This year, I was more vocal and thanked Janet for selling the Eagle Ring. She held out her hand and I placed the ring in her hand. She then spent a little while looking at it. Before we took the pic, I asked Janet if she could help me get it in the pic. She did a great job! 🖤🦅
If you’ve never been to a Janet Jackson concert, do yourself a favor and GO! I’ve been to 8 & have never regretted a moment. To think she was doing this at age 51 (& less than a year of giving birth)

Can we give
@JanetJackson
the credit for 🫶🏾? Some of you weren’t born when Janet started doing this. But, now, EVERYONE does it & it’s so popular that it has its own emoji. But, for the longest time, Janet was the only famous person doing it! She deservers credit🫶🏾
OMG! I just saw The Woman King & it was INCREDIBLE!
@violadavis
was *amazing* as well as all of the other actresses! See it! See it! See it! Great fighting scenes too. The last time I felt like crying at the end of a movie it was during Black Panther 👏🏾✊🏾
OMG! I left nothing… I stood up the whole

is slated to perform Saturday at 11:35pm CT (12:35am EST, 9:35pm PST, 5:35am London,UK) 🖤
Why,

@JanetJackson
’s Alright video sampled the When I Think of You video (the dudes in zoot suits on the bench)? 😲 Not only does she sample her own songs but she samples her own videos too 🤯 -
@JanetJacksonPod
One of the things I love most about Janet is that she’s *always* worn shirts that celebrate her heritage. Her clothing celebrated Black history 12 months out of the year ✊🏾
Feb 1, 2004 was an AMAZING day for me: 1) it was my birthday and 2) it was Super Bowl Sun. To make the day even better, my favorite artist,
@JanetJackson
, was scheduled to perform. That day is still one of my favorite memories!
She was 1 tour off. She meant The Velvet Rope Tour (1998-1999). When you’ve had as many tours as she’s had, it’s not hard to get them mixed up. Give her some grace. That was 25 years ago. Some of you weren’t born yet 😂
If you can, go see the

from a distance. Videos cannot do the production justice. The visuals were absolutely gorgeous! Congrats to all of those who had a part in creating them 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
@GHSDuldulao
@JanetJackson
Listen to your elders, kids… 😂🤣 It really IS something to have been alive and personally witness the height of Janet’s, Michael’s, Prince’s, & Madonna’s careers (not to mention, the birth & growth of rap). I’ve had an AMAZING life of music!
I know most of y’all on this app are young af and don’t know much. However, I was alive in the height of Janet’s career and she was doing things that other artist in the industry weren’t. She is the definition of a REAL performer!
WOW! That was fast! The
@JanetJackson
shirt came. I LOVE it! I can’t believe I don’t remember what shirt I actually got from that concert (or where it is now 😩). But, grateful to get this one!
Can I just give a huge THANK YOU to
@JanetJackson
for giving us fans the opportunity to meet her (via
#TogetherAgainTour
mng tix). I’ve had so much joy seeing fans (like me) who have supported you for decades but never got the chance to meet you until now. Thank You💛
It’s one of my favorite days in the year 🙌🏾 Today, we get to celebrate an amazing artist who is one of the greatest entertainers alive! Happy

Damn! Who would have thought Mrs Clift would have already had a rap name... “Swelleanore”! Classic moment, right there! I loved it! 😂👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Happy 76th birthday to Revolutionary Assata Shakur!
In 1979, she escaped from U.S prison later received asylum in Cuba.

That entire song is poignant. It’s brilliantly written. I’m surprised no one has tried to turn the story in the song into a play/movie yet.
Today is like any other day! For me, everyday is

I confused my 3-yr old Niece🤦🏽♀️ She saw my Eagle Ring (I hide it when she’s around). I showed her my throw & told her that was the same ring. She was amazed! She pointed to the throw & asked if I was

. I gave up and just told her Janet gave me the ring🤣
WOW! I completely forgot that I had this pic of my first few concerts (not including Rick James Superfreak Tour or the Purple Rain Tour). The

@JanetJackson
! Not only have you been an amazing inspiration for other artists but you’ve been a blessing to fans too! May God grant you all of the joy you can handle today 🎂🎁🎉
Janfam, today, for the first time, I put on the Janet jumpsuit that I won at the auction. As I’m putting it on, my 1st thought was “I bet Janet farted in this” because I have the maturity of a 10-yr old boy 🤦🏽♀️

Celebrating myself & my birthday today! At 48, I’m so grateful to experience everything I have & pray that I have much more ahead of me 🎁😳🎂 Yep! I looked something in between an alien & Benjamin Button 😂
WooHooo! F*ck yeah! I can’t believe I paid so much for it (there goes my vacation, Christmas, and birthday for the next 2 years) BUT, I got the eagle ring! I’m in tears 😭😭😭😭 It’s the ONE thing I really wanted! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🦅
In honor of

, here’s a few clips from her SOTW in DC (Nov 16, 2017). Sorry for the not great camerawork. I’m short & someone’s much taller cranium always gets in my way 😂 Shout out to
@MissyElliott
for being on 1 of my favorite JJ tracks!❤️
Just re-watched Janet’s show. The set list & choreography were AMAZING (even better now that I’m fully awake 😂). It always make me happy to see how she steps it up for Essence 🖤
Work has been crazy today! But I couldn’t let the day go by without wishing “Unbreakable” a happy 8th birthday! This has been my favorite album since May 14, 2021 - the day I won the Eagle Ring 😂 Kidding! It is definitely a wonderful album tho! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Happy anniversary to Janet Jackson's 11th studio album "Unbreakable". This work of art showcased the reinvention of Janet, once again proving her longevity. She will forever be cemented as Music Royalty. Stream It ❤️🔥

It still amazes me how Apple’s photo app can take related pics & make a slideshow out of them. It did exactly that with some of my old Janet concert pics. Weird! It even labeled the slideshow Janet Jackson, so the app recognizes her face & who she is
#janfam
When I met Denz, I asked him about the crotch in these shorts. When they’re dancing, it looks like they have a hole but he said it’s elastic so that they have more movement in them. It’s like me to ask about somebody’s crotch out of the gate 🤦🏽♀️

Yesterday, I had a great time at the Smithsonian’s African-American Museum. My favorite part is the top floor with all of the various musicians like

and
@IAMQUEENLATIFAH
. There wasn’t enough Janet. Maybe, I should loan the Eagle Ring?
Update on Bristow’s
#TogetherAgainTour
concert: Nothing out of the ordinary happened 🤣 We all knew the words, nobody spilled popcorn, & most importantly nobody gave her a contact high! We know how to act! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank You so much
@JanetJackson
for allowing fans to share a part of your life. I never thought I’d own something of yours, but I am truly grateful for your generosity. And, thank you
@JuliensAuctions
for making the experience so enjoyable 🖤
I got my VIP merch… just in time for Christmas! LiveNation is *horrible*… calling me a liar when I told them I never received any items at the concert 🤬 Thanks to Janet & her team for making it right 🖤
(Fan) Tour withdrawal is real (I’m guessing Janet is enjoying the tour being over). But, this is definitely my favorite part of the show…
#TogetherAgainTour
I still remember when fans were talking 💩 before the **first** show 😂🤣😂🤣 I had zero doubts… I’ve been to 11 shows, in every era, and Janet has NEVER put on a bad show… and she never will 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

She also butt bumped Denz before the butt grab. It sounds like she said “You want this!” about her 🍑 It’s so great to see her playful and having fun! I ❤️ it! 🫶🏽
