You may remember never seeing any of Janet’s videos on MTV during the promotion of her last album, 20 Y.O., but apparently, MTV has added the video for her new single, “Feedback” to it’s video playlist.
The video for “Feedback,” premiered last week on BET’s 106 & Park and Yahoo! Music, and will debut on TRL on Monday, according to TRL’s schedule. Interestingly enough, Janet’s second single, “So Excited” was added to the list of videos for play on MTV, but only saw air time on MTV2 and MTVJams.
Back in 2004, Janet and Justin Timberlake teamed with the NFL, CBS, and MTV for the halftime performance of the Super Bowl XXXVIII. During the performance, there was a wardrobe malfunction and Janet was brutally ridiculed for the display. Coincidentally, this was just days before Janet’s lead single from 2004′s Damita Jo, “Just A Little While” was rushed and leaked. The whole thing was a big mess and from then on, Janet’s relationship with MTV has never been the same.
Hopefully, with the debut of “Feedback” on TRL and the release of the new album, Discipline, due out February 26th, Janet and MTV can rebuild their burned bridge.
janet is a legend so with or without mtv that title can’t be taken from her and like someone said before mtv doesn’t even really play videos anymore
