Quote

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.

That's what I think I am: a lot of fun - a lot of fun to be with.

All those songs reflect all the people that live within me.

People can have rhinoceros skin, but there's a point when something's going to hurt you.

Recording is more autobiographical than acting. It's me - either how I'm feeling then or once felt at some point in my life. It's all me.
Janet Jackson
Image
I feel that when two people are married - not that you have to totally give up your career - you have to spend time with one another, get to know each other more, just share things with each other.
Janet Jackson

I just want you inside, baby, we don't need to talk about promises.
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.

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.

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'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.

If people want to know the truth, why don't they just come to me and ask?
Janet Jackson
Image
As a child, I had to get up early for school or work. I'd get ready by myself. I'd set my alarm to wake me up very early in the morning, and be off to work, the family driver driving me every morning. I did it alone, my parents never coming in to wake me up.

The pain is necessary. Sometimes pain is the teacher we require, a hidden gift of healing and hope.
Janet Jackson

You can tell someone who doesn't have love in their life, then someone who is in love.

I have a pretty bad temper. But you have to really push me to see it. But everybody has their things.
Janet Jackson

You dont have to hold on to the pain, to hold on to the memory.

I was sheltered, and there's good and bad to that. The good was not getting into the drugs and the alcohol and the really sorry stuff, and the bad was finally coming out into the real world and trying to deal with it, which was hard for me.
Janet Jackson
Image
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.

I enjoy them both [singing and acting] a great deal. I have a passion for both. Maybe acting just a little bit more because it's more of a challenge for me, while music comes so easily.
