What Was Janet Jackson Thinking?
 Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

We love Janet Jackson long time...but what was she thinking on Good Morning America?  At first we thought maybe she had strep throat or laryngitis or something, because she was pulling the Britney Spears-hair-in-the-face-to-hide-lip-synching deal.  But then she would scream at the audience "Come on, let me hear you!"  So that ruled that out.

Janet performed a couple of songs, one of which she spent the first portion of sitting in a chair and snapping at her dancers and half-assing the words to the song.  Come on, girl!  It's your new album!  Get excited, get it together!  Don't disappoint!

With album reviews like The Washington Post's (calling her "Discipline" album "comparatively gritty sound [that] highlights the albums main weakness:  its star's weak, wispy voice") and The Boston Globe's ("Maybe there isn't anything more to her"), Janet needs to think fast and may need to show some real, live a capella to turn this around.  We so want to see her remain legendary like Madonna and Mariah Carey!

Hang in there, Janet!
