  1. > The 5x Grammy winner’s manager Mo Elmasri admitted the Jackson previously spoke “based on misinformation” about the Democratic presidential nominee’s family and ethnicity during a recent interview with The Guardian.

    > “She deeply respects Vice President Kamala Harris and her accomplishments as a Black and Indian woman. Janet apologizes for any confusion caused and acknowledges the importance of accurate representation in public discourse,” Elmasri told Buzzfeed in a statement. “We appreciate the opportunity to address this and will remain committed to promoting unity.”

    She saw the blowback from her comments and is doing damage control. A coworker of mine is a HUGE Janet fan, and when she saw the original comments, she was in crisis mode.

    K but is she planning to reevaluate or show any skepticism toward her usual *sources* of information going forward? Now that trusting the voices she’s been trusting has made her very publicly look foolish?

    What a bubble she must live in. Does she not know how much her brother was destroyed by the public for not being black enough due to his skin condition?

  5. Honestly no excuse. You have the money, the resources, the notoriety and influence and yet you based on what you “heard.”

  6. You mean” based on me being a moron who lostens to weird people who flutter around me like moths”

    Janet didn’t release any apology. Those were her manager’s remarks speaking on her behalf in a statement. Why? It would take no effort for the comments to be released as a statement by Janet, herself. Is having the apologetic remarks be attributed to her directly somehow beneath her? Poorly handled.

    Maybe you should have thought about that before opening your mouth in the first place.

    It’s so obvious she is a “FOX is real news not entertainment show”conspiracy peddler

    I’m hoping my wife doesn’t see what Janet said. She’ll be heartbroken

  11. What did Maya Angelo always say: When someone tells you who they are…believe them

  12. “I haven’t watched the news in a few days…” and “they discovered her father is white.”

    What a moron. Now is she hateful and wants to believe the worst no matter what, like most conservatives, or is she just incredibly stupid, and living in a bubble, and so stupid ON TOP of stupid that she’ll just spout nonsense about even important topics?

    We’re all leaning in to hear what Janet Jackson has to say about politics.

  14. * Is she living under a rock??!?!

    * Who exactly is she surrounding herself with?

    * Does she know how to use her phone to look at reliable news sites?

    I don’t see an apology from Jackson. I see an apology from her PR team. They are not the same.

    unfortunatley for janet, the damage has been done.

    it’s a shame because i happened to become a janet fan this year and i was hoping she’d have some sort of viral moment to help people recognize what a great catalgoue she has. but this is definitely not the kind of virality i was thinking of.

    Maybe stop and think for one second before you open your stupid mouth.

  18. Why does anyone think Janet jackson would be in touch with reality and real-world things. She’s been ultra rich for over 30 years and probably not lived in the US for a long time as well

    Someone’s ethnicity isn’t up to anyone…Racial/genetic makeup is a fact. We all are the combination of our parents and ancestors biological makeup. This bothers me because she sounds like she only watches conservatives/conservative news/Trump’s BS!

  20. Edit: Janet Jackson tries being on the wrong side of history and decided it sucked.

    Hey Janet, didn’t you put out a whole song about how if ya wanna be in control ya gotta get yourself in the know?

  22. Lux_Luthor_777 on

    Too late. We now know what an idiot you are. Respect has already been lost, Ms. Jackson

  23. ImprovementSilly2895 on

    Kind of ironic considering everything said about her brother

  24. InjuryOnly4775 on

    She’s so weird, she goes underground for years, then pops up with this garbage.
    She’s been out of touch with the world since forever, I just don’t expect much from her anyway. And I’m a fan 😆

    “I saw it on the television” -Janet Jackson Probably

    It would literally take 2 seconds to learn the truth. More importantly, both her parents became incredibly accomplished despite being immigrants to this country. They deserve the respect they have rightfully earned. Garbage like this is just horrendous. An apology just doesn’t cut it.
