever!)
LMPRAO @ you screen name, LOL!! Too Funny!!!
*yawn*
Oh hey Brooklyn, my condolences to you too!! Sorry, but you know it’s a wrap for your team right?
That’s it? That’s the interview? Okay, well, uh, I’m glad the European leg of the tour was not cancelled. Happy for her fans over there, they love her just as much as fans here in the U.S. I haven’t seen a Janet concert in 14 years! I will be seeing Janet when she comes here to Oakland in September! Can’t wait!
I am so tired of Janet. She needs to go ahead and retire wasn’t she just dropped from her record company for lack of sales not too good for the ego…. and she tries too hard does not need to do all that I just think it is sad take your millions and settle down with your little man.
Retiring is not in her Jackson Blood.
no one is telling madonna to retire? stfu!!!!!!! Janet we love you, do your thing all these haters don’t have to go or listen to your music!!
I can’t wait to see her show!
I’m there!
I pre-ordered my tickets yesterday and can’t wait to see her. I loves me some Miss Janet!
But Bossip, on the real, this was NOT an interview. Come on! How are you going to have Janet Jackson on the line and only pump out 3 BS questions?
^^^^ innocent bystander
I’m in Charlotte as well…..reppin the “704″
I will be on the front row. Loves me some Janet in concert.
I love Janet Jackson, Hope she will be in my city
@num1dominicano,,,, What date is she in DC?
janet, just crown ciara and gracefully bow out.
bossip congrats on the most useless and generic interview ever.
@Bossip,
You don’t say? Janet says she got 25 lighters on the dressa… yes suh, she got’s ta get paid. lol
R. KELLY NOT GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS!!!!
I hope the tour is a success. Do your thing Ms Jackson for as long as you want to!! Bow out when your ready.
SO EXCITED!! But i have to admit..i hope that IF shes still touring in her 60’s she looks better than the Rolling STones…they look like one them could break a hip at any moment. lol
Janet should stick to acting, right her acting isn’t that good either.
Why did she keep tight lipped about that child? Hmmm. Why not just say that ain’t my kid
Haters look so silly. I love Janet the Queen. See you on October 7th in South Florida babes.
When I look at Ciara I see Janet.The way she moves, to the way she dress.I see copycat!
Go Janet, I know you might be reading this.
Keep you head up girl, don’t fret
We have an army where building to come against the negative mentalities of thsi race. We will highlight negativity and make fun of it.
Like you said if the Stones can keep performing so can you. Understand we are part of a STUPID GENERATION, where after 30 we want you to sit down.
But don’t sit down, never let this race beat you down. You hve more suport than you think and I hope you can help your marketing situation.
Retire bitch!!!
Janet is so washed up- Her last three albums were flops- she is just trying to stay above water. Janet is old news a has been- same old dances- Janet should reitre- Tired of her whack ass- retire bitch
Janet is so Lame. All of her music is just outdated. She had her time to shine. Bossip yall need to change that heading to Hoe Sit Down. If yall put Mya Angelou under that heading it should be nuttin for yall to put Janet old knifed up ass under the heading also.
@Jaime
Totally Agree!
im so fregin mad with the fact that Janet is the Shit But her record sales are down because people like rhianna and Ciara are Bitting her style and reeping the benifits.
they are flooding the market with janetisim.
@Slide Like A Fresh Pair of Gators (fka Keepin’ It Real - D’Original)You need to ask her why was she on that “Bust it Baby” Remix?
1THEY ASKED HER DUMBASS > they used her song COMEBACK as the music. AND neyo her brothers imitator is on there too .
2 jermaine asked her to do that shyt wit khia
3 She tryin to give MAINE a chance to prove he can make hits for anybody.
_____________________________________________________________AND by the way she need to stop Letting Jermaine produce your sHyt, bring back jimmy jam and terry lewis .
cant wait to see her in concert, Bow down a real Queen is touring
Career officially over
Bossip..umm this article seems vaguely familiar to me..like i’ve read it before..hmm..well anyway i’m a Janet Jackson fan and have already pre ordered my tix..say what u want about Janet but her live concert is a mega experience..Word is Janet’s gonna have a catwalk and two stages on this tour..trust she will not dissapoint…yeah her cd sales are down but sooooooooo is everyone else’s ppl dont buy music like they used to with all the new technology now..and NO she didnt get dropped from her label…she put her label on blast cuz they wanted to pick all her singles and didnt want to give her creative control..i applaud her standing up for herself..and Hell Janet is an icon..who has influenced many of todays female performers..ask Beyonce,Ciara and them and they’ll tell u over and over JANET!! She doesnt have to do another thing career wise and she still will be awesome,she has broken so many records for #1 singles,received many awards and is so successful. Janet Jackson is and will always be an ICON…MUCH RESPECT!!

HI MY NAME IS ALASAN HJHFGLAOKJ IMNDUEJNMND
LO LOLOOOOOOOOOOOOOLOLOLOL FYG B HNJJMHBFJFBH
FBI HAPPY
Amazing…I seemed to see she had a personal account on the rich and success dating site Su garMin gle. co m with profile and blog when looking for dates and fun with hot girls there recently. The blog was updated very often. Lots of guys joined in her friend circle.
Who the hell wants to be overcharged to see an OLD FAT CHICK jump around and lip sync? NOT THIS BROTHER!!
ok she hasn’t had a hit in centuries and she’s getting on in years BUT go Janet go janet go janet! I’d love to see her show anyway i bet it’ll be rockin
sick of janet. I am beginning to really Dislike her. Go away girl
All you guys are retarded, if your saying Janet’s last CD didn’t sale…not true…not true. Do the math, her records are selling but, not like a couple of years ago. MOST OF THE ARTIST ARE NOT GETTING CD sales like they use to, because of people are burning CD’s . Janet is not hurting she was listed on the Forbes list last year. She has investments but you never hear of her discussing them…she’s a quiet investor. Rich people scream, wealthy people whisper…Janet don’t flunt what she does, like other artist such as Beyonce, JLO, P Diddy, Paris Hilton..Janet a smart business woman and whatever she put out, I’ll buy. Beyonce’s dad puts out video after video for his daughter….and that’s how you get people to buy, which he didn’t do for Kelly Rowland, leading people to speculate that her CD wasn’t good, again, not true, the CD is awesome, just as good as Beyonce, but you need the support. Beyonce is not necessarily a good singer. and neither is Rhiana, they have good publicity people. Oh, and by the way Beyonce had plastic surgery on her nose JUST LIKE JANET and she lip sync JUST LIKE JANET and CIARA can’t sing or dance LIVE in concert, so I don’t see anything these woman are doing different than Janet as far as performance..Janet can perform with the best of them…Oh, and by the way, Black people still dance at the age of 40, 50, 60, 70….until we’re 100 yrs old…I didn’t know there was a rule to dancing and singing..hell ELVIS was in his 40’s still trying to dance and sing and people still want to say he was the greatest.LOL
I think it’s great Janet is coming out with a book about weight loss. but, I think she need to look back over the years and realize she hasn’t been yoyo dieting at all. The media put that out to sell magazines. If you look back at Janet during the years the only time she was plump was when she was a teenager. If a magazine has followed Janet’s career, than yoyo dieting will never come out, because she hasn’t yoyo diet at all, people are trying to sell magazines. Now, Ophrah yo yo diets, JLO has yo yo dieted. Janet is a icon and a trendsetter, when she came out showing those abs and tight body in the early 90’s that’s when it became poplar to go to the gym to get tight abs and a big booty, well not for me, I have a natural booty, not gym made. Janet, was the first to start performing on stage without a mic and started using a headset. Janet got her tatoo on her lower back, which is still poplar among young girls today. Janet, started wearing her hair or wig with the wedge cut and bangs first and right after that you see Kathie Holmes and Rhiana wearing it too, yet the media act like Kathie started wearing if first…but Janet rock that look at least a year before Kathie…..Janet will be coming out with something in December, and I will be one of the first, rocking it when you come out with your line.
Deehill is a very smart individual! Yes Jan is a quiet Investor..sh’es very smart, there are many things that she does and owns that she doesn’t flaunt..that is why she is my Mentor..Legends are known to be classy..you don’t have to flaunt to validate what you own, who u are and what you do..Oneday these “young kids” such as Beyonce and the others will learn this..they will soon review enough Janet interviews to learn this..Janet needs to have a talk with them personally to teach them how to “handle” business affairs. There are many things u keep quiet! I see Jan in Detroit at the Palace for ALL U DETROIT PEOPLE..show will be at the Palace of Auburn Hills on Sept27th 2008, “RockwitchU” Tour..her shows are always beastly. Janet is a Trendsetter for every woman of various races, beliefs, and creeds. I really disagree when magazines will place some young female in a magazine such as Katie Holmes or whoever else and make it seem like certain styles they are flaunting..as if they created..when in fact Janet rocked it 3 months before they knew what it was! Jan travels alot and goes to see fashion shows much to get ideas for her stage presence n personal style..so yes many times she’s usually THE FIRST TO ROCK!
AND HATER ALERT!!! TO THE HATER..its not over yet..Janet is here to stay! do not believe everything u here! Sum know more than others.
Myspace.com/JanetStreetTeam
the soldiers who was defended our freedom & safety were memorable too! show your respect and love to theses people @ Militarysoulmate.com ****
WOW!!! gotta get some tickets
Come now lets be real…Discipline sold less then 400k thats a flop..no trying to gloss it up…it tanked and for someone of janets status that’s even worse plus she cant even sell out the tour dates for those handfull of shows she already has and her european fanbase is non existent
