  13. JJFAN1814 January 10, 2011

    Lol @ Viki.

    Janet will buy your favs entire career. Get with it and keep eating that bowl of hate for breakfast. Smooches!

  14. JJFAN1814 January 10, 2011

    @ Viki

    IF YOU DIDN’T F****** KNOW, SHE WANTS THIS TOUR TO BE HER MOST INTIMATE AND PERSONAL TOUR WITH HER FANS. SO WHY THE F*** WOULD SHE WANT BIG ARENAS??

    Epic fail for not doing your research. *Nicki voice* Haters you can kill yourselves.

  15. gfhfgh January 10, 2011

  16. Viki January 10, 2011

    Most intimate my ass. That’s just an excuse cause she knows she cannot carry bigger venues. H** please. Ain’t nobody checkin for the queen of Pop

    And is that Janet in that pic or Jermaime?

  17. Viki January 10, 2011

    JannaMan’s Last album went Cardboard, and her tour was even more a disappointment

  18. JJFAN1814 January 10, 2011

    @Viki

    To be a hater you sure is gawking up this post. You mad because Janet’s name alone will forever outshine your favs career??? *Sips tea*

    i dont know where i want to see her at either DC, NY or Atlantic City

  22. JanetSlaysNothing January 10, 2011

    There are too many divas ahead of Janet for her to be any “Queen”. I think Britney even surpassed the ballheaded wrinkly biatch.

    BeyonceSlaysForever

    I guess the only people going to this show, is the 5 people on this blog

  23. spunkypoop January 10, 2011

    VIKI stay spitting HATE!!!! VIKI go to school and do your research on @JanetJackson the real #QueenJanet and RESPECT her CATALOG b****.

  24. SEXYKITTY January 10, 2011

    Detroit?

  27. Viki January 10, 2011

    @SpunkyPoop

    Before Janet is the queen of anything, She has to get through Beyonce, Madonna, Britney, Mariah, Celine, Whitney, and even Rihanna 1st.

    H** Sit

  28. jmoore January 10, 2011

    OMG i have been waiting for this announcement. Radio City i will be there baby!!!!!!!

  29. kw January 10, 2011

    Janet @ Radio City, can’t wait. Will definiately be there. I love that venue, not a bad seat in the house.

  30. ugh January 10, 2011

    yes b****!!!!!!!!! she’s coming to my city but i don’t know many concerts to be at the Sony Centre. I wonder how big it is * goes to check it out*

  31. FUSION January 10, 2011

    People need to show Janet some more respect man. Who care’s if the venues are smaller! The fact of the matter is that she’ll still sell them out and she’s still got a tour. I don’t see what the problem is. Of course its not gonna be as big as her previous tours, but you know what, it’s a damn sight better than the likes of Rihanna do when it comes to touring. Janet is a legend in her own right. People should’t talk smack about her, when they come on this board ranting and raving about artists who can’t even break 40k units in their first week. Moreover, even if you don’t like Janet’s music, styl etc, she is one of the most graceful entertainers around – she’s pure class and should be shown more respect. This is coming from someone who isn’t even a massive Janet fan!

  32. d January 10, 2011

    went alll the way to vegas for the rock with you tour. it was sold out and a packed area, and fam with to the stapes to see her. I love the haters saying janet cant carry a arenas when this is ans up close and personal tour. Not the largest tour, Other acts still havent broken her attendance records, she set the standard for stage shows. ive seen all of janets tours from RN, JANET, VELVET ROPE, ALFOR YOU AND ROCWITH YOU. Check the DVD’s cause yall sholl aint saying she can’t preform and if not one checking for her and see other acts instead, they not getting the Show Janet puts on, you want A BEYONCE BURGER OF A JANET STEAK.

  37. Blue Kid January 10, 2011

    I went to a Janet Jackson concert in Las Vegas she slayed. Janet put on a show, she is a wonderful performer. I will diffidently be at her Toronto concert.

  38. Royalkev January 10, 2011

    @ Vicki, your delusions tell a story about you that reveals your warped mentality, immaturity or just lack of any good sense. Janet was here first. The year ’86 (Control – breakout album) comes before ’99 (Britney, Baby One More Time), 2003(Beyonce, DIL) and 2005 (Rihanna, Music of the sun). Also 100 million albums sold (Janet) > than 80million albums (Britney), 25 million (Beyonce) and 17million (Rihanna). Also 10#1 hot 100’s > 9( Rihanna’s), 5(Beyonce) and 3(Britney)… You see where I’m going? I didn’t touching on tours because I’d have to convert the money and audience attendance over to what it would be worth today and compare, but Janet’s debut would be in the neighborhood of 150million to Bey and Brit’s 100+ and Rihanna’s… what $17. Anyway, I love Bee, but you have to respect a lengend! For the record she has records Whitney, Madonna and Mariah don’t with only the success of 6 albums, so sit and stop drinking so early in the morning!

  39. beyoncefan January 10, 2011

    yasssss janet is the best female performer alive!!! cant wait to go……she puts on a better show than my queen beyonce ..its not all about the booty shaking ..its about real entertainment

  44. Nichole January 10, 2011

    All bets that this tour is gonna bomb just like her last.

    The general public are so over Janet’s nymphomaniac ass.

    Madonna puts her to shame each time.

  45. DION-ISH January 10, 2011

    @FUSION

    WTF you say about RIhanna b****?!

    Anyway imma be DEAD as hell if she cant sell out these venues ROFL.

  46. Dex January 10, 2011

    Had to scale it down because she knows she can’t sell out stadiums and areas anymore. Hell, her last 3 albums flopped, as did her last tour. Janet’s tour is headed for a casino and fairground near you.

  47. FUTURESTARdelux January 10, 2011

    I hope her tour does good and we get a new album soon but please lets be real, we know she’s doing smaller venues because she can’t sell bigger ones at the moment.
    Hopefully by the time she tours next she’ll have a hit album and is doing Arenas again. #NoShade

  48. TWITTER.COM/SEAN_VS_SEANDRA January 10, 2011

    LOL@ HATERS USING THE SAME OL TIRED ASS READS!

    SO LATE AND SO PRESSED!

    ITS CALLED UP CLOSE & PERSONAL! SHE BEEN SAID THAT SINCE DAY ONE. LOL

    MARIAH
    BEYONCE
    AND OTHERS HAVE DONE THEATERS!

    JANET WILL ALSO BE DOING A STADIUM IN HOUSTON IN MARCH!

  49. TWITTER.COM/SEAN_VS_SEANDRA January 10, 2011

    LOL@ HATERS THINKING THE SPEAKING FACTS!

    SHE DID ARENAS IN 2008, 2009, 2010!

    AND SHE IS DOING A STADIUM IN 2011!

    TIL YA FAV CAN SELL OUT STADIUM IN 7 MINS FOR 4 DATES! THAN TALK TO ME

  50. Tazmanbb January 10, 2011

    WTF! I have never heard of most of these venues! Are they high school gyms or cafeterias?

  51. Tazman January 10, 2011

    Janets Up Close and Personal Tour my @ss! She is playing small venues because she cannot sell out arenas anymore! We are also in an economic recession too. I am sure these gymnasium shows will not sellout either!

  52. TWITTER.COM/SEAN_VS_SEANDRA January 10, 2011

    LOL@ IT BEING THE SAME HATER UNDER DIFFERENT NAMES!

    YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS PROMOTE! WHETHER GOOD OR BAD HUNNY!

  53. WednesdayNews January 10, 2011

    I’ll be there! I’m happy to see her at 5,000 to 10,000 seaters. I hate big stadiums. Only some seats have great views they’re overpriced and it takes forever to get out the building and home through concert traffic. This is intimate but still going to reach hundreds of thousands of people

  54. spunkypoop January 10, 2011

    VIKI…… Do you homework babes!!! Queen JANET forever.

  55. john January 10, 2011

    EUROPE PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE JANET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  56. LUCAS L January 10, 2011

    Ιtaly janet!!!

  57. keith January 10, 2011

    Glad to see Janet & co. are playing the smaller venues. This is the right move for the times. Now, all I’ve got to do is figure out whether its Chicago, Atlanta or Los Angeles for me. Tax refund can’t come quick enough.

    And for those of you not familiar with these venues, you REALLY should get out more :-).

    Now, she just needs to add Europe…….

  58. Ch.. January 10, 2011

    I swear Janet got some delusional ass stans! Janet is performing in smaller venues because she can’t ill up arenas and stadiums anymore. If you believe that she’s performing in smaller venues just for the sake of doing so then you’re stupid. If Janet could fill up arenas and stadiums like she used she would be performing in them because it brings in more money.

  59. TheDimplePuppet January 10, 2011

    To the idiots: Janet Jackson released a full length studio album 3 years ago 3! Janet Jackson isn’t sign to a record label. Janet Jackson woke up one day and said I feel like touring and guess what she’s going on a global world tour. How many artist can do that? Janet Jackson is touring for HER fans so, idiots why in the hell are you on this form talking s***, when you know damn well you idiots are going to be the first ones swiping your credit cards to attend this flop’s show!!!

    Sincerely, Stan 4 A Flop

  60. Momo Luve January 11, 2011

    HOW THE F*** ARE YOU ALL SAYING JANET CAN’T SELL ARENAS ANYMORE? DIDN’T SHE SELL OUT SOME ARENAS IN 2008? DIDN’T SHE SELL OUT THE SUPERDOME? ANYWHO, JANET IS GOING TO SLAY. YOU HATERS ARE PRESSED BECAUSE YOUR FAV IS STILL AN OPENING ACT!

  61. sldkjfds January 11, 2011

    1. I’m a Janet fan so save the b*******

    2. Addressing the m***** looking f***** that said this blaphemsy: “Janet Jackson woke up one day and said I feel like touring and guess what she’s going on a global world tour. How many artist can do that? Janet Jackson is touring for HER fans so, idiots why in the hell are you on this form talking s***, when you know damn well you idiots are going to be the first ones swiping your credit cards to attend this flop’s show!!!”

    WHAT. A. JOKE.

    Janet Jackson is touring so she can show that she’s still relevant and has the capability to draw an audience. She’s most likely doing this so she can get a better recording deal with a label. But let’s face it she’s not on Madonna’s level as a touring act. She’s performing to 7K MAX on this tour. That’s not good for someone who’s held at such high regard as a overall Pop artist. So lay off the crack.

    3. Janet didn’t sell-out the Superdome. The Essence festival is a 3-day event held every year. Janet’s not the reason for any of the success. If anything MJB was the one that brought in the interest seeing as that audience is her type of crowd.

  62. AnthonyJCRM January 11, 2011

    Dumb f****, its called a up close & personal tour. Performing in a 20,000+ seat arena is not up close & personal at all if ofcourse ur at front row. Janet has toured arenas, domes and statuims all throughout her caeer, so she good! Anyway I can’i wait for NYC Radio City Music Hall..

  63. DUNKFAN January 11, 2011

    Yall really need to sit and think. Rhianna has #1s currently and she can barely sell out arenas and she is at the top of her career. Down sizing to further a career is a smart move. Janet will be here for another 30 more years. lol

  64. fake January 11, 2011

    This is just some usual “The Grape Juice” fake and fraudulent posting s***. Janet cannot possibly play such small venues and I have confirmed that ALL of these dates and places are fake! Please Grape Juice, stop it!

  65. teamjanet January 11, 2011

    Vegas baby, I’m there!

  66. George Liquor January 11, 2011

    Some of you people must not know talent,Janet is one of the all time greats,she should get more respect from some of you.

  67. TheDimplePuppet January 11, 2011

    Hi to my first Idiot. Happy New Year babes!

  68. Andrew January 11, 2011

    SAN FRANCISCO!
    LET’S DO THIS

  69. Insatiable January 12, 2011

    Janet – March 4th – Houston!! I will be in the house.

    Really folks, why try so hard to convince Janet stan/fans that she’s not worthy. It will not happen, just like we can’t convince you that Mariah etc, arent. Let us be we let you be! You just wasting your breathe, cause regardless of her reasons – whether it be cause she can, for her fans, or cause she need to show relevance – its happening b******! You don’t like it, go throw on your Mariah/Whitney/Madonna cd and leave us the f*** alone. Your hating, is not that serious. You won’t stop not one person from buying a ticket – so just say your one opinion, and leave – no need to fill up a whole damn comment page spewing hate for someone we love!!

    I love Janet, I will always support Janet and can’t wait to get her book on Feb 8th on my Kindle!!!

    Ya’ll grow up, please!

  70. Insatiable January 12, 2011

    Oh…& its like a group of 15 of us going!!! And I could care less if she was singing outside in front of a fountain on anywhere main street usa – I will be there. Cause I’m a loyal fan. I love Mariah, Whitney as well (I damn sure wouldn’t put Rihanna in a league of any “legend”) and I would support them every album, in all they do. Doesn’t mean I hate on any other artist cause I think the one I “stan” for is better than one you do.

    Like they say, if you don’t like what you hearing, turn the radio off or change the station. No need to stay and gripe – no one wants to hear you but you!

  71. Poplover2 January 14, 2011

    So then why was Janet I repeat JANET’S Performance the fastest selling ticket in Essence Music Fest history? Over 72,000 people came to see HER performance and it sold out the Louisiana Superdome with a first-ever waiting list for the Festival. So stop hating. She can sell out a Stadium when ever she wants apparently. She’s grown, she’ll be fine.
