In 1977, at age ten, I was cast on the TV sitcom 'Good Times.' My character was Penny, an abused child in desperate need of love. I really didn't want to do the show. I didn't want to be away from my family.

I think it's great if a guy has a good sized package.
Janet Jackson
I don't see anything wrong with staying young looking as long as you can.
Janet Jackson
I can't believe people got so upset at the sight of a single breast! America is so parochial, I may just have to move to Europe where people are more mature about things like that!
Janet Jackson

I'm no expert. I have no psychic powers, and I sure don't possess any secret wisdom. I'm just Janet. I have strengths, weaknesses, fears, happiness, sadness. I experience joy and I experience pain. I'm highly emotional. I'm very vulnerable.
Janet Jackson
It has taken me most of my adult life to come to terms with who I am. To do that, I had to break free of attitudes that brought me down.
Janet Jackson
I need you like the blues needs the pain.
Janet Jackson
I wanted to be a jockey. I'm serious. First time I got on a horse, I loved it. That's what I wanted to be, but my dad asked me to start performing with my family.
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'm a true believer in prayer, a big believer in prayer.
Janet Jackson
I like myself a lot more than I used to. I had a very difficult time in my twenties especially. It was hard for me to look in the mirror and find something that I liked about myself.
Janet Jackson
Tie me up, tie me down, make me moan real loud.
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
The pain is necessary. Sometimes pain is the teacher we require, a hidden gift of healing and hope.
Janet Jackson
I've always been a tomboy. I've always liked to wear red, black, and white, and mostly pants.
Janet Jackson
You get yourself up for it somehow, and your endurance and the crowd gets you up, too.
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!
Janet Jackson
