Step Up Versus Sales

August 27, 2019 Blind Gossip

[Blind Gossip] Although she has received many awards in the past, this female singer was not in attendance at the MTV VMAs.

However, that doesn’t mean she was unaware of what was going on that night!

Her and her fam had this huge fight about [Her Brother]. They said that she needed to step up and defend his legacy and the family name before the VMAs because people were trying to erase it. They were plenty mad and they wanted her to make a public announcement about how just plain wrong it is. She refused.

Why did she refuse to defend her family?

She’s on tour and she doesn’t want anything to hurt ticket sales.

Sounds like she is more concerned about staying in control of her own life and career!

    Janet still has earning power, why would she jeopardize her livelihood. It’s time for those Jackson’s to start working, there’s plenty of shop jobs available.

    She has to worry about herself, and not go getting into defending her deceased brother.

      I’m changing my answer, this might be Janet Jackson. At first, I thought it’s either Ariana or Taylor based on the related blind, but also based on the related blind I think this might really be Janet Jackson. Ive always thought that its obvious that MJ was secretly gay tho, like Bradley and Leo.

    Singer: Janet Jackson
    Her Brother: Michael Jackson, whose name was “conveniently” erased from the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award by everyone except for Missy Elliot

    Whether she did the right thing depends on whether she believes the allegations are true or not. If she does, she did the right thing by sticking to her beliefs. If she does not, then she is a money-hungry coward.
    (Personally, after viewing the counter evidence, I believe the allegations are BS)

    I don’t know whether or not she did the right thing, but she probably did. I didn’t watch, but I read that stars on the red carpet were being asked about MJ and his legacy…in relation to all the sex abuse allegations & the recent documentary. Also, the Michael Jackson Video Vangard Award was awarded, but MJ’S name was omitted.

    Janet Jackson

    She rode his coat tails to fame, dropped the last name when he was first disgraced, pretended to be close to him and his children when he died and it was cool to be a fan again for a while and now wants to distance herself again.

    She’s never been a very nice human being, regardless of what the truth about her brother is.

    • sweetnm80 says

      August 28, 2019 at 4:06 pm

      She rode his coattails? Really? She actually didn’t want to be associated with the Jackson name and wanted to do it all herself. She’s sold millions of albums and it still amazes me that people think her brother had anything to do with it. If that’s the case, all the Jackson’s would of had a successful career.

    Michael is the GOAT. He was cleared of any and all charges and accusations in a court of law.
    I can understand Janet’s hesitation, but in the end it’s ALL about family ties that bind. She coulda, woulda, shoulda spoke out for her brother, because he’s not here to defend himself. There wouldn’t be a famous Janet Jackson or Jackson 5 legacy without the King of Pop.

    • jj the great says

      August 29, 2019 at 7:57 am

      True but I think they’re talking not about the m*lestation claims and all that but specifically about the “Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award” being referred to without his name all night at this year’s VMA’s when it was given to Missy Elliott. I thought it was smart on MTV. Let it be about the winner rather than people arguing about the name.
      The funny thing about that award is that it wasn’t even supposed to be an award but MJ misunderstood. Look it up- hilarious.

    • jj the great says

      August 29, 2019 at 8:00 am

      *wasnt supposed to be an award originally. Basically they were CALLING him a Vanguard, and showing his videos in a montage was all it was gonna be like a tribute, but he started giving a speech and held this weird like…. stage prop?… of a dinky musical instrument & held it like an award. So they just ran with it. I saw it on a documentary where they interviewed like the past 20 years directors (or whatever) of the VMAs lol. Crazy.
