Janet Jackson was told by America or TMZ or someone that she was totally Chubbo City, lost a ton of weight she didn’t need to lose, and now has a book coming out so you can help perpetuate size myths in the privacy of your own, Cheeto-filled home. Will it involve wrapping youself in those weird leather things she likes to wear? Or maybe, you know, dancing? She really dances a lot. You should try dancing! Or exercising. At all.
“Everybody asks me — men, women — how did I do it?” she says. “Even young people will come up to me and they have an issue with their weight and they’re very concerned. So it’s basically my journey; it’s not just this sterile, weight loss and how to do it book, but my journey even from when I was a kid … being an emotional eater. It takes you through those moments in my life up ’til now and what worked for me. And hopefully within that, if it doesn’t work for them, maybe they’ll find something that does work for them and a nice place for them to be content with who they are.”
Janet, Janet. How could you ignore all the lessons you taught us about size discrimination in your unforgettable, heart-wrenching documentary Nutty Professor II: The Klumps?
Janet Jackson Sets Sights On Fall Tour, Book [Billboard}
Given the XXX-rated content of her previous 4 albums, I suspect that it isn’t time on the treadmill that’s helped her burn off all those calories consumed during her post-Velvet Rope/pre-Jermaine years….
hey, christoper, didn’t they tell you they usually close shop at like 3:30? Time to go get drunk somewhere.
@DavidWatts: I always thought all of these posts were written earlier in the day and then set to post at certain times each day.
Ooops, did I pull the curtain back too far…?
@michaelpop: Depends on the day.
I just assumed she dropped 10 or so pounds when she lost the metal nipple jewelry.
I don’t know why she bothers with a book. All anyone needs is a personal trainer. Oh, and a chef. Umm, and the media calling you a fat-ass every chance they get.
It’s high time someone started selling that weight-loss package.

See, that hataration is what I’m talking about!
She’s probably going to gain it back before the ink dries.
