I hope that Janet and her family adjust well to the fact Michael is gone on to a better place now… he is at peace now.

Janet wants to take over were he left off.

This was a really good interview! Janet has matured since Michael’s death. Don’t get me wrong, i love Janet as much as i love Michael, but for once she came of of some of that phoniness she used to spew in interviews. i mean, a couple of times she let-it-be-broke!There was some base in her voice!!

Janet looks absolutely beautiful, definately doesnt look 40, and thats not just some good makeup, Loved the interview, and she made me look at JD in a different light, and they know they are still together.

The is the first time she doesn’t seem like a delusional woman pretending to be a giggling school girl. Hell, even if it took 40 years to get there I’m just glad she’s finally comfortable enough to be herself. Thank you Jermaine Dupri for appreciating the donk!

Was interesting to watch. Noticed that sometimes she sounds like LaToya and when she laughed it reminded me of MJ.

her album’s gonna FLOP WHAT SHE’S GONNA DO SHOW OFF THE GOODIES AGAIN bout time her and jd broke up wonder when the jacksons will quit covering up mj and admit to us what we all knew.

Is Rihanna's sharp n pointy witchy fingernails took the oath banned

11/19/09, 20:55:pm

ok… there’s something a tad strange. why is janet lying about the superbowl performance? the last lyrics if the song are “gonna get you nake by the end of this song”, hence the pasty.

That was one of the best commentaries that I have seen in a while. Thank you for setting the record straight Robin and Janet!

That was a great interview, and Janet looked beautiful.

Beyonce, Ciara, Rihanna, etc please take note, this is the way to do an interview.

Janet is beautiful, honest, articulate, everything you want to see in a major star. This interview has to be one of the best, if not the best, in recent years.

I thought it was a great interview, she looked great, spoke w/ great diction and honest. Since the business has certainly changed from her “control” days her album will be purchased mainly by true fans like Whitney. I can see her and JD getting back together…she glowed when she spoke about him. I wish her well in her grieving process.

REALTALK

11/19/09, 22:07:pm

@ abeille I agree

Why are people so eager for Janet and JD to get back together? Honestly, how many times did Janet say that she’s at a different place in her life? She said that she doesn’t have time for drama , so let the woman be single for a minute.

i loved this new Janet, the woman Janet, the sophisticated, matured lady. Ever since MJ death, she has literally changed in front of our lives. Since the memorial, she has done a360*. Its like she wants to be Janet 3.0 good look. She has said that the family looks to her for strength. I’m glad. I hope she continues to be there for MJ kids.

I hope Janet finds a man that is as mature as she is.

Robin Roberts did a phenomenal job with this interview. She clicked well with Janet, and asked questions that were relevant and not evasive. I loved the fact that she seemed so reflective on the bond Janet had with MJ. I don’t care what anyone says Robin Roberts is the truth, when it comes to interviews and put Oprah and Barbara to shame. At the end of the interview, I was like, wow, Janet and Robin could be friends.

Btw: both she and Janet looked beautiful yesterday. I loved Janet’s look.

11/20/09, 00:35:am

That tee-hee-hee, O-I’m-just-o-so-shy-***** was cute during the ‘Control’ days. But now that she’s over FORTY, it’s making her look like an airhead. You’re too old for that stale schtick, Janet.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWSHADDAAAP!!!!!

Good Interview----syd

11/20/09, 00:39:am

The best interview she’s ever done.

11/20/09, 00:55:am

@ Juicy J when was Janet ever delusional??

She has had to see her brother be killed by show business and her relationship with her father was broken at a young age. That shyness is for protection, trust. Janet handles her biz when the cameras go off. She owns a bank! And she is the only Jackson to not go broke. I hope she is really single, she will have a huge comeback!

LOVE YOU JANET

I absolutely love Janet and appreciate her sharing her emotions about her ups and downs with love, weight, and losing a brother I have always felt a closeness to their family and can’t wait for her book to come out. I would love to meet Janet she seems so sweet, do your thang J!!

Janet has always been this way. If you were a fan you would know.

Only records I will be buying this year is Micheal’s, end of story, there isnt another artist on this planet, related to him or not I would actually want to listen to for the rest of this year, maybe even next too!!

I am obsessed with MJ!

11/20/09, 06:28:am

i wonder if Robin asked her for a date?

Alrighty Then...

11/20/09, 09:03:am

I love her… she just seems so genuine… And I like Robin too. You could tell Janet was able to relax a little more with her…

i know the truth

11/20/09, 09:17:am

why do ni66ers have such low standards–that was a horrible interview–revealed nothing new about her–and robin roberts was playing a t-ball game with the questions–any way the numbers speak for themselves–the show was creamed by CSI gaining double what janet wacksons plea for attention garnered–and she barely beat out the Jay Leno show (by a little under 2 million viwers)with Larry the Cable guy and a panel discussion on about the true sexuality of Ernie and Burt. janet is fake and an over the hill lip syncing lyer

Berni

11/20/09, 09:26:am

Janet is and always will be the little sister I grew up with. Does it make me disfunctional that I thought our big brother Michael was a stud? Anyway she is a wonderful human being with so much love for her family, the interview really broke my heart though. Love you Janet…..

Berni

11/20/09, 09:28:am

I know the truth, learn how to spell. Us ni66ers as you call it, built the world and don’t you forget that boy!!!!

i know the truth

11/20/09, 09:32:am

Berni sounds like you know the individuals and you don’t–IT IS A FANTASY–that’s what entertainment is–MJ got caught up in the fantasy and that is what killed him. He wanted to BE what he appeared to be–never without the full makeup and wig–for example

GOOD INTERVIEW,JANET SO PRETTY AND SWEET LOVE HER.
CANT WAIT TO SEE HER PERFORM SUNDAY AT THE AMA.

@crazychris,

you must not be a happy person? And its interesting to know that you have the inside on the Jacksons. Anyway, Janet is it! Can’t wait to see her turn it out on the AMA!

Janet’s very sweet and beautiful.
Much love Janet!

11/20/09, 11:29:am

Janet is a sweetheart.
I think about MJ everyday too and imagine i never even saw him in person. *seeking counselling soon*

R.I.P MICHAEL I LOVE YOU FOREVER!!!

Greg

11/20/09, 11:40:am

WOW @ i KNOW THE TRUTH

For someone who seems too dislike the Jacksons you sure researched the ratings on the special, 7 million viewers for an interview is not bad at all

Prestonelite

11/20/09, 13:23:pm

Why do the black women in here keep saying they hope she is single?

So stupid.

Its okay to love and be loved by some one, old bitter fat black woman want every one to be lonley with them. ugh

wonderful interview, god bless the fam during their healing process…cant wait for her upcoming project, luv me some Ms Jackson…..RIP MJ!!!!!!

This was the Janet people needed to see the intimate, shy, humble, hurt, and forgive janet. I wish her much more success because she’d been black listed since Nipplegate (STILL NOT BUYING ANY OF JT’S MUSIC BECAUSE OF IT) BUT hopefully THIS will make people start to appreciate the REAL talent we have had sitting in front of us all these years. People used to say Ci-ERROR would take her spot, I dont think her spots on auction right now… Janet is still Janet… and STILL PHINE AS HELL

i know the truth

11/20/09, 15:28:pm

hi greg–when u gonna do me?

Nova

11/20/09, 15:37:pm

I don’t understand why people think Janet is all of a sudden doing big things since Michael’s death. That woman has been on top since the 80’s and has am*****ed more $$$ than you could even imagine. This woman exudes cl*****. Anyone who doesn’t recognize that simply doesn’t want to recognize.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWSHADDAAAP!!!!

11/20/09, 18:55:pm

Ash, I am a fan. I’ve followed Janet since ‘Good Times.’ I’ve had a major crush since ‘Diff’rent Strokes.’ That’s why I’m frustrated at her arrested development. There was a Larry King interview she did not long ago where she just came across as an idiot. That shy schoolgirl sctick she does is unconvincing and so tired.

Janet looks FAB!

Ace–I couldn’t have said it better myself. FCK JT! White boys wanna ‘hang’ and sht, but when the true sht hit the fan–they pull the white card.
