Janet Jackson 20 Y.O "Worldwide FLOP"
OK boys and girls its official... Janets album is a worldwide FLOP!! She failed to sell in major worldwide markets the UK, Germany, Australia and Ireland - 2 of which are the biggest markets in the world.(2/3 of the worlds music sales are from outside of the US!) Here are the chart positons for those countires in the first week as of October 1st 2006....

UK - # 63 (3K SOLD ) Ironically this is just one place higher than Justin Timberlakes reentry at #64 with his 2002 album Justified!!!!
AUSTRALIA - failed to chart in top 50 albums (no chart position given as sales less than 1000 copies)
IRELAND - failed to chart in top 100 no position given(sales of less than 750 copies)

Her furious promo blitz of the US and the Oprah effect have yet to prove their effectiveness...Will the US sales save her?? Currently she is set to be at number 2 behind ludacris with sales in the low 300k.... not the million her fans had predicted! POOR JANET!!

	Forced 40 year old T&A in our faces is not going to make people buy her shit. It's too bad Miss Janet couldn't get into a time machine and go back 20 years ago when she mattered. (Reply to this)

	haha. She looks like Michael too. I'm sick of seeing her almost naked body on Mag covers. It's gross and noone wants to see that. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	loveanddarkness 2006-10-02 04:04 pm UTC (link)
	I think LaToya looks a lot more like Michael looks now. Janet looks like the young Michael, when he was, you know, young, black and male. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	She should just realize that she's 40 YEARS OLD, nothing's wrong with that but when you're 40 you shouldn't dress like you're a twenty year old hoochie. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	IAWTC. And please put it on a billboards all over town because these people did NOT get the memo. p.s. special sign at Goldie Hawn's house - that crazy bitch is 60 and dresses in outfits that her daughter Kate ought to be wearing. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Just becuse you go around to all the talk shows singing the songs doesnt mean people like them, they still suck no matter how many times she performs them. (Reply to this)

	satokasusuki 2006-10-02 03:33 pm UTC (link)
	Oooh, ouch. The album is pretty poor (I think I only enjoyed one song? XD) but I still feel kind of bad for her. (Reply to this)

	Yeah, so do I. I remember I would like every single song she had out. I think it was after her first "best of" that it all went down hill. It was all about sex and not the music. (Reply to this) (Parent)
