A little exaggerated sexually. -_-
more than a little, more like a lot.. she needs to try something different.. she's been doing that for too many years. I would think a 44 year old woman wouldn't have to resort to such tactics for entertaining..

Oh get over it, They all do it, madonna, kylie, britney gaga. Compared to them janet is tame and classy. You really need to stop ur weird hate for her. She is a beautiful humble person and was very close to michael. And you say janet been doing the same thing for years, palesse. I love mj but he did the exact same dance moves and concepts for decades, even this is it was just the same stuff just with newer technologies.

Janet looks gorgeous! Those pictures of her are hot! Is there a video link to where she performs 'Together again'. The videos posted on this thread isn't working for me.

Since Janet can't sing, I guess her handlers told her she has to portray the "whatever". :scratch:
What a pity. This is pathetic. I mean if Janet could sing, she could be "sexy" with her voice,
and keep some of her cloths on.
When I looked at Janet Jackson's performance,
it made me realize, once again, how tremendous the
loss of Michael Jackson was to art and entertainment.
Janet's performance was to quote Joe Jackson, her father: "a piece of cramp".

MICHAEL JACKSON fans should'nt come to a MICHAEL JACKSON Forum???
And that does'nt stop Janet fans from speaking ill of him on his own forum now does it?
Opinions people, thats all it is, why bother getting irate about what someone else thinks? You maybe all cool with this soft porn stuff but others are'nt and they should be able to say so.

Janet Jackson at the Essence Festival.
Maybe there are some women who can pull this off without looking like a slut, but Janet Jackson can't.
A Picture is worth a thousand words.

I didnt understand you very well... :\
"Wow... and she is Michael's sister!!!" I meant to say that people hate on Michael's own sister! You know what I mean?? I am not saying that MJ's fans should not visit his forum! I'm like... huh?? :scratch: :blink:
See, I am not a "hater" fan. Thats why I dont understand certain behavior/comments about one or two or the whole Jackson family.
Sometimes I get sad and a little upset with certain things that the Jackson family says/does. But you'll never see me hating on them, bashing or calling them names or saying "NAAHH HE/SHE CANT SING or NAAHH WHAT A LOSER, WHAT A TERRIBLE PERFORMANCE"! Because they are family and I respect them. Honestly!

Yes, we already know you don't like Janet! You already have stated that! :mello:
Seriously, wow... :mello:
Guys consider this a warning
I cleaned the thread and several posts. This is a thread about Janet and her performance, please maintain the discussion without introducing any drug issues.
Supporting Janet should not equal to bad mouthing Michael. Vice Versa is also true.
Also please stop any personal attacks to Jackson family members (you can write your opinions and still be respectful) or any other member of MJJC.

Janet Jackson performs at Essence in New Orleans
NEW ORLEANS – Janet Jackson enthralled the Essence Music Festival audience Friday, kept them on their feet for more than two hours and reminded fans why seeing her in concert was worth waiting two years.
From the opening notes of "The Pleasure Principle" to "Control" to "Rhythm Nation," the Grammy Award-winning singer enticed, teased and brought her fans on a journey through her No. 1 hits.
"She was unbelievable," said Ed Downs of Miami. "It was definitely worth the wait. I'm happy to see her make a comeback. It was impressive."
Jackson marked her return by closing the festival's first night inside the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans. It was her first time at the festival, which runs through Sunday.
Former NBA player Anferenee Hardaway called Jackson's performance "absolutely perfect," and said no one could tell she had been off the concert circuit for any length of time.
"She definitely gets better with age," he said, smiling.
Fans got a glimpse of Jackson's new, sassy, short-cropped hair and her signature, shapely figure on the finale show of American Idol where she rocked classics like "Again" and "Nasty" and her latest release, "Nothing," from the soundtrack of the movie, "Why Did I Get Married Too?," which she also starred in.
But near the end of her show Friday, they were treated with even more as she depicted a risque, S&M scene with a male participant from the audience, whose hands and arms were strapped into a straight jacket as Jackson — in a flesh-toned body suit — worked him over, whip in hand.
He mouthed, "Thank you," and couldn't take his eyes off her, getting roars of approval, looks of envy and applause from the crowd.
"I loved it," said Rose Ellerbee of New York. "It was one of the hottest shows I've seen and then she brought back so many memories. She didn't lose a beat."
Michelle Ebanks, president of Essence Communications Inc., was as excited as anyone to hear Jackson in person. She said festival organizers had invited Jackson numerous times during the last 15 years and this year she finally accepted.
"Prayer works," Ebanks said laughing.
The festival is celebrating the magazine's 40th anniversary this year and Ebanks said they wanted to do so by putting the spotlight on strong, powerful female artists. In addition to Jackson, the lineup includes Gladys Knight, Mary J. Blige, Jill Scott, Alicia Keys, Monica, Keri Hilson, Chrisette Michele, Lalah Hathaway, Melanie Fiona, Estelle, Ledisi, Laura Izibor and New Orleans' own Irma Thomas.
"It means a great deal for me to be in the company of such wonderful women, women who I have the pleasure of knowing personally," Jackson said in an interview before her performance. "I'm especially honored to be able to play on a stage that also hosts Gladys Knight. She watched me grow up and I remember her being around the Motown family when I was a kid. It's definitely an honor."
Jackson, 44, said she has wanted to come to the festival previously but a jam-packed schedule didn't allow it.
"It didn't really permit me this time either, but because I really wanted to do it, we've worked it in," she said.
Jackson also is preparing for another movie collaboration with actor-director Tyler Perry, starring in his upcoming film adaptation, "For Colored Girls." She plays the "Red" character in the film, which is based on Ntozake Shange's 1975 Tony Award-nominated play, "For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf."
"I'm finally living my dream of acting," said Jackson, who also starred in Perry's film, "Why Did I Get Married?".
"Don't get me wrong, I'm very thankful for all that God has bestowed upon me as far as singing is concerned, but I never thought I would be a singer," she said. "My father wanted me to sing. I wanted to act. And, now, I'm finally living that dream."
Still, Jackson said she has no plans to stop performing or making music but does see writing and developing scripts in her future. "I'm really drawn to the action stuff and I love sci-fi. That really drives me crazy," she said.
The role of "author" also soon will be attached to her name. "True You," a book chronicling Jackson's lifelong struggles with weight and self-esteem, is set for release this fall.
"It's not an autobiography, but I tell anecdotes about my life from when I was a kid to now," she said. "Things happen that can affect a child for the rest of their life and I didn't want to just speak to adults about these issues, so the book reflects that."

firstly that picture actually proves she isn't a slut, why? Cause she is fully clothed. What she is doing is expressing sexual and natural fantasy by bringing a fan up on stage on ONE part of the show. She tests the boundaries of imagination for the fan. It's fun and at worst naughty.
What she doesn't do like real sluts like gaga and madonna is express sex in every performance and through revealing flesh. That is slutty.
Secondly, I do think that insulting janet is insulting to michael to. It says little about you to hate on someone whom michael loved and was close too.

I knooww!! I totally agree with you!!
She actually said in one of those interviews that it is her favorite part (so is mine)!
I see it more like fun, u know... teasing a guy and leave him like :dropdead: it is fun! When I first watched "Would You Mind" (Live in Hawaii) I was like "you gooooooooooooo girl"!!!!
And the guy's reactions is funny!! Poor guys!!Janet is beautiful and very very classy!! But when she goes up on stage, it is her time to have fun, and to live her fantasies!! I understand it :yes:, cause I wanted to be/to live/to perform like that too!! It's all about having fun and showing your "wild side" a little bit!!
Thanks for the warning Ivy! I agree with you!! But seems like some members doesnt listen to the MODS! :no:
