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!

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

I've always been a tomboy. I've always liked to wear red, black, and white, and mostly pants.

My parents were strict. They weren't as strict on me as they were with the others, but my mother didn't want us to get on anyone's nerves... Go to someone else's house and drive their parents crazy. Another thing was they didn't want us to get into a lot of things that a lot of kids - if they're not careful - can slip into.

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.

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.

A lot of my friends they call me 'the therapist'. They come to me looking for advice. I must be doing something right because they keep coming back. But I'm not very good at kind of looking into my own world and trying to pick apart what is really wrong and fix those things. I like to kind of shy away from certain issues and turn away.

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 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.

That's always - that's been another dream of mine, to do a Broadway play. An award winning Broadway play.

Add to the world's confusion, we teach our kids rules that we don't adhere to ourselves.
Janet Jackson

I can feel your body pressed against my body. When you start to poundin', love to feel you throbbin'.

To have someone to relate to and hopefully enjoy the music and get a positive message out of it, to make the best music that we possibly could, those were the goals.

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

I need you like the blues needs the pain.
Janet Jackson

To be given permission to be confused -- and remain confused -- for as long as it takes would have been a huge gift.
Janet Jackson
Image
I kinda see everyone as competition. I'm a very competitive person. But I think that's good. Competition is great. And as long as it's friendly and not a malicious thing, then I think it's cool.
Janet Jackson
Image
It's two people that are in love with one another. What's the issue?
