And He’ll Say it Again!
Jermaine Dupri, Janet Jackson’s boyfriend and rumored father of her child, went to his blog once again to destroy rumors that Janet was pregnant. These two aren’t new to these types of rumors but just recently, people have been barraging them with questions and looking for Janet’s bump after she cancelled her tour, which was then automatically assumed was because she was pregnant. Jermaine then gave an interview to US in which he stated in no uncertain terms that Janet was not pregnant. So it was confusing when just on the heels of that interview, Life & Style ran a cover story which claimed that Janet was pregnant and was telling everyone except the press. From US,
“Dupri wrote: “To all the Janet fans, As you all know Janet is a very private person. The only reason you see her, as much as you do on my YouTube vlog, is because of me lol. But I hear ya’ll and your questions. So hear [sic] you have it… No she is not pregnant and yes we’re still together.”
“It baffles me how ya’ll let these blog and magazines control your lifes [sic]. That’s why I created global14.com so when ever hear s— about me you…can come right here and get the truth,” he added.
But that doesn’t mean Jackson, 42, and Dupri, 36, aren’t excited to start a family in the future.“I’d love to have children,” the singer told Us earlier. “It’s just up to Jermaine, what he wants to do.”
This is really a very disappointing story. First, it’s nice to know that Jermaine thinks that his and well, mostly Janet’s fans, can be so easily controlled by blogs and magazines. It’s also nice to see that he thinks the only reason Janet makes any headlines at all is because of him. I’m sorry, what does he even do again? Then it’s so disappointing to hear Janet talking about how when they have a family is all up to Jermaine and what he wants to do. I really thought she was stronger than allowing a man to dictate when things happen. Especially a man that sounds like such an ass.
It’s no secret that ever since she burst onto the music scene at some unfortunate time in the 1990s, Mariah Carey has done everything she could to copy Janet Jackson’s image. She wore the tight, black spandex and the big, hoop earrings and I’m sure that she would have spent much more time in choreography if she weren’t so *ahem* deficient in that area. Now Mariah seems to be taking cues from her idol once again as she plays coy with the media whether or not she’s pregnant. It began as a silly rumor and then turned more serious when she appeared on Ellen and refused to directly answer the question or take a sip of champagne. And now, a la Janet, Mariah has cancelled all of her upcoming tour dates. From Celebitchy,
Well, if you do, you may want to clue her boyfriend, Jermaine Dupri into that fact as he was just telling US a few short days ago that his girlfriend, Janet Jackson, is not, under any circumstances pregnant. That certainly seemed to be right on with Janet’s own declarations not that long ago that she doesn’t want children just yet. So, what’s with this Life & Style issue that is shouting to the world from its front page that she definitely is pregnant? The issue states on the front cover that she is preggers and that she’s scared about becoming a mom at 42. As well as the fact that it’s questionable whether or not a baby will stop the fighting between her and Jermaine. From Life & Style, 
Janet Jackson was recently in the news saying that it would be awhile before she and boyfriend, Jermaine Dupri had kids and that it was she that was holding things up. Well it seems that Jermaine may need to wait even longer before hearing the pitter-patter of little feet as he recently had a bit too much fun celebrating his 36th birthday. Meeting with a few close friends, including Ice-T and Busta Rhymes, in a funky New York nightclub, the group helped Jermaine ring in another year by downing champagne and tequila all night. And then…things took a turn for the worst. From Celebrity Dirty Laundry,
There were once rumors that Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri had secretly gotten married - that was last summer. Janet clearly squashed those in a February People interview when she said that she may be ‘allergic to marriage.’ But now, perhaps in an attempt to squash rumors before they start, she has opened up a bit about the possibility of kids with the record producer.
