I'm like hoping and praying that she's just severely brain washed(still not an excuse but helps me cope 😂) or something because how could this be the same person who released the janet. album

Madonna did worse than going full maga? Like…okay shes an out of touch rich white woman, she has called her son the n word, her covid days were…something but she hasn't gone fully down the deep end like this.

 

That said all 3 have had some doubtful moments for sure.

Is this not enough ? lol, and then doubled down on it, refused to apologize and told her 'haters' to **** off when she was rightfully called out on it. And Janet should be dragged for this but to say she has gone 'full MAGA' is a reach.

Because I'm only just now noticing as I never really paid much attention to your posts before and you and I haven't interacted much together.

 

It's not annoying me but I was just confused as to why I keep seeing you in threads recently replacing the with "da" and dropping the T from Just and saying "Jus".

Sure Jan It was very dumb of Janet (and yes, very out of character for her) to repeat hearsay without fact checking but this first misstep in a 50 year career is not anywhere near as bad as some of the things your fave has done and said, be so for real

 

 

The way y'all Madonna stans are all over this thread is sending me Y'all were ready huh

 

A little reminder that your fave literally did the exact same thing that Janet just did when she platformed the "Obama is muslim" conspiracy theory peddled by Trump (and later claimed she was being ironic when it's pretty evident that she honestly believed it when watching the video)

 

 

And that's not even TOP 5 most problematic things she has done regarding race.

 

Do y'all really wanna go back to her racist comments about how black men are more violent than others, her calling her son a racial slur on instagram, the photographs of MLK and Mandela with wire all over their faces she used to promote her album and her "Dear haters, I have so much MORE for you to be mad at…Be patient!" answer to people who were rightfully offended

 

I believe that I have never been treated more disrespectfully as a woman than by the black men that I've dated. I've never actually said that to anybody, but it's true and I think it's a cultural thing. So many black men grow up without fathers, without strong male figures, without a sense of romance and seeing a man treat a woman with respect." – Madonna, Spin Magazine, 1998

 

Also :

 

In one of her Rolling Stone interviews, Madonna admitted that she did a whole photoshoot in blackface for her 2008 Hard Candy album, which was heavily inspired by r'n'b music and was produced by Pharrell Williams and Timbaland. She  wanted to call the album "Black Madonna".

"I did a photo shoot with Steven Klein for my last album cover, and I painted my face black, except for red lips and white eyes. It was a play on words. Have you ever heard of the Black Madonna? It has layers of meaning, and for a minute, I thought it would be a fun title for my record. Then I thought, 'Twenty-five percent of the world might get this, probably less. It's not worth it.' It happens all the time, because my references are usually off the Richter scale. That's why I have people like Guy [Oseary, her manager] in my life who look at me and go, 'No, you are not doing that.'", she said.

Madonna says her manager put a stop to the publication of the said photoshoot, complaining that people "wouldn't get" her blackface. Later on, the same photographer used the same concept (pictured above) for a photoshoot that caused controversy.

 

If Janet is "trash" and a "weirdo" for this comment then what should we call your fave?

 

And I'm sorry but it has to be said: The audacity of you, a white man writing in a mock blaccent wanting to hang Janet for this comment. This is SO unserious.

Whew, the way you came in and gathered them kinda knocked me back in my seat a bit.

 

And I wasn't even aware Madonna peddled the 'Obama is Muslim' nonsense. Not surprised, though.

This sounds like a line from got 2b real

Is Kamala black or not? this should be a straight up answer, why there's so much speculation about this and why it matters? someone enlight me please 

I think she's like a quarter black or something but she's marketing herself as if she's three quarters black or something.

 

She's part white as well but never talks about it.

[Iñakifan]

This is the type of conversation that sounds *insane* to anyone outside the US.

[Mitsouko]

The Little Jancellations want Madonna to be worse than her so bad nn. Miss Jackson is down a right-wing Qanon conspiracy theory rabbit hole as we speak, in addition to having handed over what remains of her career and what remains of her finances to her Trump & RFK loving deadbeat brother whose proud MAGA posts on social media she has liked consistently for years. The woman who made Rhythm Nation is no more. Hell, the woman who made Unbreakable is no more. She's isolated, broke (those auctions lmao), and under the influence of yet another abusive, manipulative man. Right now. Madonna was crass in 2012, lol and? Janet #alllivesmatter Jackson thinks deep state child sex trafficking is a billion dollar industry because Randy told her so She gone gone

[ttsmu]

I will never understand why Americans are so obsessed with the color of the skin or people race.

 

Why Kamala Harris being black or not matters? WTF

Her white ancestry is from generations ago and mainly from slave owners which every black American/Caribbean person has. We don't talk about it because why the **** would we?

 

She's half black half indian, and has never once marketed herself as being 3/4 black. She's barely mentioned race and intentionally ignores the question so she doesn't seem too "woke".

 

It's dumbasses like you and Trump who are making her race a big deal, not her. 

[NoAngelus]

Janet is a sister of a child abuser and a pedophile and has been defending him ever since. Why is anyone surprised?

[NoAngelus]

Prejudice (YES)

Ignorance (YES)

Bigotry (YES)

Illiteracy (YES)

Please don't make this thread into a cat fight between Madonna and Janet stans

 

 

I discovered her gorgeous music only 10-12 years ago thanks to the influence she had on Britney, I would have never thought she was MAGA. Just retire before it's too late

Not Janet being MAGA because of this  

 

Meanwhile Janet during the Trump presidency, while most ATRL faves were busy singing about d (not that there's anything wrong with that, i'm just saying) :

 

 

Her entire life and career stands against everything maggots stand for. MAGA ancestors tried their hardest to cancel her 20 years ago. Be SERIOUS people

 

By the way she didn't even technically endorse the Kamala's dad is white fake news. She stated that she has heard about it. "Well you know what they supposedly said?" She asks me. "She's not black. That's what I heard. That she's Indian. That's what I was told. I mean, I haven't watched the news in a few days"

At least she wasn't as assertive as Madonna with the Obama is muslim mess Still very stupid of her to platform it, there's no denying that. Janetors can hold their fave accountable when she is being a moron. Thankfully we very rarely have to do that. Love that for us

 

I'm sure she'll say something about it and will make things right in the coming days. Her brother passed away 7 days ago and she hasn't even posted about it so I'm giving her some grace about her lack of reaction (for now).
