CRITIQUE: Not My Favorite Janet Jackson Cover!
They Are Trying to Shock and They Fail!

Janet’s everywhere promoting her new album and now she’s on the cover of the April issue of BlackBook. It hits newsstands March 25th.
BlackBook is trying to shock me, but it doesn’t. The line above Janet’s name says “To think of it, all she ever wanted to be was an actress and now this.” This line feels totally dated. Janet’s been singing for quite a while so what’s so shocking???
Below Janet’s name is another non-shocking line “Is No Kept Lady, Read Her Lips. And Heel!” So now Janet’s likes doing some weird stuff - huh?
The main photo of Janet is AWFUL. Her face looks angry and it’s not the way I want to see her. The outfit is over the top and another effort to shock. But it fails. Does this look remind you of her in the video “Scream” she did with brother Michael?
Overall, YAWN!
NOW THIS WAS A HOT JANET COVER!
