Janet Jackson - News

European tour cancelled !

20-06-2008 16:41 | 0 reaction(s) | add reaction | add news
Island Def Jam doesn't want to promote Janet Jackson's new album Discipline anymore. The album was released in February & sold 392,000 copies, only in the States... The singer decided to cancel her European tour.

We can't say that Janet Jackson's come-back has arrived yet ! Only 392,000 copies of her new album Discipline sold in the States. In France, it was even worse : 5 weeks in French charts, best place was N°43. We're far from her albums The Velvet Rope (N°5 in 1997) & All For You (N°2 in 2001).

Following the disappointing sales, Janet Jackson's label, Island Def Jam, announced that it couldn't promote Discipline anymore. "We respect the artist's work, but we are obliged to stop the promotion. The results were far from what we expected" her label said.

"Together Again" singer is very shocked, disappointed & very angry. She thinks that Island Def Jam did the minimum to promote her new album, forcing her to promote "Luv" as the third single from her album (after "Feedback" & "Rock With U"), whereas she doesn't like this song. She just decided to stop too, because of her label's lack of confidence, & cancelled her European tour.

Island Def Jam spokesman said that the label has no link with her tour, "Rockwitchu Tour", which should start on September 7. To be continued...
