In a interview with Billboard, superstar Janet Jackson shed light on her upcoming tour, her relationship with Def Jam, and her future plans. Check out excerpts below:
On Her 'Rockwitu' Tour
"It's two hours of dance" she says. "This show is all for the fans," Jackson told Billboard.com during the call. "They tell me what they'd like to hear, what they'd like to see, what they want. And this is what I'm trying to give them."
Her Relationship with Def Jam
I can't say if we'll be working with them in the future," Jackson said today (Sept. 4) during a conference call with reporters to promote her upcoming Rock Witchu Tour. "I don't know what the future holds between the two of us."
Her Future Plans
"We've been talking about something for TV, also a DVD," she confirmed, the latter of which may include "past stuff I've done that wasn't previously released," including possibly a Japanese TV performance that was filmed in High Definition during the Rhythm Nation 1814 Tour in 1990. "Just a nice package for the fans," Jackson explained. "They've been asking for it for so long, and they truly deserve it."Jackson said that she "definitely" intends to keep the Rock Witchu Tour going beyond its current Oct. 22 wrap in Dallas, with more U.S. dates and legs that are currently being discussed for Europe, Asia, Australia, Russia and "some parts of the Middle East. It hasn't been etched in stone. It's still being put together. People will hear about it in a little while."
Despite clearly not having the selling power she use to, mostly due to the lack of material IMO, there's no denying that Janet is a great performer so I can't wait to see what she brings to the table this time around.
