Janet talks about Jackson 5 reunion, US presidential election
During a recent interview with Agence France-Presse, Janet spoke about her hopes for a possible Jackson 5 reunion and also said that she is undecided between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama in the upcoming US presidential election.
When asked whether the Jackson 5 was going to reunite, Janet told AFP, "I hope so. I really hope so because I'll be the first in line to buy a ticket. I do know that my brothers want to and I know it's been kind of tough for Mike. He's kind of on the fence, from what I know about it."
She continued, "Maybe he just wants to continue to be a solo artist and if that's what he wants then you have to respect his wishes. But what an impact it would have on the world and he has to see that because everyone else does.
"I think he'd have to be blind not to see that," she added.
In also what is presumably the same interview, Janet told AFP that she excited about both Clinton and Obama running for president. "They're both really exciting. That's difficult for someone like me, having someone African-American and also having a woman," she said.
When asked if she would be excited by the prospect of having an African-American president, she said "of course that would be exciting."
"But it would also be exciting to have a woman in office as well," she added. "That's why we should have two presidents."
