IF this story is true, i am going to boycott virgin products

generally, what does the size of one's body have to do with the sound of one's voice? MOST women are NOT a size two NOR SHOULD THEY BE

again, i say IF this story is true, what ms jackson's body looks like is NO concern to ANYONE but ms jackson

i don't own any janet jackson but believe me it has NOTHING to do with how she looks! upon confirming this story, no more virgin cd s for me (and it will be tough because massive attack records on that label)

from todays ny post page six

February 13, 2006 -- WE'RE all about to see a lot less of Janet Jackson - literally. The pop queen bulked up over the last year but has been given her marching orders by her label, Virgin, to lose the weight by September - or it won't release her album. "Janet had a really bad year," our spy said. "After the incident at the Super Bowl [two years ago], it just went downhill. Her album 'Damita Jo' was a flop. Then her brother Michael had the child-molestation trial - it just wasn't good to her." Jackson found solace in food and, as recent photos will attest, has packed on the pounds. "This new album is supposed to be pretty good, but Virgin feels it can't market it without Janet being back in fighting form, so they have hired her a personal trainer and put her on a diet. She has to lose at least 20 pounds." But a pal said: "Janet always gains weight when she's not working - and always loses it in time to promote her albums. Janet always takes care of it when it matters." Reps for Virgin and Jackson didn't return calls.
