The big day is finally here, its April 2nd and you know what that means! Why Did I Get Married Too? is in theaters everywhere. In spite of the fact that it opening against the monster 3-D epic “Clash Of The Titans” I am certain that this movie is going to have a huge opening.

April 2nd is almost upon us as promotions for “Why Did I Get Married Too” are at full tilt! Janet and Tyler have been everywhere in the past week and expect to see more of them as the weekend draws near.

I don’t know about you all but I have been counting the days until the release of this movie. Its going to be a draw for blood this weekend because boyfriend is dying to see “Clash Of The Titans” but I know where my money is going and its not to C.G.I.

Any-who….check out this recent interview with Janet and Tyler and make sure you have your ass in line this weekend to support my girl Janet!

Janet Jackson to Headline Essence Music Festival

Looks like Janet is on a mission this year. With movies, books and a host of other projects…the pop star is continuing to make her mark on music history.

This summer the youngest of the Jackson clan is scheduled to headline the ever growing Essence music festival which is slated to begin on opening the event on July 2nd. This will be Janet’s first-ever appearance at the annual event and mark the first full concert performance from the singer since her 2008 concert at Madison Square Garden.

I am so excited to see Janet making moves. She’s had a tough past few years but I feel the tide is turning and deservedly so.

Sneak Peek at Janet’s new video for her single “Nothing”

I am so excited for this video, movie single….you name it! Janet is doing her thing on this song and in the film “Why Did I Get Married Too”. The video should be airing any day now but in the interim…we will have to do with this behind the scenes peek at the clip! Jermaine Dupri is filming once again. I am not sure what to think about this break-up thing between Jermaine and Janet…. They seem a little too friendly to be broken up?

Janet taking a break from music; begins shooting new film!

Looks like my favorite Diva is going to be taking a hiatus from music for a little bit and while some fans may be disappointed…I am so totally stoked!

As much as it pains me to say this Janet’s sales have been in trouble and will probably never return to their former glory. The music industry as a whole is in trouble and I have a feeling that Janet will not be the only singer looking to make a jump to films.

Janet should focus on film and soundtracks at this point. I think that is killing two birds with one stone and helping to solidify her legacy as an actress. She’s already proven herself musically so its nice to see her exercising her acting chops.

For her next role, Janet will re-team with her good friend Tyler Perry as well as former label mate Mariah Carey and Whoopi Goldberg in the Tyler Perry movie adaptation of the book ‘For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf’. The new movie begins shooting in June.
