Just three weeks remain until Janet Jackson‘s wildly anticipated ‘Unbreakable World Tour’ kicks off.
And while details surrounding the global trek have been guarded with potent precision, tea has begun to trickle out.
The latest surrounds the ‘No Sleeep’ singer’s new partnership with fashion force Giuseppe Zanotti.
Full story below…
WWD revealed that 49-year-old Jackson has paired up with shoe designer Giuseppe – who has designed sneakers done in multiple color ways for the diva to don onstage.
Speaking on the collaboration, Zanotti, said:
“Janet is a close friend of mine — we have been close for a long time and I have always felt the greatest affection for her. She has always been a very loyal supporter of the brand and product. She talked to me about her upcoming Unbreakable World Tour when we were together in Milan earlier this year, [and] she asked me to consider making her a special shoe for the tour. Of course, I was…very flattered and I immediately started to sketch some ideas out for her.
Janet will be dancing a lot on stage as well as singing, so I wanted her to be very comfortable and able to move around easily. The shoe has to be light but practical and provide support to her feet.”
Per the report, the shoe, a high-top sneaker based on one of the brand’s most popular existing styles, will be customised in two exclusive colour combinations and new detailing.
What’s more, Zanotti – who has worked with Beyonce, Rihanna, and Nicki Minaj – will also be dressing the tour’s dancers and backing singers too, a feat that will mark his first time handling an entire tour.
He said:
“We are frequently asked to provide special shoes for celebrities on tour, [but] this is the first time we are the only luxury shoe company involved”.
Janet Jackson’s ‘Unbreakable World Tour’ kicks off August 31st in Vancouver.
Brandy Norwood is coming to slay!
Slay what? A Subway station near you?
Brandy is selling out Broadway whilst Cierror can barely max out a McDonald’s play place. Please tread lightly 🙂
What a boring era.
You’re such a hater to make it your business to always comment under Janet post please get a life….
Im a hater for telling the truth? THIS IS A BORING ASS COMEBACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TRANET NEEDS TO COME HARDER..
The irony at a Ciara fan calling anyone a t*****.
@Molly oh and where is Ciara?…. oh I forgot promoting Russell Wilson or shall I say Russell’s promoting her while she should be working on her staggering promo for that shitless album Jackie while at the same time getting herself and her beau caught in the middle of some baby daddy drama with Future.
maybe c error can open for Janet and bring her water to the stage
How are you going to comment, when Ciara’s whole career has been a horrible imitation of Jane’t successful career which I might add. Ciara couldn’t even sell out standing room only venues, girl get a clue!
Molly… Gurl… Don’t press play on yo bull shyyt today… Stand down
She is doing just fine! Don’t worry about her comeback you’re not a fan so it shouldn’t concern you!
Get money Queen
Haters stay worried about the Queen more than their own faves kii
The irony.
I love you sis
So the album is going to be released after the tour ends or while touring?…I honestly think is a bad idea to not promote the album, she should at least try, you never know.
It’s just going 2 flop like her career has post 01 anyway.
Album will be released in late september and he will promote the album. For instance, we already know she’s closing iHeartMusic festival. I’m sure it’s only one out of many things she will do.
Yessss!!!!
Exciting times. Janet’s discography is epic!!!!
This old h** just needs to hang it up no one cares any more
Gwarl… You Stan for a commentator on a blog… Your life has ended much too soon… #thirstylivesmatter
Hey @Regina that’s probably @Molly stanning for herself you know she gets relentlessly dragged on the daily basis in each post she’s on.
@Shady81 heeeey boo! And That is even more pathetic of shim.. So sad
Cimanra couldn’t even keep up with QUEENets choreography so if I was a Babymamara stan I would keep quiet
No Sleeep is N°1 on Urban AC radios, SLAY.
As I stated the tour is the main focus over the album.
Congrats are in order for Ms.Janet, number 1 on the adult r&b billboard charts. You go girl. I don’t care what people say, Janet you did your thing and keep doing your thing.
I can’t wait to see Janet’s look for this tour, I actually like the sneakers! Btw, congrats to JJ on her #1 Adult R&B single. It’s unexpected, but appreciated. Bring on #Unbreakable & #ConversationsInACafe!
I really like the design of the shoe can’t wait to see the full ensemble costume, hair, set the works do your thang Miss Janet and I’m so happy to see her go to #1 on R&B Adult Contemporary charts.
She’s in a good place. I’m happy for her and hope this goes well.
Whitney Vs Mariah (A Grudge Match)
Years had passed since the fights between Mariah
Carey and Toni Braxton; fights instigated by Ms.
Whitney Houston. * Both Mariah and Toni swore
they would repay Whitney for her trickery. At one
time Whitney even pretended to kiss and make up
with Mariah and to be her friend but when Mariah
was having her most resent troubles she turned on
her. When Mariah’s label offered her money not to
record Whitney caught wind that her label was
recruiting the golden diva and Whitney made
moves to block her coming. Toni told Mariah not
to believe the hype and she was right Whitney was
a `snake in the grass’ just like her cousin Dionne.
But now the time for retribution had finally come.
Deacon arranged a mystery battle with Whitney for
the benefit; normally Whitney would not agree to
such a match but cocaine makes people think they
are the “baddest” things on the planet. There was
to be a mystery opponent and a mystery referee;
Mariah and Toni. It was almost pathetic. Whitney
was in such poor shape physically but Mariah was
just as messed up emotionally, G-Man thought
that it should not happen but it was Deacon’s call.
Deacon had the “serious hots” for Toni and would
do anything to please the sultry vixen. Toni
required some interesting stipulations. She asked
that Deacon build a replica of the bathroom where
the original conflict took place. G-Man told him if
he wanted to do that for her he would have to pay
out of his own pocket; Deacon had no problem it
was a request from “T-Brax”.
The time came and all parties had agreed on every
aspect of the match and signed on the dotted line.
Whitney was loud bragging and saying who much
fun it would be to “whoop a b%tc#’s @$$ Just like
in Jr. High school days in the bathroom”. When
she saw Mariah and Toni she froze for a moment
then resumed her ranting and raving; “Oh what? I
gotta fight these two talentless b%c#es?” “Is that
the m()%#@F…()@% in’ mystery?” “Baby I aint
eeeven worried cause God is on my side… No
problem, no problem at all… I will whoop both
they lil @$$es” “Bobbie show me some gangsta’
S#i% I can put them on they @$$”
Toni was wearing a designer referee’s French cut
singlette with a low cut neckline to her sensuous
navel and a split down the back to the breach of
her peerless posterior. She entered the replica first
while subtly beckoning both Mariah and Whitney
in. Whitney was the first to strut in, wearing long
black spandex pants, a black sports bra and a pair
of cross trainers. Toni stood in front of the stalls in
the middle of the room, Whitney went the length of
the room turned and leaned against the wall
awaiting her opponent. Mariah entered wearing a
white sports bra teaming with her bountiful
mammary overshadowing Whitney’s observable
insufficiency. Mariah was also wearing a white
loincloth from which her lengthy legs sprouted and
from which the Africaness of her hearty golden
rump was on display.
Toni spoke, ” Here are the rules ladies, ain’t none,
when I think you had enough of an @$$ whoopin’ I
will stop it.” “Well let’s get it on”
The two sopranos screamed a kind of battle cry
and tore into one another. Clawing, kicking,
punching, biting, snatching hair; both wailing in
pain and in rage. Round and round they danced
the dance of battle, banging each other’s bodies
from wall to stall door. As scrawny as Whitney now
is you would think she had no fight in her; but
never underestimate the power of a crack head.
Mariah was undaunted by Whitney’s drug addict
strength for hers was the power of pain and
suffering which she was more than happy to
unleash on her enemy.
As they clenched into a double headlock they fell
into an open stall struggling arm and leg; both
seeking a superior hold or position. Mariah started
ramming Whitney’s head into the walls of the stall
and stomping on her feet. Whitney responded by
taking advantage of their closeness and biting the
golden Amazon on the forehead; Mariah growled in
pain but did not cease her assault against her foe.
Mariah slipped her hand into Whitney’s pants
locking a Kama Sutra claw; Whitney ceased her
biting and screamed bloody murder. Mariah took
her elbow and drove it into Whitney’s neck
converting her screams into gagging. Whitney’s
eyes began to wall, foam oozed from her mouth,
veins popping in her neck, arms tensed and what
was left of her thighs and b*** started to tremble.
As if that was not enough Mariah began to head
b*** Whitney in the face.
Toni by this time was ecstatic jumping up and
down, clapping and shouting “Kill the B%t#h
Mariah Kill the Bit#h ” Mariah suddenly realized
that she was killing Whitney and released her
choke but not the claw; as Whitney cough, gagged
and spat to regain her breath. “Who is the Grand
Diva? Who’s the Diva B%t#h?” Mariah demanded
as she twisted Whitney’s womanhood inside out;
Bi%c# I will snatch your pu$$% Out”
“You are Mariah… you are… now please let me go
” Whitney begged.
“Who else H**! Who else?”
“OK OK Toni too You’re both Diva’s” Whitney
confessed.
“And you?” Mariah solicited as she ripped at
Bobby’s favorite spot.
“I.. I ain’t S*** OK? Now please let me go ” She
pleaded. Mariah released her gruesome hold
Whitney slumped to the floor; then Mariah grabbed
Whitney’s head and plunged it into the toilet and
began to flush and dunk as Toni laughed
hysterically.
Yaaas b****** I’m back unstable than before!!!!!!!
Molly Molly Molly Molly

“ADULT R&B #1”?????? ROFLMAO!!! What kind of JOKE is that? The REAK tea is that Tranet’s FLOP SLEEP ASSSSS is out of the Hot 100 AGAIN! Luvn it!!! Floooooooop!!! She only ever had a career due to Michael’s name & fame. She never had any talent herself. And now she cant use even use her bro to get acclaim anymore. Poor dat! LOL@Adult R&B. You sad sorry peons. Tranet’s wannabe comeback is a floooopp!!!
#1 is a #1 no matter where it falls. It’s like a ball game. This is very good because Janet has not promoted this song at all. Other artist do all this heavy promotion and still can’t get a #1 to fall no where on the charts. Keep hating and Janet is going to keep moving higher. This is her 35th #1 on this chart now what about your favorite???
Yessss, we will continue to celebrate!! Stay tuned there’s more to come from the Ultimate ICON. Plush
I LOVE this era. JANET is so smart. The tour is practically already sold-out. We’re talking about over 60 dates, including 55 shows in largest arenas. And that’s only beginning. “No Sleeep” is now a NUMBER ONE song and I don’t think Janet wanted to smash the pop charts, so I think we can call it a hit. It’s served its purpose well. Her next single will be the real lead single and I can’t wait to hear it. In Janet I trust.
The Adult R&B songs chart is about as (in)significant as the Dance/Club charts. But when you’re the fan of a has been, you have to take any “victory” where it can be found. Um, congrats?
Come through JANET!
Plz drop the next UPTEMPO SINGLE on the first day of your tour! I need a new rush to get me ready for October when you come to my city!
Was I not just talking about dancers need shoes and not heels yesterday in that Ciara post?
With all this hate against Janet, that just mean she is a triple threat!! Keep hating idiots. A win is a win I don’t care who you play. A #1 is a #1. All you haters are threatened by the Ultimate ICON otherwise you wouldn’t be hating, and that means Janet is doing the dam thing.
Janet Jackson is so overrated, she could never sing and her dancing isn’t that impressive. She will forever live in the shadow of her vastly more talented brother Michael Jackson.
