Janet Jackson is very fit

It's probably not a good sign when people look at you and think you're preparing for a movie role by wearing a fat suit. It's also probably not a good sign when you're Janet Jackson and weigh over 500 lbs. Maybe if she was a car, but a human being? That's just crazy.
One more after the jump.

There is one great thing about women gaining weight. Bigger Boobs!!

She's not getting fat, she's hiding Michael and his love-monkey in her ass, keeping them out of site until those whacky people on the left coast embrace NAMBLA and Michael will become thier great leader.

You know what happens to people like Janet Jackson when they don't get fed on time? I'll tell you: They go berserk and kill at least 400 people and then vow to take their revenge upon mankind to their last dying breath. Here's how we can avert that awful future AND do the entire world a favor.
Pour a honey-glaze barbecue sauce over Kevin Federline and tell him he's invited to Janet's house to discuss his bitchin' new record over a nice dinner. Janet's galaxy-destroying appetite is sated for another few hours and Britney Spears will return to masturbating in music videos instead of recklessly passing on her extra chromosome DNA to another generation of brain-dead hicks.

It's really disgusting the way men run down women just because the women happen to have become gigantic tubs of lard.

So that's what happened to the Rhythm Nation, she et em.

Janet is obviously pushing a size 12 or 14. This puts her dangerously close to the average size of most women.
This is totally unacceptable.

yeah and the "average" woman is a fat cow.

shes not 7 feet tall there is no reason for her to be a size 12-14

She smokin' the herb. Late night munchies and movies will do that to you. Look at the way her form shows as she walks. Janet waddles.
As I said previously:
http://www.thesuperficial.com/archives/2006/01/16/janet_jackson_isuhmwell_1.html - life isn't that bad to let yourself go. I think she is stressed out because her whole family has issues. Damaged Goods as my friend (Darryl - C.G.A. 4 yrs) says about women in these circumstances.
Maybe Janet and Whitney will release an album together. "Down and Out in Beverlly Hills".

Hard to believe this is the same person who was so fit she was looking so good in that video a while back. It was a ballad or something and she was just cut up.
Now she looks like she's out of the biz permanently.
In Europe women don't explode like here in America. Even after children they take care of themselves.
13. Posted by ESQ on January 20, 2006 3:44 PM
Perhaps she attributes her massive weight gain through the stress she has endured by the FCC getting on her (and everyone else in TV and radio) about showing her boobs on national television. Or perhaps is due to her brother's legal battles because he likes to play with little boys?
Best yet, she ate the mother and her children that made these accusations about her brother that caused him to hide in Bahrain.

Maybe she's preparing for a role in Nutty Professor III: The Secret Life of Cletus Klump.

If you date Jermaine Dupree long enough, and I have, you'll notice that the way he sees you is a bit skewed, since his eyes happen to be placed much in the way most prey animals' are positioned: one on each side of his head. Like a fish, or an ostrich, or Britney Spears. This physical deformity obviously prevents one from seeing what they really have in front of them. Kevin Federline figured this out and continues to resemble my neighbor from Houston named Cal who used to run around barefoot, his feet stained in the same places from car grease for days, while his greasy rat-tail whipped with the wind. Britney can't tell! And thus, Jermaine can't really tell that Janet has gained 400 pounds either, cause he only sees about half of her. I need to get myself a guy like that, so I can walk around in ugly clothes, not so I can get fat, cause I already look like Gisele so it would never happen

wasn't she caught sunbathing naked back in Nov??? can you put on that much weight in such little time???
17. Posted by SoCalGal420 on January 20, 2006 4:15 PM
To Sheva: I grew up in Europe (West Germany specifically)and the difference is that the overall way of life is different; i.e. EVERYONE walks everywhere, whereas here so much of who you are as a person is wrapped up in what vehicle you drive. Secondly, Janet is a chronic yo-yo dieter/psycho exerciser. Watch old videos and look at her family genetics: she is the only one (other than her twin crackhead siblings Michael & LaToya; notice how they ALL have the same plastic surgery? Tits, nose, cheeks, etc.) who is that thin, sometimes. She only loses the weight when there's some sort of "comeback" invloved, like we'll probably see in March or May or whenever the fuck she graces us with more mediocre pop. Naturally NO WOMAN IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE A 6-PACK! There's a reason we are genetically "rounder". Granted I'm Black with DD tits and a nice thick ass so I guess the rules for white broads are different. And no I'm not as fat as Janet is in this pic, for all the assholes out there wondering.

Well, it's more than just that, as people walk everywhere in NYC and there are plenty more fatties here than in Paris.
It's more an attitude toward food, which is more of a thing to be enjoyed and less of a thiong to obsess on and use to fill huge gaps in our lives. Sadly, that's the way it is here. We eat vast portions feeling guilty all the time, shovelling it in without even tasting it. French women eat whatever they want, slowly enjoying it without guilt, eating just enough to get an enjoyable flavor -- a quarter of a piece of that choco cake. The American woman gobbles down two huge pieces of the cake, so fast she can't taste it, then feels guilty for having done so.

I'm confused. How the hell did she get this fat so quickly? All that $$$ she spent on a boob job, liposuction, tummy tuck & butt lift are just wasted now.
What the hell is going on in Hollywood? Janet & Britney are total fat asses now and Lindsay & Nicole are toothpicks.

Queen Latifah has talent and is REAL...
29. Posted by Mady on January 20, 2006 6:12 PM
The reason she got fat so fast (along with Tobey maguire) is because she didnt keep up with the weight training.
People that have a lot of muscle(like the Miss Fitness USA women) that dont keep up with the weight training actually gain fat faster if they dont keep training.
Its a slight case of atrophy.
Their muscle ends up 3x the size in fat.
I work out with former Miss Fitness contestants, you'd be surprised at how fast they gain body mass.
30. Posted by Spacedog on January 20, 2006 6:39 PM
Maybe it's time JJ got another rib removed? Maybe two -- and then she can look like her spoonman brother and his ``special fans.''
31. Posted by Syndicate on January 20, 2006 7:41 PM
That isnt true at all. Just because you give up weight training; your body isnt going to convert everything to fat.... Read a biology book sometime. Now if you stop weight training and continue to eat as if you were; then and only then would you start gaining weight obviously since you arnt using that many calories a day.

Miss fitness usa with a ton of muscle? I dont at anytime remember then stepping onto the stage and eating the emcee for bad judging. I remeber cute high school girls dancing around using acrobatic routines not; who has a better lat spread.

Despite the best efforts of her trainers Janet refused to return to the whale tank, elluding all of thier nets and traps like the former dancer she is. Thankfully trainers were eventually able to convince her to eat a tranquilizer filled donut and Janet was quietly returned to her cage with only a scared public left behind to wonder what if...?

Janet Jackson is a disgusting, fat animal. Not sure how that little midget Jermaine Dupri justifies dating such a whale when all of his songs/videos featured women that weigh less than one of Janets thighs.

Here are a few pics from the 2006 contestants.
http://www.msfitness.com/galleries/2006/2006.html
Body fat% is also factored in to scoring.
So I guess your memory is a bit off. It takes twice the effort to maintain bodies like these than it does to create them.
And sorry, but dieting doesnt help your muscles from the atrophy problem so many of these former contestants face.
It would be extremely easy for someone like Janet to get fat so fast if she wasnt aware of the pitfalls of having high muscle mass.
Yet, considering she can pay for a trainer, I'd say she doesnt really have an excuse.
40. Posted by DannyJames on January 21, 2006 2:41 AM
seriosuly, what the fuck is wrong with her. Is she suicidal? She tried to kill herself by taking a bath with her toaster? Oh my word Janet, how grim.
41. Posted by lalaloulindy on January 21, 2006 3:50 AM
This seems to be an extremely superficial group of people. Who cares? So what, putting on weight is just putting on weight. Ask yourself this, Ladies and Gentlemen: How fit are you? Hmmm....I wonder if all the people downing Janet, have some weight to lose themselves? People who judge others and make nasty comments, really are truly insecure at heart.
42. Posted by Javaira on January 21, 2006 5:51 AM
I think Janet needs to tell Oprah that she wants her body back and the swap is over.

Yeah, and your nipples turn into nails if you don't breastfeed... That's just dumb. Muscle and fat are two different tissues and cannot turn into one another. Muscle atrophy is a diseases affecting the nerves that control muscles; people get it from being extremely inactive, but it has nothing to do with the size of your muscles.

hahah awww poor janet. shes always flucuated though. she would hibernate in between tours and go all chubster, then train like a mad woman for her new album/tour.
you could always tell she had a bit of an eating disorder. women arent supposed to have 8 packs. she probably screwed up her metabolism and is now stackin it on. Britney Syndrome!

i wouldnt go as far as to call her "a disgusting fat animal", this isnt Classic Star Jones here. In reality shes not even that big, its just cuz shes a celebrity that the tiniest bit of inperfection looks like awfulness. But that doesnt mean people cant make fun of her if they chose, this is America damnit.

Actually "Bloody Knows" I am pretty confident in myself, though I am not "perfect." But my good looks are not the issue here, Janet Jackson's putting on a shocking amount of weight in a matter of months is!
I did see some footage of her swimming up the River Thames into the heart of London the other day however, so perhaps she is trying to work some of her blubber off.
As for you "lalaloulindy" I am not sure why you are on this site if you are so concerned about celebrities feelings. My guess is you could probably stand to drop seven or eight pounds yourself from your comment. You should spend less time crying about comments on the internet and more time running on a treadmill.
58. Posted by AmberDextrose on January 23, 2006 7:28 AM
That can't have been JJ swimming up the Thames. That whale has since died so we'd know if it was her.
She's just waiting to flash her tits again, only THIS time they'll take up ALL the screen.
I think she looks kinda hot. At least its all gone to her tits and bum. That's womanly. I'd look like a snake that swallowed an egg if I put on that much poundage!
59. Posted by lalaloulindy on January 23, 2006 12:26 PM
Oh Jonnny...be good. We should run together or have plastic surgery along side one another, two-for-one special of course.

She packed it on for a movie role. The movie was to star George Clooney. She was to play a fat mother in the deep south. The deal fell through. She has been working out with a trainer. Plenty of actors have gained weight for parts. Also to Feefs-not true. I have seen plenty of fat french women. Most french women look like ugly men anyhow so I'm not sure why they should worry about their figure.
64. Posted by harrylime7 on February 20, 2006 7:16 PM
Okay, I guess I'm the only real man here because when I see Janet wandering around with an ass that big and juicy, all I can think of is DAMN, would I like to EFFF her in the rump. Any man who disagrees with me is gay, and there is no argument. If you disagree, get ready to be officially outed as a man lover. WHICH IS OKAY! Its just that a lot of closeted man lovers are so uncomfortable with the fact that they dig little boys, that they start downing women for being womanly, I'm not down with man-lovers downing women for being women. I love me some real size ladies.
65. Posted by beyond8 on April 6, 2006 2:34 PM
Ok, maybe I'm missing the whole let's trash Janet Jackson. She's HUMAN like everyone else and she looks like the AVERAGE woman in America. I am sorry but she is actually smaller than most American women. I'm sure some of you guys would kill for her body on a bad day. She actually gained weight for a movie and now it's off. She is also a yo/yoer. So what! She'll be back and fit in time for a killer tour and slick videos. Poor Janet, that's what you get for being human and hated on by so many returns hiding behind a key board. I don't think that she is staying awake at night, worrying about this silly blog.

Bikini Inspector,
I'm not sure I like the implications of your comment.
Are you trying to say only "sistahs" are fat? There are some pretty huge "non-sistahs" out there.
Having the body of a 12 year old and looking like a starving drug addict does not make a woman feminine and fit.
"Bruthas" want women not little girls and are not intimidated by curves. They're strong and know how to handle it.
68. Posted by myb on May 4, 2006 10:19 PM

Instead of condeming her for being human why don't you give the sista some credit...did you notice in the pix that she is carrying hand weights...not a cheeseburger.
