Janet Regrets Apology for 'Wardrobe Malfunction'

wardrobe malfunctionIt has been over two and half years since Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake had their infamous 'wardrobe malfunction' at the 2004 Super Bowl and for the first time Janet is speaking out about it to Oprah Winfrey.

During an episode of "The Oprah Winfrey Show," to air on September 25, the singer has now said she regretted saying sorry because it made her look guilty for something that was an accident.

She also hinted at dissension between her and Mr. Timberlake during the interview, saying she has not spoken with Justin since their performance on February 1, 2004. When Winfrey asked if she felt betrayed, Jackson would not answer directly, but said cryptically, "Loyalty comes first to me."

16. Janet should have thought that with the act of ripping off a piece of clothing material from her breast could have caused the possibility of a malfunction, so why did she risk that? My theory on her shocked reaction: she could have been "acting" shocked; she does have acting experience, and to act shocked is not a difficult thing. And Janet or Justin are not moral role models, so they lie too. Also, the way Justin was behaving right after the incident, made me suspicious as well. But the main point is that type of act is inappropriate for family tv time, malfunction or not.

17. @cy: it's about time some one broke it down for these ignorant people. just about everything you see on TV is being "VIEWERS DISCRETION ADVISE" . The only FAMILY TV you're gonna see is THE DISNEY CHANNEL. all those reality programs are out of control too!!

18. She should be sorry. She knew it was going to happen. She also knew that there would be kids watching and she let it happen anyway.

19. Whether the move was accidental or intentional, there's no need for childish name-calling. Name-calling is not a "family value."

Only Janet and Justin know what really happened. So all perceptions, theories and guessing games are pointless.

21. cj, ok, penises are part of the body too, how about if Justin would have had a malfunction in his crotch, you think you or others would feel the same? Changing the channel for this event made no diference, it happended without warning. Even if a kid saw her breast for a few seconds, it could have triggered ideas and emotions they may not be ready to learn. You wouldn't mind if your small children see private body parts exposed on television? Condoms comercials, period commercials, etc, what a cheap justification...

22. phlebotomyqueen---grow up.
Janet is completely full of sh*t.
Yeah, she's so demure-that's why 80% of her photos have her boobs prominently displayed. That is why she talks openly about her sex life and the fact that she has a tattoo on her girly bits of Minnie Mouse giving Mickey head.
I like Janet, but she knew EXACTLY what she was doing that night. She got the buzz she wanted--she was however probably surprised by how it backfired and bit her in the ass.

23. Bull s*&t!!!

I remember someone interviewing her ........pre......superbowl......and they asked her what her show would be like and all she said was:

I'm sorry but a corset doesn't just rip off like that! It was coreographed!!!!!!

24. There is alot of sex, breast and butt on TV now it's scary.
Don't blame them, lets blame America TV for all this sex, breast and butt on
TV. The finger you point, is pointing back at you. STOP ALL THE SEX
ON TV. This may help our crime in America too. Our Whitehouse
was so ready to impeach Clinton for his blow job, but we cannot
control all this SEX on TV. What is this world coming to? We need
to fear God's wrath and change our ways. God Bless Us!

25. She's the reason why this country has gone ape-sh*t over the very utterance of the word "nipple". She's the reason why TV stations are afraid to air movies like "Saving Private Ryan", because they fear the wrath of the FCC.
She should be apologizing for the rest of her life if you ask me.

26. What do you expect she is trash. She is as crazy as the rest of her family. I am disappointed because I thought that she was the normal one. I guess I was wrong. She has turned into pure TRASH!

27. Michelle - are you ok. Come on that was no accident - Please. Lets be real for a minute. She was acting like it was an accident, but it was no accident at all. She planned that. That ugly thing she had on her boob was there for a reason. She wanted people to see it. When it backfired then it magicly became an accident. Because people were repulsed by her disgusting boob. She came up with an excues. Be assured that there is no excuse for a NASTY boob being flashed for the world to see. She is just plain GROSS!

28. I could be wrong, but whose song was it with the lyric "Gonna have you naked by the end of this song" that was playing at the time? Justin Timberpunk is just as guilty of this stunt, but nobody is calling him names. At least be balanced about this incident. He's not some innocent bystander in this.

30. Nobody just has a nipple-twist device on at random unless you plan on revealing it. She must think we're stupid. Well, she's right, based on the dummies posting on here -- in fact, her whole family must think we're stupid enough to fall for their antics: we let child molesters free (her brother) and we give her our attention (by dignifying her interviews and opinions). We're sucker enough even to think she actually meant that apology -- it was total PR spinning so that she doesnt fall from the public's grace.

She's one freak that needs to fall off the plan -- her AND her deranged family. Hey Janet, take Beyonce and her family with too!!!
