Janet Jackson is 48, Flourishing and Looking FOREVER FAHN

I saw a picture of Janet Jackson looking AMAZING and I just had to say something. Let your eyeballs get what they need with this image of Ms. Jackson (if you nasty) from a fashion show in Dubai from this weekend.

Janet Jackson

Yes. MA’AM.

I am INTO IT and her. YESSSSS!! Janet looking like old money, new money and unprinted money. Our girl went and got her a FAHN ASS Arab man, packed up her bags and said “I’ma gon find peace in the Middle East.” I ain’t mad at her AT ALL. Have you seen her boo (Wissam Al Mana)?? He is a tall drink of cold refreshing water. WHEW.

Out of all them Jacksons, Janet is the one who got away. She’s like “I’ma let yall have these shenanigans…” Werk, Mrs. Jackson-Al Mana. Life is looking great on you these days. I don’t even care that she’s still rocking the same slick back and phony pony since 1988. I don’t mind. The only thing she needs from the U.S. is her brown gel and she got the money to pay for them international shipping fees.

I bet she don’t miss nobody but her mama. You know Jermaine ain’t allowed to visit her because him and his hair paint might mess up her good furniture and melt unto her good Persian rugs and who got the tahm for THAT cleaning job? Surely not Janet. She got grapes to eat and none of them are for the wrath that’ll come with getting tar out of Egyptian silk. NOPE.

Folks wondering whether she’s going to make more music. FAH WUT?? Janet is sitting on half a billy ALL BY HERSELF. And her husband is a multi-billionaire. Make music? I wouldn’t even BREATHE on beat. I’d start a business called “Luxuriate for a Living.” And by “start a business” I mean I’d take naps. For weeks.

Because what Janet is looking like is someone who ain’t got no worries. That skin is TOGETHER and those brows have been snatched to perfection. YOU LOOK GOODT, J! Damita Jo outchea looking WELL-RESTED and WELL-DIC… *internet disconnects*

    Mr. Wissam Al Mana is relevant to my interests. Merowr! And Janet Jackson is 48? My skin didn’t look that good when I was 18. Sigh.

    “You know Jermaine ain’t allowed to visit her because him and his hair paint might mess up her good furniture and melt unto her good Persian rugs and who got the tahm for THAT cleaning job?”

    she is all covered up , i bet she is full Muslim now

    • November 4, 2014 at 6:30 pm

      She grew up Jehovah’s Witness so being covered up ain’t NEW, per se. Maybe she was just cold. Ain’t nothing wrong w/ her converting if she wanted to, doe.

  20. November 4, 2014 at 12:27 pm

    LAWD Ms. Jackson is getting her life, my life, your life, her brothers lives. She’s got it all! Skin just on every point on the graph. Eyebrows SNATCHED like my wallet. Jermaine can’t even come in the driveway. She ain’t got time to get them oil slicks out; that life is behind her. That Internet disconnection had me snort to the high heavens. So now coworkers looking at me like I’m crazy, but what they need to do is get their post its out and take notes on Janet, cuz I shoal nuff am!

  21. notconvincedgranny
    November 4, 2014 at 1:27 pm

    Jermaine tried to visit but was dismayed to discover his oil ain’t the right kind of oil to rub elbows over thayre. Or rather, his oil only works on elbows.

    • November 4, 2014 at 6:31 pm

      His oil ain’t the good kind. He ain’t welcome!

      November 4, 2014 at 2:04 pm

      Kim you have my sympathies. My daddy passed back in March and I can completely relate with coming to Luvvie’s page and finding a reason to smile. I know you have heard this, but time really does help. Allow yourself to heal in your own time. I wish you well. Take care.

        Kim and RaeJ, my sympathies to you both as well. My dad passed in February and Luvvie and Jimmy Fallon (he had just started on the Tonight Show when this happened) helped. I need to laugh. On that note, I snort laughed through this whole thing. My coworker in the cube next to me may have thought I was choking. LOL!!!

    • November 4, 2014 at 6:32 pm

      *HUGS* to you, Kim!!! Sending you love. And take off your coat and stay awhile. Get all the giggles you need!

    There is another picture with Janet and her makeup artist he posted on Instagram. She is dripping in diamonds. Life seems to be good, and I hope it stays that way. Just worried about him taking other wives cause he needs an heir.

      WHEWWW!!! One of them diamonds could prolly buy my entire wardrobe.

    Did you see a couple of bloggers trying to say that Janet was unrecognizable, they were trying to start a Zellwegger but got shut down quickly.

    You know how much money Wissam Al-Mana has? I read somewhere that (at the time) they were worth like…2.4 billion dollars. You see that .4? That’s Janet’s money.

    While I do love JJ…I just don’t love that nose. Did it get smaller? Or did her cheeks get bigger? I can’t figure it out, but either way, it just throws off her whole face. Meh.

    • huh?
      November 5, 2014 at 4:07 am

      Smh, she hasn’t done anything to her nose since the 80’s! That’s just contouring with makeup and her cheeks just got bigger.

    I missed this yesterday but, Luvvie you gives me life I promise. Ms. Jackson (if you nasty) looking like all them unprinted bills and worth even more. You young lady make this old lady smile every time I read your work. Ms. Jackson-Al whatever has arrived a survivor of all foolish Jacksonness uncle Jermaine need not buy a ticket to her new home with all the oilyness to melt on her Persian rugs.

    not to me. she looks fake. fat women who get plastic surgey can get the double chin fixed but everything else looks bloated. just my 2 cents.

  43. November 5, 2014 at 8:40 pm

    Well, well… I read and read, yet I hold my peace. I’m white, not American (I don’t even live in an Eng-speaking country!) and not even a speaker of English as a mother tongue. Yet there’s BUTs, or should I say #ihasbuts
    You’ve been writing about Jergreasesty and now the lady formerly known as Miss Jackson!
    She does look a bit bloated, tbh, though real fine for her age and past (AND lineage!). I personally find it problematic when (insert religion here) girls marry Muslims -too many cases down here in South America of husbands taking children away et al. But then again she’s rich and famous, and that may protect her. Let’s just hope they are deeply in love and respect each other.
    Anyway, I sort of gave up on most things Jackson when GOAT passed away. Too sad, too soon, too much to bear.
    I’d love to know what your readership may have to say on my issues, though.
    Just to add I have endeavoured to learn #ebonics101 to follow you and your crazy commenters. Love this blog!
    Big pinko-gray hug and keep it up. Hearty laughter when badly needed 🙂

    I just want you to know that every word you speak confirms the need for us to meet. Not like a “Hey girl!” we take a pic, you sign a quick graph and then we depart…I mean a “Hey girl! I’ve already ordered the first bottle of wine and we ’bout to talk straight up laugh the night away.” That kind of meet and greet.

    You light up my day!

    I loves me some Janet….but from that picture, Janet looks like she had a baby. I mean she was gone for seven years. She`s very secretive and I know they were trying at one point, because they have pics of she and Wissam on that yacht and Janet was holding two bottles of pills. Could those pills have been fertility pills. Possibly. My bells go off that she got pregnant…the child was born….she nurtured the baby for three years…decided to come back and tour, and found that touring was too grueling for her to be away and she cancelled the tour, saying she and her husband where starting their family. Now this is all speculation, because she does look like she had a child in that pic…and I know that she and Wissam had gone to Syria and visited the child orphanage so if she had her own child at 45-47, she may have adopted which is what took her off tour as well. And if in any case none of my speculation is true – she is pregnant with her own child by the grace of God. Whatever the case, I loves me some Janet always a big supporter of hers…and wishing her, Wissam, and the new baby, nothing but happiness, good health and many, many blessings
