I think you might be a bit obsessed!

Are you even coming to Glasto to see Janet mime her medley?

She mimes?

Devastated if true.

Been a lot of mentions about miming. Is this just spurious anti-Janet chat, or is she actually going to come to Glasto for a career relaunch and mime?

 

She's well known for lip syncing... jntsrb says it's absolutely necessary due to the energetic dance routines she does.

I pretty much only know Scream, and checking setlists shows she does not always play it

"Scream" is ranked by Billboard as her 25th biggest hit. It's time to hear some of 24 songs that were bigger hits than "Scream." ?

Janet Jackson's Metamorphosis had one of the 10 all-time biggest average grosses in an opening Vegas leg, currently sitting at No. 7 - between Celine Dion and Cher. Congratulations, Queen!

Queen didn't do a Vegas show did they? Actually I wouldn't be that surprised if they did. 

Congratulations Tom Jones though, he's gotta be up there in the Vegas charts eh?

Nobody really cares, Janet!

It is wow, actually, because it's based only on vinyl sales in her case. Other albums will probably chart higher, since that they're still selling great on Amazon UK. What a legend!

Physical is vinyl plus CD, no?

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
