Stunning New Janet Photos

Posted Feb 5th 2006 10:35AM by TMZ Staff

New photos make it stunningly clear -- Janet Jackson's Super Bowl reveal two years ago has taken its toll.

The 39-year-old singer, it seems, has doubled in size since her infamous half-time disaster.

Since the incident, Jackson's career has stalled and she's clearly taken comfort in food. Estimates are that Jackson's weight now approaches 200 pounds.

Psychotherapist Stacy Kaiser says "a high level of level of humiliation can send a person into a tailspin." Kaiser says Jackson, who has had issues with food throughout her childhood, "automatically gravitates to food during stressful situations."

Kaiser believes Jackson has not yet come to terms with that fateful Super Bowl Sunday. "She needs to forgive herself."

1. Janet has had the most amazing abs for a long time now, my question is, every time she gains weight, how does she get her abs back so soon.

2. Hey Paige--

Once a person develops or tones their muscles, the muscles are still there, albeit covered in layers of fat and some water retention. Janet always kept good muscle tone. The fact is (and this is true with any one who has problems with KEEPING/MAINTAINING a work out routine) without maintaining CARDIO excercises (and some weight lifting/resistance) the fat and weight gain quickly catches up! Once Janet drops the fat and water retention, the toned muscles show up again.

And that's it!

3. It's really unhealthy for a person to constantly lose and gain weight so much. I was told du to my experience that when you do that, your tend to interviene with your organs. It really wears and tears on your heart big time. So she needs to be very careful.....

4. The many cycles of weight gain and loss, check me on this, but isn't this what killed Luther Vandross? His organs gave out on him due to physical exhaustion, exacerbated by the demands of his singing career.

I wish Janet the best for her happiness and health. There's no need to be physically perfect. Settle on a comfortable middle healthy point. AND STAY THERE.

I gotta get back to eeting my Moon Pie, Klondike Bar, and 44oz Cheery Coke. Yumm.
