Janet needs a squirt of hot coffee up her fat ass to get her dead career back on track. It's worked for her before. maybe the miracle of caffeine can work again.

Janet Jackson's tour of Japan has been postponed, with promoters blaming the global financial crisis. :lmao:

Japanese concert promoter Kyodo Yokohama said the singer cancelled five concerts due to take place in February.

The 42-year-old Grammy Award winner had planned to perform in several major cities, including Nagoya and Osaka.

Jackson, on her first world tour in nearly seven years, cancelled seven performances in the US in 2008 because of a bout of vertigo.

The gigs in Japan will be rescheduled later this year, with new dates expected to be announced in March.

The star was recently in the UK to support older sister LaToya during her stint in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

I seriously wonder about Janice's mental health. With her history of cancelling gigs and tours does she really think people will take these ridiculous excuses seriously.

Her treatment of her fans is soooooo bad (far worse than even Madonna). No wonder her career is down the toilet.

i think almost any career can get back on track with a good song.

Sadly she has not provided that in many many years.

Janet's not had a hit in about 7 years.

I think she may be capable of having a 1 off hit again but in terms of a career involving albums and touring she is finished.

She should try a role in a sitcom. That's about the only way I can see her getting a steady wage again.

She's so done, it's almost comical. I wish she would stop trying cause these constant cancellations just make her look (even) worse.

The only thing she can do now is an artistic album, one with some depth, a la, The Velvet Rope. She's never going to get a "hit" again. She needs the acclaim from critics. The majority of people who were fans and just laugh at her, are the ones who would gladly support her again if she became "real" again. Since 2000, she tried to sell herself out to become another teen pop sensation. You can't go from The Velvet Rope in 1997, to the horrendous, All For You. She was on a critical high in 1997. She sold herself out, and dumbed down her career, thinking that she could get in with the younger crowd. I remember in 2000, when she did that horrible Klumps movie, she was interviewed and she said how she likes this type of dance, and that type that the "kids" are doing now.

She was in that Madonna position at the time, totally out of it, and trying to "fit in". She wasn't even old at the time. I think she was 33.

Once her ex-husband, Rene, left, all hell broke loose. Then, Jermaine Dupri, happened. He is the worst thing to even happen to her. He has turned her ghetto, and not just in her music, but her entire mindset.

She truly believes that having the name "Jackson" mean something anymore. No one cares about the Jacksons, and most people don't even know who the hell they are, as in iconic status. I referring to people are are in their late teens. They don't get that Jackson Family Hour era. They know there's a white guy, Michael Jackson, who's a creepy pedophile, and they know someone who is supposedly sister, Janet, who took her titty out on television. That's the end of it.

You can keep riding on your last hit 25 years ago. You are as good as your last album, and that includes Michael Jackson, who was really only majorly successful as a solo artist in one decade. Michael has done the same dance moves since he became a solo act. It's old and tired, and when he makes songs now, they are laughable.

The family is just d-list now, and there is still some hope for Janet. There was always much promise for Janet because she was dubbed, "the normal Jackson". Then the Superbowl shit happened, and she looked as grungy as the rest of them. Remember that in 2003, Michael Jackson was arrested, and in 2005, he was tried in court. She was one who was going in with the family all in white, to his daily clown trial. Janet just became one of the clan, full of freaks, especially when her brother was jumping up on car roofs, and coming to court in pajamas, not to mention that freak fans.

Her sex, sex, sex albums, and doing next to Penthouse photo shoots, made her look even more desperate, and put her in LaToya territory of the 1990s.

Janet was doing a exercise book, and even an exercise video a year ago. It got shelved. Then she had the lingerie line, which was on display and shown at events, but never happened. She has become very LaToya, which is really pathetic.

I still want her and La Toya to do a remake of Baby Jane. Granted, seeing La Toya torture Janet for 2.5 hours would be fun, but the whole storyline is so Toy/Janet, since Toy was supposed to be the big breakout female star of the family and the one who everyone thought was pretty, etc..
