Anyone remember this? I seem to recall such a rumor back in the day when she briefly appeared on the TV show FAME.

Janet Jackson


Does Janet Jackson have an 18-year-old daughter? If you believe what Young DeBarge said during an appearance on New York City radio station Hot 97?s Morning Show With Miss Jones, the answer might be yes.

On the show Friday morning (October 21), DeBarge said that Jackson had a daughter when she was married to James DeBarge. He claimed on the show that he had a niece, ?Renee,? the ?just-about-18?-year old daughter of James DeBarge and Jackson. Young DeBarge refused to confirm that she also had a 16-year-old son from the same relationship.

TSU/BAMA,

This rumor may or may not be true. I'm not trying to make a moral judgement. But if it is, wouldn't you just out of curiosity like to see how her 18 year old daughter might look? I was a big fan, and about this time she came out with the Control album to rebell against her father. Michael spent like $1million to get Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis to produce it. The idea would be that she hid it to kick start her career. The rumor had the child being raised by her sister or one of her brothers. Remember she did keep her second marriage a secret for many years. We'll see.

My apologies, THAMES, I did not mean to imply that you were being judgmental.But if it is, wouldn't you just out of curiosity like to see how her 18 year old daughter might look?NO!! But then, I have never been a fan of Janet, so...

While it is a rumor, I remember hearing it long ago. I also remember a Janet Jackson who appeared on stage with a group of people for the American Music Awards years ago that could have been preggo.

Who knows? If she does have a child, more power to them. It aint no big deal if she does.
 
Does Tito have a child? Randy? Jermaine? You're right...WHO CARES!?!?!? <a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008_ZS' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/1/1_4_49.gif' alt='Star 5' border=0></a>

Exactly. Mike aint have nothing to do with that. Not from what Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis said on how they got involved with Janet.
 



Why is this topic being discussed more and more.


Does she have a child out there somewhere being raised by Rebe?
 
So somebody "close" has finally come out and said it's true.

That was the "rumor" that came out when her and DeBarge got married in the first place.

They were saying they had a kid/some said they got "rid" of it/she was never pregnant/etc.
That's how she got the "rep" of being able to gain and lose weight with the snap of the hand.

Remember, Janet got big as heck around the time this was going on. She didn't get back to the size she is now till after she left Debarge, (or JOE whipped his arse), and hooked up with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
 
Janet had secret love kid: ex-kin

Janet Jackson's former brother-in-law made a bombshell claim on a hip-hop radio station yesterday - the sexy siren has a secret 18-year-old daughter.

The stunning allegation came from Young DeBarge, whose brother James DeBarge was briefly married to Jackson, now 39, in the 1980s.

During an interview on Hot 97, Young said the busty star and his brother - a former member of another Motown family act - are the parents of "Renee," a daughter sent away in shame to live with the eldest of the famous Jackson siblings, Rebbie.

"James and the Jackson family kept everything real close, real tight," Young DeBarge said. "No one really knew how it was working out until things kind of surfaced."

Janet Jackson's rep Patti Webster didn't deny the claim yesterday, only saying the singer didn't wish to comment. And the young woman is not happy about her star mom's refusal to acknowledge her, the uncle said.

"I think there's a little despondence," DeBarge said when asked about Renee's feelings for Jackson.

"She hasn't really revealed that, but I'm sure that there's some feelings there. It's only natural that you wonder about what is and how it's come to be that way."

Jackson was just 18 when she and James DeBarge hooked up in 1984. Their marriage was annulled the next year.

The couple eloped amid family furor over their relationship, but the marriage was annulled in March, 1985., with DeBarge's drug habit cited as the reason for the split.

SS, I be trying to tell them rich women to get a broke mofo like me. See I ain?t got no choice but to cater to your needs. A rich mofo got thousands of women after him and his money. A broke ninja like myself will run your water, bathe you, massage you, talk to you and ask how what?s on your mind. Cook for you and lay the smack down on you 2 to 3 times a day. Then when you wake up in the morning I?ll be ready to start over again. All I want is some spending change and a nice ride. I?ll do all this because I understand ain?t nothing in life free. She want ever have to worry about me leaving because I?ll be there everyday all day.

Forreal Doe.
Ni99a trying to get his 15 miuntes of fame.
 
This girl looks very much like she could be JJ's daughter and w/her Rep issuing a no comment from her, her tendency to try to keep other normal things secret (marriages, etc.) I believe this is legit. It's sad that she felt she had to hide her kid away....for 18 YEARS! :shame:
 
:nod: SONNY, damn shame, ain't it?

I concur, FAB5. :tup:

CEE DOG, I didn't know you had it like that, playa. :lol:
