What is up with Janet

[all4loveandbelieve]

"Michael would never do that."

How would you know. When I gain too much weight my brothers can be mean as well, believe me and I know that they love me to death.

Not only my sibling will tell me but my kids. Oh yes they can be pretty mean at times  :lol:  but they do it because they love us.

[all4loveandbelieve]

I don't believe that Michael would say something like that...
I'm just saying...Look at Debbie Rowe... :roll:

I agree with you he wasn't in love with Debbie, he wanted someone who can give him children, look it did not last did it? I think Michael likes sexy girls without any fat on them... By the way he accepts every type of people,and yes there should be more people like him  but if he had to chose a woman to marry it will be a sexy girl. I am sure he will not marry or be with a woman who weighs 200lbs and over.. just a thought.

I hope that Michael is not that vain and will marry who ever he falls in love with who treats him like a man is suppose to be treated.  If she happens not to be young and pretty and the perfect size zero, I would hope that would not be the determining factor.  I’ve known people who have married just the opposite from what was expected of them and are very happy and compatible.

i agree with you 100% it should be this way. appearances shouldn't count it is what you have inside of you, in your heart.. blessings.

I don't see anything wrong with this. My brother used to call me with different names which were not very nice at all. :lol: And my mom warns me when I gain a couple of weights. It's for my health also, not only for the way I look. I'm sure that Michael did it for the same purposes. Nothing bad or wrong in this.

[suspicious mind]

good grief  :roll:
my brother would put your head between his knees and jump up and down :lol:

[happythoughts]

Michael wanted you to look good, Janet! And now you do, it worked. That's all I gotta say. Michael knows what it takes to be a good performer and he obviously know a thing or two about being skinny. Janet's gorgeous and she partially has Michael to thank.

I guess I just take it that it is what it is. He could have said nothing and she could have gained 50 lbs. and been happy or not. There's possible more blame on their parents trying to make them superstars and successful, and MJ is saying he wanted her to be successful, so he's pressuring just like their dad Joe. Joe could have given up on the Jackson5 dream, and just worked with cranes, and they all could have been happy and poor, and no one would have ever heard of them. MJ was a very typical outspoken brother who like most men also happened to like legs and butts of women. No problem, and if he had said nothing, Janet would/could have blamed it on some other factor like mean friends or being big-boned. Garnering sympathy from fans with a victim story is always advantagous.

Personally when I saw one interview of Janet talking about this, my opinion was that she was overly sensitive, and perhaps the media encouraged her to put a little blame on MJ, because it's always open season on tearing him down.

My brothers sometimes put me down, and my sons their sister occasionally. That's family life, and there's love between us all in the end.

According to Lisa, Michael made comments about her weight too.  It seems to me that Michael can be rather vain when it comes to appearance, not only his own (which is probably due at least in part to his own physical insecurities) but other people's as well.  

I've read about him making fun of Janet's weight before; in fact, I think he has even addressed it himself.  Quite frankly, I think it's downright rude to make fun of anyone, including family members.  Being related to someone shouldn't be a free pass to make fun of them.  And considering how often Joe and other family members made fun of Michael's nose, you would think that he would have been more sensitive towards Janet's feelings.  I have a lot of respect for Janet, and I don't blame her one bit for calling Michael out on his rudeness towards her.  It obviously still bothers her or she wouldn't keep addressing it.

I love the honesty, and i agree.  we all love mike but right is right and wrong is wrong.  he's human like the rest of us, therefore he has faults too.

I also agree...sometimes it plays more on your mind when a family member says it rather than someone you don't really know.

[MJonmind]

I don't think you can have it both ways. We love MJ's love for women, his love for his family especially Janet and his mother who also has extra lbs., and his vanity (in the amount that gave him the sex appeal and confidence on stage and his endearing bold candor in his lyrics and other speaking). It all goes together as a package deal. TAKE it out and I'm not sure we'd like what we saw as much. His is an irresistable charisma of peacock, lion and lamb. I think MJ and Janet will just have to work out their relationship issues, and I feel they love each other dearly.

Well, it's true what Janet said,I read in his "Moonwalk" that he would make some remarks about her fat butt and show some pictures of cute top models with perfect bodies, so what??? When i used to gain weight my brother would do just the same thing , i don't konw why she has brought up that subject now? :roll:

I agree, it's rude to make fun about her weight. I do believe he did it, hoping she would lose some weight and thinking that it would be better for her because of her insecurity. But most of the time it has an opposite effect. Nevertheless it was wrong of him but in a strange kind of way it also makes me happy. To know he's not that perfect, but sometime act like a jerk is some kind of a relieve.

Janet has talked about this before, and she addresses it in her new book too (which discusses her lifelong weight issues).  I think that is why it has been brought up again.
