I'm happy with the people that I have around me. And they've been friends of mine since I was young, for a very long time.

There are artists, true performers that have come before me who have been a big inspiration to me. I hope I do the same for others.
Janet Jackson

You have to feel good about yourself.
Janet Jackson

I had a pretty sexual imagination for a kid.
Janet Jackson

I believe in a higher power. I believe in inspiration.

I was out once and had wine and I got sick to my stomach, and I vowed I would never drink again.

Damita Jo. Jo. That's my middle name. It's let in about the different characters that live within me. They say we have 200 characters that we portray with different people.

I was a very quiet kid. A really sweet kid, I might add.
Janet Jackson
-
I study once in a while. But my parents never pushed us into anything. Until we were 18, my mother would make us go with her to Kingdom Hall, and when we turned of age, she let us choose what we wanted to.

I feel that when two people are married - not that you have to totally give up your career - you have to spend time with one another, get to know each other more, just share things with each other.
Janet Jackson
-
I would love to. A dream of mine is to produce films, as well as to produce content for television.
Janet Jackson

No word is absolutely wrong or dirty or insulting. It all depends upon context and intention.
Janet Jackson
-
I just want you inside, baby, we don't need to talk about promises.

You dont have to hold on to the pain, to hold on to the memory.
Janet Jackson
-
Recording is more autobiographical than acting. It's me - either how I'm feeling then or once felt at some point in my life. It's all me.
Janet Jackson
-
That's what I think I am: a lot of fun - a lot of fun to be with.
Janet Jackson
-
A lot of my friends they call me 'the therapist'. They come to me looking for advice. I must be doing something right because they keep coming back. But I'm not very good at kind of looking into my own world and trying to pick apart what is really wrong and fix those things. I like to kind of shy away from certain issues and turn away.
Janet Jackson
-
I can express gratitude for the simple act of being able to breathe in and breathe out. I can move away from darkness and depression to light and hope. I can be happy with who I am, not what I should be, or what I might have been, or what someone tells me I must be. I am me, the true me; you are you, the true you - and that's good. That's beautiful. That's enough.

MTV was completely unaware of it. It was not my intention that it go as far as it did. I apologize to anyone offended - including the audience, MTV, CBS and the NFL.
Janet Jackson
-
I like to have a lot of fun. I just don't see myself as being sexy. It's more sass - more attitude - than sex.
Janet Jackson
-
I have a very strong family.
Janet Jackson
-
I have a pretty bad temper. But you have to really push me to see it. But everybody has their things.
Janet Jackson
-
It's two people that are in love with one another. What's the issue?
Janet Jackson
-
People tend to put entertainers on pedestals. We're human beings, just like you. You may see us smiling, and whether we have money or not, we still have bills to pay, we still have our stresses. I think a lot of people want to focus on others' shortcomings to make themselves feel better. And it's a very sad thing.
