In order for Janet to get back on track, she needs to get new collaborators.  Sorry, but the Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis connection has simply ran out of steam after 20 years.  If I were to remake Janet, I'd have her record acid jazz (very danceable but classy music that's very popular in England.  It's kind of like Patrice Rushen's classic "Forget-Me-Nots") and have her dressed in sexy evening dresses that show off her curves in a ladylike manner.  Her subject matter needs to mature, also.  The sex kitten image is just getting tired.

Michael Jackson\n\nMichael Joseph Jackson (born August 29, 1958), also known as the King of Pop and Wacko Jacko, is a musician and entertainer whose successful music career and controversial personal life have been at the forefront of pop culture for the last quarter-century.\n\nJackson began his musical career at the age of five as lead singer of The Jackson 5 and made his first solo recordings in 1971 while remaining a member of the group. He began a full-fledged solo career in 1979 and formally parted with his siblings in 1984. In his solo career, Jackson recorded and co-produced the best-selling album of all-time (Thriller with approximate worldwide sales of 60 million), received thirteen Grammy awards and charted thirteen number-one singles in the U.S. Michael Jackson has been awarded numerous honors, including the World Music Award's "Best-selling pop male artist of the Millennium" and he is a double-inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as a member of The Jackson 5 in 1997 and in 2001 as a solo artist.\n\nHe has been married twice and has three children: Prince and Paris with Deborah Jeanne Rowe, and Prince Michael II (better known as "Blanket") through surrogacy.\n\nFrom 1988 to 2005, Jackson lived on his Neverland Ranch property, on which he built an amusement park and private zoo for the enjoyment of economically disadvantaged and terminally ill children. His frequently held sleepover parties have received widespread critical media-coverage, especially after he revealed that he sometimes slept in the same bed with several unrelated children. This led to him being accused of child sexual abuse both in 1993 and 2003. He was eventually tried and acquitted of the latter allegations in 2005.\n\n****************************************************************\n\nThe Beginning of Jackson's Career: 1969 – 1980\n\nMichael Jackson was born to Joseph and Katherine Jackson in Gary, Indiana. He was the seventh of nine children, including Rebbie, Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, LaToya, Marlon, Randy and Janet.\n\nJoseph organized his children into a music group called "The Jackson 5". The group played local clubs and bars, building up a following and eventually signing a contract with Motown Records in March 1969. The Jackson 5 soon became national stars with their first four singles charting at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Michael also released four solo albums and charted many hit singles as part of the Jackson 5 franchise including the hits "Got to Be There", "Ben", and a remake of Bobby Day's "Rockin' Robin".\n\nThe Jackson 5's sales declined after 1973, and the group chafed under Motown's strict refusal to allow the Jacksons creative control or input. In 1976, the group signed a new contract with CBS Records (first joining the Philadelphia International division and later moving over to Epic Records). Upon learning that the Jackson 5 had signed a contract with another label, Motown sued the group for breach of contract. As a result, they lost the rights to use the "Jackson 5" name and logo and changed their named to "The Jacksons". The newly named Jacksons, featuring youngest brother Randy in Jermaine's place, continued their successful career, touring internationally, and releasing six albums between 1976 and 1984.\n\nIn 1978, Michael Jackson starred as the scarecrow in The Wiz with former-labelmate Diana Ross playing Dorothy. The musical film's songs were arranged by famed producer Quincy Jones, who established a partnership with Jackson and agreed to produce his first solo album. Off the Wall, released in 1979, was a worldwide hit, and became the first album in history to spawn four top-ten hits, including "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" and "Rock With You". The album went on to sell 20 million copies worldwide, establishing Jackson as a musical force without his brothers. A

Not any more.  She is divorced from one-time music executive Tommy Mottola, who discovered Mariah when she gave him a demo tape of hers at a party.

It's up in the air right now, all I know is that they're recording currently and they won't settle for mediocre songs.\n\nAnd no, they didn't break up.

R&B singer Ashanti is being sued by her former manager for breach of contract. The singer was hit with legal papers filed in New York City's Manhattan Federal Court today by Linda Berk, who is seeking an undisclosed sum for allegedly having her contract terminated in 2003. Berk, who first met Ashanti in 1993, claims she transformed her client into a "music and entertainment superstar" after signing a deal in 1999 to co-manage Ashanti with her mother Tina Douglas. A spokesperson for Ashanti says, "The contract naturally expired and we didn't renew it."\n\nTheir are rumors going around that Ashanti is pregnant. All I'm going to say is who knows? Congratulations to her if she is.

She became a priest (seriously).\n\n\nIn 2003, announced she had fibromyalgia, a illness known for causing incredible fatigue. This was a factor in her retirement from music.

It is truly sad when u see someone with such talent going down the wrong road in life! I heard her sing on a TV program and she can't even sing anymore. What a shame! I watched her show with Bobby Brown and that is what i thought too that she is crazy but it could just be from taking too many drugs.

There are far more reasons to get with Britney than for a career.. but yes.  She was out clubbing too much and made some decisions that have totally disrupted her career.  She would have been better off going for a Joe Shmo nobody type than some wanna be rapper and dancer.

No that ended a long time ago....in 1994. I used to watch the show as a kid and I loved it. I think there is a DVD that shows the best of Christina, Justin and Britney on MMC.

I hope not...The new thing in hip hop is to claim you are retiring then come back ... so probably not. \n\nI want him to take some time and get back to the roots of his talent. He has been putting out garbage lately.

Beyonce has had some hits but you can't compare the two.  Janet is one of a kind.  She is classic.  Beyonce is the new breed.  Beyonce makes you dance.  Janet sets the mood with songs like\n"Anytime, Anyplace".   \n"If"\n"When  I think of You"\n"Love Will Never Do Without You"\n"Let's Wait A While"\n"Again"

I believe their last album was the one that they did with Jay-z... But don't hold me to that. I'll do some checking and see what I can find out..\n\nOkay I checked their web site and it says that they are working on a new album as we speak. I was correct in telling you the last thing that they recorded was with Jay-z. It was called collison course.

yes, it's her...don't know about the break up, but I doubt it...probably just a solo record she put out.
