Janet Jackson to become a Barbie doll!

1

RuPaul did it, Cher and Lady Gaga, too. Why not the real queen of pop? “Mattel has become a part of the Rhythm Nation! The Barbie brand has partnered with Janet Jackson (Miss Jackson, if you’re nasty) to produce a limited-edition Janet Jackson Barbie doll to be auctioned for charity via charitybuzz.com. The auction ends December 15th. This toy IS pricey at 15K, but who’s to say a major major Janet fan won’t think that’s a fair price for the chance to “fall in love with [Janet] again,” albeit this time in a plastic iteration? The Janet Jackson Barbie even by a certificate of authenticity and a display case for showcasing your Janet adoration — because that’s the way love goes.

Janet Jackson’s promo poster for “For Colored Girls”

This is the a promo picture of Janet Jackson for her latest project For Colored Girls by Tyler Perry. She looks stellar as usual and we are kind of excited for this movie even if we think Tyler Perry’s movies are over dramatic and sometimes inconsistent and detached. But, Janet’s in it, so it’s all good, baby.

Janet Jackson’s performance on the American Music Awards

1

Ok, so it was a little less than 8 minutes. But, she tried her best with the time she has even if her wardrobe is really boring. A malfunction would have shaken things up. But, she crammed some hits along with the new single “Make Me,” which sounds lackluster in between all the greats. How sad is it that Jermaine Jackson doesn’t even know the lyrics to one of his sisters biggest hits “Together Again.” She rocked it, but she could’ve rocked it better.

Janet Jackson is back, bitches!

This promo photo of Janet Jackson’s next venture into the pop world has just started and, girl, it is looking fierce! I love everything about it and Janet looks a little like Michael re-incarnate. I adore it and I am glad one of the greatest pop artists on earth is not letting anyone hinder her impact on music and culture. Loving every minute of the shoot and we hope to see more of the pictures circulating.

Sheryl Crow is not bitter…

I don’t know how I missed that one. It is one of my favorite tracks on my top 5 albums of 2008. Detours is easily up there with SiA’s Some People Have Real Problems, Adele’s 19, Ani DiFranco’s Red Letter Year and Alanis Morissette’s Flavors Of Entanglement. Madonna’s Hard Candy nor Janet Jackson’s Discipline made it. The word is still out on Mariah’s E=MC². Isn’t it weird that the year everybody released an album, there are only a few good ones?

What is happening to Janet Jackson?

1

What is happening to Janet Jackson. She has cancelled a bunch of shows and nobody knows why. Some say she is sick and others claim her tour is flopping. In any case, the tour was one of her best and the album flopped because of poor marketing. I mean, “Rock With You” was one of the greatest songs of this year and “Feedback” was a hit. Her record company refused to promote anymore singles and everything fell apart. I hope she is ok.
