Janet Jackson Fan

Twenty years after its release, Janet Jackson is going to “runaway” back to the Control era with her signature blend of dance, funk and pop on her next album, due this spring. Returning as producers on this Virgin set are Janet’s longtime musical partners Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. During an interview with Chicago’s radio station WGCI, Janet’s boyfriend, Jermaine DuPri, spoke enthusiastically about the new album, in particular about a song that samples Jones Girls’ “You Gonna Make Me Love Somebody Else.” According to foxnews.com, Janet has picked up playing the guitar, not only for her upcoming album, but also for her part in the movie Tennessee. Even with her Super Bowl fiasco, Janet’s last album, Damita Jo, debuted high and fizzled away without producing a Top 40 hit.

HIP-hop impresario Jermaine Dupri is shopping a book proposal to publishers this week. The Grammy-nominated producer and rapper’s memoir – tentatively titled “Young, Rich and Dangerous” – will dish on working with everyone from Mariah Carey and Usher to Bow Wow and kiddie rap duo Kriss Kross. Look for Dupri’s story to also dwell on his relationship with longtime girlfriend Janet Jackson.

Inland PE columnist Brian Moran references Janet’s nude video in a column he wrote expressing his disappointment with this week’s Apprentice episode:

” All week long, I’ve been psyched for the return of Markus. But there were no fireworks as the guys feigned excitement and gave one of those “Let’s leave the boardroom in the boardroom” talks. It was about as pointless as the paparazzi unveiling tapes of Janet Jackson sun bathing nude. (Ah, guys, I hate to burst your bubble but 100 million people in the US alone have seen Janet Jackson naked. Thanks for the effort though. It was nice to reminisce.)”
