More quotes by 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
Marvin Gaye is our John Lennon. The longer he's gone, the more young people appreciate his art. 'What's Going On' was a work of genius far ahead of it's time.
Janet Jackson
I like to have a lot of fun. I just don't see myself as being sexy. It's more sass - more attitude - than sex.
Janet Jackson
I would love to. A dream of mine is to produce films, as well as to produce content for television.
Janet Jackson
You get yourself up for it somehow, and your endurance and the crowd gets you up, too.
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
Add to the world's confusion, we teach our kids rules that we don't adhere to ourselves.
Janet Jackson
You can't worry about pleasing other people you have to please yourself.
Janet Jackson
My first crush was Barry Manilow. He performed on TV and I taped it. When no was around I'd kiss the screen.
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
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 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
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.
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
What I love about Gaga is her story, where she came from. Before she made it, before anyone knew who she was, I knew who she was and, to see her finally make it, I was so happy. If we were to work together that would be cool.
Janet Jackson
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.
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
You dont have to hold on to the pain, to hold on to the memory.
Janet Jackson
I like to read. Autobiographies.
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
