THE ROUND UP: JANET INTERVIEW GOES BAD / COREY HARRIS GETS GENIUS GRANT / ‘DO OR DIE’ RAPPER GETS PRISON TIME
Friday, October 12, 2007
Check out this video of Janet Jackson & Tyler Perry on a show yesterday morning. The interviewers tried to be slick and get in a question about Janet’s Superbowl incident, but Tyler wasn’t having it. [ SHOUT OUT TO LOVE B. SCOTT ]
COREY HARRIS GETS $500,000

Blues & Reggae singer, songwriter, and guitarist Corey Harris received the prestigious “Genius Grant’ recently. The MacArthur Fellowship gives a five-year grant to anyone showing “exceptional creativity in their work.” Harris received $500,000 from the organization, no strings attached. Click here to listen to him talking about his award.
‘DO OR DIE’ RAPPER GETS PRISON TIME

Darnell Smith, 35, who goes by the name “Belo,” is one-third of Do or Die, a pioneering hip-hop group from the West Side best known for its breakthrough single “Po Pimp” from its 1996 platinum album “PictureThis.” The group has sold more than three million albums.
Belo pleaded guilty Thursday to second-degree murder for the November 2002 shooting death of Raynard “B-Dog” Pinkston. Under a plea deal, Smith will receive a 10-year sentence.
“I think it’s a good outcome, and I thank God for it,” said Pinkston’s brother D’Angelo Dixon. “I’m glad that guy got 10 years.” [ READ MORE ]

Why the hell dont they ask JUSTIN if he plans on pulling someone elses outfit off. They act like she was on stage and pulled if off herself. These people are such loosers.

If you listen you’ll hear TP say that they were ready because they were warned that something stupid might come up before the interview. Bet they planned to counterattack with TP handling the situation and taking the conversation back to the movie in advance because after all the interview was supposed to be about the movie. Heard this guy is a real asshole and he clowns everyone. They all looked ignorant and unprofessional!

I emailed the website also but I am sure it is not as articulate as the ones you sent out. I basically told them, in my special way, that they need to stay on topic when they are doing interviews.

I hate to say this, but all this Super Bowl relay about Janet from these stick-in-da-ass fcc folk is exactly why she hasn’t been on top for 4 years. They said that the incident would scar her career, and sadly it came true. Do like it-SHIT NO. Is it fair?- no it is not. But it is harsh reality. Justin takes no criticism, gets to continue his career, doesn’t try to help her while she tries to climb her way back up from all this. Which is why I almost hate the guy till this day, and I don’t believe he deserves to make another million in this industry. Yes those anchorpeople are jerks, and they should be fined for that smart ass comment.

I’m glad TP defended her honor because some people out there still think that black men will not do that for black women.
You could tell when the guy was going to say something stupid-he put his head down and was grinning before he asked about the Superbowl.

I wrote a brief e-mail to the station- before I read the passage from #116…maybe should have proof read mine:) Anyways, this is what I wrote and I encourage you all to pass that clip to others and have them complain to the station as well.We need to start taking a stand against the blatant disrepect of our culture. This was more than nipplegate-they just did not find Tyler Perry’s movie interesting enough, so they went on to the more famous face and f*cked with her for ratings.
I don’t watch your channel, but I did see the “Janet Jackson Interview Goes Bad” and it was conducted beyond unprofessionally. To ignore the whole reason they were on there in the first place and focus on an incident that happen over three years ago,shows your station’s lack of interest and respect for the African-American culture. I guess because the movie is about professional blacks who are not fitting the media’s stereotypes of us, it was not important enough to discuss. I am glad that Mr. Tyler Perry is a better person than myself, because I would have told those smug assholes a thing or two about themselves. I would NEVER watch your station and will encourage others to follow suit. Your station’s ignorance will not be supported amongst African-Americans.

That was utterly rediculous! Tyler handled it so well. Very unfortunate to be treated with such disrespect. The shows producers gave them the ok to take a cheap shot at Janet because of the money they supposedly lost. LMAO at them. Hurray for Tyler and Janet. Keep promoting that movie. Tyler has more talent and money than all three of those people twenty times over so they can go suck eggs.

Janet has already said she doesn’t and will not ever talk about it ever again. That is why she stayed silent. She is keeping true to her word.
If ya’ll wanna see Janet get buck and not act like ‘a little girl’ watch that footage of her, Michael and their mother in the limousine in Santa Maria (the population is full of redneck racists and barely any black people live there) back in 2003 when fans, who were out there to support Michael, were being PHYSICALLY hurt and mistreated (in any way possible) in front of them. Janet was seriously about to kill someone, I was scared my damn self. Her facial expression mean mug was doing crazy things. She was cussin’ and Michael had to push her back into the car and help Katherine stay away, than HE started cussin’ the police officers out. You can’t hear what they’re saying, but I’m telling you, watching it was enough to get it, lol.
I don’t think many people know about or realize what happened to them [black fans especially] what they had to endure who came out to support Michael and the family. Like I said before, there are virtually no black people in Santa Monica etc., so the black folks that were there were coming from other places. Thats why when you hear people say ‘oh, you didn’t see that many black people at the trial’ is not true.
It used to be on YouTube but I can’t find it anymore.

I hope that a public apology will air on Monday. Those clowns who call themselves journalist, treated Tyler and Janet as though they were living on a plantation. I hope everyone that post on this site, write the station and demand an apology, enough is enough. Tyler and Janet are professionals, can’t say the same for the news crew.
I saw the movie and it was great!!!!!!!!!!!!!Tickets in Brooklyn New York were sold out. Keep up the good work my black people.

That is so screwed. Now you know if that had been Charlize Theron or Julia Roberts, that question would have never been asked. See, black people think it’s all good, racism is dead… you still just another black ho, they’ve just found better ways to disguise their racism…
That was so tasteless and trashy.

Were they really interested in that movie? I don’t think so. I don’t blame Janet for not answering - she was caught off guard about something that was irrelevant to what she was there to talk about. I’m glad Tyler stepped in. If it were me I would have ended that interview.

White folks outta control. See, Tyler would have been wrong if he would have gotten straight niggarific. But I’m glad he didn’t because they would have tried to flip the script about him being the “typical irate black person”. Kudos to Tyler. That goes to show white folks are straight monkeys.

That was so ignorant how they treated her. If they wer their to talk about the movie then let it be about the movie. “It really did affect us we work at CBS dont nobody give a fuck about waht affected them” and you re point for being rude was that come with somethnig better.Yall just wanted to be someass holes MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! I loved how Tyler Perry handle them get’em Tyler. I cant believe that that Do or Die dude is about to go to jail. I reallly like their songs like “Do U” “Do U Wanna ride” and Money flow its tooo bad he really took it too far

I truly believe he asked that irrelevant and unprofessional question to try to taint the success of this movie by knowing the crap that they were saying would make it to You Tube. I hope Tyler’s movie makes it to #1.
Notice how the racist pricks tired to justify the bringing it up saying they are on a CBS station and were affected by it. Total bull. They acted like money came out their own paychecks. She was one of the one they had to pay six figures in fines. Janet was affected the hardest and still is. I can’t believe people are still trying tear her down over this, but yet none of it affects Justin. I bet if those news anchors actually interviewed Justin instead of her, they wouldn’t have said a word.
Lord forgive me, but I hate white people sometimes.

That news anchor is just trying to get a job on some B rated gossip news show. He’s harsh, insensetive, judgemental and is in bad need of a hair stylist! Ms. J would do him justice with his posture as well…he looked weak and just like a snake while asking the questions. Janet maintained her composure, that’s for sure. Tyler should’ve said, “Although we were warned you might “go there” still we’d expected a more classy execution!”
