I wrote in a song that i would love to hear from Janet on her tour and I just realized I type the wrong song today. The song I would like to hear is called seventies love on her remix cd. I feel so stupid because I have all of Janet songs and that particular song was a song that I hooked my husband with. So please forgive me for not giving the right name in a earlier email.

Ellen,
I sent you an email about 6 weeks ago about asking Janet to hook me up with an audition as a background singer for her upcoming tour. You had the perfect opportunity on the 19th and you didn't mention it. What happened? My only consolation is that you have to get me tickets for her show please! I live in Indiana but could travel to the Chicagoland area. Some of my favorites are "If", Throb,Pleasure Principle,All Nite, Get it Out Me,
Love Scene-Oooh Baby, What About That, 2nite, and the list goes on. I still want that audition and No I'm not crazy. Come on Ellen hook me up. If I get the audition, I won't need a ticket. I'll be part of the show! Yes I'm that confident !!!
Thanks Ellen,
Mitzi

Hi Ellen and Janet,

I am big fans of both of you. Ellen I Tivo and watch you ever day and Janet, I have been following your career since way back in the Good Times, Different Strokes and Fame days. I am a devoted fan and have seen you on every tour except for Janet. I have all your albums and singles. You are an extradionary artist and performer. I hope to get to see you on tour this summer, doesn't seem like 7 years has gone by since the "Janet" tour. Have a blast this summer!

To Janet, my Daughter Shantell has been a huge fan ever since I can remember, she is 23 yrs old now. I asked her about your request, and she says your selection of any songs are her favorites. I personally would like to thank you for being an inspiration to her life, because when she went through a depression your songs were her escape and she found her true self back. Thank you Janet. Also thanks to Ellen whom I listen to everyday on my TV radio @ work, I am usually laughing from 11:00 to 12:00 while I am trying to do my job. Much love to you both. Peace.

Hey Ellen & Janet,

I have been following Janet since the Control album I was five years old & it was my first cassette tape I ever owned. With every album Janet has evolved into such an icon more & more!! With her not touring since the All For You tour, there is a lot of material that she has to go through to decide as to what she is wanting the world to see live. Janet I truly think you know what works for you & your theme for this tour. Your tours & concepts have always been immaculate & always will be!! With the albums Damita Jo & 20 Y.O. there was no touring & those albums were full of extrememly fantstic tracks!! So please by all means if possible include some of those on this tour. There's over twenty years of material so I know this is going to be a challenge but, you will prevail YOU ALWAYS DO!! I just can't wait till this tour I've been dying ot see you live again since the All For You Tour in Pittsburgh, Pa. One of my dreams since being a child has been to meet & dance with Janet. She has taught me how to dance watching her videos & seeing her live on tour "the hip action alone is AMAZING!!" Janet please don't ever stop you have touched and changed so many lives with your music, acting, great humanitary deeds, and ambition! I will forever be a fan & I will never stop watching, listening, or dancing!!
Sincerely,
J.R. McClelland

I have been a janet fan since Good Times, walking around with a sassy attitude and telling JJ just how it was..lol I'd love to win tickets to see the first concert J!! Whenever your videos are on tv i dance right along with you. Whenever you are close to where I'm from, I'm there at your show to see you, no matter what.

A totally jammin song that I would like to see u perform again is Black Cat. I've noticed other fans posted the same song as well so if you would please consider it.

A janet fan 4 life.

Miss Jackson, each time I watch you on TV I can't seem to forget that sweet child with the infectious smile in her May West dress up..."come on up and see me sometime." Who knew you would grow up to be the beautiful talented woman you have become. I saw you grow up, and now my daughter has become a fan as well. She is the one who has been to your concerts. I've never had the experience to go to any concert, not even one of yours. However that has not stopped this 50-year old from enjoying your music. My favorite is Nasty Girl! To hear you sing "Nasty Girl", the anthem of every woman who wants to bring out the "sexy" she feels inside, of course, could only be a dream come true.

Hi Ellen, Miss Jackson, I buy every janet cd the day it comes out. I have the Velvet Rope tour and the All for you tour on dvd, I enjoy them so much. Janet I went to see you at Hollywood back in 1990 when you got your star on Hollywood. Also a couple years ago when you performed live on the Ryan Seacrest show and most recently I got to see you at the Virgin Mega Store at the in store signing. A couple years ago I got a job at the Western Forum (Inglewood, CA) I ended up working there for a total of 4 years, so I got to see The Velvet Rope tour, then I bought tickets for the next day at the Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim through the friends of janet fan club. That consert was AWESOME!! Another time that I saw you in person was when you went with two friends (Gil and Shanette) to see the N'sync consert. Every one was excited to see N'sync but I was so happy to see you backstage after the consert. Please Ellen I hope I have a chance to win tickets to janet's Rock with you concert. I've always loved her and to me she is better than Madonna, Mariah, Celine and Britney. Janet Jackson is simply the BEST!!
