I kept waiting for her to do an album of pure pop dance like Rhianna had done so successfully. Instead her music was so basic and cheap just like Beyonce is doing now.

The top 50 songs should only include her hits…some of those songs I don't even recognize…LOL….the list is average at best…some I agree and some I don't…..I don't think RN should be number 1….that wouldn't even make my top 10 of hers….

Has Janet Jackson secretly become a Muslim? Rumours that she has converted to the religion of her Qatari multi-millionaire husband

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-4089276/Has-Janet-Jackson-secretly-Muslim-raunchy-star-baby-50-s-good-reason-believe-rumours-converted-religion-Qatari-multi-millionaire-husband.html

Even by the standards of one of pop music’s most enduring stars, it’s been an impressive new chart entry for Janet Jackson. Straight in at number one in the list of the world’s oldest first-time celebrity mothers, she has given birth aged 50.

Ending one of the most heavily scrutinised pregnancies in recent showbusiness history, the singer announced on Tuesday that she and her Qatari multi-millionaire businessman husband, Wissam Al Mana, had a son.

There were few details — there never are from one of planet celebrity’s most private stars — on a birth that has been subject of much speculation since March, when Jackson postponed her world tour so she and Al Mana could focus on starting a family.

Janet has recently reemerged promoting her music and a new tour. She went on "The View" to surprise Whoopi and the rest of the co-hosts and entire audience with tickets. She also showed up on Jimmy Fallon's late night show and did a very cool rendition of "Runaway" using classroom instruments. If you're a Janet fan this will put a smile on your face.

I've looked at a couple of appearances with her lately. (Including the one on Fallon). And she seems happy and as gracious as ever. She really is lovely and I'm glad to see she's happy.

The Janet/Justin Super Bowl debacle and Janet’s subsequent blacklisting are reportedly getting the “Framing Britney Spears” treatment. JT is probably bracing himself for another brutal reckoning (as well as Les Moonves, whose obsession with ruining Janet’s career will also be tackled in the doc).

Janet didn't really help her career either by releasing some truly awful albums in the 00's and then going on a near decade break from music to focus on crap Tyler Perry movies and marrying a rich Arab businessman for his fortune...

 

But what happened to her in the immediate fallout was both racist and sexist to the highest degree.

    • Another lot of skipped episodes to look forward to when the time comes on Videoland. So annoying. They have skipped so many, especially in  season 15 where they skipped 19 episodes throughout the season. Is it just me or is the vault down? It's like a different error message this time so it's hard to know if it's me this time.
    • thank you for uploading the rest of season 12!!! I hope i can get them soon the links down! Thank you again for posting the B&B classic episodes to revisit!!!!
    • Hmm, okay.  BTW, my only problem with Kai & the surgery story is where is this guy's family? And, another BTW, I think I may have inadvertently added to that rumor from last year about a male descendant of Justus Ward. You see, that is an idea I could really get behind! Like I would pay to see those scenes. And, true, I did hear it ... [sheepish grin]

      Yes they can. While rare, its not like soaps in the past havent said F that and used flashbacks of a scene even when a recast has been done. OLTL used to do that
    • Well, I am glad to know that & for it to make sense, so thanks for the info &  the perspective, also. At the end of AMC 1.0, I thought the new young talent was really quite good, but I missed Eden & NuBianca just ... well, I wasn't 100% sold on her & Bianca was so important to me. But then, Tad & Dixie were also important & yep, there's another problem, for me I mean. I'm not your typical AMC fan but I hung in there anyway. I know what you mean because it wasn't as good as it once had been but it was still Agnes's show in Pine Valley. Some of that is a bittersweet nostalgic clinging to the past, I guess. By that time I'd been through so many show cancellations. AW, Santa Barbara, PC, The City, GL, ATWT.

          Betsy Snyder, when she was at DAYS was part of the WGA winning writing team before she died, tragically far too young.  
    • Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      ) EDIT maybe I'm wrong.  I found the quicksand scene

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?    
    • But then he HATES the original Heather Webber (Cher's half sister played her, right?) and we know what happened when Robin would step into the role a year after this.  He does seem pretty spot on about actors who show promise otherwise.  It's interesting he knocks OLTL early on (though I loved all the recently released episodes from this era we got) but does give a lot of credit to the actress playing Cathy despite earlier complaining about her story.  And over all, while quite negative, his various pros and cons on the shows sounds about right with what I know of the shows at this time. This was a July dated issue of the magazine but and I know they date mags a month or two in advance--obviously when he wrote this he didn't know Lovers and Friends was gonna go off the air (in May I think).
    • You know one of the soap outlets posed that question just last week: Who do you want Trina with Spencer or Kai? And, of course, the picture of Spencer was NAC. I said, well, a lot. I chose Kai. I said that Spencer had been an entitled brat & that some people valued him over her, when I valued her above all others. I guess we'll see.
    • You're right. The only thing I can think of is if GH finally decides to bring back Spencer.
