After the Superbowl/Justin Timberlake debacle no US network wanted to touch Janet Jackson. MTV deserted her (they refused to play her videos) and she was treated like a leper. The woman was vilified and ignored! But since the tragic death of her brother Michael they all now want a piece of Janet. They all want to hear the star’s story and now embrace her like they care. These people are so two-faced! I just hope that Janet has a long memory! Anyway check out Janet’s interview with Good Morning America.

The Miss Black Britain beauty pageant took place over the weekend in London, and my sources tell me that it was a complete and utter shambles. I’ve been told that the event started 2 hours late, that the night’s host American actress Nia Long walked out in the middle of proceedings and UK artist Young Nate who had been invited to perform was asked to leave the building. Those who were in attendance also had this to say: Via Facebook Forum Tantastic Sam – My group and I […]
