More quotes by Janet Jackson
I was a very quiet kid. A really sweet kid, I might add.
Janet Jackson
People do see me as sweet and innocent. Not to say that I am not those things. But I have other sides to me.
Janet Jackson
People tend to put entertainers on pedestals. We're human beings, just like you. You may see us smiling, and whether we have money or not, we still have bills to pay, we still have our stresses. I think a lot of people want to focus on others' shortcomings to make themselves feel better. And it's a very sad thing.
Janet Jackson
People can have rhinoceros skin, but there's a point when something's going to hurt you.
Janet Jackson
That's what I think I am: a lot of fun - a lot of fun to be with.
Janet Jackson
I wanted to be on my own and get out of the house. We were the kind of kids that - we - obeyed our parents. If they said no, you don't ask why.
Janet Jackson
I was two when we left Indiana, and I don't really remember it that well.
Janet Jackson
Damita Jo. Jo. That's my middle name. It's let in about the different characters that live within me. They say we have 200 characters that we portray with different people.
Janet Jackson
Tie me up, tie me down, make me moan real loud.
Janet Jackson
All those songs reflect all the people that live within me.
Janet Jackson
If people want to know the truth, why don't they just come to me and ask?
Janet Jackson
Touring is very grueling. It's very taxing on the body and living out of your suitcase, going from city to city, night after night. It's a tough job.
Janet Jackson
Bound together by our beliefs, we are like minded individuals, sharing a common vision, pushing toward a world rid of color lines.
Janet Jackson
Another side to me is this very sexual being. When I look back on my life, it's always been there. It's been there since I was 10 years old, having the imagination that I had.
Janet Jackson
I think it's great if a guy has a good sized package.
Janet Jackson
You can't hold the record forever, and I know that. I'm not stupid.
Janet Jackson
There are two things that really move me: music and acting. And I'm not talking about my music or watching myself as an actor, but listening to other people's music and watching other actors. There are so many different songs that have moved me. It all depends upon the mood that I'm in at that moment.
Janet Jackson
I have so much more confidence in myself now than I ever did before.
Janet Jackson
I'll meet a guy now, and the next thing I know they'll be sweating and their hands will be shaking. And I feel so bad - I don't even know what to say to them. Then there are other guys who come on too strong, and they're just all over you. The nice ones are the ones who are in-between - the ones who aren't scared and who aren't all over you.
Janet Jackson
I was raised with a ton of brothers and sisters where, obviously, the music running in and out of the house was very eclectic. So, I had a lot under my belt by the time I grew up. It all depends upon the mood that I'm in, the space that I'm in and what I'm feeling at that moment. But definitely!
