Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Janet Jackson — who you may remember for such accomplishments as wearing the world’s worst shoulder pads, being related to the weirdest weirdo in the weirdo-filled history of popular music and letting Justin Timberlake expose her saggy and ugly pierced breast to the largest television audience assembled on any given year — is coming to Phoenix.
Miss Jackson (because I’m nasty) brings her “Janet Jackson Number Ones, Up Close and Personal Tour” (also known as the “No One Can Sell Out Arenas Anymore, Especially If Their Last Hit Was During The Clinton Administration Tour) to Phoenix’s Comerica Theatre on Friday, April 8, 2011.
Tickets are on sale this Saturday, January 15th at 10 a.m. through Livenation.
What’s new about this tour, you ask?
“This tour will differ from her previous concert schedules in that she
will perform music exclusively from her chart-topping CD NUMBER ONES.
There will also be a focus on venues that will allow Janet to be up
close and personal in a much more intimate setting. In each selected
city JANET will offer something different to her performance so no show
will be the same. This tour is JANET more revealed, more intimate, and
more personal than ever before. Don’t look for special effects. Just
listen to and look at Janet, as you have never seen her before.”
Translation: We’re skimping on the pyro and lasers and Janet is too old to move like she used to, but she’ll sing every damned hit she has, don’t worry about that!
Here’s Janet at her peak.
