More quotes by Janet Jackson
By age seven, I used to comb my hair for performances, just pull my hair up into a bun. Granted, it wasn't a very intricate hairstyle. Still, to be that responsible and disciplined at age seven is unusual.
Janet Jackson
That's what I think I am: a lot of fun - a lot of fun to be with.
Janet Jackson
My dad taught us that there's no greater distance than that between first and second place.
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
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 was a very quiet kid. A really sweet kid, I might add.
Janet Jackson
You can tell someone who doesn't have love in their life, then someone who is in love.
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
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
It's two people that are in love with one another. What's the issue?
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
You can't hold the record forever, and I know that. I'm not stupid.
Janet Jackson
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
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
People can have rhinoceros skin, but there's a point when something's going to hurt you.
Janet Jackson
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 need you like the blues needs the pain.
Janet Jackson
If people want to know the truth, why don't they just come to me and ask?
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
Self-expression is my goal, I want to be real with my feelings. Singing and dancing and all the joy that goes with performing come from my heart. If I can't feel it, I won't do it.
Janet Jackson
